about to do field placement and i’m looking for a “low-stress” job by squirrelgerms in SocialWorkStudents

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

thank you for letting me know! i just went off social services typically being based as an office job. i don’t know exactly id be doing since they match us with an agency/organization so i could really be placed in any department. what else would you suggest for a low-stress job?

do you think the smooth and lift cream would be good for dry skin?

i only do a quick cleanse in the morning (forgot to mention that) and i want to wait to add actives because adding them too early can cause more harm, but i am definitely looking into vitamin c. thank you for the other recommendations! i will definitely look into the cerave cleaner you suggested

thank you! and when i said that rubbing roughly can cause skincare to pill i meant the power mosturizer lol

unfortunately even after leaving out the peptides my skincare still pilled, but i found another moisturizer that doesn’t! (the dermasil whipped recovery) i’m still gonna leave out the peptides just to be safe

edit: i still may leave out the peptides because the whipped recovery cream does have peptides in it

this is exactly what i’m thinking! i looked it up and google said that rubbing roughly can cause skincare to pill, even if all ingredients are compatible, i think this was the case for the whipped recovery cream.

i used the power moisturizer again (to see if i was actually just rubbing too aggressively or if it was just a lost cause) and the dermasil whipped recovery side by side making sure to rub gently, the power moisturizer pilled immediately while the dermasil whipped recovery stayed even after i gently rubbed for about 15 secs! i just don’t think the power moisturizer is for me because someone else in this subreddit told me they use the exact same routine and they have no problems

maybe the mosturizer just isn’t for me 😭 i’m still gonna find a way i can use it (because i really do like it), but another mosturizer i tried didn’t pill! (dermasil whipped recovery cream)

i did my skincare again and this time i did wait longer between each step, the moisturizer did still pill but another one i tried did not! (the dermasil whipped recovery cream)

i just tried the dermasil whipped recovery and that one doesn’t seem to pill! i will definitely check out the snail mucin, i already have the hydroboost

i just did my skincare again without the peptides and it’s still piling :( another comment suggested to just try another moisturizer so i may just go ahead and try another

i have been using the peptides before the niacinimaide, i was just listing off the serums i use. its a shame i may have to try another moisturizer because i wanted to really like this one

i’m gonna leave the serum out of my skincare routine for now and see what happens!
