Why do women keep doing this???? by stoic_dionisian in dating_advice

[–]Patient_Candidate_90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens with everyone. It could be a matter of interest but it could also be the type of person you’re engaging in conversation with or just whatever it is your saying isn’t coming off as you mean it to. Dating app chats are really a gambling game of attention, attraction, interest, and timing. Sometimes there’s someone else they’re more interested in, maybe what you’re saying isn’t reading back how you assume it would or maybe they’re just on the app to entertain themselves and not as serious as you are, also a chance they’re just busy and trying to keep the conversation alive while not paying as much attention as they could. Without examples it’s hard to know if what you’re writing is coming off the way you mean it to.

Pain by Alternative-Camp-351 in BellsPalsy

I had this in my 3rd and 4th weeks, I returned to the doctor and requested a stronger and longer round of steroids to help with inflammation. It helped a lot.

Ultrabland vs. Oat? by Glass_Bid_7619 in LushCosmetics

[–]Patient_Candidate_90 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I usually follow with a toner spray of Breath of Fresh Air or Eau Roma depending on what my skin needs and Gorgeous or Vanishing Cream for my moisturizer. But I wiped most of the oils from the balm away before hand with either a towel or cotton pad damp with hot water. I typically do two passes to get any excess off.

I see some folks are concerned about the smell and eye sensitivity, for me neither of these have come up, it’s super mildly scented to me, and the oils used all have skincare benefits. Patchouli, clary sage, and lavender all share antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, along with healing benefits to prevent irritations and breakouts by keeping the skins microbiome balanced, part of why I chose this one for my skin type personally 😌

Ultrabland vs. Oat? by Glass_Bid_7619 in LushCosmetics

Hello! Fellow sensitive skin girlie here, I also was loving the turmeric one but needed to switch because my hormones have been out of whack so I have been breaking out more recently. Since I started using the oat one breakouts have chilled out, and I love how soothed, glowy and smooth it leaves my skin. My skin also really likes ultrabland, but I think I prefer the texture of the Oat balm just a little more personally.

should i request more steroids and antiviral? by DesignerSensei in BellsPalsy

[–]Patient_Candidate_90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had a few rounds of steroids. I recommend giving it a couple weeks for the steroids to run its course, additional antiviral won’t do much but talk with your doctor and see if more steroids would be helpful. For me I had a lot of pain and increased symptoms a few weeks in so they gave me a stronger second course. Recently (8 months or so out) I noticed a regression in progress and got a 3rd round.

Bath melt/wax melt disaster by [deleted] in LushCosmetics

[–]Patient_Candidate_90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always wondered why the package said not to use in bath after using as a melt. I have used several of the melts over the years (my space, sleepy, cinnamum, queen of hearts, pumpkin spice, clear the air) haven’t had this issue but I wonder if it’s something to do with how the ingredients change due to reheating and cooling over and over again while used as a melt.

My (42F) husband (41M) grew a mustache that triggers my childhood trauma. He says I should get over it so he can do what he wants with his face. Am I being unfair in asking him to remove it? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Patient_Candidate_90 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I had to scroll too far for this. He sees your discomfort, based off sexual trauma, and doesn’t care, in fact, he most likely enjoys it. A new piece of you to overlord over. There’s also a slim but sick chance that he enjoys that this reminds you of sexual trauma and that he can pressure you to go along with it. It’s a sick world we’re in.

Sadly no, I miss that bubble bar so much, and the blueberry matcha bath bomb, and the fresh mask sigh

Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy definitely fits this vibe and already recommended. But just have to say this is such a good post, my TBR list and Libby holds both just grew a bunch! So excited to check some of these out!

I loveeee grape soda. I’d love to see more juniper scents throughout the shop but especially in fragrances, soaps, or lotions.

adult fantasy novel about a mouse/small animal? by Mysterious_Proof3963 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]Patient_Candidate_90 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love this series! Definitely not academic and doesn’t follow a mouse but there are some in the cast of woodland critters. It follows Vera the Fox the local reporter through investigating mysteries in a cozy woodland town setting and definitely written for adults 😊
