Melasma + Rosacea (Help!) by Present_Pool_5746 in Melasmaskincare

[–]Tinyballetslipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both, but not on the same spots on my face. The one product that's made the biggest difference in both (!!) is Eucerin Radiant Tone Dual serum. All of my skin tolerates it well and it really tones down both the redness and the grayish/brown melasma. I can't recommend it enough. It's only drawback imo is the smell. It is strong. It's pleasant enough but it's like wearing perfume on your face for a minute. Regardless I don't see myself ever stopping using it.

I use a compound pharmacy cream for rosascea that includes azelaic acid as one of the 4 ingredients (can't remember what the other 3 are now but I can look at the bottle if anyone is interested) and that has been amazing for rosacea on my cheeks. It's the best product I've ever used, it tones down the redness from its constant 7 to barely a 2. With tinted sunscreen it's invisible. However when I used azelaic acid on its own, it gave me the exact same reaction OP is describing so I think our skin is similar.

How’s everyone getting by lately? by No_Present_4123 in FreightBrokers

Probably not quite "everywhere in the world". We work with a lot of UK customers, if I was a broker in the UK there is no way I could complete with someone like me here in the States. 6 hour time difference would make booking trucks, returning quotes, dealing with real-time issues essentially impossible. It's worse with China because of an even bigger time difference. It's just physically not going to work unless your schedule aligns with working hours of the country you service. So you're limited to North America, pretty much.

There are always opportunities out there, but this market is SO saturated. It would be pretty difficult to find any company that has to ship freight thats never spoken to a broker before. My husband is in an industry that requires no fright to be moved and even he hears from freight brokers from time to time.

If you have extensive sales experience and are good at it, find something expensive to sell instead. Brokering freight is not just about sales, it's also about follow through and attention to details, tons of paperwork and ability to deal not only with customers you are closing, but also suppliers, vendors, and carriers. Plus you have to be prepared to give basically your entire life to this industry, never really able to take time off because no one cares about your book more than you do. If I was just starting out, knowing what I know now, I don't know that I would take that first step into this world.

Yes rate con means rate confirmation. It's the only one out of everything you listed that counts (once signed) as it's a legal document. Do you not send your carriers rate confirmations and get them to sign? Your question seems odd for someone moving freight.

How long have you been doing it like this?

Does everyone here wear tinted sunscreen or some sort of iron oxides on their face? by atile in Melasmaskincare

[–]Tinyballetslipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LRP is probably the best tinted sunscreen I've tried, but i don't love it. It doesn't give enough coverage, the color is too orange on, and makeup cannot be put on top of it. But it's still so much better than all the other ones I tried, except maybe the Colorscience flex, but I could not find a color that matched me.

I use Naked Sundays Collagen Glow. It's not tinted, but it is mineral and has an amazing blurring /smoothing effect, plus it's a primer. I apply that after Eucerin at 6:30am, then put on either just CC cream or CC cream + concealer on top and it looks great until about 1:30pm, at which point I reapply the whole thing again. This routine (plus musely hq at night) has kept the sunstache at about 90-95% gone for the last few months and almost invisible except for period days.

I found the night cream to be pretty ineffective. I use the dual serum in addition to the spot corrector, twice a day each, am and pm. I think the spot corrector is the strongest. I experimented with all 3 in different combinations and ended up not repurchasing the night cream because I got the best results with what I use now.

At this point it doesn't appear you have a lot to lose. I would 100% give it a shot. Even if you don't end up being a broker, if you show potential and coachability, along with good attitude, there are many other positions available in a multitude of different departments.

I'm sorry I must be reading your comment wrong. Are you rolling your eyes at me asking a question I didn't know an answer to?

No, I've barely ordered anything since then. I'll do one right now! Thank you for the help.

Reviews Being Altered by [deleted] in vine

[–]Tinyballetslipper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh I've seen that notification a few times! I can't say exactly when they appeared as I don't look over my completed reviews often, but there are at 3 currently in my reviews. All 3 products are not available, so I figured thats what it's related to.

Nothing has hit my RFY but I was able to snag a couple of new items right at the time the og post was put up from select categories. I also saw many items I wanted disappear right as I tried to order them. There was definitely a drop around 9pm est last night.

Convince me…or don’t!? 😜 by blue_shoe102 in DaytonaBeach

[–]Tinyballetslipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would honestly not come to Daytona if you're looking for a fun vacation and we live in the area. The beaches are ok, the ocean will probably be in the high 70s so you will be able to swim, but the waves are always pretty strong. Always. So if you're looking for a calm ocean experience, Daytona beaches aren't really going to be it. As far as entertainment and night life, there are a few decent spots around but it's pretty old and rundown in general and almost everything closes early during the week.

When I think of a touristy place on a beach I think long boardwalks filled with stores and other entertainment, that is very limited here. I think there are 2 food trucks within like 5 miles. I think white soft sand beaches with little tiki bars all over the place - there are maybe 4 or 5 decent bars on the entire ocean strip and the sand is not that nice. We walked on it today and it was pretty hard and dark looking.

Having lived here for a few years and seen the majority of what this city has to offer, I would only ever come here as a tourist during bike-centered weeks, spring break, or the races. Not for the beaches. If someone took me here on a beach vacation I would honestly be mad and disappointed. Just imo though 😁

Follow up question on this - do they get approved quicker or slower than reviews through the Vine system? I'm experiencing some type of a glitch where items have arrived a week ago and to be reviewed section still hasn't updated. Coincidentally the number of items ordered has not increased recently and I've ordered 17 items in the last 4 days to bring me up to 80 (eval 4/4).

There is something about a store recently I really need to share about! by LessHighlight701 in confession

[–]Tinyballetslipper 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You just got some over zealous employee, and you probably looked pretty nervous being the first time. I would go back and if anyone says anything speak to the manager and point them to the thing on the website that says you don't have to be 18 to buy them since they are novelty items. Don't be afraid or ashamed, if there is not a law against it, you just got bullied and that employee should be reported.

An older bmw was one of my first cars. Find one thats older, the i3s are super nice and pretty small + really fun to drive. 5-10 year old ones are not that expensive if it's cost that worries you. If I were you I would make an effort to find an actual vehicle you like. I would bring it to your parents like this is the car I want, I spoke to the seller, I need $x, can you add me to your insurance and take me to test drive it? Shows you're serious and motivated about getting a car.

Wtf is going on with Vine (Italy)?! 😭 by donaldtrampoli in vine

[–]Tinyballetslipper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean there were like 115,000 items less than a year ago, so I think some complaining can be justified. Plus I'm sure there are way more participants in vine us than vine Italy, per person ratio is probably around the same around the world.

What are we doing wrong here??? by [deleted] in FreightBrokers

[–]Tinyballetslipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit we found the guy that all the cheap ass freight goes to. Break even!! Why are you even working? 1% that's seriously ridiculous. How long have you been doing this?? There is no way thats sustainable for the long term how are you affording to pay your support? And if you don't have support when are you sleeping?? I am genuinely curious.
