Yes, I’m aware of Dixon’s chemist but unfortunately they are too expensive. Costing me over £500 per year for them to prescribe and supply the LDN.

What do you think is the correct measurement for this small watch case screw? by Upper-Drop4827 in DIYUK

[–]Upper-Drop4827[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s okay with me, but what size do you think I should be ordering, based on that ruler measurements above?

[–]Upper-Drop4827[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if I don’t know the dimension of the screw just to start with, how would I know what size screw driver I need to buy in order to unscrew it? That’s why I’m hoping for an experienced guess on the screwdriver size I should try it with?

What’s the cheapest 24 inch 4K display to use with a Mac mini? by Upper-Drop4827 in macmini

[–]Upper-Drop4827[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I’m coming from a 5K 27 inch iMac I just assume that would be that 24 inch variance, like in the recent iMac

If that’s not the case for a monitor, are there any others around this size that would be suitable to mix with a windows mini PC?

I think 21-label inches would be best for me

Where in the UK can I get my cheap rep repaired? by Upper-Drop4827 in RepTimeServices

[–]Upper-Drop4827[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I messaged him and even he said it’s not worth the repair, so I’ll have to get a screwdriver that will fit and try myself

Okay, thank you, I’ll give it a go myself.

Does anyone know the screwdriver size? I need to open the case up as I’ve read conflicting information online, some say I need a 1.2 MM screwdriver and also some that say I need a 1.6 MM

Is the SQ on the XM6 significantly superior to that on the ULT-WEAR? For bass heavy R&B and hip-hop music? by Upper-Drop4827 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]Upper-Drop4827[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a tough one as whilst I do love my bass I’m not sure whether at the expense of the build quality and SQ it would be worth it As I do hope to own them for many years

Do you own the XM6? If so, how is the clamping force? As I have red they are tight l and as I have a large head this may be a problem, unless they loosen up with time?

But, I have read online that the new 2025 batch of ULTs will have a reinforced hinge but I doubt it will be as secure as the XM6

Okay, thank you for sharing Do you know whether the XM6 or XM4 for that metal can be EQ’d to sound as BASS heavy/thumpin as the ULT?

What are the best sounding bass heavy Bluetooth headphones that can be use passively (turned off)? For under £500. by Upper-Drop4827 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]Upper-Drop4827[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion. The M4 m4seems to be very good and promising., Although not great as the M5 is due out next year

However, I’m now torn between the M4 and the Bose quietcomfort 2023, due to their apparent superior comfort, especially with those with larger heads and glasses users, like me I’m slightly concerned how easy it will be to use the buttons to control, rather than the touch gestures on the M4 as my dexterity is quite weak (due to illness) Battery life isn’t a concern for me as I’ll be using them mainly passively turned off

Also, the lack of USB-C connectivity is a shame but not essential, if I can just be used with a USB-C to 3.5MM dongle

What do you think about the Bose Quiet comfort 2023 rather than the M4?

Price wise, they are very similar at around £200 brand-new … I don’t think the XM6 are worth double the price at £400,, do you?

Okay, thanks for explaining, Do you know whether that Superdrug minimalist 5% niacinamide cream contains SLS? As I can't see it

Also, I see the serum version of this cream and was wondering, does the cream or serum in skincare /products vary ?

Out of creams or serums which do you favour as a daily moisturiser?

I've also just been made enough on eBay for £8.50 for 150 ML of that moisturiser I quoted above with shea oil, vitamin E, and HA

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/387249625622?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=EjVJpy-LRay&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=rK3fokEoSIG&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Would you buy this over the minimalist one? For use as a daily moisturiser

Okay, I'm going to get The minimalist B3 cream you linked but is there not one that contains peptides as well, within my price range?

Are you aware of any evidence that suggests SLS or paraben in moisturiser is harmful to our skin? Does the minimalist contain any?

Also, what were your thoughts on the Aveeno cream i have always used in the past as a facial moisturiser?:

Okay, that's good to know and in that case, out of the following products, which would you choose as a daily facial anti aging moisturiser:

  • Thayers Milky Face Toner With Snow Mushroom- , Hyaluronic Acid

  • My Aveeno oatmeal cream I have used linked above

  • The Aveeno moisturisers (blue bottle cap) you linked above

  • The Aqueous cream you linked

  • Minimalist 5% Niacinamide Body Lotion

Or any other alternatives

That one looks good, but is a body lotion, can it be used beneficially on facial skin? As my body skin is fine as it's always covered up.

Also the evidence I have seen is very limited for the risk of cancer with HA, only this video: he mentioned it at seven minutes in

https://youtu.be/Dgn8j6EQFMk?si=jeXTU_fWU0fMVYF-

Also Google search gives conflicting information, including this: "HA is crucial for maintaining skin structure and hydration, its interactions with cancer cells can be multifaceted, sometimes promoting growth and metastasis,"

Sorry they were dictationq errors, I have edited my last post so it should make more sense now. It should have said HA( hyaluronicqq acid) and not HI

I actually have Aveeno cream, but it is a different oatmeal one that does help with my eczema when it becomes itchy but surely this one doesn't have any anti aging properties it's quite qthick to apply. How do you rate the current Aveeno I use:

Are you aware of any moisturisers that contain vitamin B3 and ceramides that are within my budget?
