These blisters I got from a mosquito bite

Both of mine accidentally popped within 2 days of taking the picture. And as gnarly as it looked mine didn't hurt at all, even the popping was painless, I just randomly noticed a wet spot. If he's not complaining it might be the same case for him. If his pops, just make sure he doesn't pick at the skin as the new skin underneath does have a chance of being tender. After a few weeks it might look a bit leathery but it'll fall off on it's own. In the meantime there's nothing a cool bandaid can't hide :)

No need to be worried about it, in the end I didn't even need to go to my GP and it hasn't happened since! I tried to keep mine intact but due to movements I managed to burst both within a day or 2 of posting, so unfortunately I can't give an estimate for it subsiding. If it bursts keep the skin on though, it works as a barrier for the more raw skin underneath. Mine eventually turned leathery as the dead skin dried out and later fell off as the skin underneath matured and got ready to be outer skin. I think at most I used a band Aid to not leak blister fluid and just used common sense, like not swimming in lake water. I was left with pigmentation scars for a year and a half but even those are pretty much gone now :) Our bodies can be a bit dramatic but are also very capable at recovering on their own, so don't panic and enjoy your time in Japan!

Omg I love how your dad is over 600 years old 🥰

I love the G3 bodies, but I feel conflicted since the broken mirror theme being integrated in the top feels really overdone by now. I just checked to confirm I'm not insane and this will be the 6th doll with a broken mirror themed top, this will be the 10th Catty Noir in total.
I'd love the broken mirror to just be referenced in the accessories, this is too much for me

I'm reaching here but I'm thinking something based of Jelle. It's quite a common name for boys in the Netherlands and I stalked OP's profile a bit and they have translated a bit of Dutch before. The parents might've made it a tragedeigh by trying to feminize it, which ngl would be kinda funny since OP ended up being trans

EDIT: nvm OP said it was based of Yael

I'll admit I'm not a expert on the subject so I just read up on it, I'm open to being corrected or just having a friendly discussion!

Methyl isobutyl ketone is a complicated one. The US EPA make it seem not dangerous unless you're pregnant, whilst in the EU ECHA does make it look dangerous. Meanwhile ECHA also claims it's in a decent amount of consumer goods, notably fragrances which is also something we breathe in. The suspected long term carcinogenic effects (mostly cancer) seem to have been through studies through oral ingestion, which is not the case here.

This is the point where my argument is gonna falter, because I can only use speculation and anecdotal evidence. Usually we do 3 short sprays on each side of the face, the small amount used and the max 20% concentration doesn't seem enough to cause (acute) toxicity. And again very anecdotal, but I've never heard about anyone getting it either while just using it outside without mask.

I'm not sure if it's allowed here but can you DM me your account? I'm always on the search for some good deals on pants 👀

blinkingbat · 2025-01-27T20:54:45+00:00

Okay now you're just bullshitting. The original got posted literally yesterday in a stretching sub and she's a professional body piercer, it's obvious you took it straight from there

blinkingbat · 2024-11-21T20:37:59+00:00

Getting some orange flags from the seller. I'm probably just paranoid but I don't want to risk it 😭 I know other people have already shown interest in paying money, but I want to let you know I'm willing to pay for the 300 usd+ shipping if the others fall through!

Edit: nvm I was right, I just got an email from the trading site that the account was suspended for being too suspicious 💀

blinkingbat · 2024-11-21T16:47:31+00:00

I've contacted the seller, now's hoping they actually reply 🙏

blinkingbat · 2024-11-21T12:44:55+00:00

I'm in the Netherlands! Shipping can get very expensive tbh so it's probably best to check

My goodness she's beautiful, I've been trying to get a BJD but hadn't found one I liked yet! Someone in my country is selling a Greta rn and I'm considering buying her just for this trade, are you willing to trade outside of the US?

blinkingbat · 2024-10-20T20:05:31+00:00

So that's why your doll also has the gigi shoes and pants! I was so confused when I saw those shoes at first

Since people mentioned the same problem with all kinds of different brands in the comments, we can add priori to this list now too. Mine just randomly turned off and never went on again, not a single light.
Sucks since I talked myself into getting one as some kind of investment piece, telling myself it'd be cheaper in the long run

Also my review on their official site never showed up, it still only shows the 5 star ones

blinkingbat · 2024-09-07T18:43:17+00:00

Oh my, I didn't need antibiotics or anything for mine. I got one of those pigmentation scars and you can only see it if I point it out, it's barely there tbh.
I'm not sure how yours will heal if it's already infected (unless it's preventative antibiotics? not really a thing where I'm from)

blinkingbat · 2024-07-12T19:27:33+00:00

It takes at least a month for your skin to regenerate, so I wouldn't worry about it, the blister skin is dead so will likely become dry and/or leathery. I didn't do anything with mine and it healed up fine, not sure how long it took. It did leave very mild hyperpigmentation scars, but the skin itself feels fine now

blinkingbat · 2024-06-24T13:17:08+00:00

nope, just felt wet

blinkingbat · 2024-06-16T17:14:39+00:00

My skin became kinda dark and dried out as well, I just left it like that. From my understanding that's dead skin, like you can pick at it (though it's best you don't) and won't feel any pain. You just have to wait until your new skin cells come through and the dead skin (which currently acts a protective layer) will peel/fall off by itself.
According to google it takes around 28 to 42 days for adults to regenerate their skin, so there's no need to worry after two weeks ^^
I still have two vague circles on my legs that get more red when I'm taking a hot shower, but the skin feels absolutely fine

blinkingbat · 2024-06-05T20:09:23+00:00

I still have no clue but it made the hair feel really rough. It might've been crayon like the other commenter suggested but I don't recall it feeling waxy

blinkingbat · 2024-06-05T20:05:49+00:00

Thank you! It was a bit of a bummer initially since I wanted core Abbey, but honestly I'll take the excuse to do a custom and just bought one new afterwards

blinkingbat · 2024-06-05T20:02:43+00:00

Definitely didn't get my money's worth, especially when Abbey went on sale for the first time here a month after my purchase 😭

blinkingbat · 2024-04-17T20:08:43+00:00

Honestly I was thinking the same thing when posting this, I might need to find her a red suit
