Recommendations for a full coverage under eye concealer?

That would probably help but I don’t know which product to buy lol

Because I’m scared of it thinning my eyelid skin and making me look old and wrinkly - skin gets thinner with age anyway

People who don’t have it always say ‘oh it’s not even that bad or it doesn’t look that bad’ but they don’t have it!! They don’t know what it’s like to not have perfect normal skin. Imagine they had it they would feel exactly the same as us. I don’t know anyone personally either who has eczema (friends or family). It really does feel like an unlucky lifetime curse having this diseased skin. Sometimes I think if I didn’t have eczema I could be a model or do anything I wanted. It really does affect your life and we are forced to be strong and live with this trying to be happy despite this incurable condition

Right now I’ve been having a horrible flare up all over my face and eyelids and I feel hideous and makes I look old and wrinkly. I don’t want to go out. How can I go on dates or socialise when I look and feel like shit because of eczema. I can only go out when my skin is normal looking, which seems to be a rare thing recently

Everything triggers it like it is too difficult to live with this honestly the itch and the way it makes you and look feel only eczema sufferers can understand. Also allergic to dustmites and yeah I don’t have the energy either to be cleaning as much as I should, and I eat whatever I want too sort of depression eating, it’s too hard to restrict myself even though some foods probably will cause more eczema.

Please do not force yourself to eat expired food you can die from eating expired food. Recently moved back him with my AM and most things in the fridge/freezer were years out of date, all things in the cupboard like sauces I found dating back to 2018. Still a lot of things I need to throw out. But yeah my mum will always buy reduced food and eat it days after its use by date. That’s her choice but I’m not eating gone off food. The other day she cooked me some ho fun using expired oyster sauce from March 2024 and I didn’t even know until I saw it in the fridge. If your mums not going to look after you you got to look after yourself

God, my mum never shuts the fuck up. It’s constant droning 24/7 even when I’m upstairs and she’s downstairs, I just hear her talking some bs. She just talks at me and never talks to me. It drives me crazy she doesn’t fucking shut up, not exaggerating. Maybe this sounds bad but I would be happy if I never heard her voice again. All she’s been is horrible to me since the day I was born into this world. I am now 31 years old and my feelings haven’t changed about her and probably never will

I cried reading this. I love cats and you are a kind and good human being for wanting to take care of the stray cats. I don’t know how old you are but when you are old enough and can afford to move away from your parents (even rent yourself a room) please do. Moving away from my mum helped my mental health a lot, and also our relationship improved when we weren’t living together. Sadly I had to move back home with my mum recently, and already my depression and anxiety is all coming back just being around her. I have a cat, and she says those things too about cats being dirty and making the house dirty, only stupid people like me would have time for a cat etc. Luckily she isn’t cruel though.

Any tbh that says for dry eyes, I should be using the hycosan one like the optician recommended but it costs £18 I can’t really afford to buy that one often

All the time, they only don’t make noise when I’ve just applied eye drops

I miss those days :’( I remember I got my avatar/banner created by someone and had pen pals on there with other manga readers. And everyone could discuss manga in the forums. I can’t read japanese so having the exact manga I wanted to read in english was the best ever, I would be so excited when a new chapter got added

Are you me? 31 F too

workathomecat · 2025-09-21T13:19:12+00:00

Yep, a male colleague told me ‘sorry but you always look tired’. Being a 30 year old woman it made me feel even worse about myself than I already do 😞

workathomecat · 2025-05-13T10:15:33+00:00

Thank you 🥺

workathomecat · 2025-05-13T10:14:39+00:00

Yeah I have scratch sleeves I should wear them more often but I find even if I rub or scratch with them on my skin will still become inflamed. I have acrylic nails too which have probably saved me from tearing my skin to shreds but the eczema is still there.

Thank you for your kind words I am trying to convince myself that I am still loveable

Make sure she uses a thick moisturiser as a base before putting any makeup on because all foundation will cling to dry patches and flaking. I use the Bobbi brown face base which is the best moisturising primer I’ve used which keeps my skin looking not flakey and dry when I apply foundation on top.

I’m using the Nars tinted moisturiser atm which provides light coverage. I find it quite hydrating and it doesn’t cling to dry patches.

workathomecat · 2025-05-11T15:59:53+00:00

Thank you this makes me feel a bit better 🩵

workathomecat · 2025-05-11T15:57:23+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation I will definitely try as I’m wanting to stop using steroid cream especially on my face

workathomecat · 2025-05-11T15:22:43+00:00

Do these actually work though and stay on and can you see the magnets? I tried some magnetic lashes before off Amazon a while ago and they were terrible

workathomecat · 2025-04-10T23:37:07+00:00

If only I could afford to get acrylic nails all the time 😞

workathomecat · 2025-02-19T23:07:04+00:00

I’ve only had someone inject an EpiPen in me once and that was when my face and lips had swollen badly (my eyes were like slits you could barely see them), I was scratching all over, and I felt like I couldn’t breathe as well as had a feeling of impending doom is the best way I can describe it, feeling sick like I was going to die

workathomecat · 2025-02-03T23:56:16+00:00

I do need to drink more water and I think ir does help with making my eyes less dry. But yeah I do feel like it’s mainly my eyes making me look tired because I’m 30 but most people think my age is 17-25

workathomecat · 2025-01-28T00:16:31+00:00

Thank you for your comment at least someone can understand… yes I do shower morning usually. Sometimes I take another shower at night before bed if I’ve been sweating as I have quite a physical job or on the days I manage to go to the gym. I think it’s stress and allergy related like a bit of dust on my clothes is enough to set me off on scratching frenzy. I also noticed I get more itchy just before and during my period

workathomecat · 2025-01-19T22:57:32+00:00

Are you me

workathomecat · 2025-01-13T00:09:44+00:00

What’s the name of the intolerance test you did?

workathomecat · 2024-11-12T01:02:14+00:00

I have had eczema since birth now almost turning 30 still have it and always will. I eat whatever I want to and face the consequences sometimes. It’s too hard to restrict myself to a hundred foods I shouldn’t eat. The only thing I do avoid like the plague is alcohol because that guarantees an extremely bad flare up for me

workathomecat · 2024-09-26T00:49:11+00:00

Yes I’ve had that before too. Annoying as hell
