>>18715574I've had pimple on my nose for at least since beginning of this year what's up?
>>18715707maybe even longer
>>18715574I've been injecting GHK-CU 2mg almost every day for about two months and don't think I really notice much of a difference. Mayyybe.. But Idk. Will keep it up for another 2 months at least. Might also start tretinoin
morning:>eye cream>moisturizer >sunscreennight:>eye cream>moisturizer What can I do better?
>>18715780Also, I use a good facial soap to clean the skin before apply the products
I finally received my first tube of tretinoin, and im actually kind of terrified of using it. How bad was the purge for you guys? How many of you didn't experience a purge at all? Approximately how far away from my eyes do I need to keep my tret application? like can i apply it to my unibrow area or is that too close?
You women are lucky you don't have to regularly shave your face. I know all the techniques and tricks. hot water/steam, shaving cream, safety razor, cartridge, electric. Doesn't matter. It'll never be perfect. Shaving is just inherently irritating to the skin.
>>18716033purge is worse the worse your acne isminor acne minor purging no acne you might not see any at all
>>18715715>injecting GHK-CUyou should stick to proven methods
>>18715707>Squamous Cell Carcinomai'd have a dermatologist look at it to be safe
Thoughts on estriol cream?
>>18716131Women love beards. Why shave?
>>18715780You don't need an eye cream.
Why was this product hidden from me my entire life? Game changer.
>>18715574tret is actually so easy, why did noone ever tell me?just dont layer it. just dont mix it.
>>18716201I used to have dark circles and they are barely visible now
>>18716319which eye cream?
>>18716310really? your skin isnt melting off, catching fire, becoming grotesque with purging, etc?
>>18716352I experienced redness, small breakouts and skin wouldnt accept anything, no lotion, serum, nothing. it was dry but would get irritated if i applied the lightest lotion.stopped mixing or layering tret and all issues disappeared.
>>18716382How long have you been taking it? People make it sound so fucking scary, but even the issues that mentioned disappeared don't sound that bad. If I ever stop being a bitch I'll try just applying it directly, tho.
>>18716386weeks, the redness lasted months.no redness when I rawdog it
>>18716310Same with taz
>>18716248Is the game changer that it comes in a spray bottle or something else?
>>18716427That's a big part of it, also it just sinks in really easily without any residue.
>>18716425first time i hear about taz, should i swap from tret to taz?
>>18716558nvm its not available in EUdoes anyone have any lotion recommendations?ive been using the basic one from Greek, its the only one my tret skin likes atm. the basic cerave lotion that always worked (the one with the pump) gets rejected. the more basic oily ones get rejected too.also I need a fcking sunscreen...
I realize all sunscreens contain some sort of polymer/acryl-whatever xantham gum plastic shit.
>>18716135wdym? injecting it leads to more production of collagen. i think thats well known
>>18716310which concentration do you use? i have 6 tubes of .05% and have been holding off bc i have too much shit to do this summer for the "break out" phase or whatever
>>187166290.05%mind you ive been trying to use it for like 2 years on and off now tho but Im still fairly sure the layering is what caused the irritation for me.I suggest you at least do one trial of>light moisturizer>1h wait>apply vaseline around eyes and on lips for protection>apply tret and see where it takes you instead of holding off. you should be finePS: eating less and avoiding lots of sugar and not eating 5h before bed /intermittent fasting are mandatory. in other words dont bother with cosmetics if you dont got the basics nailed down
>>18716637>>apply vaseline around eyes and on lips for protectionnta but damn niggy that's a nice tip. never would have thought of that.
>>18716650learned the hard way. debilitating dry eyes. fortunately it has improved since taking care of it.same with the layering. apparently the official instructions state to rawdog it as well.
>>18716637>not eating 5h before bed /intermittent fasting are mandatorywait is this real. i think i do it by default but i thought it was broscience
>>18716728yes digestion costs energy and worsens your sleep quality which ups your inflammation markers.
I want to finally reduce the giant clogged pores on my nose. What can you recommend to actually finally clear out the pores before I can shrink them? I've tried cleaners and pore strips and they literally never work. The dirt just feels too deep for the strip to grab them.
>>18716939get one of those tools that lets you extract each blackhead individually
