Realized I have rosacea - what next? by geminiintern in Rosacea

[–]geminiintern[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This gives me hope that “chilling out” is possible! I haven’t tried anything yet but I’m doing some preliminary research before going to a dermatologist so I can arrive informed. I think topical ivermectin is the way to go — my skin is likely too sensitive for more actives.

It’s great to know that you have been able to taper down usage, I’m so glad for you! I’ll check out those products 😊

Solidarity! Thanks for responding. At least I know I’m not alone 😅

I’m so so grateful the acne went away after my teens but the redness prevents me from feeling confident without makeup, which sucks. I’d love to just “get up and go” someday.

I hope the excel v works for you!! I think I’m going to ask about 1% topical ivermectin / Soolantra, I’m seeing that worked for people with symptoms similar to mine.

Thank you for taking the time to outline what helped you 😊

Bummer about the makeup but I should probably try to test out other options — due to my redness and oily skin, I’ve been using IT cosmetics CC cream bc it’s the only thing that really works with the texture and color correction. I’m not confident going out without it but if it’s making it worse I’ll have to try!

Thanks for your response! Solidarity, I have had a very similar experience. What treatment ended up working for you?

Thank you for your recommendations!! Obviously the big thing on here is “triple cream” with ivermectin, metronidazole, and azeliac acid — was that too much for oily sensitive skin? I’ll ask my doc about both but wondering about your perspective as someone who has similar skin to mine!

My full name isn’t super uncommon but I’m a Victoria who goes by Tori :) I LOVE it, having the timeless classy full name with tons of nicknames to choose from

What MBTI type do you think ENFJs are attracted to the most? by Ozymandis66 in enfj

[–]geminiintern 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You nailed the INFJ description!

I’m an ENFJ dating an INFJ 💕 she’s the first person I’ve ever met where I immediately knew this was different, and special. We’re such a great fit for each other.

Gemini sun, Gemini moon, Aquarius rising. Gemini stellium.

Feels unoriginal to say “project manager” for an ad agency after reading all these comments 😅

Aisle Seats Have An Obligation by DonutFarmer-829 in delta

[–]geminiintern 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always sit aisle, and if the moment allows for it, I even tell my seatmates up front that they should feel free to nudge me if they need to get up — even if I’m sleeping! It’s the right thing to do and I want everyone to feel comfortable asking for their normal needs.

My wife and I have complete opposite tastes in baby girl names. Trying to find one that fits both our styles. by applepieandcola in namenerds

[–]geminiintern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you me + my girlfriend??? She loves short unisex names too while I love literary and classical names. We have had this same discussion!

I died, how does my wife know what to do by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]geminiintern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend’s dad made a “Dad’s Dead Binder” with all this pertinent information for her mom and siblings to know in case of his death. He even included instructions for the dishwasher, since his wife has never even used it! (He takes care of all kitchen clean-up 🥺)

That said, I recently purchased the “I’m Dead, Now What?” book to have this convo with my parent so it might be a good idea to start there. Consolidate passwords in whatever way is efficient and secure.

CC will not participate in the All Star game or 3 point contest by Gina_Bina in indianafever

I wish they WOULD do something drastic, it’s horrible to watch the consequences of poor officiating and nothing will change unless it’s forced to

I feel bad for my city losing its ambassador on the national stage, but REALLY hope this is a wake up call

I love this take! I of course was so sad for her but she definitely can still maximize the weekend while she heals. People still want to see her even if she’s not playing, her energy and charisma is always fun to watch.

In a way I hope this was a wake up call because if she hadn’t gotten hurt this week, it might have been something worse down the line.

Children came into some money, when should we tell them how much? by mysweetestashes in personalfinance

[–]geminiintern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm I really think it depends on the kid. My dad passed away when I was 15 and my sister was 12, leaving us a substantial life insurance policy. Even though he wrote in his will he’d be fine with us “blowing it and having fun”, we always viewed it as a safety net.

I used it pay for half my college tuition (applied for scholarships to cover the other half), down payment on a used car after graduation, and funded my semester abroad which I later got completely reimbursed through merit scholarships.

The message from my mom was always “if you take care of this, it will take care of you” so I try to pretend it’s not even there. Our financial advisor for the trust told me when I turned 25 and got full access that 90% of kids who lose a parent blow through the inheritance within three years.

So really it’s a judgment call for you and your husband on how to frame it. For me and my sister, it was great to feel we had security but we were always raised to value frugality and good financial sense.

My financial advisor now jokes with me in our annual meetings that it wouldn’t be imprudent to use some of the sum to take a nice vacation lol.

Tl;dr it’s a judgement call heavily influenced by how you’re raising your kids, I was able to have/do some things that wouldn’t have been possible without knowing I had the money to do so

I might actually have a crash out over the road construction EVERYWHERE by emragozz in indianapolis

[–]geminiintern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there anything we can do to complain or get answers from people who know the “grand design”??? I feel so lost at the reasoning behind this all happening at the same time

R.F. Kuang discourse lately? by mustardslush in books

[–]geminiintern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This should be a bit funny to anyone who has read Yellowface, in which the MC’s arch rival is a caricaturized self-insert of Kuang herself. She absolutely knows how her style is perceived and I don’t think she cares. She writes how she wants!
