I’ve been obsessed with James Bond for a long time lol, it was one of my favorite card games growing up (along with blackjack, spoons, and rummy (gin and 500)) but I have literally no one who will play it with me! My girlfriend is willing to sometimes, but it’s a bit too hectic/fast paced of a game for her, and I’m quite good at it so she gets frustrated quickly lol.

Is there any app/website/game I can play this on? I have an app for rummy and one for blackjack, but can’t for the life of me find one for James Bond or that offers it (likely since it’s a less known game lol)

Probably not, but I figured if anyone knew here would be the place to ask!

I made a post mistakenly thinking it was the water gel I used to use- when it was the gel cream. I got some good dupes for the water gel, but, that is NOT the one I used/that worked for my skin!

So re asked the proper question; does anyone have any dupes that are the closest exact ingredient matches to this product, with a cheaper price? It is $20 for a 1.7 oz jar of it, and that is quite expensive for me. If it comes down to there is nothing similar/I need to bite the bullet and get it, do let me know that as well. I would be beyond grateful for any help!!

(Feel free to check out my last post for more info— just know that the product I am speaking about is the gel cream, I mistakenly thought it was the water gel so I was referring to it as such.)

Hi all! I’ve been having some terrible problems with my skin lately. I mean genuinely, it’s the worst it has been in years. I am wanting to switch back to a moisturizer I know worked wonders for me— the hydro boost water gel, but I just cannot justify $20 for a 1.7 jar of it (especially not with the other products in my routine.)

Important correction I need to make: I used the neutrogena hydro boost gel CREAM, not the water gel apparently. It was white, so it had to have been that one, which says it had much better hydration. And that is why it’s different than the 13-15 dollar water gel version.

Looking for dupes of the gel CREAM, please!!!

I saw that the elf holy hydration is similar, and the ponds lightweight hyaluronic acid gel moisturizer is similar, but in looking into both further they both contain more comedogenic occlusives and oils and thus will be way more likely to break me out than the hydro boost. And some people say the elf one is too lightweight/ not hydrating enough.

Is there anyone out there who has a dupe that’s nearly exact to the hydro boost, or even just recommendations for affordable, lightweight moisturizers that are good for incredibly acne prone, but also still hydrate extremely well?

(Repost, as I did not tag/flair correctly!! So sorry about that, and hopefully this is the correct one and correct method!)

These are the only two generics I know work for me, and with how severe my endometriosis is (that is why I take it) I would really like to find a way to stay on these and not have to try the other generics. But I just don’t know how to find somewhere that reliably stocks it. It seems every single pharmacy near me doesn’t have it, and is saying they can’t get it (CVS, Walgreens, Walmart)

I’m just at a loss. Does anyone know where I can find either of these? I have found Junel 1/20 on one or two sites online, but that’s not my dosage and I worry the websites are not reliable.

So, I have been on birth control, skip placebos, to manage my debilitation endometriosis since I was 15 (I will be 21 soon) and it was a BATTLE figuring out which generic worked for me. I was first given aurovela- and after a couple months on it I regulated and it was pretty great. Helped a ton compared to normal. At some point, they did not have aurovela so they gave me I believe it was Haley FE? It did nothing for me, I was bleeding horribly again; in agonizing pain, ready to go to the hospital if I could not find a way to get the right medication. I ended up having to finish the pack, and next time had my doc request NO substitutions, so it would have to be aurovela. That went well for a while- until they said aurovela was basically discontinued, and they can’t get it reliably anymore. I was terrified, but, had no option but to try another generic. I tried I think some other brand I can’t even remember the name of, it gave me the same issues as Haley did. Then I tried Junel. It worked great; very little adjustment time once switching too it (I’m talking a couple days- not even a week, and I was regulated again mostly.) I’ve been on that for about 2 and a half years now, and suddenly Junel is now nearly impossible for ANY pharmacy near me to get, and I will have to switch once more.

I guess my question is, anyone who has had experience with Aurovela, Junel, Haley, loestrin, microgestin, blisovi, larin, and/or any other generics of it— which is closest to Junel and aurovela? I’m so afraid to pick one like Haley, that in theory should work, but absolutely does not due to my genetics and the filler ingredients
