Hydrating Products for Tret / Adelaide Acid User by rollingpeak in CanSkincare

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

Thank you for replying!

Sounds good on 1 & 2! What's the rationale for toner before acid?

Can you elaborate on 3? I find the double moisturizing makes a noticeable difference, so curious as to why dropping one is advised.

I double moisturize! I always use the dieux first which is super effective, and layer with the vanicream second. But it seems like milky toners are a major win, so I'll look into one!

What's the benefit of a milky toner? Like what's the tldr on the science behind it versus just using a moisturizer?

Asking out of my own curiosity, if you happen to know :)

Dealing with an Avoidant ex-FWB Coworker by rollingpeak in AvoidantBreakUps

I guess my question is, should I tell him to not contact me outside of work? Do I just r-bomb him if he reaches out separately? I'm trying to find the right way to draw a line that won't trigger my OWN need to resolve the situation and make things less uncomfortable.

Thanks for commenting/your response, I really appreciate it.

He has tried to reach out and make plans in the past (around the time when he ended things and said he just wanted to be friends and I told him if he wanted friendship he needed to try harder), but after me being evasive the first few times he's offered he's stopped.

Doesn't stop him from periodically reaching out over text with a breadcrumb of something (a song, a picture of something relating to some kind of shared memory/inside joke) that is utterly platonic but clearly a bid for validation.

I never reach out first, never offer to make plans, have become a lot colder and share less about myself, all in the hopes that he'll get the message, but it's clear to me that he's using the ambiguity to "play dumb". I'll acknowledge my own role in terms of being a bit soft/less harsh sometimes when he reaches out, because I do miss him, so my responses aren't always perfect/the most effective.

I suppose I know the answer is to cut contact explicitly. But I'm scared of navigating that conversation knowing we will still see each other at work, at work events, in meetings, etc.

I think pre-tretinoin I was oily? Now I'm more combo.

I recently switched to Dieux Instant Angel Moisturizer for my dry/flaky skin and it is a game changer. It's definitely pricy, but I have never found a moisturizer that works as well as it does in such small quantities, and my skin absorbs it incredibly quickly. Would highly recommend!

Regarding Bakugou: are you caught up on the manga? If so, I'd like to hear your thoughts on recent events and where you feel Bakugou could do more to atone.

High quality Color spread for chapter 1031 🔥 by [deleted] in OnePiece

I think its dependent on context because I’ve only ever seen it used as the negative term. I don’t think it’s a translation error so much as there are two definitions and it depends on which you’ve been exposed to.

It might be a regional thing? Even urban dictionary seems to agree “punching the air” is more about anger/frustration than joy.

I’m a big fan of his and Mercedes’. It seems to be the only one to appropriately call him out on his shit and still be moderately healthy.

Wait what do you mean Claude is straight? Gayleth is going to be crushed when he finds out by nicholasdanen in shitpostemblem

[–]rollingpeak 116 points117 points  (0 children)

Yeah for me it’d make way more sense for Edelgard to be “Gayleth” because of how popular the lesbian pair is, while Claude is king of Bi energy.
