I HAVE THE COPPER UGLIES 😭😭

[JourneyToPerfection]

I started with tret every 2-4 days at night because I easily got sunburned or face peeling if i applied too often and/or go outside directly after applying it. Ghk face cream every morning and ghk face cream every night that I didn’t apply tret. After a few weeks I adjusted fully and could handle tret nightly and hgk every morning

But damn did I get a lot of minor face sunburns the first couple weeks the day after applying tret

Tret makes my skin super dry, even using it twice a week I’m persevering though

Thank you. I've been making all of my personal care products except toothpaste and deodorant for a decade, but I just finished having a professional fix my hair after I trainwrecked it in an amusing attempt to go from red-black to blonde, and I'm suddenly reconsidering my long running stance against letting the professionals handle it.

(If anybody trainwrecks their hair in the DFW area and wants to know which Supercuts has a girl that can fix it, DM me, cause god damn my hair is lovely now.)

I cut my own fringe during a drunken/depressive episode then got my licence photo taken the day after .. 2/3 times I get carded, there’s a comment about “wow, not the best picture” or “must’ve been having a rough day”. I continue to cut my own hair, but only when I’m sane and not drinking

Sandwich it. Clean dry skin. Light layer of moisturizer. Give it a few minutes to absorb. Tret. Give it a few minutes to absorb. Light layer of moisturizer.

Sunscreen is your best friend if you're Tret'ing.

This made me laugh out loud. My first real motorcycle was a 2018 Rebel 500. That thing was so fun.

I learned to ride on a Rebel 250! My first bike was a Virago 535 because it felt the most like the rebel I'd ridden in the class I took.

I cut my own fringe during a drunken/depressive episode

I'm always sober when I cut my own hair, but I'd be lying if I said I'd ever decided to cut it more than five minutes before I do it. My mom says it's a family trait; I have three aunts (not all on one side of the family, either) who randomly go into the bathroom and cut their hair off when they're feeling down. My mom is so mystified. All I can do is shrug and say "IT HELPS SO MUCH."

Hope it gets better for you.

I plan to start ghkcu too but scared of stings that are expected. Thanks for the zinc reminder.

Not everyone gets the sting. I feel nothing from GHK-Cu. My first batch I had tested, so I know it's legit, plus my friend who ordered at the same time gets a reaction. So you might be one of the lucky ones. One time I was at the end of my vial and injected 6mg just to finish it off and then I felt the burn so I'm not completely immune to it, I just need large quantities lol.

Do you get ISRs at all

Yeah mate pretty much although to be fair, the one time I visited America (New York) I was propositioned by a prostitute who wanted me to come and work with her promised I’d make a lot of money. Never had that happen in Aus before hahaha

..

I said no, of course

Oooh thanks for the tip! I was told by my dr not to use my other usual face products with it but I feel like some hyaloronic acid serum under would help

The way I see it, it’s taking a modicum of control back when we’re spiralling or angry about something. In my early 20’s I had 1/3 of my hair shaved off to look like the hot chick from Vikings. Pulled it off pretty well, but growing it back out was a bitch

Sunscreen is your best friend if you're Tret'ing.

THIS! If you are not wearing sunscreen you are just damaging the fresh skin you are trying to reveal. Tret is (honestly) pointless without wearing sunscreen everyday. It is a cycle of damage, new skin, repeat.

I hate American sunscreens. They are heavy and greasy. Korean and Japanese sunscreens were game changers, and I no longer hate using sunscreen.

I like Australian ones as well. I've had melanoma 4 times, and I know there will be plenty more. I SUCK at applying it on my body but always do my face because of the tret/taz.

I FINALLY reconstituted my GHK for pinning and made my GHK/Snap/Synake serum last night. Planning to test drive the topical tonight, and pin either tomorrow or over the weekend since I have a cortisone shot for my shoulder in the morning I don't want to mix with.

 

[WholesomeApril]

My skin always looks way more glowy when I add GHK. My friends say I look more hydrated. This intern makes my skin more oily, therefore more prone to pimples. So it’s kind of a catch 22 for me.

Most of the time I just cycle, the BPC/TB by itself.

I need corpos to put the money in and for the FDA to hurry tf up and approve new filters. OR STOP BLOCKING NON-AMERICAN FORUMLAS FOR IMPORT. I have a couple of tubes for now but I’m not looking forward to the search when they’re done

The FDA and their antantiquated filters (and lack of approval) I have a couple of places I order from. Both are pretty easy, with large (well stocked) websites.

There is one sunscreen producer who just removed the word "sunscreen" on their packaging to make it compliant...it's available on Amazon....if I can just remember the name lol.

I only know of Canmake lmao. FDA has looser standards for cosmetics

Simple ingredients. NO ACTIVES. I use SoonJung or Embryolisse.

I REPEAT: DO NOT USE ACTIVES.

Damn, it seems like there’s a niche market here for an Aussie sunblock supplier
