Fix Up! Look Sharp v11: "there's like 8 of us here" - General

[QUOTE=Mbbird;50182435]It's honestly so comprehensive and frankly niche to the point where I find it hard to get practical help from the forum. There's never a simple answer to anything from this community. They're all so into health products that they'll rarely ever give a couple off-the-shelf recommendations, and everyone's posted routine is like 4-5 products all from unique, organic, and Internet vendors. I'm not saying my cetaphil and moisturizer routine is any better, but I don't think a more complex routine would be proportionally more effective.[/QUOTE] Whenever I hear about people that use 4-5 skin products in their morning routine it makes me think of Patrick Bateman. When I was in high school though I had a terrible time with my facial skin being super dry and some days it would peel. A ton of products just irritate my skin. I seem to have found a balance with just Aveeno shave cream and Nivea aftershave that keeps my face healthy.

I use Cera Ve non-comedogenic for mosturizing my face, taking ampicillin twice a day, benzoyl peroxide when I shower and trentinoin ointment at night after cleansing my face. Acne has gotten considerably better since I've been doing this. Routine takes forever and is really annoying though :(

[QUOTE=Lone Wolf807;50177682]I was in Germany last summer and it seemed like EVERYONE was wearing jean shorts, is there something I'm missing in Europe???[/QUOTE] same in the UK, I have a couple pairs myself from last summer. most of the chains that carry them i.e Topman, River Island have them with two folds at the bottom the jorts hate seems to be an American phenomenon

Tried the man bun thing that buzz feed can't shut up about. Applied filter to make myself look tan. [Img]http://i.imgur.com/VdOdxRb.jpg[/img]

don't think your hair is long enough for that.

Yeah I can't get all of it quite yet so I did a style similar to this: Just with cleaner lines and a little lower. [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/59/e9/df/59e9df651cdbd9fc743d5683fdae0a86.jpg[/img]

it's like a man bun and a mullet joined forces

Maybe I shouldn't bun it until it's long enough to get it all, honestly was just getting impatient with just wearing it normal, also it always getting in my face ect. I've seen people do the undercut man bun thing so it was more based on that.

You could probably just like pull it into a regular bun.

Might just be me but I think it looks a lil bizarre without the undercut if you don't want the undercut it'd probably look better all tied up in a normal bun

The photo was a joke, I don't actually style it like that. [editline]23rd April 2016[/editline] Figured my expression was enough of a giveaway.

then how do you actually style it

[QUOTE=LaughingStock;50182395][URL]https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/wiki/sca_routine[/URL] look through reddit for skincare related stuff, they're fairly comprehensive.[/QUOTE] On the topic of skincare. Has anyone has any success treating dark circles with a Vitamin C cream? I keep seeing it recommended on Reddit but I rarely see any success stories. I have very dark under eye circles, I'm 99% sure it's not something hereditary as none of my family or relatives suffer from this problem. They're red/brownish and I've had them for about ~2 years now. Really depressing looking back at old pictures from 2013/early 2014 when I didn't have them. Huge confidence blow. I'm caucasian, most people I've seen with the same intensity as mine are either middle-eastern or indian. I drink plenty of water (2-4L/day), I get plenty of sleep(7-12hr a day minimum, though I'm chronically tired and almost always exhausted.) Not sure if I should book an appointment with my local doctors office or a dermatologist. Thought I'd try my luck here before I jump on to Reddit.

being chronically tired/always exhausted even with a good amount of sleep and a regular sleeping pattern can be a sign of some sort of deficiency or other underlying issue. go get it checked out to be safe.

[QUOTE=Eric95;50184576]then how do you actually style it[/QUOTE] I just part it to the side, but it's getting a bit too long so it doesn't look good anymore, might trim it just a tiny bit to clean it up but I still want to try growing it out, I've had it short my whole life. Plus the better half is into it for some reason. I wouldn't do it otherwise. Not really sure what to do with it, it's hit the awkward stage. [t]http://i.imgur.com/bzRTuhg.jpg[/t] [editline]23rd April 2016[/editline] I have eye circles too, I've had them my whole life, stuck with them, whatever, own it. The lighting helps in this picture.

Yeah that's how I've been dealing with it up until now, I'll do it again.

Usually it's diet/exercise related. I've been cycling like a madman for the last 10 months. Never felt more tired because I'm in the middle of a challenge where I have to climb 5500m. But when I stop or do it in moderation I have so much energy. So yeah maybe try some cardio, I recommend cycling and/or swimming because they are fun and you forget about the pain you are in. Also better for your knees. Doctor knows better than me obviously.

[QUOTE=TonyTheBean;50184724]i'm in the same boat right now. blood test after blood test, nothing found yet.[/QUOTE] could be chronic fatigue syndrome

idk, i've kept the same consistent diet and exercise pattern for the past 6 months. problems have only shown up in the past month or so.

I just sold one of my supreme shirts and usually I feel some regret when I sell one, but now I don't feel that. I guess I'm a cold heartless bastard.
