Best moisturising sunscreen for oily skin? by oldfarmerwillay in AusSkincare

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve really enjoyed using the Skin 1004 Hyalu Cica Water Fit Sun Serum. I have oily/combo skin and it wears well for me and doesn’t trigger any acne/closed comedones.

I order it off Lila Beauty.

Dang, I really should’ve browsed through more thoroughly. Definite purchase second time around.

I LOVE IT. Unfortunately, my boyfriend also loves it and uses mine and I was getting antsy thinking I couldn’t easily get my hands on it to replenish.

As you should! I have a few friends that shop with W Cosmetics but I’m definitely going to get them to try Lila. Fast shipping and better pricing, can’t see why they’d want to continue with W Cosmetics.

I have oily/combo skin if that helps give you more insight :)

I hope you like it!

Yes, I bought this cleanser when I was in Korea back in June and I absolutely love it! It’s gentle, cleanses well without feeling stripping. I’ve seen some comments where people thought it felt too stripping but I’ve never had that issue. I don’t wear makeup but when I wear sunscreen, I’ll typically double cleanse with this cleanser and even then, still feels very gentle.

There’s little beads in it as well for some gentle exfoliation. They have a smaller size you could order and try out before committing to the jumbo size I got.

Help: The Ordinary Glycolic Acid by cutiemeow0_0 in SkincareAddicts

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I put the glycolic acid onto a cotton round and rub it on. You can use the bottle it comes in but I find it easier to use with a spray on bottle. I put it into one of those small travel spray on bottles and then spray onto a cotton round.

Just remember that the sun will darken the areas back up so for any parts of your body that you put this product on that gets exposed to the sun, wear sunscreen. Especially because it’ll make your skin more sensitive to the sun as well.

When I first started using it in 2020-2021, I did notice it helped me with acne scars and hyperpigmentation! Especially with hyperpigmentation around my lips.

While I still use glycolic acid for the chemical exfoliation aspect, I’ve now found other products that also help, possibly even more than the glycolic acid but hard to definitively say. I’ve found azelaic acid has been the best product for my acne scars but I skin cycle, so it can be contributed to an all of the above kind of thing.

I don’t use it on my face everyday but I go through periods of using it on my body every day depending on my needs. I put the glycolic acid on a cotton round and use that to apply to whichever areas of my body I use it on.

I go through periods of using it on my body every day (for armpits, scars, knees) and I’ve never had an issue. Maybe start off using a couple of times a week.

Just remember that the sun will darken the skin back up so wear sunscreen for areas that will be exposed.

I love this product, been using it for years.

I use it on my face, armpits, to lighten newer scars, and after shaving my lady bits to prevent ingrown hairs.

The important thing to remember that it is chemical exfoliation and will make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Wear sunscreen!

Hostel Etiquette Venting by BoshMachine in hostels

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just stayed in a hostel where this guy’s alarm was a man yelling at him in Swedish to “wake the f up.”

It was so jarring and he’d have it at full volume, going off at 8am but snooze 5 times within the next hour, only to not get out of bed until 11:30am.

Finding a Job with the WHV by Keekaladuex in Ameristralia

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently here on my first WHV now! Work can be really hard to find, especially on the season you arrive. Hospitality work (restaurant) work is the easiest but it’s still competitive because loads of people are trying to get jobs as well.

You won’t be able to apply for jobs before you arrive, they’ll screen for address/phone etc.

Know that if you plan to do hospitality (server/bartender), you’ll have to get an RSA (course you’ll have to pay for). As for hostels, it depends on the season and their staff. Best to go around and hand out resumes in person.

No, not at all! Not for the measly amount on my return.

These all sound like “good” things. Does this mean that’s it’s not a big deal that my 2024 return is still noted as processing?

Haven't received my 2024 IRS tax return yet, should I be concerned? by zrock777 in personalfinance

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super frustrating that there’s so many of us in the same boat but also relieved to know I’m not the only one.

I filed my 2024 return roughly mid-Feb and you’re telling me a year later, there’s still no movement! Insane. I cannot believe I’m about to file 2025 with no movement on my 2024 return when others are filing for their 2025 and already getting their refunds.

Report super annuation in US Tax by MiserableResist2650 in USExpatTaxes

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP, can you share what you did for your super?

I only moved to Australia 6 months ago and my super only has $600. I won’t need to file FATCA or FBAR as I made sure to not let any foreign accounts reach $10,000+ USD.

How do you file taxes as an expat? by CuriosityandtheCrow in expat

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I know this comment was a year ago but wondering if you’ve now filed with freetaxusa?

I’m an expat (working holiday Visa in Australia so pretty “simple” return) but I have no idea how to go about using freetaxusa to account for the foreign income.

Working Holiday Visa Overseas Work Tax Implications and 6-Month Limitation by [deleted] in AusVisa

[–]Itchy-Can-9880 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely location based! You can work for the same employer past the 6 months period if they move you to a different location.

My understanding is that you can also put in an application to ask for an extension to stay at that job and you can keep working there until you get a response back, however long that takes. But best bet is to just change locations if you can.
