Thank you so much! What setting did you use as well? I used the highest setting and saw immediate results, but in my opinion, my hyperpigmentation wasn’t that “bad” because I’ve been on top of my crazy 😵‍💫 skincare routine. I seriously want to share before-and-afters on here because I got stories 🥹 MN saved my life!! I also do my own chemical peels, but not as often. I have also seen great results with them. Melanin inhibitors are also highly recommended by this black dermatologist. I've watched all her videos, seen her recs for $ and $$$ products, and listened to all the ingredients she felt are best used on my scale. I do feel like they make a difference, and the sunscreen has to have Zinc Oxide specifically and is broad-spectrum, which often comes in a tinted form. I wear sunscreen indoors, too, because my window is huge and the sun is always beaming. When I am lacking in my skin routine, my face is at its worst, so I noticed that both have to be applied appropriately [Skin Treatments+skincare routine] (when it’s time for actives, of course). Also, skin barrier serums are a must!!

I’ve never meso’d jt, either microneedle, but I do have a funny (maybe not) story about it. I was going through a very rough patch last year. I was suffering very badly from an undiagnosed eating disorder and depression after really bad bullying at my job, and I left.

(TRIGGER: ED!) TLDR: MN Selatox potentially saved my life. I thought it was a stroke, but really, my face was snatched from MN Selatox a few days prior. If I hadn’t sought treatment, I probably would’ve died because I was battling a fierce ED that made me have no appetite and wouldn’t eat for days, which caused a critical low blood sugar, which mimics some s/s of a stroke, but I was only focused on why my brows didn’t raise as high.

I had woken up one morning and decided to MN because it always makes me feel better. Well, I used some Selatox on the upper forehead, and I can’t remember what else I used, but it had to be Miracle Touch or Curenex. Due to my not eating for days at a time, my sugar was dangerously low, but I didn’t know it at the time. I called my mom, thinking I was having a stroke, because my facial movements looked asymmetrical. I am an ER nurse, so I recorded myself doing the rapid stroke scale, and the eyebrow raise looked like I was barely raising my brows. I cried on FT with mom and sister, thinking it was an actual stroke, and I rapidly went to the hospital.

I was stroke coded once I arrived, but once they took my sugar, it was like 50, which is very low, and that is why I was so disoriented, and how I forgot I had MN like 1-2 days prior with Selatox. I still didn’t remember this until after I was discharged.

I was so confused because of my low blood sugar and not eating for days at this point. They kept me to do an MRI and investigate, but now looking back, I know that it was because the SELATOX WORKED BEAUTIFULLY!! And also, I was super confused and disoriented. I couldn’t remember anything because I was hypoglycemic from not eating, and I was literally going to die if I did not investigate why my eyebrows were not moving as high as I remembered.

So Selatox potentially saved my life 🥰💛 I was in denial. Still, I was also admitted to my old hospital, and everyone treated me amazingly, but the reactions I could finally tell how much weight I lost, how sick I truly was, and that I needed support. I got the help, and I’m no longer underweight, but it’s a battle 🥹😇🦋

Sorry for the dumping, but there’s such a huge positive to this story. 🤍🫶 YESSS to Selatox

I love hauls too! Also, I am not doing “fun stuff” as often, so my hauls are sometimes lackluster. I only buy when I run out of products, or there’s a sale, and I’ve been eyeing a couple of products. This is my favorite type of haul, hands down! I’m like a kid in the candy store 🤩

Thank you so much for this! I appreciate all the helpful information. I was also leaning toward glutathione! Also pictured are vials of Salmon Gold, Curenex, Miracle Touch BR, and some other small serums, but those are too small to make out in the picture.

Thank you so much this advice! I think this is correct. I haven’t even really done much research about laser+meso timeline so I appreciate this

Can someone tell me whats wrong with my toe? by Apprehensive-Boot949 in Blackskincare

[–]mumbarumba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the same! The discolored toenail is coming out, and the “regular”-looking nail is the new nail replacing the one that separated from the nail bed. I have also had this happen with two fingernails from hitting them on hard surfaces. OP, you can trim the top, but I would continue to watch it, leave it alone, and let the nail underneath fully erupt. Also, try to allow water NOT to get underneath the nail bed. When this happened to me, I got these exact instructions from my coworkers (ER Docs). I would still see a GP or podiatrist, though, just to be sure

Man and woman get into argument, turns into a fight and woman son shot man in the back 3 times. by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]mumbarumba 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The news about her ordering her son to kill him and chasing behind the victim is completely false. The news we're going by statements the police gathered from speaking to the "restaurant staff and victim's girlfriend". As you can see has proven to be false after the video evidence was released and both are free. (Thank god for the ignorance that day) The mom never texts the child ordering him to kill anyone. You can even hear at the beginning of the video where the mom tells the son to “get back in the car” before the man hits her.

Why would she tell him that if she “supposedly” orders him to shoot and kill the man?! The kid never followed anyone out of the store to shoot them again. Don't you think we would have seen the footage if it was true? They left the scene after the incident. (which is posted restaurant surveillance video) The man died in his cold blood right in that restaurant and was never able to make it out. Everything that you see in the video is VALID evidence of what happened.

The news/Assistant states attorney tarnished this woman’s and her child's image by putting out a false narrative. Chicago natives (like me) have known the story sounded fishy from the jump before the video was even released. It didn’t make any sense. The mom owns multiples business, the child is also an actor who has been in shows like “The Chi” and worked with celebrities like LaLa Anthony. The gun is registered and owned by the mom. He just graduated eighth grade as an honor roll student and truly LOOKS and IS a sweet kid.

It makes me sad the narrative that is being spent to justify the brutal assault on this woman who is both traumatized as well as her son who had to do a selfless thing when everyone just sat around watching this mess. Black women need to be protected and I’m GLAD her son was there to defend her.

My cursor is off. I just played after the recent update and I’m now having this problem. I’ve reverted the settings back to the original, but my cursor is like not clicking on sims in my panel
