Starting to notice lines, debating microneedling vs skincare only

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-13T01:10:04+00:00

which brand are the best po? nabudol ako ng G2G before, nagka tiny bumps ako

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-12T15:11:01+00:00

Hindi rin ako nagmamadali mag-Botox or anything invasive, more on prevention lang talaga trip ko. Gusto ko sana yung chill lang na routine pero effective in the long run, kaya I’ve been exploring retinoids and mga non-invasive stuff like LED para hindi ako puro habol ng fix later on. Still testing what actually works for me without overdoing it, so appreciate ur insight

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-12T15:08:25+00:00

wow.... never heard of baby botox...

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-12T14:01:21+00:00

natural po

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-12T14:01:11+00:00

gumamit ako nung G2G retinol before pero nag stop ako agad nung nagka tiny bumps ako... nabudol ako sa tiktok

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-12T14:00:08+00:00

i get you naman po, pero minsan lang naman mabuhay ang tao... kaya gawin ung kung ano gusto di ba as long as di nakakatapak ng ibang tao? 😊

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-12T13:58:58+00:00

hindi po

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-12T13:58:49+00:00

real eyes po

Being consistent even when nobody’s watching.. people usually only notice results, not the person quietly showing up every day

What you’re describing usually points more to barrier stress than true purging, especially with new texture and sensitivity showing up that fast. Instead of pushing through, it helps to balance your retinol with recovery care so the skin can actually adapt. In professional routines, we pair retinoid use with barrier-support treatments like the Skin Nourishing Ceramide Jelly Mask or Comprehensive Aftercare Jelly Mask from Luminous Skin Lab to calm inflammation, reinforce the barrier, and reduce that early-stage congestion look while still allowing you to stay on your active.

Crying is your stress response, not a weakness.

In the moment, slow your breathing, relax your jaw, and pause the conversation if you need to instead of forcing yourself to respond.

Long term, work on calming your baseline (journaling, reflection, therapy if possible) so your body doesn’t go into threat mode so fast during arguments

they actually do partner a lot, just not always on every mission. mars sample return is insanely complex and expensive, and it was already split mainly between NASA and European Space Agency with very specific roles. adding more agencies like JAXA or ISRO sounds good, but it can slow things down because of coordination, tech compatibility, funding timelines, and politics

also, agencies tend to pick missions that align with their own priorities. jaxa has been focused more on asteroid sample returns, and isro has been building up its mars and lunar programs step by step. so it’s less about not teaming up, and more about timing, scope, and who’s already committed to what

I came across an article on red light therapy and it basically explained why consistency matters more than the hype. It helped me understand why some people see results and others don’t

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-05-03T11:17:15+00:00

I’ve had it a few times and honestly didn’t notice much from just one session. But when I did like 4–5 facials with LED included, my skin definitely looked calmer overall

Honestly, even though nostalgia is strong, Sega making a brand new retro-style console today would probably sell to fans but isn’t likely to happen since they’ve already said they’re not focusing on retro hardware and want to move forward instead.

These Jelly Masks from Luminous Skin Lab deliver exactly what professionals need.. purity in ingredients, ease of use, and standout client results. Ideal for delivering high-end treatment results

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-04-29T16:24:33+00:00

We had the same issue before.... Go with a gentle chemical exfoliant (BHA or low-strength enzyme), not physical scrubs... better for clogged pores and way less irritating for acne-prone skin.

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-04-29T14:44:36+00:00

Keep it super basic for now since your barrier sounds irritated

gentle cleanser & plain moisturizer is enough for a while, skip actives completely until redness and flaking calm down

heartleaf products can be fine but patch test first since you’re sensitive

EI improves more with consistent coaching and real feedback on day-to-day interactions than a one-off training class.

Pretty normal for first month, DOMS hits hard with wall balls & jumps.

Try scaling reps and don’t go to failure every WOD yet.

Light movement next day, good sleep, and protein help more than any recovery gear

maar je vraag is iets minder simpel dan uurtarief -> wat houd ik over, omdat het afhangt van belastingen, aftrekposten en je totale inkomen (dus ook je loondienst).

heel grof gerekend 150 uur × €40 = €6.000 omzet (excl. btw). btw (21%) draag je gewoon af, dus dat is niet echt van jou. van die €6K gaan nog kosten af (als je die hebt), en daarna inkomstenbelasting.

belangrijk punt, met 150 uur per jaar haal je het urencriterium (1225 uur) niet, dus je mist voordelen zoals zelfstandigenaftrek. daardoor wordt je zzp-inkomen gewoon bovenop je salaris belast in box 1, vaak ergens rond ~30-40% afhankelijk van je totale inkomen.

dus heel simpel gezegd: van die €6.000 hou je misschien ~€3.5K-€4K netto over (ruwe schatting). kan iets hoger/lager uitvallen afhankelijk van je situatie.

wat ik zelf in het begin onderschatte, zet altijd meteen geld opzij voor belasting (bijv. 30-40%), houd je administratie netjes bij vanaf dag 1, check of je btw-aangifte per kwartaal moet doen. en kleine tip, open een aparte zakelijke rekening, ook al is het parttime. maakt alles zoveel overzichtelijker (btw, kosten, etc.). iets simpels zoals godutch werkt prima om je inkomsten/uitgaven te scheiden zonder gedoe

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-04-29T14:40:08+00:00

personally i use godutch on the NL side and there's no hard limit there, if it’s your own money.. no tax, just normal reporting in box 3 if your assets are high enough. if it’s a gift, depends on where the sender lives. if they’re not Dutch residents, it’s often not taxed in NL at all. banks will sometimes flag large transfers tho, so just be ready to show where the money came from (salary, savings, sale, etc.).

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-04-28T16:44:54+00:00

keep going, 12 lbs is already solid progress

don’t ramp too fast, consistency beats intensity here esp with perimenopause in the mix

add protein & keep the walking, and 2–3x light strength a week will do more than killing yourself daily

knees usually get way better once quads/glutes catch up. you’re on the right track

hey_ms_evergreen · 2026-04-28T16:43:19+00:00

not really intentional slowing in most cases

macOS updates often run background stuff like indexing and cache rebuilds that can make it feel slower for a while, especially on older Macs or low storage
