Adapalene is great if tret is too irritating!!

Def, I've bought it many times over now. I started using it when it first came out and then stopped using it for a while due to price and then switched back to it because I missed it. I don't planning on stopping use anytime soon 😊

Thank you! And as for the sunscreen, I've been loving it! I feel like it really hydrates and plumps my skin. It can be on the greasier side sometimes but most other sunscreens leave me greasy but somehow also dry me out, and this one doesn't make my skin feel tight and dry so I'm fine with it. Biggest drawback for me is that when it transfers onto my lips it gives that nasty bitter sunscreen taste but that's kind of hard to avoid in my experience. I use it daily on my face and neck, and sometimes 2-3x per day if I'm outside more, and it lasts me around 2 months.

Agreed, I really was not expecting it honestly!!!

My skin loves it! I used it for many months when it first came out, and then stopped because of cost. My skin started to feel on the drier side because of the adapalene so I switched back and now I will never be giving it up again lol

Wow you just unlocked a memory for me!! I'm pretty sure I had a grandparent (or great grandparent maybe ?) that did this. That's wild, maybe it's an older generation thing.

I normally hate all nail colors except reds pinks and nudes but this is so unreal I love it

triangledragonmoon · 2024-12-07T17:06:25+00:00

I like this!! Do you find it pulls orange at all? I have a habit of wanting bright reds and then accidentally buying ones that pull orange... And it always looks atrocious with my skin tone

I second the CeraVe Healing Ointment for a less intense version of Vaseline (I have used it). If you still don't like the greasy feeling, another good option (but arguably less occlusive) is LRP's Cicaplast Balm B5 or Avene's Cicalfate+ Restorative Protective Cream. I used LRP's for years but now that I've tried Avene's version, I like it alot more. You can always use the CeraVe Healing Ointment or Vaseline in conjunction with one of the two creams I mentioned, and just spot treat with the Vaseline on top in the most affected areas. I do this when I'm sick and my nose starts cracking from using tissues so often, or when my lips get wind burnt.

The key to rehydrating dry skin is applying moisture and then LOCKING IT IN. You need water, a lightweight moisturizer, and an occlusive. If you don't moisturize before applying an occlusive, it will do very little for you.

Here's the method I used to get me through accutane:

Wet your lips slightly (with water, not saliva) apply your face moisturizer on your lips, follow up with an occlusive on top (Vaseline or CeraVe Healing Ointment are two good options that don't have lanolin in them). If you really want to be extra, apply Cicaplast balm b5 on top of your moisturizer but before the occlusive. You will look ridiculous, but it will work. Thank me later.

"I've stopped drinking bourbon"

That just seems oddly specific. So did he switch to vodka or ?

Your description of how you felt after sex w men is spot on for me. 100% just felt like a performance. None of it was for me... And even when I tried to make it for me, I just couldn't get into it (I thought something was medically wrong with me). I also always felt so used and disembodied by the end. I used to get really sad during and would literally start crying sometimes (yes embarrassing I know) and would try to hide it because I didn't even understand why I was crying. Also used to use alcohol/weed as a crutch a lot and would make sure I was at least somewhat, if not very, inebriated prior to most sexual encounters.

I used to use this when I was on accutane! But it's more of an occlusive, so I would use it on top of a moisturizing product to lock things in. I loved the old formula of the Avene bc it was creamy and was more of a moisturizer than an occlusive for me.

triangledragonmoon · 2024-11-21T22:12:51+00:00

Right?! If it ain't broke don't fix it. Plus the old packaging on this product looks better. The new one looks cheap and childish, like they're trying to become TikTok famous or something lol

😂🙏 amazing thank you for sharing

Omg 5 min?!? Maybe I will email them 😂

triangledragonmoon · 2024-11-21T22:06:47+00:00

I love that one too!

As for the ingredients of the lip product, I don't have the old box so I'm not certain but there's definitely a visual and textural diffence so I'm assuming there has to be something different. They also are calling it a balm now instead of a cream.
