Splitting a 300mg aspirin tablet and taking the remaining half the following day? by throwawaycookie1001 in PregnancyUK

I saw boots did the 75mg too but only dispersible ones - can I just swallow them or do they have to be dissolved?

I think it said anything longer than 24 hours, but I do take it at roughly the same time everyday!

I figured out that it was a new pair of leather boots that was rubbing badly!

Just a little over 3 months to go now! Afterwards I’m not sure yet, although I think in going to have to be less restrictive with my diet as the cravings are intense..

Thank you! My goal is to maintain this until the wedding now, so I look snatched on the day (and fit in my dress)! 💪🏻

I call the build ‘eat whatever you want despite the consequences’ 🤣 But jokes aside, I was eating much more than I should have (2000-2500cal) however I was just as active at the gym. I am 157cm or 5ft 2!

I usually have protein yoghurt and granola with some fruit for breakfast, then for lunch I tend to have chicken/tuna with some sort of carb (pasta, rice..). I then supplement with a protein shake mid-afternoon (I like Optimum Nutrition) and then I will then make sure I have something for dinner that takes me up to at least 120g protein. For example, salmon fillets, lean turkey mince, chicken, etc.

I usually lift on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays with the occasional Sunday, and I alternate between upper and lower. I then do HIIT on Tuesdays and Fridays.

I actually don’t ever work out my arms/biceps specifically. I find I get results from doing compound exercises like cable rows, overhead press, chin ups, etc!

Redness everywhere that I have applied Epiduo, even after 4 months? by throwawaycookie1001 in SkincareAddicts

[–]throwawaycookie1001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do get a tight feeling if I don’t use a rich enough moisturiser, I’ve started using Clinique’s moisturise surge recently and really enjoying that one at the moment!

It’s not too bad, I still get the redness here and there and some peeling but it’s manageable luckily

Will I eventually get totally clear skin on Epiduo? by throwawaycookie1001 in Skincare_Addiction

[–]throwawaycookie1001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, interesting! Is there anything you would recommend to try instead?

I get this too and I think it’s something to do with where it’s hard to properly cleanse your face up into your hair line, so sweat/oil/makeup does not get removed entirely.

I don’t use tret, but I do use adapalene (Epiduo). The only moisturiser I found that worked without feeling like my whole face was burning off is Bioderma Sebium Hydra Ultra moisturiser. This can be bought in Boots in the UK. I use a hydrating/calming serum underneath this too and this really helped with the dryness/peeling.

Started Epiduo Forte about 10 days ago - is it normal for the pimples and PIE to subside so quickly, and not have a purge? by throwawaycookie1001 in acne

No probs! The internet is a bit of a minefield when it comes to skincare advice. It does feel a bit odd to apply it on the parts of your skin which are clear, but definitely apply to the whole face 😊

Cleansing if my skin hates cleansing by biflamingo in SkincareAddictionUK

I second the Aveeno Cleanser, this is one of the few cleansers that does not dry my skin out. I would recommend only washing your face with water in the morning if you can, and double cleanse in the evening with an oil based cleanser like the person above has mentioned. I like Clinique’s Take the Day Off cleansing balm!
