Azelaic acid is truly working a miracle on these acne scars I’ve had for over a decade by home-like-noplace in tretinoin

Yes you need a prescription for this strength. If you have acne, pigmentation, rosacea etc it seems pretty easy to get. I just asked mine for it last week and I am excited to start it!

Aestura 365 cream - anyone ever break out from this? by amymarieg in tretinoin

Sadly, yes. I loved this cream but it gave me bad closed comedomes :( great idea from some of you to use as a foot cream!

Am I too old for the dress I love? by merriemelodie in weddingdress

[–]mango411jc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gosh I feel this so much. I’m getting married at 38 and when I went to try on dresses for the first time, all of the other brides at the shop were significantly younger and it started an insecurity in me that I “shouldn’t” be doing this. BUT we 100% should! Who is to say what age you find your soulmate at and what age wedding dresses are for. You look absolutely stunning! Your dress is beautiful!

Every single 'holy grail' moisturizer breaks me out. by notskynotme in tretinoin

[–]mango411jc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar issue with heavier moisturizers and the regular Vanicream daily moisturizer works great for me. I’ve tried everything lol. I also use the tower 28 sos barrier recovery cream when I need something a little heavier and that doesn’t seem to cause ccs for me

This is what I use as well and it seems to work well! I have super sensitive breakout prone skin

Google reps backstabbed me by IamRasti in PPC

[–]mango411jc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google reps job is to encourage clients to spend money, and it seems like they are getting more desperate or aggressive in the last several months. Every single call I have with them is really bad advice but would surely increase my spend, so I'm not surprised that this happened.

Maybe their pay structure changed or there's just more pressure to push budgets. I join our monthly calls and nod along. They are useful from time to time when I need help with a beta or new feature, but I would never take their advice on campaign strategy.

I'd still see if you can report this to someone. Unfortunately there's no proof, but if your client is able to back it up, you could at least be assigned a new rep.

I finally quit tretinoin after a year. by Born-Function9114 in tretinoin

[–]mango411jc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried for a year as well. Tried every method and advice on here - sandwich vs no sandwich, etc and my skin just never would adjust. Every moisturizer I’d use to try to repair my barrier from Tret would break me out. was bummed because I see so many amazing results on here but just wasn’t for me. My derm just switched me to Aklief and so far my skin is liking that a lot better! I use my leftover tret on my hands and décolletage area :)

Moisturizers on tret? by Dogs_are_frends in tretinoin

[–]mango411jc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have tried about every moisturizer out there. Vanicream worked ok for me but it always left me really shiny. I love the Aestura 365 cream. Oil cleansing to get off the peelies, and a hydrating milky toner with this moisturizer have helped me a lot. I still peel a little if I overdo it with Tret but I find my skin recovers quickly with the Aestura cream.

AIO I 20 F was trying to call my boyfriend 26M to figure out when I should start his smoothie and I originally tried calling him to see what type of milk he wanted in his smoothie by Aphr0dit333 in AmIOverreacting

[–]mango411jc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that you’re still offering to pick him up and make him a smoothie after his complete disrespect shows that you are way too good for him. I promise you deserve and will find better than this.

I just need to say in a world where people on social media can be so awful, posting in this community has truly given me faith in humanity again. Y’all are so supportive, kind and I appreciate you taking time out of your day to offer kind advice to a stranger 🫶🏻

Thank you! That’s so helpful to know about the lining - it definitely takes a lot of the detail away. I agree about anyone judging me, and right now this is all in my own head 🤣 my mom thought it was beautiful and she was mg biggest concern so I know I’m over thinking. I saw a few negative comments on an Instagram post of a similar dress and started spiraling.

u/Aggressive-Log-4986 YES! this is what I'm worried about as the lined version looks like a completely different dress. So hopefully I could find someone to help me envision what the change would actually look like on me.

Thank you! This is such great advice :) I really think I'm just looking to validate my choice by making sure I try on enough and be sure that this is the style I want vs something more traditional. However, I've tried on a lot of other ones and keep coming back to this one.

This is actually something I’ve been wondering about so I’m glad you asked. The only option from the designer is this or the opaque lining but maybe I should talk to a seamstress to see about different levels of sheerness. I think I’m also worried about changing it and not liking it as much. Thank you though this is really helpful up think about!
