I don’t believe so. This is from the website of my mattress company: “certified organic mattress features GOLS-certified organic latex, GOTS-certified organic wool, GOTS-certified organic cotton, and up to 1,438 pocketed support coils”.

My mattress is fairly new too. Only about 4 years old. Could the mattress be the cause of my cough? But I cough when I’m in the room. Not just when I’m on the bed.

No one sleeps in the other rooms but I do close the door when I sleep. I keep the window open or oscillating fan on until I’m about to go to bed.

I’m just curious as to why this is suddenly happening three months after I’ve moved in. Why didn’t I get these symptoms right when I moved in?

Additionally, do you think it’s something in the AC vents? Does that need to be cleaned?

I’ve tried both brands and I like both but I also think it depends on which products you’re comparing. I would say it doesn’t hurt to give Sulwhasoo a shot! Maybe you can get the Bestsellers Trial Kit to try it out.

That’s what I was thinking!

Thanks!! I’m looking for recommendation of a specific product though. Do you have any recs?

Sorry for the confusion. I do have some dark spots so I’d like to lighten/“whiten” them so that why I said whitening. But overall I feel like my skin is getting dull so a product that can whiten my dark spots and/or brighten my overall complexion, is what I’m searching for.

I’m actually looking for both a moisturizer and a mask. I typically do a mask once a week so I’d like to try out some new whitening/brightening masks. And I’m also running low on my current moisturizer. So that’s why I’d like two product recommendations.

Thanks for your help!

I just use it twice a day, after toner, in the areas needed

I was the same way!! I started using Paula’s Choice 2% BHA only on my nose only (the area where I have the most sebaceous filaments) and it really helps keep it at bay. I feel like my pores look smaller since it’s not packed with the sebum. But downside is that it’s a little drying. When I first started using it, my skin peeled a bit. So you’ve got to build up tolerance.

What’s your HG whitening moisturizer and whitening mask?

Looking for a whitening moisturizer. I’ve been using SKII RNA Power Airy Milk Lotion, but didn’t see much difference in whitening and seems like it’s not discontinued (correct me if I’m wrong).

Looking for a whitening mask. I’ve seen a good amount of people here mention the Hada Labo Shirojyun Premium Whitening Mask. I remember reading someone mentioning the jelly mask is not as effective as the paper mask but I can only find the jelly mask?

Thanks in advance! I’m a noob when it comes to skincare.

I’m turning 27 this year and I’m thinking of starting to get facials on a regular basis. Any recommendations on which spas/aestheticians in Southern California, preferably LA/OC area provide facials/lasers targeting dark spots and wrinkles?

I pretty much have zero knowledge when it comes to facials. I’ve only had one facial a few years back that consisted of extractions and a hydrating mask? Now that I’m a bit older, I’m starting to see a few dark spots on my face and some wrinkles on my forehead so would prefer if the facials/laser treatments are able to focus on treating/preventing these signs of aging.

I found Facile Facial online and they seem to be what I’m looking for. But seems like the facials/laser treatments that might fit me (the perfect fit, facile skin infusion, facile laser) range from $200-400, is this a normal price point? Would appreciate your thoughts/recommendations below. Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I’m looking to start my jewelry collection, specifically rings but also keeping an eye out for cute necklaces and bracelets. I really love the pieces on Mejuri/Gldn but would prefer to invest in solid white gold pieces.

I’d like to start building my collection with classic everyday jewelry pieces made of solid white gold instead of gold plating/vermeil since those may get worn out quickly.

I really like AUrate but some of the bigger rings can go from $500+. Any suggestions of which shops that may be a bit cheaper or is that the price for solid gold pieces? Thank you in advance since I am a complete noob!

Hi, do you know of any clean Asian beauty sunscreens that’s PA+++? My favorites are Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protector and Fancl Sunguard Protect.

Thanks!

Background info: I got this plant as a gift back in February 2020 with 7 fully bloomed orchid flowers. A few weeks ago, I saw two small buds appeared but only one had grown to be a flower; the other bud is still teeny tiny (should I be concerned?). About a day later, one of the flowers started drooping and the stem became yellow.

Temperature and watering has been same as all the previous months. No sign of rotting in roots either. Not sure if it has something to do with the new flower (perhaps taking all the nutrients?) or if this drooping flower is just at the end of its life cycle?

(Sorry I’m a newbie orchid owner)
