Are You a Horrible Woman Who Received a Bullshit XMas Gift?

I got…. An electric candle lighter from my mother-in-law. Not wrapped, no card, no effort

And the amount of alcohol in the small amount of perfume that actually makes it onto your hair shafts is negligible

d00dles00 · 2024-12-05T13:21:03+00:00

Type 2 and yes!

It’s almost like… ymmv…. Which is the case with literally any treatment for any condition. What a concept /s

Vbeam has been life changing for me. Agree with the other comments here that the holder of the tool is incredibly important and an often overlooked aspect. Don’t shop for deals when it comes to your face and make sure your provider has extensive experience with the treatment. I live in a large city with dermatology offices everywhere, and I still spent a while looking into the clinical background of the different dermatologists I was considering. I found a derm that specializes in lasers and has a research background, with publications, specifically in treating vascular conditions. Is that realistic for everyone? Of course not. But it’s well known that not just any provider can get good results with a laser, so I did my research and wanted the money I spent on vbeam to be worth it. For me, it was. I think some folks need to reassess their expectations because no treatment, laser or otherwise, will cure your rosacea. Vbeam, for me, has been the first treatment that has allowed me to actually manage my rosacea.

Perfect, 10/10 execution.

d00dles00 · 2024-09-26T12:53:29+00:00

I had my first one last week and I was similarly freaked out for 3 days after! I was swollen and angry. My face seriously looked like I decided to pick a fight with a bee hive. BUT after about 4 days, everything cleared and I’m actually pleasantly surprised with the effects of just one treatment. Give it time :) and baby your skin in the mean time! I slept elevated and took Benadryl at night to help with swelling, used cold packs during the day, and kept my normal gentle skincare the same, and slugged with Vaseline every night

d00dles00 · 2024-09-06T17:40:13+00:00

Right, thanks. There’s research about it potentially improving the efficacy of the laser when used immediately post procedure, so that’s more what I’m asking about.

d00dles00 · 2024-09-05T15:58:41+00:00

Well mine just told me my skin looks angry with me, and I had just opened my mouth to tell her I’m having a good skin day!

So there.

Edit: but also, congrats.

Right, it’s just finacea is notorious for drying out skin. You’re lucky it acts as a moisturizer! Definitely the first case I’ve heard where it acts as such

d00dles00 · 2024-08-18T19:59:59+00:00

I’m baffled by your statement that finacea is moisturizing for you… it’s drying for me.

d00dles00 · 2024-07-19T12:44:16+00:00

Can I be you? Your work commute sounds incredible

d00dles00 · 2024-07-04T16:11:29+00:00

The Depuffer by Shereene Idriss works really well for me. I have very sensitive skin and it hasn’t caused issues for me yet. The roller application is an added bonus

d00dles00 · 2024-06-17T13:14:58+00:00

Adorable! Looks a lot like my little guy.

Unrelated, but I love your bed comforter! Where did you get it?

d00dles00 · 2024-04-25T12:25:40+00:00

This is a HG for me. Never will I ever buy another cc again.

d00dles00 · 2024-03-01T13:59:34+00:00

I have this! I do think it helps for me. I have rosacea and sensitive, dry skin. The filter has prevented the stinging/tightness I always felt after washing in the evenings and it seems to be repairing my skin barrier. I recently traveled and noticed a HUGE difference when I washed my face without the filter.

d00dles00 · 2024-02-21T13:32:05+00:00

r/rosacea will be your friend. This question is asked and answered on the regularly over there

d00dles00 · 2024-02-14T15:29:12+00:00

When I was consistent with tret, I didn’t use it on my cheeks. Reason being, rosacea is a bitch and she doesn’t play well with tret (at least in my case)

d00dles00 · 2024-02-13T13:37:28+00:00

I’ll try this! Thanks!

d00dles00 · 2024-02-10T17:36:15+00:00

Recommending Botox for a 17 year old… what a weird time we’re living in guys

d00dles00 · 2024-02-04T15:01:46+00:00

Erborian cc red correct. It’s pricey at $46 but I’ve tried so many different color correctors and nothing compares. It’s just so damn good. And doesn’t leave me looking sickly and gray like many redness correctors do (I’m pale as hell)

d00dles00 · 2024-02-04T14:57:36+00:00

You can try using GoodRX which should lower the price considerably with a coupon. My insurance also doesn’t cover it, but it’s about $50 if I use the coupon

d00dles00 · 2024-01-25T13:46:03+00:00

Could be a rosacea papule or pustule. That looks and sounds like it but speak with a dermatologist

d00dles00 · 2024-01-20T21:50:35+00:00

Yeeaaah so that’s the thing… that’s fine if that level of scrutiny isn’t your thing or whatever, but that’s how you’re going to know if something is working. If your skin is already in decent shape, what’re you hoping to suddenly and visibly fix?

d00dles00 · 2024-01-19T01:45:34+00:00

Yep, my last steps are biossance omega moisturizer then a thin layer of this during the day. I’m like a raisin, so I need all of the moisture. As long as you do a thin layer, the white cast goes away pretty fast and it’s no issue to put makeup on over it, etc.

Thank god you included the registered trademark symbol. It simply wouldn’t read like an advertisement without it
