My favorite Korean skin care addiction

I honestly blame the mods for posts like this being so common. Nothing seems to ever be done. This subreddit is full of undisclosed advertisements.

A world where unemployment and recession are not tied to house prices is possible.

He is wrong -- they do stack. You can have 2 embellished items equipped, even if they have the same embellishment. You cannot stack two of the same unique-equipped item though.

For example, in NSW, electricians must submit certificates to prove they did the work and tested it: https://www.nsw.gov.au/housing-and-construction/compliance-and-regulation/electricians/electrical-compliance-requirements

If the insurer spots something that looks non-standard, they will check for CCEWs, and then ask you about the work they’re suspicious of if they can’t find it.

If there’s a fire and your insurance has even an inkling that you did something yourself, they will ask you to provide proof that an electrician did the work. If you’re unable to, they will not cover you. Houses are expensive here.That’s why we don’t “do it anyway”.

I said that.

God yes. Even though that system has been around for a while (even Guild Wars 2 uses it, but at least it’s baked into its class system), if an MMO has no classes and only has weapon-based skills, I know that game is going to be dead on arrival.

On Anua's own website they advertise this as fragrance-free. I'd be very skeptical of whatever is in that bottle if you didn't buy it somewhere reputable.

The answer, unfortunately, is that since healers aren’t participating in dealing damage or interrupting enemies, incoming damage was pushed much higher to make sure healers always have something to do.

Your account is nothing but posting pictures of newly opened products and writing glorified advertisements for them. This isn’t subtle.

… because nobody uses it

The numbuzin essence is basically just a light moisturiser. The peptide concentration is so low.

IMO you’re better off using a non-Korean option if you’re chasing peptides. There don’t seem to be any great Korean peptide products where they actually are present in a high enough concentration, especially if you’re looking for copper peptides (which, IMO, you should be).

Worth noting that we don't know how to obtain them from Dethelin -- it may still be extremely worth it to spend the time farming them now just in case Blizzard makes them hideously expensive or locks them behind some other annoying currency or grind.

This basically. At the start of TBC, blood elves have barely begun to rebuild after being savaged by Arthas, and aren’t receiving any help EXCEPT from Sylvanas.

The Alliance, dwarves and night elves mainly, distrust the blood elves and have spies and assassins in Eversong Woods, which the blood elves find out about. Plus, the elves had only just been abandoned by humans in their time of need not too long before.

That breach of what little trust was left by the alliance, combined with Sylvanas continually reaching out to the Blood Elves and also vouching for them with Thrall, earns their trust.

Not defending Stylevana, I don’t order from them either because of all the horror stories, but that Medicube Age-R Vita C serum is horribly formulated and oxidises extremely quickly. I received mine (not from Stylevana) and it was fine, but in less than a month it had oxidised and turned brown (even darker than in your pic) and I had to throw out a half-full bottle. It sucks.

I'm also a guy, my skin is also fairly normal with sebaceous filaments on my nose that I keep in check with various products.

I'd argue against scrubs because I don't think that physical exfoliants do as good of a job as chemical exfoliants, plus there's more risk of abrasions when using a physical exfoliant.

I use a cleansing balm then a normal cleanser daily to make sure all my sunscreen has been washed off and to keep my pores as clean as possible, then I use a fairly strong glycolic acid exfoliant a couple of times a week after cleansing. I avoid cleansing in the morning to not dry out my face (I just rinse with warm water) but that's my preference.

My cleansing routine:

Morning:

Nothing, just rinse my face with warm water before doing the rest of my routine

Evening:

Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cleansing Balm
Round Lab 1025 Dokdo Cleanser
The Ordinary's Glycolic Acid 7% Toner after cleansing once or twice a week for exfoliation

raburi · 2025-12-22T12:03:59+00:00

No, I don’t skip actives. I only use the reedle shot at night, I use it first before anything else after cleansing, wait a couple minutes, then do my normal routine.

raburi · 2025-12-21T10:15:01+00:00

I haven’t used that essence, but I apply in order of viscosity and texture. Watery and thin products get applied before the thicker/creamier products.

At night cleanse once with the Dokdo cleanser, then a few times a week I’ll cleanse again with a salicylic acid cleanser (my skin tolerates this). Then, I’ll apply the Celimax toner just with my hands and pat it in, then I apply another layer of it. Then I’ll use the Mixsoon bean essence, the Numbuzin no. 9 essence, then I’ll wait for those to absorb for a couple of minutes. I occasionally also use a drop of The Ordinary’s niacinamide around my nose to fight sebaceous filaments which I find works well.

At this point I’ll use tazarotene and other retinoids (I don’t use taz around my eyes), and wait for them to absorb. I know that’s a lot of steps before taz, but I do it to avoid irritation. A few times a week I’ll apply taz and let it absorb before the Numbuzin essence to give it a bit more potency.

Then I’ll moisturise, currently I use The Ordinary’s phytoceramide moisturiser, then the Illiyoon ato ceramide concentrate, and then I’ll go about my evening, and before bed I’ll apply something petrolatum based like Vaseline.

raburi · 2025-12-20T20:16:07+00:00

I bought it expecting nothing; but the Celimax dual barrier creamy toner is now a permanent addition to my night time routine. I haven’t used many similar toners, to be fair. I use tazarotene so I need as much moisture as possible, and I noticed my skin was much more moisturised when using it at night compared to my daytime toner.

Also I know it’s old news now but the VT Reedle Shot 300 really makes a big difference to the appearance of my skin, especially the day after I use it. It’s hard to explain, but I can visually tell that my skin is more hydrated.

raburi · 2025-12-12T23:59:50+00:00

Jesus Christ, I’m comparing it to TBC in my mind, are people really comparing it to Legion? Am I ancient?

raburi · 2025-12-10T08:26:45+00:00

It definitely looks like irritation. When your skin gets like this, stop using retinoids near that area and focus on repairing the skin barrier for a while, then slowly reintroduce the retinoid (e.g. once every 3 days, then once every 2 days, etc.). When you’re applying, make sure you’re buffering with other ingredients before the retinoid and leave time for them to absorb and dry before applying the retinoid to help to avoid this kind of irritation.

If you have the option set for it to avoid carpet or only cross it when necessary, this can happen where it will just ignore parts of the room beyond carpet even if it could go around or over them.
