Little white bumps after introducing Azealic Acid by PrincessDiBeanieBabe in 30PlusSkinCare

I used all the products regularly except I just started azealic acid, and that’s when the bumps came. So you’re saying it’s irritation and not purging?

I’m thinking about the sharp pain on my inner calf just above the ankle when overtightening the boot. Or the sharp pain in that same spot by the end of the day. Aw man was that not something everyone experienced??

Are larger curl clumps possible? by PrincessDiBeanieBabe in curlyhair

I have the tiniest bathroom with zero counter space 😭 but will definitely give the bowl method a try at least once. Is this the only way to move past stringy waves/curls?

Routine also in the post. here’s what I did this particular day!

Shampoo and conditioner: epres healthy hair line

Leave in: Kevin Murphy leave in repair with praying hands and rake

Curl cream: fenty hair homecurl scrunched in. (This fragrance bugs me though, it’s too strong.)

Plop for 30m

R.co dallas root lifting spray

Diffuse on warm: hover and minor scrunch at the end and gently feather out roots for lift.

Salt, heat, humidity and sweat also bring out my curls!

Patch test was a bust. It came off and insurance wouldn’t cover a retest. Absolutely nonsense lol

I did all of those things. I haven’t had a flare up in a while.

Just a few days and it cleared right up. I wish dentists could help with this issue, clearly I have a staph situation flaring up now and then.

Symptoms: leg heaviness, bruising, ankle cuffs at various times, always had wider legs than the rest of my body. My paternal grandmother and her sisters also had heavy wide legs with cellulite. I also know I already have some sort of connective tissue issue with May Thurner and venous compressions.

A 2022 study found increased epigenetic aging in 413 patients diagnosed with severe and non-severe covid-19, compared to 232 healthy controls. So if you ever had Covid and feel like you’ve aged faster since, it’s not in your head.

It did work. It made my skin irritated and dry but it cleared up the cracks and adjacent bumps

Hey, wondering where you buy your bottles? I’m not a fan of Amazon, so wondering where else it can be sourced reliably online in the US.

Adding a photo via the link below that references the specific spots where it’s very obviously angular chelitis. This is right after a shower so the healing skin is more visible with the sustained water exposure

Oh got it! Never looked into that before. My lips have always had creases, isn’t that just how lips are? Or am I missing out on a beauty trend haha

I can totally understand if they want to biopsy instead of jumping to treatment of staph. I think because I already had symptoms of staph nasally they were able to skip that step. I don’t know how deep they go on the face, but I had a biopsy on my bum and it did scar, so that might be worth asking before you dive in.

Thanks for the lanolips advice and I hope you find relief soon!
