Hey, stick with that retin-a! Retin-A worked WONDERS for my acne scar indentations and it took about a year or so for me to see the effects. It started by clearing my skin, then it really helped my general oil production, then the acne scars started to fade, then my pocking was reduced. Having a series of glycolic…

No, that is Latisse, and that side effect is very rare, and only a certain eye color (which I can’t remember.) It was reported by a tiny tiny percentage of glaucoma patients (it original use) who used 12x the amount used for eyelash/brow growth. It was never reported in clinial trials of Latisse.

I used injectables for that.

It depends on the kind of peel and its strength. The 18% TCA peels I’ve done (my strongest so far) didn’t leave me burnt but the superficial layer of the skin dries up and peels off. It goes on for about 10 days, and it’s totally visible. But it’s worth it IMO, and something I don’t do often.

Well OIL and latex is no good! NO GOOD! the condom will break! Water based lube with condoms.

Once you see the scar you eye is immediately drawn to it, I fixate on mine all the time. I am curious to read more about Dermapen. I am considering just seeing what laser treatments are available through a Dermatologist but no doubt that will be pricey.

yeah, you’re not supposed to use any oils with condoms. My bf and I raw dog it so the coconut works for us (we’ve been tested and in a monogamous relationship).

Oils destroy condoms; the enzymes “eat” through the latex. Stick to a water-based lubricant.

It will degrade the latex and make the porous/vulnerable to breaking. So unless you’re just using them for looks, I’d say no.

Have you tried peels? The at-home TCA peels I’ve done have worked really well for the little depressions I had on my face.

By mild indentation, do you mean “ice pick” acne scars? I’ve got a combo of those, and “boxcar” scars from a horrible breakout three years ago. I’ve done six treatments of Dermapen (once monthly) and have seen great results!! Started at $125 for the whole face, then my esthetician reduced the cost to $75 and treatment…

Really only pigmentation. I get a little bit of plumping, but I’m sure it’s just extra moisture. Nothing lasting.

generally any kind of oil is a no-no for condoms. Water-based lubes only!

No, you’re thinking of the one Brooke Shields does commercials for, “Latisse.” This one’s not prescription strength, you can buy it on Amazon.

Yep, the only partner I ever had cry after sex did it after rather intense play that she had been the initiator of. I don’t know that the crash theory explains all responses like this, but it explains that one.

I was actually waiting for subdrop to be mentioned...was kind of surprised it never was.

I was a Special Effects devotee when I could still dye my hair fun colors. It lasted well enough that I’d usually shampoo my hair right after dying it to prevent it from leaking. I’d leave it on for about an hour, rinse really well, and then do a quick shampoo and condition. I never really had issues with it getting…

I just finished “All the light you cannot see” this morning. It was written beautifully. Highly recommended. 530 pages, so it’ll keep you occupied for a while.

I SWEAR by Overtone conditioners. Their colors are amazing, you can apply to wet or dry hair, they smell yummy AND the color payout is gorgeous. I’m currently using their Extreme Teal and Extreme Blue weekly deep conditioners but only need to reapply every 2-3 weeks.

Gradiation was the word I was looking for I think. My brain is completely dead today
