if you use retinoids you should use spf even if you don't leave the house ever

julia you dumb blonde hoe no one in their right mind is putting on sunscreen INSIDE

unless you're like ultra super albino

I see the sun when I go to work at 4pm and that's the only time

I'm going on holiday next week and I'm packing 50+. I am the palest guy you've ever seen. I can get burnt if I think about the sun too much.

What is a retinoid

so apparently there's this big ball of light that blasts the world with light and heat for at least 12 hours a day? why am I only just now learning this?

Yes it's all of those things but also a projected hologram. You expect me to believe it's a giant ball of gas just sitting there? Get a brain. Hydrogen floats.

cheat code

awful toxic class of substances that force cells to regenerate faster, but when used topically, makes your skin immaculate

does it cause cancer or is it just a straight upgrade?

tretinoin, the most famous, is actually a chemotherapy drug if taken orally

using it topically is, again, just a straight upgrade to your skin and chill (kind of harsh on the skin but it adapts), but if you don't protect your skin you'll destroy it faster than if you didn't use it. so moisturize and wear spf babes.

Great to know.

I was gonna make a thread about how much I love sunscreen and anyone who calls sunscreen lame is a cranberry field trudging hillbilly who will contract Actinic keratosis and only have enough money from last year's cranberry harvest to stave off the spread, but they have to think about the money they need to leave behind to their family to persue a better life outside of the cranberry fields, but I won't have to make that thread because massa has already said the good word of sunscreen.
Do yourself a favor and do not directly expose yourself to the death laser in the sky that slowly blasts the life out of every part of your body it touches.

Cranberries are grown in bogs not fields. Anyone who's seen an oceanspray commercial knows that.
Also retinoids sound Faustian.
Unless you're using mineral based sunscreen it's horrible for coral and also potentially fucks with your hormones.

On a related topic, not a moisturizer but a facial cleanser, this stuff is the best: https://www.amazon.com/Bior%C3%A9-Brigh ... 08GNZJDM4/

Your skin actually looks so much brighter after using it even for a little bit

They have impressed me so much I've become a voluntary shill for their product (sadly Walmart does not carry it any longer)

yes actually use something more natural and expensive if you're going near reefs. most cosmetic products on the front line of shelves have had time to get over their toxic duckling arc though, i wouldn't worry so much.

also if you're a male your hormones only make you smell like shit, violent and hairy so no biggie

thank u (: for skincare friends either a retinoid or exfoliant (retinoids act as them) but both will also fuck your shit up.

I know thats why it’s important to wear sunscreen. the light reflects of the water and blasts you double hard.

this is very true, water and any sort of reflection and refraction can make a situation worse!!

these people knew the dangers of the sun

People always ask why Victorians wore such heavy thick clothing that covered their entire body - "Wouldn't they be hot?" the modern person asks.

The reason is simple: sunscreen hadn't been invented yet, but sunburn had

Listen. Society has already entered its mouse utopia stage of oversocialization and male fertility has been declining for decades too. It shouldn't be encouraged further. That's why titanium and zinc oxide should be the starting point for sunscreen, which sucks because it's very white but the alternative is fucking up your own hormones as well as tainting the grey water when you wash it off.

a little sunscreen is not going to turn me into a sissy

and it ain’t gonna hurt the coral much either grand scheme, take that issue up with the oil people pal…

fuckin nerds

Spotted the big sunscreen industry shill

the fucking suits at BIG SUN want to zap you of all your testosterone and hormones

Developing a good skin care routine is critical to aging well you youngins so listen up. Start simple get a nice face soap and a moisturizer and try to use it every few days.

I use stuff like this

idk what to tell u mindstormy but i think u got scammed 30 bucks for liquidized herbs….

Herbs are great man. You can smoke them. You can turn them into a fancy drink. You can liquidize them and spread them on ya face. Don't knock it till ya try it my mans.

since we're talkin about grooming supplies i will use this opportunity to shill doubleedge safety shavers

i have not bought a single razorblade cartridge or refill in nearly a year. doubleedge razorblades are dirt cheap you can get like 200 for 20 bucks. so cheap i use a new one everytime i shave.

it's a bit of an initial investment for the shaver and the special shaving cream you need for em but man they're cool as hell plus you save over the longterm



if you wanna be real fancy you can get a brush too it feels good
don't fall for that overadvertised Merkur crap though they're a scam cause they only work with their own restocks. this one's a Timor but you can find tons of good brands

retinoids sounds like something you'd see on an autist forum for people who wear glasses

edit: wow the word filter ruined my excellent joke i'm really upset rn
