Ok but ultimate skincare routine? Your skin looks fab ✨ (if the answer is I like to scrub my face with clear water I'll take it too)

thank you kindly! I’m finally at the stage where I’ve stopped Trying New Things because I’ve found a routine and a selection of products that work perfectly for me. (acting like it was a choice and not that Into The Gloss stopped putting out content and therefor I stopped being influenced by Top Shelves.)

- I cleanse with DHC Deep Cleansing Oil, which is my favourite and the best cleanser I’ve ever used. the hype is real. when I’m feeling too lazy for it I cleanse with Baby Lotion on a cotton pad (amazing makeup remover) followed by micellar water. 

- I exfoliate with Glossier Solution. I’m probably on my 5th bottle of it, and I got my girlfriend hooked as well. it is phenomenal. when I first bought it I was like THIS DOESN’T DO ANYTHING EXCEPT STING but I stuck with it and it’s now a holy grail product. if I run out I panic. 

- the only serum I really use is The Ordinary’s Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% (I’ve also used Glossier Super Pure which is niacinamide and zinc and liked that too).  

- in the summer I use Nivea Q10 day/night creams to moisturise, and in the winter I use regular ol’ Nivea or Glossier After Baume if I’m reeeeeally dry. it’s so thick it’s like Playdoh, I love it. 

- the only thing I’m still Trying To Decide On is retinol; I’ve used a couple of different brands (Boots Ingredients and The Inkey List, both fine) but haven’t noticed enough of a change/improvement in my skin to become hooked. obviously I would also love to try Lotion P50, but I have bills to pay. 

- SPF. luckily before I ‘got into skincare’ I was still a super pale redhead, so I always did SPF. I HAD NO CHOICE. I try to use a special face one and not just slap on my Nivea Sun Baby 50+ Very High, but sometimes I just slap on my Nivea Sun Baby 50+ Very High, especially in the summer. I’m currently using a La Roche-Posay one, but I’m not brand loyal.  

- I’m wringing the life out of a tube of Sunday Riley’s Good Genes that my aunt bought me as a gift. if I was slightly richer it would be on my biannual shopping list. 

- if I do get a spot, I whack a hydrocolloid patch on it. COSRX have great ones, but the Hydro-Star ones are so much cuter. 

all of this with the disclaimer that both of my parents have always had clear skin and I wear very little makeup. you won’t catch me putting anything heavier than a bb cream on my face. both times I’ve had ‘professional makeup’ done to me I arrived with clear skin and could feel myself breaking out halfway through the wedding breakfasts. diet-wise I would die before cutting out dairy and carbs but I do drink a lot of water! HOPE THIS HELPS YOU ON YOUR SKINCARE JOURNEY!!

Will trying to flirt with Nico, but no one flirts like Nico does, and Will always feels like he's falling in love for the first time.

Believe me, Nico's got skills (and he’s got Dante, Catullus and D'Annunzio as his teachers)

Is this fanfic friendly? I feel like an outlier.

I guess this is my sign it's time to throw together a FAQ post to link to lol.

Yes, every event for this blog is fanfic friendly :D

Though as I mentioned on my Ominous October post, for events that include multiple short stories, I encourage everyone to flex their creativity and take one of their planned short story fanfics, and at least *attempt* to turn one of them into something entirely original; rebuilding a character and story from the ground up to stand on its own two legs is no easy feat, and that is what makes it so fun!

It really gets your creative gears turning, to make an "au of an existing material" to be something entirely original, and you can be pleasantly surprised about the things you come up with!

As a few people say, its not just a matter of "filing the serial numbers off" -- you have to add in just as much *or more* as what you take out when you are turning a fanfiction into something that is original and completely divorced from its original source material / inspiration, and that is a hard, but very rewarding challenge!

Obviously, this is not a requirement (there's no hard requirements for any of the challenges, other than no cheating, including no using AI),

but if you would like an extra challenge for the short story events and you're planning on doing entirely fan-fiction, I highly recommend trying it out at least once, and seeing where it leads you--

you may find yourself pleasantly surprised by what you find down that rabbit hole!

Stargazer but they become friends to hunt horcruxes together and 'totally don't have feelings for each other'

And while they're reading for information, Reggie finally finds out how to destroy them so he jumps up and yells 'I'VE GOT IT' and Lily leaps up to join him and impulsively grabs his face and kisses him

And then they're both there like 😳

It's so weird to think that the US is currently 5-8 hours behind me instead of the 12-15 hours that I'm used to

[dhaaruni]

Lol I just realized I turn 30 in less than two months which is very exciting (and not not surprising) so I guess I'll throw a party, probably in DC, and with an outfit theme that's TBD
