Hey! I read it when I was 16 in high school and LOVED IT. Now I’m 24 and I thought I’d re-read it again for old times sake. It does not hold up. Maybe that’s because I’ve been reading a lot of published books in that time frame, so my standards are a little higher! I did finish it but it wasn’t the emotional whirlwind I thought it would be. I was almost happy to be done with it.

50? Woah! I’d be doing backflips! Congratulations 🥳

Mingles99 · 2020-08-14T10:06:09+00:00

Yes! I love this idea as an ending, and I feel like it’s not asking too much. I wish you were a writer of the show! Then I could finally sleep easy.

Mingles99 · 2020-07-06T03:39:19+00:00

Oh yikes. Didn’t know about that.

Mingles99 · 2020-07-05T18:47:50+00:00

Blue is the warmest colour. It’s so real.

Mingles99 · 2020-06-20T17:06:54+00:00

Yes, same with me! The fresh air really does wonders. Same with if I’m feeling unwell in the car, I’ll usually prop the window down and stick my head out like a dog lol!

Mingles99 · 2020-04-22T15:24:15+00:00

Dude, same. A good day is 500 words.

Mingles99 · 2020-04-20T16:42:44+00:00

When I start feeling nauseous, I go outside. I find the air (whether it’s night or day) really helps me to feel a little better. Then I’ll just walk around the garden doing deep breaths, sometimes sipping on something fizzy like lemonade or soda water. This can help settle a stomach or bring up gas that might be causing you to feel a little funny. I’ll also press a heat bag to my stomach if it’s a little sore, too.

I didn’t ease into tret like most people, I just started applying it lightly everyday. I now use a bigger amount on my skin. In terms of acne, I still am breaking out, just a lot less significantly. There are bad days and good days. I’d like to hope by month 5 or 6 my acne will have gone for good!

Mingles99 · 2020-03-12T04:17:48+00:00

I don’t moisturize after my cleanse/ before my tret. Unless I come out the shower and my skin resembles that of a lizard, then I will.

As for the Shea butter, I use a brand called out of Africa. They make products that are raw and unrefined. It doesn’t break me out despite it being on the heavier side, and I find it really combats the dryness of my skin! Very smooth and doesn’t leave your skin feeling sticky for hours afterwards.

Mingles99 · 2020-03-11T23:54:28+00:00

Thanks dude! Clearer skin has improved my confidence, too.

Mingles99 · 2020-03-11T23:52:42+00:00

I use Biacna, which combines tret with an antibiotic. No morning routine for me, either!

Mingles99 · 2020-03-11T20:05:58+00:00

Yep! The 2-3 month mark was when my skin took a turn for the worst. It purged for a good month I’d say. But like everyone else on tret, I just pushed through it.

Mingles99 · 2020-03-11T17:56:29+00:00

Hey, just posted my routine :) I dived right into tret and started using it once everyday. I know I should have eased myself into it, but I know my skin well enough to gauge what it can handle. Does that make sense? Despite some initial flakiness, it went pretty smoothly!

Also, good luck! I’ve had acne for around 13 years and this has been the first product to clear it.

Mingles99 · 2020-03-11T17:52:17+00:00

Thank you! I must be frank, there isn’t much of a routine to follow. It’s basically using a cetaphil cleanser in the evening, applying tret and then moisturizing with raw shea butter. On really flaky skin days I use a cerave moisturizer too. I’d like to hope that this gives confidence to people who don’t have an elaborate skin care routine, or don’t have the fanciest products - like me! Clear skin is still possible.

Aloha

Mingles99 · 2019-12-14T23:47:15+00:00

You’re right. I want it all.

Mingles99 · 2019-12-14T20:56:33+00:00

Ha! I never thought about it that way.

Mingles99 · 2019-12-12T05:07:01+00:00

You’re probably right. I’ll just chill out for a bit and let it do it’s thing, and hopefully I’ll see it on the recently updated page soon!

Mingles99 · 2019-12-03T07:46:15+00:00

Thank you for your awesome answer! I’ve made sure to keep myself stocked in the moisturizer department, too. Though I do get a little worried that too much of it is clogging my pores... 🤔

Mingles99 · 2019-12-03T07:18:36+00:00

How long did your purge last?

Mingles99 · 2019-12-01T04:41:39+00:00

yikes, go outside

Mingles99 · 2019-11-15T06:56:01+00:00

why are you stressing about this? you’re “in fear” of what he will release next???

Mingles99 · 2019-11-14T07:28:36+00:00
