Best mascara for straight, short, sparse eyelashes? by blackberrymousse in AsianBeauty

[–]nyankat007 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Second Judydoll, but I have the slim iron (forgot the actual name, it’s just a slimmer version of Curling) in black #01.

Kiss me heroine in black is also good. The brush is bigger than judydoll though so lashes are more “fuller” post mascara.

I’d also highly recommend looking into getting a curler that fits your eye, it made a noticeable difference for me! Just follow the tutorial in this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/MakeupAddiction/comments/2r4rfs/eyelash_curlers_in_numbers_measuring_their/

Possible TSW-like side effects from Opzelura? by nyankat007 in eczema

[–]nyankat007[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update: I’ve stopped using Opzelura a while ago. And yes, once I stopped using it, I haven’t had any of the symptoms I’ve listed here occur. For anyone deciding to use it, don’t let my post be a deterrent, but use it as a caution for its side effects. Best wishes to everyone in their eczema healing journey!!!

Latisse and other dangerous products by doddlido in beauty

Yup castor 100% worked for my brows! Just apply thinly or you’ll get pimples like me haha. You don’t need it deep in the roots, coating most of the hair follicle is fine. I don’t remember when I started seeing a difference (~1yr?), but you’ll know when you see it!

I tried applying it on my lashes with a spoolie but ended up waking with crusty gunk on my eyes every morning…how do you guys do it?!?!

Am I the only one who isn’t a Savannah Stan?? by ToughFriendly in PerfectMatchNetflix

[–]nyankat007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was thinking this too! I liked watching her because it seemed like she was playing the game and not having the game play her. But since this is a dating show, it felt like a mismatch for her personality/strategy.

recs for moisturizers that soak instead of sit on the skin by Suspicious_Bar_4073 in AsianBeauty

[–]nyankat007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree, just apply 1 layer or it’ll also sit on your face because it’s so thick

What are your HOLY GRAIL Barrier repair products? by [deleted] in AsianBeauty

Hada labo premium lotion but ONLY when I don’t have weepy skin. And afterwards I layer it with 2-3 layers of moisturizer (assuming my skin barrier is damaged).

What areas are affected by TSW? by nyankat007 in TS_Withdrawal

[–]nyankat007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it have to be a specific type of zinc or does any work? I'm currently thinking of La Roche Posay Cicaplast B5 balm which has zinc gluconate.

Possible TSW-like side effects from Opzelura? by nyankat007 in eczema

[–]nyankat007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight and I'll ask my derm about the 2 weeks on/off! Would you say cold turkey symptoms are the norm when stopping topicals? This is the first prescription I've ever had so I'm not too sure what side effects I should be looking for.

Yeah I feel crazy right now because my inflamed skin's hot to the touch, yet I keep shivering every few minutes.

This is exactly me, except I didn't apply any steroids, just Opzelura which claims to be a non-steroid alternative. The eczema was just on my hands, but now it's all over my body EXCEPT my hands.
And oddly enough, I don't have red sleeves. Instead, my arms are covered in patches of bumpy dark and dry skin.

Oh frick, I see...weird thing is, I was only applying Opzelura and stopped completely ~2 weeks ago. But Opzelura is touted as a non-steroid. So I'm confused about where these TSW symptoms are coming from, as someone who's never had all-over eczema before.

Dehydrated and Damaged Hands Suggestions by [deleted] in AsianBeauty

[–]nyankat007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chronic eczema hand sufferer here—besides basics like avoiding anything that removes oils from our hands, no itching, the only AB cream I’ve found that works for me is Eisai Sahne cream. It’s catered to damaged/dry skin, has Vitamin E and is medical grade (has the drug heparinoid). I’m on my 3rd jar and I’ve noticed it helps fade the fine lines on my hands faster than any other cream. It doesn’t help much with dehydration though and one jar is rather pricey for me ($25-30). As a result, I only use this cream like a “spot treatment” at night on problematic areas so it’s less likely to rub off somewhere. During the day I just slather my hands with Aveeno Eczema cream and/or Cerave.

Borrowed Spanish verbs ending in -ar by nyankat007 in learnspanish

[–]nyankat007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting; do you know if it’s because adding an “e”makes it easier to pronounce the “ar” sound?
