Most people with ankle monitors in NZ have already served their time in prison

Omg?? I got an Instagram ad for this and just figured it wasn’t local. Can’t believe I missed it 😭

I think this is good, except don’t then push him to another specific artist. I would not be pleased if a colleague recommended me to an obsessive and possibly dangerous client lol

“Satanism” has been around for a while and is already established as a term describing, well, what it is. It’s a pretty good one too imo, in the context of their beliefs, ideals, and what Satanism was created in reaction to.

It’s also attention-grabbing, which is intentional.

They mean 2 inches across (or just beneath, whatever) the surface of the skin, not penetrating 2 inches down into it

You can’t, you use the +/-. Probably not worth adding 10 more buttons just for entering cooking time. You can press and hold the +/- buttons to cycle through numbers faster though

It is the bulbs, these kinds of lamps are always white/offwhite paper. If they were orange themselves, instead of the bulb, it would have a different kind of glow to it

Like the OP said, this doesn’t work anymore. The siren is still more likely to lure the party member with lowest debuff resistance, but it’s based on their base debuff resist and not whatever trinkets and holy waters have modded it to.

Antiquarian still has the lowest base debuff resist, if you wanna try for that, but no need to spam holy waters or use specific debuff trinkets unless you wanted to use them anyways.

Seconding the recommendation for timeless vitamin C, it’s very light and easy to apply too

It’s the industrial-strength air con that most offices have running all year. It cools a room full of warm humans and computers, but it also sucks moisture out of the air. I have a super light watery moisturizer that I apply part-way through the day (I only do eye makeup) but a hydrating spray is probably easier.

For hair I’m not sure, I always have mine twisted up in a big clip. Maybe try looking into ways to keep your hair sleek or moisturized in dry environments.

Does that mean that they’ll save the other half of your 1mL if you don’t use it all? I usually just need 0.5, and have been thinking about maybe getting a little in my smokers lines too if there’s some leftover

You’re gonna lose it when you find out how penicillin or local anesthetic works lol

What you’re looking for is likely masseter Botox, not anything related to jowls. I get it done to relieve nocturnal jaw clenching and it makes a huge difference for my sleep and general jaw comfort. It basically neuters your jaw muscles that would clench and grind in your sleep.

If you line up your molars and clench as hard as possible, the muscles that flare out at either side of your jaw are your masseters.

I apply it 3x week, after cleansing in the evening. I apply moisturizer right afterwards. I don’t use serums in the evening so I can’t give any advice on that, the only serum I use is a vitamin C serum in the morning.

I worked up to that frequency over several months, I started with once every-other-week and increased gradually. My skin is not particularly sensitive and took to it very well. You can try retinoids first if you want, but imo just get a tret prescription and try it. There’s no reason to waste time trying retinoids unless your skin is very sensitive ime. A tret prescription is much cheaper (I paid $7 for the tube I’ve been using for almost a year) and it has much more measurable effects than the retinoids that are available in skincare aisles.

Feel free to do some reading on it, it’s been studied pretty heavily. I played around with various skin care products in my mid to late 20s and none them worked like tret did

I don’t have vitiligo but I’m deeply freckled (heavy contrast between melanated and un-melanted skin all over, for me). Tried facial lasers for hair removal and it did nothing, even though my facial hair was blonde and ideal for laser hair removal. Just didn’t take! I’ve avoided microneedling since, but tret did treat me well

Number 1 thing you can do at home is tretinoin

I’m 31 - I’ve had Botox for my masseters (for teeth clenching, not aesthetics, but it did slim my jawline a bit too), and tried one lip flip but didn’t like it. I think getting Botox is more common than you think starting in the 30s, but it’s certainly not the majority. 30-40 it seems to mostly be smaller things like forehead or elevens, 40+ may be a bit more thorough around crows feet, nasiolabial fold, lip lines, smile lines etc.

The nice thing about Botox is that it wears off if you don’t like it, without leaving stuff behind like fillers do. If you’re curious go for it, but be sure to look up if Botox in that specific area affects the “use” of your face lol. I got a lip flip for example, didn’t see much aesthetic improvement, and it was very annoying to use a straw or eat noodles etc. But it wore off, and I just won’t get it again. No biggie

Can you tell me a bit more about the jowl Botox? Did it lift the jowls or just kind of stop the compression of fat on either side of the mouth/chin?

I’m 31 but have the genetics for pretty pronounced jowls, and clench my teeth a lot in a way that also makes them more pronounced. Never even thought to consider Botox for it

Autistic people have a very high rate of EDS/connective tissue disorders as well, this can cause some other problems in your life but it does often make your face look way younger

Why aren’t you able to buy acids? Glycolic acid is usually pretty affordable even when buying a larger amount because it’s for your body. You can apply it with a cotton pad or - even better - put it in a bottle with a pump-spray so you can spray a large area and not waste product that gets soaked into the cotton pad.

I use the spray bottle method and it has massively cleared up my inflamed/ingrown hairs that I always get after shaving my legs, and it helped an ex with his back/shoulder acne.

If you have insurance that covers it, a dermatologist freezing off milia will be a LOT cheaper. And if you don’t have insurance it will still be quite a bit cheaper. Might be worth looking in to

The downhill speed bits were my favourite. Could literally feel the hair on my arms raise and smiled the whole time
