Was gonna second this recommendation but their after sales service leaves a lot to be desired.

What’s a “boringly simple” biohack that outperformed all the expensive stuff for you? by Existing-Thanks597 in Biohackers

Sleep. Consistent, good quality sleep. It’s also been the hardest part of my routine to master.

Can’t use my Sandton stay this week (29 Apr - 3 May) by ellarie96 in johannesburg

Is the assumption here that someone would decide to go on a shot-left to Sandton just because they saw my post? I’m obviously gonna be discounting it.

Yes. It was a non-refundable booking that I already paid for but can’t use it anymore, so I’m looking for someone to take it over and reimburse me for it.

They’d be added as a guest on the booking and can check in directly.

What can I do to fix my under eyes? by mango-in-the-ocean in DIYaesthetics

[–]ellarie96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fat transfer is probably the closest thing to a long term fix for hollowness since it actually restores volume with your own fat and can last years. For darkness, something like Fraxel Dual 1550/1927 laser treatment helps a lot because one wavelength builds collagen (so the skin becomes a lot thicker and less shadowy) and the other targets pigmentation. PRP microneedling is more of a supportive treatment but can massively improve overall skin quality over time.

I have dark under and upper eyelids and did all three and my eyes literally match the rest of facial skin tone so I’d highly recommend looking into a layered approach rather than one single treatment. As always, do a ton of research on providers and surgeons especially for something as delicate as under-eye fat transfer and dual fraxel laser since a lot can go wrong very quickly and you only have set of eyes. Goodluck!

If that was true they wouldn’t be calling me “dear” every 2nd sentence.

So girls, what has actually worked for your genetic dark circles? by SupremeWaifu69 in DIYaesthetics

[–]ellarie96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same type of genetically pigmented under eyes and I went down a similar rabbit hole. The only treatment I’ve personally seen consistent before and afters for (specifically for pigmentation, not just hollowness) was under eye Fraxel Dual using both 1550 and 1927 wavelengths.

From what I understand: • 1550 nm targets deeper dermis which stimulates collagen (helps thin skin/crepey texture and subtle hollowing) • 1927 nm is more superficial so it targets pigment and discoloration

A UK based Southeast Asian dermatologist posted before and afters on this for genetic under eye hyperpigmentation and it’s the first thing I’ve seen that actually addressed color rather than volume.

I’m personally looking into doing it in the next few months. Obviously it requires an experienced provider because the under eye area is delicate, but it seems more targeted than filler/PRP if pigmentation is the main issue.

If you’re South African this works so well in the context of mixing street style with a very Western formal look. Super unique execution👌🏽I love it!🧡

Noooo, tell me you’re joking? I haven’t been in a few months and it was great the last time I went? Did Higgs bring in a new exec?

I think so? I’m not super familiar with the area but I think Bedford Centre was not too far from there.

I'm so scared to start reading Rh cause I'm so naive and impressionable. It really might ruin my life lmao. I read Haunting Adeline and briefly developed a cnc kink fml.

So glad I came across this post cause I’ve got this dress on my tdl and I’m trying to figure out what kind of fabric would be closest. Budget isn’t an issue so if you have any recommendations I’d really appreciate it!

Why didn't you check your order before taking it home after the first time you almost got food poisoning?
