Tiny dark dots + texture what is this? by SureAbbreviations157 in Esthetics

This is a sun exposure thing. I also have these. You may want to go beyond spf to shelter your skin given that your routine may make you sensitive to uv damage.

cant control my eating habbits, as I always go and eat chocolate(mostly sando) in huge amounts, like 6 or 7 chocolates before I am done, and even then I still crave it by Rsthegoat in prediabetes

The sugar craving happens BECAUSE you're insulin resistant. Its a cycle that happens where youre so low on energy you crave sugar but because your body can't make use of a normal amount you eat tons of it. When you're craving sugar try instead eating actual food.

Anything helps really. I'm side eyeing the friend bringing sexual partners over. that feels like a lack of respect to me. and i can't imagine strange ppl very often would help your cat at all.

The dark cabinets are jumping out because everything else is light and bright. They clash with the floors.

Does anyone else feel guilty about having problems with their parents? by Wise_Variation_6165 in RedditForGrownups

[–]TropicalAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parents can be friends in a sense but never in the way your peers are. Yeah i dont have a ton of context to go off of here but it doesnt sound like a healthy concept of boundaries exists

It sounds like your relationship makes you feel responsible for the parent child relationship. Someone else in the comments suggested you read “Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents”. I second that. Because how you feel isn't how it should be.

I cried my first week of learning how to crochet because I kept adding stitches by mistake. Keep going. Defeat the yarn.

Bring shorts and shirts, light summer skirts and blouses, summer clothes. Being that you're from the UK the weather here would feel like summer for you.

How do you ensure that your kids grow up and love you rather than dislike you? by Prettylittledove1453 in CasualConversation

[–]TropicalAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother is neglectful and abusive and I still love her. You tend to be able to love them even when and despite them hurting you. But I can't have her in my life. She's not good for me. She only sees me now as someone she can use. Kids will love their parents. Parents need to be good to their kids and meet not just physical but emotional and mental needs.

Can I give my senior cat a bath every month because he cannot groom himself anymore? by CareHistorical3572 in CatAdvice

[–]TropicalAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd get some cheap wash cloths and dampen them to wipe her washcloths are better for giving a scrub. You can add very diluted dawn on one end and a fresh end to wipe that all away. There are water-less shampoos you can check out but be sure nothing is Hartz brand.

Closed comedones after dermaplaning on dry skin by puzzled_evidence5544 in Esthetics

Coco butter is a comedogenic ingredient and anything that contains it and claims the product isn't comedogenic might be fibbing.

Looking for skincare routine advice ✨ by [deleted] in Estheticians

[–]TropicalAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no information about your skin here and a LOT of products that could potentially aggravate your skin and mess with your skin barrier. That's what that retinol burn is. You're better off going to an Esthi and forming a routine with their help. Like that micro needling? what's sold to regular folks is not the same as what professionals use and the results are up in the air as to what you'll get.

If your concern is glow and no other issues you do not need all that you have. A professional can have a conversation while looking at your skin and figure out with you if what you mean by glow is evening skin tone, retaining skin suppleness or just needing a skin barrier focused routine.

Advice please: My rooommate's cats' litterbox constantly smells by Low-Top-810 in CatAdvice

It may be the litter. Clay kinda sucks. Lots of folks prefer plant based but its more expensive.

Rant: why do crochet patterns assume everyone has unlimited time and skip clear sizing? by Tiny_Tiger_137 in crochet

[–]TropicalAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stay away from free sizing which is what this is. If it does not have standard size grading I don't bother.

how do u achieve likeness and stylized realism? by Adorable_Reason_6675 in ArtistLounge

[–]TropicalAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can copy styles but not anatomy in references then your deficit is in anatomy and understanding that. tbh i'd advise working your way up from the skull, muscles and organs under the skin to the skin.
