suncream, zits and wrinkles: rolling skincare thread?

best movie!
my face is doing ok but i think i chemical burned a little area near my lip because it was flaky this morning

Yeah I sometimes get the lip irritation thing :(

looks like i got scab face but that's better than zits

at least atm it is
please no faces of meth photos

Suddenly got red dots, like tiny broken blood vessels maybe, all round both eyes. They're all over the eyelids as well as under and next to both eyes. I didn't have them at 11am yesterday, and I did when I looked in a mirror at 4pm yesterday. WTF? They're still there this morning. Not painful, and nothing else going on except for a sore throat.

You can get them from any kind of strain that builds up pressure in your head (I don't know the technical term). I've had them from vomiting and coughing for sure.

yep. they should clear up in a couple of days, assuming yr coughing subsides

Are they itchy? Are they under the skin, or swollen spots?

When I vomit, I get black eyes from burst blood vessels. They looked really awful. Last time I vomited, I pressed my hands under my eyes and didn't get the black eyes. I've thought about putting an ice pack over my eyes next time I have to puke, if possible.

Sorry but I loled at "When I vomit, ______" dependent clause.

LOLing at being able to pause and get an icepack prior to puking.

My vomiting episodes have almost exclusively been significant life events and they involve a lot of to-do, e.g., denial, bargaining (actual praying, tho I'm an atheist), whimpering, much more denial, crying, preparing a kneeling towel, cleaning the toilet, black eye abatement, and finally, actually vomiting. It wouldn't be hard to throw an ice pack into the event.

I suppose not in that scenario.

They're not itchy, and not swollen, and they seem to be very slightly faded? Not sure yet. I'll find out when I get off this overnight bus.

Je55e, I'm familiar with denial prior to vomiting!

I get those whenever I have a particularly violent vomiting sesh.

so I am using this really mental woman's homemade face cream for night and it's actually kind of blowing my mind?? her website is TOTALLY CRAZY. It also smells WEIRD. I have no idea what the ingredients are.

dang she sounds shady! glad it's working for you though

what if it's just mayo

It is kind of a light beige color, really sticky consistency, and smells kind of metallic-y. Its very strange. I am sure it's a BLESSED POTION by LOUISE LONGHAIRS. I also bought her wacky shampoo because I heard it's just incredible. I am not that impressed with the shampoo yet.

like, I wouldnt be surprised at all if the shampoo is just johnson and johnson baby shampoo. It kinda smells the same, even.

blood vessel things seem to be fading, so yay.

what if it's just mayo

lololol

it's "wholistic"

lol

Apparently it's not mayo

WHERE do LONG HAIRS

that smiley face is a little menacing in its context...

sorry, I'm just slowly working my way through this site and every couple seconds finding something special.

It is actually not alright to keep her "trade secrets" a secret if she is defining "trade secrets" as "ingredients."

Sorry "alright"

Yeh, I was wondering!

H2, what led to your using this lady's product?

Now that we've roundly mocked the product and exposed this woman's illegal operation...

Well, it's working, apparently. Even if that means it's replaced H2's soul with a long-haired marketing demon.... Careful, y'all.

lol of COURSE she has a moon cycle widget on her site.

I know, isn't it mental? I was reading a PCOS message board and some of the PCOS-ers were talking about how awesome her shampoo is, and I just had to try it. I went for the skin cream kind of on a whim. GLAD I DID.

The most luxuriant wholistic mayo I've ever put on my face!

can someone in Toronto (ATTN: FINEFINEMUSIC) please go get their hairs done by louise longhairs, I guess she is really mean

http://www.longhairs.com/sites/default/files/CIMG0228b.jpg

also her products are insanely expensive

Wait, she's a mean hair stylist, too? Amazing. What a weirdo!

FFM's regular stylist just moved out of town! Great timing!

omg tempting

don't you want her to yell at you for dying your hair? sounds like a blast, right?

I do need a haircut (was thinking of getting one TODAY) but there is no price list (would've gone to reg stylist before she moved but need to cheap out) and I have to fill out an "about you" form before I can book an appointment! Xp

Hahaha no kidding. My hairstylist used ~organic~ dye so maybe I'll just be gently chastised. Or she will list out how the dye was not actually organic and aren't I glad she's here to tell me the truth??

I have to fill out an "about you" form before I can book an appointment!

Lmao

Mostly innocuous if self involved but:

"Do people try to pressure you into cutting your hair shorter for them or any other reasons? Tell Longhairs all about it... If this is preceeding a naturopathy-only session, list about what average doctor want to try to put you on. instead. : *"

...what?

I'm ready to pay pal you some money for a haircut from this woman, especially if we can fill out the about me form together as a group.

That's . . . that's totally incomprehensible?

doctor/want s/v disagreement is causing probs here

I like to think of my hair as long but I think I would get laughed out of there, also unsure where she wants me to indicate my hair's state vis-a-vis "yes/no"

"Do you presently have long hair (you get comments that tell you your hair's longer than most in society)? What do you think the state or length of your hair and skin is?: *
Yes
No
No, just coming for better hair and scalp"

what is the length of yr skin

Just tried to Google and was displeased to find out that there is no website where I can input my height and weight and find out the approximate surface area of my skin. Once I learn how to program, I know what website I'm starting!
