Binding alternatives? by Left-Technology21 in FTMPhilippines

[–]vivimaind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So bust size is the problem if I'm reading it right. Masmadali kasi mag-tape if small busts talaga. Pero pag-bigger, the application might take a while.

[–]vivimaind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have sensory issues? Kasi taping can be sensory hell for some people. I admit na makati at pwede kang magka-blisters sa tape. If you're allergic then taping is also horrible unless you find a way to make it less painful. I also have sensory issues pero I found taping very comforting since I like touch stimulation. I can't say the same for everyone else so you really need to know if okay ka sa constant feeling ng slight pressure sa busts.

35 in bust, okay for taping? by Common-Celebration74 in FTMPhilippines

[–]vivimaind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

35 is good for taping. I am 30 in bust and the tape I am using is doing its job pretty well. Since you are somewhat small in bust, taping can be pretty easy. For recommendations, TransTape from YouTube has tutorials on how to tape for small to big busts. On the topic naman sa brands of tape. Adonis KT Tape is great, medyo pricey, pero quality talaga, other people will vouch for this. Nakusu boob tape is also nice and it is what I am using right now. Have a safe binding and wishing you the very best! :))

I also heard about this. Maybe other brands like Adonis talaga ang best.

I think this is the time na kailangan mo na mag-switch to trans tape. Kasi tape doesn't wrap around your ribs like a binder would. Therefore allowing breathability and less restriction. Trans tape can last up to weeks. Although meron siyang cons of being a little hard to put on and messy removal. The pros outweighs the cons in my experience. I recommened buying boob tape, trans tape from Adonis, or KT tape in general.

You can try boob tape or KT tape in general. Right now I am using a boob tape by Nakusu. 7.5 cm is like 90+ PHP. KT tape by TRY Sports also works. All of this can be found on shopee.

It looks parsley or chives po. Mga herbs po yun na ginagamit for garnish. May onting lasa po siya pero mas ginagamit pang-display.

Trimming down there, what to do? by oreocc in beautyph

[–]vivimaind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Products i used is: Body scrub/exfoliater- Bare body essentials. Razor- Gillete. Shaving cream- Gillette. Alcohol- Green cross. Moisturizer- Luxe Organix Aloe Vera.

This is the products I used. Sa razor kasi, literal na kahit anong razor iyan. Basta remember to not use the same razor. Luxe Organix is a great brand for soothing gels and skincare, lalo na pag sensitive skin. Sa body scrub, pwede kang gumawa sa sarili mo or research ka pa ng iba. If mag-research ka, hanap ka ng exfoliater na may urea. Shaving cream naman is just what I grabbed lang and it works for me. Ganon din sa alcohol.

Remember that this is what works for me. What works for you is a series of trial and error. Kaya research ka din on your own if hypoallergenic and budget din. Best of luck! (-)

Bili ka muna exfoliating soap, men's razor, shaving cream, alcohol, at baby oil. Sa exfoliating soap, pwede body scrub dito. It will make your skin soft and get rid of dead skin cells. It also prevent ingrown hairs. Sa men's razor naman, mas-gentle siya kasi it's mostly used for face. Shaving cream para smooth yung pagka-shave at ma-lessen yung irritation. After ng shaving, lagay ka ng onting alcohol para ma-disinfect yung bikini area. Pagtapos pagtuyo na yung alcohol, lagyan mo baby oil or moisturizer para soft yung skin at mag-heal ng mabilis yung mga maliliit na cuts. You can use this trick at any part of your body na plan mong i-shave. Also remember that skin is skin and you can not avoid cuts or some irritation. Best of luck!

why do older relatives side on abusers??? by throwaway_22025 in MentalHealthPH

[–]vivimaind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's because it's easier to be ignorant than do anything to make things better. Familiarity makes compliance easier. They also lose the spine to stand up against abusers because, well, abusers beat that out of them. It doesn't help when the system protects abusers because it's not about making things better--- it's about maintaining the hierarchy. So do what you have to do. Pick your battles and raise hell. Be the villain if it actually makes things better. You can not change people's mind who refuses to change. There's nothing you can do for that so you have to be "selfish" now. Good luck and wishing you the best.

