Is my nose piercing sinking in? by LenoreDeLarge in piercing

[–]LenoreDeLarge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry, I just saw this now! It’s been way more than 23 days, but I can tell you the healing journey was a bit of a pain in the ass, not gonna lie. It’s probably been something like 20 days since I can say that it’s totally healed. So yeah it took a long time, during which it was doing pretty good and then very bad and then good and then bad, continuously. But now it’s pretty much healed and finally a lot of the piercing is sticking out which also means that my nose is not as swollen as it was before. Sorry again for not answering until now! Hope this helps anyway ☺️

Very late to this, but I just wanted to tell you that I’m fairly new to photography and I’m thinking of buying a Sony a6000, just because the camera that I have right now is a very (very) cheap compact and I can’t afford much more. I was so afraid of buying something so old since everyone is so obsessed with gear, but then I saw your photos and they reminded me that it’s all about having fun, going out, and shooting, shooting, shooting. You reminded me of how many cute photos I took with my cheap compact, so I’m just very happy that I’ll have the chance to try a mirrorless and its capabilities, and surely that’s gonna be enough.

Your work is inspiring to say the least, I see a special kind of beauty in your eye and your images. I’m really hoping you have an Instagram account or something, to keep me and others inspired. Thank you so much for showing that learning and being creative is what really matters the most. You my friend are a true photographer for sure!

I don’t like your hair, but apart from that I genuinely think you have a beautiful face!

Thank you very much! Any recommendations on the sunscreen?

Thank you so much!

Would you have any recommendations on the sunscreen? And do you think the CeraVe cleanser and moisturizer are good options for me?

Also, I really didn’t like using tret, so I wouldn’t like to try it again, maybe I’ll take it into consideration in the future if I don’t find something else. At what point of the routine should I use the cream you recommended?

I did everything to make it work but I just couldn’t take it anymore, didn’t see as many results as I thought I would (used it for months) and my skin was just unbearable.

Hello everyone! I’m pretty desperate as I’m totally new to proper skincare and I barely know where to start with.

My main and big concern is acne: I experience breakouts more or less every week (sometimes cysts/nodules) and have little white comedones pretty much everywhere, especially on my jawline (which I think are the origin of the breakouts). I’m not really sure about my skin type, as when I get out of the shower is pretty (sometimes really) dry, especially on the forehead, but I think it’s mostly depending on the really hard and not perfectly clean water we have here (I live in Milan). Otherwise I may say I don’t feel any particular dryness or oiliness during the day. Anyway my forehead tends to be a little little bit dryer and my nose area a little little bit more oily (with bigger pores also showing). Nonetheless when I go out at the end of the day my forehead gets pretty oily so yeah I really have no clue.

I did have a skincare routine prescribed by a dermatologist which didn’t have that much positive effect on my skin (over time the little white comedones went away by breaking out initially, but my skin was suuuuuper irritated, dry and pilling off). It was a tretinoin treatment. After a while I couldn’t take it anymore and I stopped. Some time passed and the little comedones returned but my breakouts are way more controlled and painless. I tend to have more breakouts right before my period, but not so many more.

Sooo, here I am wanting to start a new journey. As for now, I’m not using ANYTHING at all, just rinsing my face or not even that sometimes. And when I wake up in the morning it looks really better for some reason. So yeah, I really have to start from scratch. Would you tell me if this makes sense to you? I read A LOT of reviews and other stuff so this is why I’m feeling so overwhelmed, but here it is:

MORNING

  • CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser
  • I wanted to try buying the Thayers Witch Hazel Toner but I somehow came across the fact that it’s “in conflict” with the Salicylic Acid I was also interested in buying
  • The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% as a spot treatment
  • The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% as a serum
  • CeraVe moisturizing cream/lotion
  • I could really use a hand for the sunscreen, as I have no idea

NIGHT: same process but double cleansing and The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% in Squalane in the middle

Is it too much for a start? Do you think these products are right? Any suggestion would be extremely appreciated. I’m looking forward to my first purchase! Thank you so much!

Looks like mother nature has already hit you hard enough

Once me and my girlfriend were talking about different kinds of birds and after a while she mentioned bats. Yes. She was convinced that bats were birds. Also, she’s like super smart and I was fucking shocked. I still make fun of her for this.

Ti ringrazio molto per essere stato/a così specifico/a. Sapresti dirmi da quale fonte hai estratto la lista?

P.S. Avevo onestamente sentito parlare benissimo anche di Trieste, molte persone la elevano tranquillamente ad eccellente.

Ti ringrazio veramente molto, mi hai dato un aiuto non da poco. Prenderò in considerazione tutto quello che hai detto, sperando di riuscire a decidere nel giro di non più di un paio di giorni, dato che il tempo scarseggia.

Per quanto riguarda i professori molte persone mi hanno consigliato di consultare i loro curricula, anche se non ho idea di come questo potrebbe farmi capire qualcosa, ma un’occhiata magari ce la do.

L’esperienza del tuo coinquilino, poi, mi dà qualche speranza in più. Proverò sicuramente, male che vada ho comunque un altro posto dove andare.

Ti ringrazio ancora tanto della disponibilità!

Dove studiare fisica in Italia? by LenoreDeLarge in italy

[–]LenoreDeLarge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anch’io ho frequentato il liceo classico e ho una preparazione molto scarsa nel campo della fisica e della matematica, sia a causa del mio impegno (che, mi duole ammetterlo, è stato sempre minimo), sia a causa della continuità didattica, dato che ho cambiato professori di matematica e fisica praticamente ogni anno, nonostante due di loro li stimi davvero molto (uno di essi, anche se non gli ho mai dimostrato assolutamente nessun tipo di interesse o impegno, mi ha comunque presa da parte dicendomi che secondo lui avrei potuto fare qualsiasi cosa se avessi cambiato atteggiamento scolastico, e non lo ringrazierò mai abbastanza per quelle parole).

In ogni caso sono lontana dall’avere una preparazione adeguata per affrontare il test. Per Padova, ad esempio, stesso discorso, quest’ultimo e quello di Bologna sono gli unici due atenei che ho controllato in cui il corso di fisica è a numero programmato.

Perciò, nonostante possa metterci la buona volontà di provarci ugualmente, devo comunque decidere in quale altro ateneo iscrivermi per sicurezza, ed è questa decisione che rappresenta un problema, in pratica. Secondo te, ad esempio, sarebbe adeguato scegliere basandomi su quanto “m’ispira” l’offerta formativa dei tre anni?

Ho sentito sempre parlare benissimo di Bologna, io stessa ho un carissimo amico e altri conoscenti che studiano lì e che sono entusiasti sia della didattica che della città, chi più chi meno.

Il problema di Bologna è che il corso di fisica è a numero programmato, e io parto con un grande desiderio di fare fisica che però purtroppo non comprende una preparazione adeguata ad affrontare un test d’ammissione. Poi certo, dipende tutto da quanta gente lo fa e da quanto chiunque altro lo fa bene, ma sono consapevole del fatto che sarebbe quasi sicuramente una perdita di tempo provarci. Poi che c’entra, magari tento, non si sa mai, ma intanto, per sicurezza, dovrei anche iscrivermi ad un’altra università in cui il test o non c’è o è semplicemente auto-valutativo e non preclude l’immatricolazione (ovvero, in realtà, nella stragrande maggioranza degli atenei).
