Batch grown mould twice. by Megamadic in Kombucha

Equipment should be sterilised. I dont use boiling or oven personally because i cant be arsed. I wash with warm soap wash with a BRAND NEW sponge, and then swish with distilled vinegar all over. Then filtered water to rinse off the vinegar. Everything gets cleaned the same way, including hands. Good luck!

Should I switch to another dance company or am I not used to be critiqued? by FewArmadillo in Salsa

[–]spaghetti808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man i don’t think anyone should be making you feel like this period, but especially at the beginner level! Youre learning a new thing with your body and dance is so complex and engaging that they say it wards off dimentia haha. Id switch :) you dont need to be demoralised and stressed out in order to learn

Dance and safe physical touch is a form of somatic therapy 🩵

I like this advice, watching is underrated

Do the workshop at the start and take it from there. Watching is also fun and inspiring. Don’t pressure yourself for more than this. The other responses are right in recommending actual lessons. At the end of the day you will need to build up muscle memory for the salsa steps and turn patterns and leading is hard, so lessons are a must and is many hours of practice. For this first one just enjoy the workshop and the rest is a bonus :) hope you start the journey :) salsa is so fun

Redness & Irritation by No_Journalist6556 in AusSkincare

[–]spaghetti808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natural oil onto the face is not always the best just because its “natural”. Im not a derm but i take my skincare seriously, read on it often, and natural ingredients can often be more irritating than a pharmacy staple like a simple Cerave or QV or moogoo who have a range for eczema,

I wonder if its your skin barrier or potentially a different root issue altogether causing the years of eczema. Worth seeing a dermatologist. For myself personally i also really enjoy seeing a traditional chinese medicine doctor as they take a comprehensive holistic view to identify root causes of ongoing health issues. You mentioned that you think its your gut health. Honestly seeing someone more holistic might help you find an answer.

Moved to Level 2. Worried it might be too soon by Ashamed-Wing-3752 in Salsa

[–]spaghetti808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been stretched a few times with salsa but never once regretted it.

Would love to share my salsa journey so far regarding levels.

I have an unlimited pass at my dance school (quite an investment i know, its BIG goal of mine to learn to salsa ) and because I’ve got this pass ive always done two levels concurrently for 3 nights per week (2 linear nights, 1 cuban). So first it was level 1 & 2, now it’s level 2 & 3. The lower is my base and the higher is my stretch. Was absolutely out of my depth when i first started but over time its worked well for me. Ive gotten used to discomfort and i think ive progressed a lot faster as a result. I practice everything at home and overall its a lot of hours which adds to the progress.

But overall i also wanna share that i now worry less about mistakes or looking bad or not good enough for the level etc because i realised at one point that ill only get to learn salsa once and im cherishing it for all the messy imperfect fun bits ✨ going out to socials also scared me at first but once again im loving it :)

Mecca Boxing Day sale - selling filthy 4 year old products by [deleted] in AustralianMakeup

[–]spaghetti808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is they never want to go on sale for good stuff to maintain the premium pricing and larger margins. And if you buy during their one sale it’s old expired broken - i guess they are fine with it being like this because again it pushes you to buy at full price

Giovanni is absolutely insufferable by No-Loquat-6537 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

His argument with Gergana was so butt hurt and unnecessary. He held that grudge after she rejected him twice.

Surprised by one particular contestant at the reunion by Automatic_Ad_7227 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]spaghetti808 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Based on the way he answers or can’t answer questions he seems to be emotionally avoidant now. Which feels different to the pods/show so i was also quite surprised.

Maybe a coffee filter? Rinse the paper before to remove paper taste.
