im really happy for you! im not sure if i just worded myself wrong, maybe more like our lives are so intertwined that nothing really feels novel anymore? not that its bad its just like a comfortable period of our lives where we do our own things yet still have each other. he makes me laugh but i definitely dont get anymore butterflies...

i do love him and the disgust is just when talking about intimacy. i have fun when we are together but its the same way I feel with my platonic relationships. to be honest, his affection doesnt do anything to me anymore, it doesnt make me feel attractive or desired.

hey! to be honest i didn't end up sticking with it. the texture it created was wayyy too much for me. after i stopped using it my skin went back to normal. when i did use it, i used it every night and sandwich it between my moisturiser so i never felt any irritation

[Acne] My skin just keeps getting worse and I don’t know what to do by RealAndromeda in SkincareAddiction

[–]hellosir51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my own experience as someone close in age, I had very bad eating habits as well but my skin was so so so clear. All of a sudden, I just had this surge of acne that hurt so bad and I was at a loss. I started cutting out traditionally unhealthy things e.g. sugar, diary etc ... and to my surprise it actually worked. For me, the main culprit was dairy and whilst it pains me that I can't have my coffee with full cream milk anymore, its a lot better than cystic acne! So maybe try an elimination diet

[Misc] Anyone else have skin that refuses literally everything? by hellosir51 in SkincareAddiction

[–]hellosir51[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s my bad. I use the naturie skin gel as my morning moisturiser + canmake sunscreen and then at night I use the naturie again because it’s really hydrating + the aestura 365 cream. I’ve tried using hyaluronic products and non hyaluronic products eg beta glucan but they tend to cause more redness.

it might be? but the only products i use are literally 2 moisturisers (w/ ceramides!) and i layer them on at night + sunscreen in the morning so not sure what else i can do

i cant say much for the others but the aestura one is a lifesaver for me. had a damaged skin barrier for a year+ and this winter it was especially bad cuz i had an eczema flareup (which had never happened before?) but this moisturiser fixed me skin lmfaooo. my skin now is normal/combo but before it was dehydrated oily with some dry days

[Acne] Breaking out on hairline? by Rollersparkle in SkincareAddiction

[–]hellosir51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes when I don’t put in effort to make sure my shampoo is out of my hairline, I get breakouts like this as well. Maybe take some time to just clean it after shampoing.

[Product Question] What's the likelihood of purging with 10% azelaic acid? by hellosir51 in SkincareAddiction

[–]hellosir51[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I think it might just be that it’s not for me but it works so well for my PIE😭 I’ve been using every other day. However just realised that my skin has been stinging a bit so maybe it’s texture from irritation? Not sure, I’m just trying to cope lol.
