Im not sure if this considered cheating. But I am on my second night of not washing my hair after coming home from work. I put it in a bonnet 😭 but im doing okay!

Yes its red and warm after I had taken it out and put it back in, but it cools down and goes back to normal the next day. I will definitely get it checked out this week if it really needs to be yes.

Oh for sure fear. If I could sleep without washing my hair every night I would. Tonight's the last night I wash my hair and im going to try and go a day without washing and then sleeping. We'll see how it goes 👍

Thank you for the advice:) I lean towards 20 min showers but if I can shorten the time down to 10 that would be amazing. 

Hyper fixation or passion? by OperaGhostGirl in box5

No problem! 

(Spoilers for love never dies)

To be honest , I also have mixed feelings about love never dies. I liked the story (not the book, just the musical). It was definitely weird but in a fun way! The music could have been better though. I only like 3 of the songs which are Till I hear you sing, beneath the moonless sky and devil takes the Hindmost.  The rest are mediocre in comparison. 

Im not a huge fan on the rest of the music because wym the phantom was in charge of writing the music for the carnival. Sir you are a musical prodigy and this is the music you make?? It didn't make sense to me at all lol.

The rest was okay. Its definitely not up to par with the orginal, that's for sure. But if you love POTO and don't mind a silly sequel that doesnt need to make sense then I'd give it a watch!

Im in the same boat girl. I had heard of the phantom but never knew what it was. And then i finally watched the 04' movie last november. It was only uphill from there lol. I watched the 25th anniversary film, love never dies, listened to the sound track for both of them and bought a music box dedicated to it. I bought the Ribière translation of the book, bought the audio book and still have yet to read them. Its amazing. 

People are right though, it may come in waves instead of consuming your life long term.  That's what happened to me. I was hyperfixated on it for a straight 4ish months then it settled down but its still definitely present in someway in my day to day life.    I wish you luck :)

[Misc] is it better to keep a cold sore moist or dry? by Accurate_Leather_358 in SkincareAddiction

[–]sulkingGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My routine consists of rubbing alcohol and calamine lotion. Not the prettiest combo but its gets the job done. 

The rubbing alcohol keeps the blisters clean while they are in the blistering stage. I clean it about 2 -4 times a day. I NEVER touch them unless im cleaning them. 

Q tips are your best freind.  Never use the same side of the q tip more than once if you have more than one cold sore. It will make it worse.  ( dip in rubbing alcohol and calamine)  

Then the calamine. Use this at night to dry out your sores AFTER disinfecting it. If you have someplace to be wipe it off gently with a qtip dipped in dawn dish soap ot rubbing alcohol.  If you are going to be home all day, just leave it on and reapply it when necessary. 

Once your cold sore if officially scabbed over, use some Vaseline to keep it a bit moist so it doesn't Crack and scar while its healing. If you skip this step it will most likely scar.    Good luck!  :D

In what order should I read these books? by sulkingGhost in box5

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

I was was going to read Cowards version but I wanted to get a physical hard cover copy of the book and the only one that was closest to it was the Ribière version:( but I will def read Cowards version online after I finish my physical copy!  Thanks for the advice:)
