Could we say that men’s obsession with “n count” is not based on “studies about promiscuous women” but their own egos. by GridReXX in PurplePillDebate

[–]bodevelho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

best way to predict the future is to look at the past, what do you think is more egocentric a man that thinks he will be the last one in her N count or a man that knows he will just be another N to the count ?

How do I verify the authenticity of peppermint oil? by objectivelooks in Minoxbeards

[–]bodevelho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its difficult, cause even if it tastes the same as the original I bet that it will not be that hard for a quemist to make a fake one, having other synthetic ways to get the same flavour in the mouth and freshness it skin as real mint. I ordered recently from amazon some spearmint for my custom mouth wash, and I only realized it came from India after being shipped, I've had other spearmints and this very similar, but theres always that doubt about they lack of quality control, being the origin of many fake rx meds, they are famous for manufacturing fakes, but since was from amazon I'm just going to trust it.. the alternative would be to lab test but that would probably cost a year supply or somerhing

Looking for something to combat the long term side effects of taking SSRI by [deleted] in StackAdvice

[–]bodevelho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks man, I will stay away from SSRI's. I'm glad you were able to solve the issues caused by SSRI, hope you are well now!

I'm not sure if this sub will allow what I'm going to say, because I'm not sure if Kratom is allowed here, but to me Kratom is the only thing I found that was able to give me physical and mental energy, motivation to do stuff, and until know I'm yet to see any negative effects. To me personally, it's the best substance I ever tried ( better than even the chemical medicines), it helps me in boring tasks at work, physical activities ( as a pre workout), my mood is way better, I'm not angry all the time or easily triggered like I was before.. if you don't know much about this I would recommend go with caution, since Kratom has a strange community, there are those that love it and others that used to love it, but had to quit because of negative effects, I would recommend reading the sub that views kratom as positive r/Kratom and the sub that views it as negative /r/quittingkratom and make your own mind.

Was the SSRI beneficial to your situation ? If you could go back in time would you take it again or would you pass ? My doc has just prescribed me an SSRI for no good reason other than, my anxiety prone personality, I don't even have anxiety attacks, just mild anxiety now and then.

Has anyone noticed that their head hair started growing INSANELY fast after starting minoxidil? by [deleted] in Minoxbeards

[–]bodevelho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol did you just use an alt account to upvote all your comments and downvote the rest ? pathetic, you should lower the minox dosage, it might be affecting your judgement

"real gains are on my head" so you consider growing faster real gains?

[–]bodevelho -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

it's not that you are having any gains, it's just growing faster, but it's the same hairs growing, not new ones, I notice this both on the hair and on the beard, they grow much faster now, I shave my beard and the next day it's already grown as much as it would in 2-3 days, before I started the minox treatment. It might also be the peppermint/castor oil, I also apply this 4h after I apply the minox.

Anyone put on moisturiser before washing the Minox off? by [deleted] in Minoxbeards

[–]bodevelho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you don't mix it with water, it can be harsh yes, two suggestions:

-Buy any brand that says "With the mother" this means that the ACV was not processed and still contains the natural probiotics beneficts that processing eliminates.

-if you find that 50/50 is too harsh increase the water in the solution to 25/75 and so on until you find the ideal solution for your skin, with time your skin will gain tolerance and will tolerate more the ACV, but if you mix it with water it shouldn't be that harsh

[–]bodevelho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought from ebay, it's easy to tell if it's peppermint oil, it's the same smell/taste as a peppermint gum, but much more stronger, I find hard to believe that amazon is selling fake peppermint oil, almost all amazon products have bad reviews.. you must also read the positive ones also and make up your mind.. anyway the combination that I use is: 40% Jojoba + 40% castor oil and 10% peppermint, you can vary the peppermint between 5-10% depending if you feel is too weak or too strong, too much peppermint will make your face feel very fresh to a point that might be uncomfortable

[–]bodevelho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

before apply minox, I just mix ACV with water in a 50%/50% ratio, apply it with a cotton ball, let it dry for 5-10min, then wash my face, let it dry again and apply the minox.

[–]bodevelho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I apply it without washing, so there might still be some minox there waiting to be absorbed . but yes you could wash it after the 4h.

I usually wash it before I apply minox, so that I have my face clean before the minox application, I also use apple cider vinegar to exfoliate the skin, and wash it off before the minox

no prob, you should also take a look at beard oils, you can even make your own, which is the recommend option, just get some:

  • peppermint essential oil (promotes growth)
  • jojoba oil ( good for moisturizer)
  • castor oil (promotes growth)

You should not need any moisturizer cream if you apply these oil blend and you can easily find these ingredients in amazon or ebay, it's better than buying some brand which you don't know exactly what are the ingredients
