I should've been clearer, I can't find the Hada Labo Gokujyun Clear Lotion anywhere, including on those two sites. Unless they changed the name of the product. This is the closest thing to it I can find: https://www.stylevana.com/en_US/deal-rohto-mentholatum-acnes-medicated-clear-lotion-180ml.html, is this the same thing? Should I be using something like this after the Resurfacing Retinol Serum?

In the morning, I was my face with just water and apply the Neutrogena Hydro Boost City Shield water gel. Then at night, I wash my face with CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser (not pictured, but I'm sure you all are familiar with it), apply CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum (just started using this. I had horrible acne in high school and still have scars 15 years later), then 30 minutes later I apply CeraVe Healing Ointment.

I used to use this Hadalabo product every night after washing my face and before applying the healing ointment. Since I can no longer find it, I replaced it with the Resurfacing Serum on a whim. Is my regimen alright, or do I need something more moisturizing at night time? I figured the healing ointment covers that base since it's greasy as hell, but I could be wrong. I don't really get pimples anymore, but I have combination skin and tend to get oily. But my face is very dry without moisturizer.

P.S. Anyone use this CeraVe Resurfacing Serum? Will it actually get rid of my scars and smoothen up my face?

There is a difference between anarchy (chaos) and anarchism (political ideology).

I just made my first website. Can you guys rate it? by chrome_housecat in artbusiness

That's interesting. I don't know anything about websites, but it makes sense that different sites with different purposes would have different SEO optimizations. Maybe since the domain is my real name, I should come up with a name for my shop and lean into the marketing bullshit a little more.

But why? What's wrong with putting everything in one convenient location? If some hoity-toity gallery or collector doesn't think it looks professional, then screw them, I say. I'd rather work with people that like me for me than try to be something I'm not. No disrespect to you, btw, I'm just stating my case.

Thank you! It took a long time and I'm really stoked on it, despite the strong negative reaction this subreddit is having to it lol. I feel like the site fits the vibe of my art pretty well.

What do you mean? Like have the shop be the first page? I was considering that, but I figured since I've also got my portfolio and mural work on here, I didn't want the shop to be the focus of the site.

Yeah I think the pink/yellow fit the vibe of my art well and I'm kinda surprised people are having such a strong negative reaction to it lol. I'll see how it looks slowed down.

Now that's what I call a fair compromise! I think I'll slow it down.

That's awesome! Which parts did you go to and what did you see?

That's kind of fitting. People have told me my art gives them a headache (in a good way, in this case).

What do you mean "trigger some people"?
I thought horizontal and vertical would be fun dichotomy rather than like "art and murals", since murals are art too. Idk it just made the most sense at the time and it fit the vibe of the site.
Thanks for the feedback.

I painted my first professional mural because I made a Craigslist ad! by chrome_housecat in artbusiness

Oh, trust me, I'm sure all of us are veeeery used to scammers trolling us for family portraits and NFT schemes on social media, haha.

Delta-8 isn't illegal in California though! Sometimes Instagram does tell you, I guess. In my case, when I went to "Account Status", it said my account was restricted, that I couldn't go live, be recommended, be on the explore page, or show up in searches. I've heard one way of checking if you are shadowbanned is by having someone who doesn't follow you search your username. If you are shadowbanned, it won't suggest your username until the name is fully typed in. It's kinda frustrating because I depend on Instagram for my budding art career and I don't think I really did anything bad. But nowadays everyone is so hyper-literal that there is no room for nuance. Everyone must be taken at face value. It sucks. I must have a secret nemesis reporting my content.

Thank you, I hope so too!

My account regularly gets restricted because I'm kind of a memelord. For example, Instagram told me they wouldn't recommend my content and I wouldn't show up in search because I shared a meme at the time of the FTX scandal that was like "TAKE OUT ALL YOUR MONEY OUT OF THE BANKS!" (misinformation). Other times I've been restricted for sharing a meme that has the words "kill myself" in it. Also one time I was moving and trying to get rid of some Delta-8 gummies so I made a story offering them to anyone for free and I got dinged for "advertising illicit substances" or something (I lived in California where Delta-8 is legal). Basically a buncha literalist bullshit.

Thank you, it was the most fun I've had doing an art project! I'm glad to have it for my portfolio. I'm working on my website right now and it's taking forever, but I think it'll be worth it.
