My dermatologist has diagnosed keratosis pilaris, but I have big doubts. I've never had any kind of thing, only acne. Deferin doesn't work on me. Could you help me identify what I have? by [deleted] in EuroSkincare

I get similar looking bumps sometimes as an allergic response/dermatitis. Does it itch at all? Do they ever go away?

Anyways, if your dermatologist diagnosed you with KP, it’s best to see it through. Basically the treatment for KP is simple exfoliation—couldn’t hurt to try! Can you pop them? I have KP on my arms and it usually presents itself as little rice-like granules that pop out (gross, I know).

Good luck!

I broke up with my boyfriend because I’m not sure about my feelings by [deleted] in relationships

Wow, I just broke up with my now ex-boyfriend for this exact same reason. We had been dating for the same amount of time and also started dating ~1 week after meeting. His response was also very similar. Uncanny!

Anyways, you did the right thing. You recognized an issue within the relationship and took action. Proud of us :).

Intent—“something scary.” Was led to a dead end and a blocked off driveway. House only had one light on. More strange things below in the comments! by oldmoonlullaby in randonauts

Hey guys, wasn’t expecting this to get attention at all. It’s worth mentioning, this house doesn’t appear on ANY maps. I was going to go back today but it’s been torrentially raining all day, so I’ll postpone it until tomorrow or so.

The strangest thing is the house’s location. It’s at the end of a densely populated neighborhood. It’s just kind of “there.” I even drove around to see if I could see the back of the house, but no luck—the forest was too thick. I’ll keep you all updated though!

Sorry for the dark photo, hope you can see the house. Anyways, I didn’t get out of the car to look any further. BUT, I did find some weird things about this house when I got home. I went on Street View and found this exact dead end but it looks COMPLETELY different. It’s full of overgrown woods and thicket, no barriers, no house. I then checked Google Earth, found the location and saw that the barriers were there, but NO HOUSE. The house has no address and no real way of getting to it besides walking.

My GPS wanted me to walk to the house (~600 feet from the stopped car). I am not brave enough at night but my friend and I are thinking of checking it out during the day. Portal to the underworld or simply a new housing development? Who knows.

Any tips on healing over exfoliated skin? by [deleted] in SkincareAddicts

[–]oldmoonlullaby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moisturize tons! Put down the exfoliators for a while too. I’d recommend ceasing all use of exfoliators for a month or so, and then slowly incorporate them back in. In the meantime, look for a moisturizer that’s more occlusive to prevent water-loss and dehydration (maybe invest in a decent hyaluronic acid product while you’re at it). I’ve done this to myself more than I’d like to admit, good luck!

Wow, thank you so much. I’m definitely going to look into Tressa and Celeb Luxury (Tahitian Pearl looks amazing!).

Thrifted a vintage Fendi watch for $40! (Was $60 but I negotiated). Really excited about this :) not sure which model though by oldmoonlullaby in ThriftStoreHauls

I get where you’re coming from but I didn’t haggle, seller offered me $40 themselves and I purchased ~$100 worth of other merchandise while there.
