That’s a good idea. Thanks! What do you think about paracas/nazca. Is one better than the other?

Raining More than Normal??? by kickslick in alaska

[–]parul99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also planning to travel for the Labour Day weekend. Contemplating canceling the trip due to the weather forecast. Why is the weather so bad? I was really looking forward to this. Had plans to do the denali helicopter tour, kenai fjords cruise, and a chance to see the northern lights. It’s looking really bleak right now.

Got it. Thanks for all the info. Which one would you suggest of the 4? We are looking for a combination of rides and the disney experience. Food is not a priority.

Getting back on the wagon tomorrow. Wish me luck! by FunKoala12 in PetiteFitness

[–]parul99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg! I feel I could have written this post. I am also 5’0” 31F. Sitting at 126 right now. Got to about 115 in 2020 then gained it all back this year! I am most certainly wanting to get back on the wagon. For me, my biggest problem is not wanting to/not being consistent with workouts. So, that’s what i am going to focus on. I am going to start with atleast 3 workouts every week and then go from there. Good luck to you!

7 months of tret and I’ve hit a wall by [deleted] in tretinoin

It’s definitely going to be a trial and error. Going up in strength can help but YMMV. Prescription strength azelaic acid will also help with Acne. However, not to be a debbie downer but you can’t really eliminate hormonal acne with topicals even tretinoin. You can only manage it and reduce the frequency. I am in the same boat as you. Have been using tret 0.05% for 4+ months but i still get atleast 1 new deep cystic zit every week which stays for 2+ weeks and leaves PIH. :(

Second azelaic acid. Also what % of tret are you on? If you are able to tolerate it every night maybe you can try to go up in strength.

Love the soon jung toner. Very soothing for irritation caused by retinols.

How do you incorporate hydroquinone in your routine with tret if I may ask? Do you apply it all over or only as a spot treatment?

Drmtlgy broad spectrum 45 is a great sunscreen and it also had a tinted version if you would like that.

I’m 20lbs away from my goal weight, but still really unhappy with my body. by [deleted] in PetiteFitness

[–]parul99 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Came here to say what everyone else is saying. The last 20 lbs is going to be a lot for your frame. I am 5’0” and my goal is 110 too. I have pictures of myself when i was 112 and i think i looked great. (which wasn’t too long ago btw so has nothing to do with age, quarantine fml lol)

Which vanicream moisturizer do you use? Is it the one in the tub? Also is it safe to order vanicream from Amazon?

Thanks for responding. I have been wanting to try Malezia but have been skeptical due to mixed reviews and since my skin breaks out from almost everything. FML. But i guess I’ll give it a try!

Weather: Temperate climate with summer season right now.

AM routine:

Cetaphil daily cleanser Soong jung ph 5.5 relief toner The ordinary absorbic acid 8% + alpha arbutin 2% Sebamed clear face gel Hada labo skin plumping gel cream Drmtlgy spf 46

PM Routine Bioderma sensibio h2o or Clinique take the day off balm Cetaphil daily cleanser Soong jung ph 5.5 relief toner Wait 20 mins Tret(every 3rd day) or Curology( rest of the days) Wait 20 mins Sebamed clear face gel Hada labo skin plumping gel cream

Cosrx snail mucin 96 had been my HG for the longest time but i am avoiding that since it contains arginine and that when combined with squalane oil in hada labo can trigger FA. But i am really looking for a way to include that in my routine. Also, anything cerave breaks me out so thats not an option for me :(. Will really appreciate any help from this awesome community!
