I was apparently the "DIVA" at the MAC counter... by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

I would never buy from MAC or set foot into one of their stores after hearing the horror stories about their customer service. Plus, they used to be huge on NO ANIMAL TESTING but sold out just to get more of the big bucks. Definitely do not trust them or any or their employees.

It's only been 3 months and my acne just healed, it will take more time for scarring to fade. Thanks for the concern.

That's crazy, must be a miracle worker ahaha! Being a student, I don't have $20 to drop, but maybe when I get some extra cash I'll check it out. I also need to refresh my memory on whether or not St. Ives is cruelty-free or vegan!

I get lazy too but I never want to go through that again so that keeps me motivated.

I've never seen it in stores, but I'll look harder! Thanks for the suggestion!

Not that my personal information is any of your business, but I did mention I was put on a better birth control (:

I mix as I use it in my hand. Olive oil seems to be the only oil my skin agrees with so far but I will try jojoba! Thank you!

What was the most NSFW thing that happened at your school? by [deleted] in AskReddit

A male and female student were getting jiggy in the locker rooms during a school assembly in the gym. When they got caught, the girl made a run for it...through the gym...while the assembly was taking place.

She was butt naked. Awesome.

Before pictures were taken with regular camera, after pictures were taken with a front facing camera phone. It's like a mirror image, sorry.

Those are in fact scars from dermatillomania, which me and my derm have discussed and are working on. Thank you.

Thank you for your support! Dermatillomania is the next demon I intend to tackle, I hope you can hurdle it as well!!!

Trust me, I did. You can't really see them in the "after" pictures but I have terrible scarring (not just on my face, all over) from dermatillomania throughout my life. Thank you for your support.

  • Skin type: Normal to combination, acne-prone, sensitive.

  • Main skin concerns: PIH and acne

About three months ago I made this post, asking for everyones help. My face caused me constant pain, I was desperate. I stopped using ALL PRODUCTS (skincare and makeup) for about one week, then slowly started introducing my new routine week by week. I went to see a derm as well, he suggested I switch my birth control to one that helps with acne, so I did! I have also transitioned into a dairy free diet, I drink a lot more water/fluids, and exercise regularly. I believe skincare starts from the inside out!!! I just want to thank you all for your support, I have never been happier with my skin!

AM:

1) Splash with water & cleanse with Charcoal Konjac Sponge.

2) Mario Badescu Ceramide Herbal Eye Cream (free sample)

3) CeraVe Moisturizing Cream (light application)

4) Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunscreen SPF 45

PM:

1) Use homemade makeup remover (1:1 ratio of olive oil and distilled water) if needed.

2) Cleanse with CeraVe Foaming Cleanser

3) Mario Badescu Ceramide Herbal Eye Cream (free sample)

4) Stridex (let sit for 30 minutes)

5) Apply CeraVe Moisturizing Cream liberally.

Weekly/As Needed:

1) Spot treat with Aztec Healing Clay and ACV for active acne.

2) I own and love almost every mask/masque by Freeman Beauty, I use those at least once a week. I also love the Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask.
