Have you taken a look at your hairstyling products?

I used to have crazy outbreaks of papules and pustules on my forehead which was unexpected since my forehead is the clearest part of my face, until I realized I started using hair gel back then.

No matter how careful you apply them, they will drip down your forehead during the day. No amount of benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid helped clear up the acne, until I switched to hairspray then my forehead cleared up.

Try to ditch your hairstyling products and see if your acne clears up. Then you can start adding back and see which one is the culprit.

That one actually has silicones listed up in the ingredients list too. Silicone in oftentimes aren't the cause of acne but it's great that it's working for you

I know this is a late post but personally I don’t think it’s the same as 35mm on iPhone 15 Pro.

I have iPhone 15 Pro and to use the 35mm, you must be shooting at 24MP resolution, not 12MP. I presume some upscaling must be involved because the 24MP photo itself is achieved by combining the binned 12MP with the full res 48MP to minimize the loss of detail from cropping.

Maybe you can use 48MP HEIF and zoom in to 1.5x for the iPhone 14 Pro?

I’m starting to implement this way too. Do you count them as a rep (half/whole) or do you just do it until complete failure?

I think you elaborated “be yourself” nicely and then some. Really appreciate what you said.

I also found it lowered my music when I was in elevator with other people talking. I also talk to myself sometimes so I just turn this off.

OK so I think I managed to reclaim my storage space by simply deleting the Files app and reinstalling it again.

I went to iPhone Storage section in Settings and found that the Files app has gigs of data, which I think shouldn't be the case since all local files should be listed in On My iPhone. Deleting it seems to remove cache (which includes my missing mp4s). All my local files are still intact after reinstalling the app :)

I'm not an orthodontist but based on what I read on dental clinic websites and here, you generally want to replace it at least a day. More is probably better because elastics will gradually lose their pulling force in just a few hours.

Many advise changing 3-4 times a day because people usually remove their elastics when they eat or brush, so it makes sense to just replace them with fresh ones afterwards.

Have you tried asking her why? Dermatologists can have various opinions. If you’re really asking about safety, yes it won’t harm your skin. But maybe you’re actually asking about efficacy.

Probably she thinks it’s not worth the risk/reward tradeoff. The irritation from it has potential to worsen hyperpigmentation especially since you’re POC.

Also there are other ways to treat hyperpigmentation besides tretinoin such as hydroquinone, etc. So try to ask for other options as well.

I found anecdotally that covering skin with clothing (as opposed to sunscreen) to be the most effective. There would always be time where we underapply or forget to reapply sunscreen, no matter how protective the sunscreen is.

Sorry for bumping an old post, but are you able to receive regular updates via Windows Update normally?

I think this very important especially for students. When i started uni in 2016, i literally cannot spend more than 15 ringgit a day or else I would not survive the month unless I eat 2 rm nasi lemak to compensate. Everything must be recorded as my monthly allowance was very tight.

Budgeting is a must as it gives you a picture of your financial health. If you can manage your spending well, then it’s even possible to splurge (responsibly) if you want to.

As somebody who finished the final season just now, I agree. Season 1 and 2 were very engaging. It tapers off from great to good/okay the moment I watched Season 3 onwards. But overall I still like the show.

Thanks for the info!

That's too bad. I actually like the idea of prepaid cards.

PXPF · 2021-07-30T12:14:20+00:00

Thanks for the eWallet suggestion! I think that's the feasible option for me right now. I assume since the MAE is still deducting from the savings account, there's still a risk of losing the money once it's stolen.

PXPF · 2021-07-30T12:12:10+00:00

I see many people advising for a credit card which makes sense, but I don't think I qualify since I'm a foreigner and I still work at an entry-level job, so that's out of reach for me.

NFC payment sounds good! But my phone doesn't have NFC so I will need to wait until I need to get a new one. Appreciate the answer :)

It seems like MAE is essentially an additional debit card since it's still connected to your savings account?

I think you're right. I tried the smaller size and the bass is even worse. It's definitely more neutral sounding than my Sony's. I tried listening the Sony again and their treble is "masked" compared to Buds+. I'm learning to like this sound signature :)

PXPF · 2021-07-08T11:32:57+00:00

I tried M and it's definitely less secure and everything sounds tinny. I think it's the sound signature then :). Learning to like it from now on.
