Thank you for the detailed response! I will see if I can find Bondi Sands sunscreen.

Even though my skin would be fine without tretinoin, I find that it is the only ingredient that makes a significant difference in an otherwise low-maintenance routine.

Good skincare tips, thanks! I heard positive things about Korean skincare products, particularly how they have lighter and less greasy sunscreens. Is there a non-cosmetic one that you can recommend?

For my routine, I wash my face with a cleanser and apply moisturizer in the morning and at night, both from La Roche-Posay toleriane line. At night I use tretinoin 0.025% gel in between cleansing and moisturizer.

I could start an occasional question or discussion on those subjects, although I wouldn’t be able to do it regularly. At the very least, I would be interested in commenting if anyone else decides to post! With a large enough user base, makeup and skincare could eventually become their own communities.

Oh, they almost never taste as good as they look on the packaging, haha. Nothing wrong with simple comforts once in a while. Sometimes I use those odd flavors as inspiration in my own cooking and baking or try to recreate the recipe.

I did a quick search online for caffeine-free energy drinks and saw a brand called Sparking Ice mentioned a few times as having variants without caffeine, as well as Monster Unleaded.

Even though I try to avoid processed snacks, the weird novelty flavors are what tempt me. I support innovation in food :D

That’s a more positive answer than “handlebars”, so let’s assume “yes”.

Good take. Some things are not even worth engaging with and my life has been much calmer since that realization.

Going back to the shower thought, turning off your hearing aids during an argument is like a live version of putting someone on mute.

Language learning is one thing that can be done when you only have your phone on you but want to be productive. Browsing Wikipedia can also lead you down some interesting rabbit holes where you end up learning something new. I’ll also use downtime to clean up my files and photos.

 

Talk nerdy to me :D
