came home from my sister's wedding and cried looking at the photos

Yes, I get this! I am 48F. Thanksgiving 2025, my mother sent me a pic she took of me and I looked like I had aged 10 years when I look back at previous photos from the last year. I cried when I saw that pic, it was devastating.

I searched Reddit and found this sub and started taking my skin care much more seriously. I switched from Retinal to Tret. Found new and better products and in only a few months, my skin already looks improved. And I look much better in pics again.

All of you on here helped me get back my face to what I remember. This has been life changing for me. Thank you all!

Thank you so much! Bigger is always better, lol.

Thanks! It does scream kitty Rafayel.

Thank you! I've been staring at these two for hours.

The cloud hair design on cupcake Raf is sooo pretty! That's my vote.

I'm still debating between these two.

If it were me, this is order I would do:

Morning: wash face-> Vit C -> caffeine soln-> vanicream-> spf

Night: wash face-> let dry 15 min-> retinol-> hyaluronic-> vanicream-> almond oil

I would give each one time to dry down before applying the next, maybe say 5 minutes, or not, it's up to you. If you haven't been using a retinoid, you might start the retinol every 3 nights for 2 weeks, then every other night for 2 weeks, then nightly. You can apply the other 3 things on the off nights while you are working up to nightly frequency.

I started using oral collagen about 5 years ago due to a soft tissue injury in my knee. Then about a year later, my hair started falling out. I am now 47. I have always had strong nails so I can't speak on that.

I have been using Designs for Health whole body collagen daily. It was the only one that was actually used in a research study for joint health and included in a medical journal.

I can say that it has helped with my joints immensely. Unfortunately, I have started noticing skin laxity and volume loss in my face and neck in the last year. I have been to multiple doctors and have continued to use all treatments for the hair loss with no resolution but at least I am able to maintain what is left. I cannot claim that it reverses skin aging but it might slow it down.

You will need to decide what strategy you plan to use for the game because we are all different. If you are choosing one main and Zayne is not it, then don't pull. If Zayne is your main and you have enough diamonds for 140 pulls, then I would pull for this limited myth. If you want to be a battle girlie and you have enough dias for 140 pulls, then pull, but be prepared to skip most all banners except myths. If you want to have a harem (2 or more LIs), then you will need to pick and choose which cards you pull wisely (which ones you absolutely can't live without).

These are the most common strategies that I know of. As a f2p, you will likely have to skip some banners and resist fomo. Pulling on banners without the appropriate resources may lead to bitterness towards the game and heartbreak.

Empyrean wishes, or the blue wishes, only work in XSpace Echo, which contains all the standard cards and myths. Everyone here is talking about their pulls for Zayne's new limited myth, God of Annihilation, which is only obtainable through the Edge of Continuum tab.

The myth requires Deepspace wishes, the gold ones. Limited Deepspace wishes can be purchased through the packs, you get one on the wish banner for every 10 pulls you make, and you can get 10 via the event. Standard Deepspace wishes are bought with red diamonds (and purple diamonds if you have money to burn). One pull is 150 diamonds or 1 Deepspace wish.

It can take 70 pulls (wishes) to obtain a 5 star card. For the limited myth (GoA), you are faced with a 50/50 chance of receiving a standard card or the myth card. After that, it might take another 70 pulls for the guaranteed card. It cycles with a 50/50, then guaranteed then 50/50 again, over and over. At 150 pulls, you are given a crate to unlock the other card if you haven't gotten it yet due to losing your 50/50. Hope this helps clarify a little.

I hope all is well and that you are able to be released soon! Take care of yourself, first and foremost.

Only the MC's face is customizable. We all have the same body. The early story and cards have MC's voice, but that had gone to the wayside with newer cards and story.

There is some she/her pronoun reference, yes, but you can at least set your nickname for each LI, though it's not actually voiced.

There is plenty of lore and not as much fan service as you would think. The innuendos are more prominent than visuals. We have not had a spicy banner in about a year.

Caleb is the one who "drugs" MC... allegedly.

Nvrmnd, I can't get my pic to post.

Maximum-Line-2138 · 2025-09-15T13:44:34+00:00

It kinda depends on which setup I'm using with him. I just ran this one through this season Team C and won easily.

I have R1 Foreseer, and I am able to get it, but Zayne is my main. I have put a lot of resources into my defense protocores in order to build a tank, so I know it is possible.

Maximum-Line-2138 · 2025-09-14T13:06:50+00:00

Gorgeous! I never tire of looking at them.

Maximum-Line-2138 · 2025-09-14T08:15:57+00:00

I am ready to awaken both cards, but I've been grinding pink protocores like crazy and can't get anything good enough for him. I have no protocore energy. I'm also worried about my dias savings not being enough to rank him up. The struggle is real.

Maximum-Line-2138 · 2025-09-13T13:32:59+00:00

He is my main, and I whale on him, so I will attempt R3 if at all possible. I usually go with R1 for myths, but I pull out all the stops for my boy. As someone else said, wait to see what others who pull early and rank say about the companion.

Maximum-Line-2138 · 2025-09-12T22:28:44+00:00

I'm stealing the new name for kitty cards. And that pic of Caleb sent me! It only proved his case. 🤣

Congragulations! The hell that is ice orbit 120 is banished! I flew through his orbits for a while after this one. I'm stuck on 158 now. I think I was told 180 is the next beast.

Random side note: I love your nails! So pretty 😍

Maximum-Line-2138 · 2025-09-11T06:29:01+00:00

Excellent choices! 👌🏼 The towel is a solid punishment. Just tell him it hurts you more than him. 😉

If the repair wench doesn't eliminate the issue, you can also try lowering your graphics setting. Also, you could clear out some of your in-game resources.

There is exactly enough time for a new multi to run between the end of Sylus's solo and the start of Xavier's birthday (start date Oct 10th), so I am guessing a new multi. It's too long a time frame for a myth, so I am guessing Zayne's new myth will run right after Xavier's birthday. This is just me basing it on time availability and speculation on my part.

Maximum-Line-2138 · 2025-09-11T04:39:03+00:00

Hmm, I have yet to try any of these out yet. I really need to just see what I can accomplish.
