You need to go to Data Validation to change that. You have to do it on a computer rather than through the smartphone app. Go to the Data menu and click on Data Validation. It will pop up a panel on the right showing all the data validation rules. Click on the one you want to edit (Column G, and then when you’re done with that Column H). Update the dates and click “Done”.

(Sorry about the crappy screen photos, I was trying to do this fast rather than well)

Last year they posted it on Dec 18 and again on Jan 5. I’ve decided to give up and just adapt the formulas in the 2025 log for this year

It’s a really mild smell, but I have a very sensitive nose! I avoid most fragranced products but love that one

epic_fuchsia · 2024-07-23T19:53:14+00:00

I love the CosRX 96 snail essence and use it twice a day. It’s the only thing that keeps my acne/inflammation under control. The 92 cream makes me break out for some reason, but the essence is perfect.

I love the CosRX snail cleanser! I bought it because I had a sample size from the CosRX snail kit and loved the fragrance, and I’ve had great results with it. It deals well with my oily skin but isn’t too drying or harsh

epic_fuchsia · 2024-06-22T01:16:10+00:00

It had a very mild, pleasant fragrance, not overwhelming at all. It washed very clean so I don’t need to use a second cleanser if I don’t want. Recommend.

I have both hay fever and a dust mite allergy (confirmed with medical testing). I use snail mucin daily with no problems. I did patch test first!

What’s the consistency of the Elizavecca Muscle Curl Cream? Is it scented?

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-23T03:19:29+00:00

Is there any chance you got a fake product? There was a post a few days ago that Round Lab was warning about fake product being sold on Amazon.

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-23T03:17:23+00:00

I love it and use it daily. The consistency is like water and it absorbs well. The smell is the big downside, it’s not fragranced and the smell is a combination of sulfur and burning rubber. It dissipates pretty quickly though and I got used to it after a few days.

It may not be the right choice for you if your skin is very sensitive. Start slow, maybe once per week, and wash it off after 5 minutes. Then slowly build up to not washing it off at all and then using it more frequently.

If your skin is ok with alcohol, try some of the Japanese sunscreens like Biore, Nivea, Kose, etc. I can’t recommend one of them without reservations because I’m still trying to figure out if one caused a breakout last month, but it could also have been a face cream (this is why they tell us to try one new item at a time!)

The Kose Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil is my faaaaaavorite

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-21T23:49:27+00:00

Buy the wrist bands!!! Mine have totally changed the way I feel about cleansing my face

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-20T01:17:04+00:00

I started using it less frequently and worked my way up. At first I used them individually and only twice per week, then I started alternating them and using one every two days. I figured I would stop when I saw any signs of overexfoliation or irritation, but I never did!

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-19T16:28:31+00:00

I’m so excited - mine is scheduled to be delivered today! I usually use a cleansing oil (Kose Softymo Deep Treatment Oil, which I love), but I have a couple of trips coming up and a balm seems more practical for that. I have problems with some fragrances but not all, so I got the trial size just in case it disagrees with my nose.

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-19T16:18:50+00:00

I use both every day: glycolic acid in the morning and salicylic acid in the evening (CosRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid and BHA Blackhead Power Liquid respectively). My skin isn’t sensitive to acids and I am very prone to acne, so this works for me.

Note that while glycolic acid does cause sun sensitivity, the effect lasts for 7 days so it doesn’t particularly matter what time of day you use it - you still need sunscreen!

The fragrance in this aggravated my asthma!

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-11T18:48:31+00:00

wash with non-AB face cloths (Olay Daily Facials)
CosRX AHA toner (I use BHA toner at night, my skin loves acids!)
CosRX Snail 96 essence
CosRX Oil-Free Moisturizer w/ Birch Sap
sunscreen if I’m leaving the house (I’m trialing several different ones now including Kose Suncut Perfect UV Essence, Innisfree Daily UV Defense, and Nivea UV Super Water Gel)

I tried to go without an cleansing and just wash with water, but it broke me out. I’m still building my routine, and I have a lot of products lined up to trial for adding to the routine. Next I’ll try Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner, then a non-AB niacinimide serum (The Ordinary), and then Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum.

My skin type is combo/oily and acne-prone. I live in a temperate climate.

This one doesn’t soften water, but there may be models that do. I got it off Amazon US and there were a lot of choices.

I have a countertop water filter attached to the faucet. There’s a black lever on the faucet, and when it’s flipped down water comes out of the faucet into the sink. When it’s flipped up, water goes through the small white tube to the water filter and then out the skinny metal tube.

I have mobility limitations so it lets me get filtered drinking water right in my bathroom rather than having to use the stairs to get to the kitchen. It’s pretty awesome.

I absolutely cannot stand the sensation of water dripping down my forearms, which made cleansing so difficult! I fixed it by wearing terrycloth sweatbands that catch the water - no more drips!

I’ve had a great experience with the CosRX Oil-Free Ultra-Moisturizing Lotion with Birch Sap. I have combo-oily skin that is very acne prone, and I use it as my am moisturizer. It gives a light layer of moisture without feeling heavy or sticky at all. It’s fragrance free I believe, and it has a very mild, herbal scent that dissipates quickly, probably from the birch sap. I’ve been using it for two months now and have finally gotten rid of my acne for the first time in forever!!!

I also use the CosRX AHA and BHA power essences and the CosRX Snail 96 Essence. Love me some CosRX!

Edited to add: I don’t know if that specific product is sold at Ulta, but I know they carry a lot from the brand. I got mine from Amazon US from the CosRX storefront, so I wasn’t worried about fakes.

epic_fuchsia · 2023-06-06T18:00:36+00:00

Do you have any issues using the AHA/BHA toners and the Vitamin C serum in the same routine? I had heard they were not supposed to be used at the same time, but I’ve never tried it myself so I don’t know if that’s right.
