I've only recently gotten into Vitamin C so I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong but, whenever I apply it, it doesn't feel like it's getting absorbed by my skin. I apply it on a fresh face in the morning with no other products (I just wash my face with water in the morning). Am I putting on too much maybe? It just feels sticky the whole day and it doesn't feel like it settled in my skin at all.

I've been alternating between the Greek & Gorgeous one and the Transparent Lab Ascorbic C15. Does anyone have any advice

Does anyone know an account that posts throwbacks from Hailey's instagram? I wish she didn't delete/archive everything pre-2018 :/

I've re-watched SVU a million times, it's my go to and comfort show lol. I thought I'd give the OG a try and while it's not as good as SVU (to me) I still like it. But something I've noticed is how much harsher the OG is on both its suspects and victims. Maybe I'm too used to SVU being more nuanced and compassionate, but people like McCoy especially don't seem to care about anything other than seeing the law as black and white 😭 I know that SVU started much later in than the OG, but from the start SVU was more sympathetic and not so black and white in it's treatment of the characters.

Maybe I'm expecting too much out of a police show, I mean the entire franchise is riddled with propaganda, but this one seems so extreme to me. >!For example, in S6E19 McCoy and Kincaid are so hell bent on prosecuting a thirteen year old boy for murder, despite the fact that he comes from an extremely volatile and abusive household. Or in episode 14 of the same season. McCoy and Kincaid are so dismissive of the systematic racism not only in the American social welfare system, but the law in general. Like how can Claire and Jack sit there and argue with the lawyer that the addict woman's abduction of her child and the events it took for her to get there isn't tied with racism!? When that lawyer says 'everything is related to racism' to Claire, I was shocked that's even an arugement to make, is that not obvious? Idk if it's too dated or the show runner was trying to actually show what he was talking about but it was sooo frustrating to watch the dismissiveness from Jack and Claire.!<

These are just two examples, I've watched different episodes from different seasons and it remains the same. Even Anita, who I really love as a character, seems to be so dismissive when it comes to things like racism. Why is it that Ed is the only one who can see through this!?

SVU has a lot of faults and its also guilty of being dated but I found myself being less frustrated by this particular issue (although there is still room for a LOT of improvement).

I miss her YT series. She didn't even post the Met Gala bts this year ):

I want to preface this buy saying that I am aware that me coming on here to seek reassurance and validation on something I have labelled as a problem is contradicting many principles within the LOA.

But, I just feel so anxious and would appreciate if anyone shared their stories of a similar experience.

I submitted an application for a job through a recruitment agency that has a portal. Once the deadline is up, the portal for that particular job because inaccessible. They usually give a few minutes past the deadline to give time for technical errors.

Well, tonight I submitted it 4 minutes late and then realised that I had made a mistake by forgetting to delete a random blank page in the middle. The application required two set tasks in addition to my CV and cover letter. It's a job that I really want (and need). The job is within the field of journalism, so these errors are not a good look at all, I didn't even have time to proof read most of it.

Somehow, I still left most of it to the VERY last minute (hence the late submission). When I eventually actually started, I realised how easily I got into the flow of the task and how much I enjoyed it. But I had to rush most of it because of the deadline. Now I'm kicking myself so much about how I should have started earlier. I'm struggling to not spiral about myself always being careless with time, I have a history of doing things last minute. The worst part is realising how capable I am yet never organising myself to deliver the work on time. I had PLENTY of time to do it as well. This has happened all throughout my life, from school to uni to jobs. I don't have anyone to blame but myself. Even if I had started a few hours earlier tonight, I would have finished on time and done a better job, instead I thought it was a good idea to take a nap and online shop first...

I realise I'm going on a self punishing rant and repeating a story about myself that is undesired/negative. But I don't know how to get it out of my head. Right now I just feel stupid and like I've messed everything up again (which, there is no going around it, I have messed up!)

Would anyone be willing to share examples of times where they royally messed up and still persisted despite the circumstances and ended up with a success story? I'm looking for stories relating to jobs in particular but to be honest, any would be fine.

I can't figure out which one to buy. I have brown skin and want to even out my complexion more, especially around my mouth. I already use retinal regularly (Medik8 Crystal Retinal) and BHA exfoliant (The Paula's Choice one once a week). But I only use those in the evening and I'm thinking of adding Vitamin C to my AM routine (I always wear sunscreen of course!). Does anyone have any recommendations? There seems to be so much information about Vitamin C and it's all a bit overwhelming, I don't want to waste money on the wrong one! I was looking at the ISNTREEC-Niacin, Paula's Choice 25% Vitamin C + Glutathione Clinical Serum or Inde Wild Sunrise Glow 15% Vitamin C Complex Serum 🍊 I also looked into the Greek & Gorgeous 101 C-Glow 15% Vitamin C Serum