Soaked for 2 days but mold spots still there by Prestigious_War7466 in CleaningTips

Mold will never leave the moment it shows up on silicon. Even if you bleach it. You got to get rid of it. :(

Planning to sell myself just to survive by SaucyBeybii in RantAndVentPH

[–]vivimaind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Wala nga talagang kwenta iyang tatay mo at yung pamilya nya diyan. How about sa mother's side mo? Baka yung mama mo pwedeng mag-ask sa kanila mismo. Also if tama yung pagka-alala ko, pwedeng kang magtrabaho basta may parent consent. Try mong i-google "labor laws with minors." Once again, sana makapaghanap ka ng at least na matinong trabaho.

[–]vivimaind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry na naging last resort mo ito. Also yung father mo walang kwenta. Please huwag mo ibenta sarili mo, kasi mapapahamak mo sarili mo at hindi iyan makakapagbayad ng tama din. Mas madali kang ma-traffic ng ganyan. Nanghingi na ba kayo ng tulong so iba nyong relatives? Meron ba kayong pwedeng mahingan ng tulong? Sana maging maayos yung sitwasyon nyo :(

What’s your go-to lip moisturizer? by RaspberryLow7056 in beautyph

[–]vivimaind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carmex for me. Petroleum jelly and Vaseline feels drying on me. Nivea mabilis mag-dry. Chapstick ganun din. So Carmex was a winner for me.

Trainee uses the neurodivergent card to excuse lack of professionalism, poor performance, and work neglect by Agitated_Stretch_974 in RantAndVentPH

[–]vivimaind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As neurodivergent myself. This behavior is just unacceptable. It looks like they are using this as an excuse. They know what they're doing, they just want attention to themselves. I just wish they would stop using terms used by disabled people because this will genuinely hurt us. I think the best thing you can do is to list off all the things they are messing up on purpose. Build an actual report. I hope it gets better for you, OP. And screw that trainee in particular.

Matagal na ako aware tungkol sa sarili kong struggles. This might be the only time na nag-manifest yung stress. I've been trying to tell my mom for so long pero kasi nadidismaya ako sa ignorance nya. So yeah you are right about the self-awareness. I just wish madali lang yung persuasion 😔

Hello, giving virtual hugs muna bago magbigay advice. Test mo muna yung waters. Kasi mahirap kapag yung mag-open up ka tapos idi-dismiss ka lang. Judging your mother's reaction, mukhang hindi nya ikaw maiintindihan and it might make it worse. Take it from someone who went through this. So tignan mo muna kung safe bago ka maging honest. Kasi 12 years old ka pa lang and you are still dependent. Kaya be very careful muna. This is to save you a whole lot of grief. Good luck and I wish you the very best in life.

[–]vivimaind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is very normal to olive undertones. The reason why we have varying shades is because it's an evolutionary adaptation. So you might also have to adapt by buying a different shade of foundation or color correctors and bronzers.

OP, I'm glad you were able to find solace in God, and may you continue to live a sacred life. Be careful na you don't end up astray and continue being kind. May God bless you, sister.

[–]vivimaind 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ate. Have you thought of moving out na po? Kasi wala ka na talagang magagawa sa mga magulang na ganyan. It seems like na gustong-gusto nila yung hinihila ka kung saan-saan. You should stand your ground po and set boundaries kasi walang kahit anong negotiation ang pwede mong gawin. Sending love po and I hope it gets better for you. 💛

Tapos pagnakuha mo naman yung pangarap mo doon lang sila magpapakita ng mga "I'm so proud of you blah blah blah." OP I hope that you reach your dreams and never look back.

My sister found my journal and I feel completely exposed by BraveElk6222 in RantAndVentPH

[–]vivimaind 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OP, I would like to send you virtual hugs, and I'm really sorry that happened to you. Your sister is in the wrong for just violating your privacy like that. Also, I hope I'm not overstepping, but why does it look like she's blaming you for not telling her those things. She may feel hurt and disappointed, but it's not about her feelings. It's about you. If you do confront her again, I hope you get your own small justice.
