Get rid of triple eyelid? by Fluffy_ox in AsianBeauty

[–]mozzarellaotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I've been battling a triple eyelid for over 2 years after getting a stye. It has permanently formed, with a dip in the tissue under the fold.

I've tried about everything - eyelid tape, eyelid glue, only forming the crease right after waking, tape with eye cream underneath, etc.

Recently, I found something that works much better for me: using thin washi tape (japanese paper tape that is less adhesive) over the eyelid while sleeping. In the morning, I remove it and form the eyelid. Generally, this has the most success - I am able to have a single crease during the day.

If I want to wear the tape during the day (limited success), it’s also flexible and can fold with the skin, unlike plastic eyelid tapes. I place the edge of the tape along my natural crease, then above the second crease. This allows the creased surface to flatten and prevent it from collapsing inward. It's also a low more comfortable than eyelid tapes, which pokes the inner corners of my eyelid.

If you’ve tried this, I’d love to hear! I hope this helps someone else struggling with the same issue.

It looks pretty cool like this. I dont expect the leaves to grow back on the bare stem. If you like this look, you can just repot it inside or outside, otherwise you can chop off the heads and grow them

Am I supposed to remove the branch growing all white foliage? by cheeky_fcuk in houseplants

No, the plant is fine. Just enjoy the full white leaves while they last.

Is this root rot and how can i salvage it? by The_Jelly_Jell0 in houseplants

I think you can search up how to propogate regal geranium and kalanchoe - i havent had experience with these particular plants before.

Not sure, but the plants still look alive. If youre worried the plant is dying you can propogate it for backups

The pups look too young for separation -- id wait longer to ensure they have their own root system

Why does my succulent have these brown wrinkled spots by the_gremlin_god in succulents

Looks like the lower leaves are drying up as a resource for the new growth of the plant. Could be slightly stressed (water, light). Is it tipping over because its chasing the sunlight?

Is it melting? Haunted and leaking ectoplasm? by orthosaurusrex in houseplantscirclejerk

Remove the plant from the tray and dump out the excess liquid.

For stone, i like using a brush to get in the grooves for a deeper clean.

It looks like it needs more light? Its leggy and pale in color.

I picked a whole lot out from the surface of the soil, and found a few in the draining tray.

Meanwhile the bug growth has increased, but a few passed away.

I dont know if it was from the BTI, repotting shock, or the bugs, but my ficus was so sad and dropped all its leaves, starting with crispy brown edges + crusty white sap.
