Workada - Interview?

I’m a 3rd year university student from Toronto, Canada. I’ve recently submitted an application to Workada via a referral from a Redditor. I have an upcoming interview which I’m very nervous about because I don’t feel qualified for any position at Workada. I’m still in the process of obtaining my bachelors degree and I have absolutely no experience in AI training. I’m very motivated to learn though! I will follow through with the interview and try my very best. What should I expect in the interview?

How to build a gel polish collection?

I use Apres Gel-X extensions with Amazon gel polishes. I would like to get rid of my polishes and build a collection of high quality Japanese and Korean gel polishes. I want to start with 5 gel polishes. This might sound dumb but I'm having the hardest time deciding on what shades to purchase.

I’m heavily inspired by Japanese and Korean nail art, especially glass nails, aurora nails, syrup/jelly nails and 3D nail art. I’m considering gel polishes from Kokoist, DVOK and Yogurt Nail but I’m open to other premium brands. I’m always tempted to purchase unique or trendy shades but I'm concerned I may not wear it often. I want to be strategic when buying gel polishes. Where should I start? If you had to start a new gel polish collection, how would you pick your colours?

Pet hair and allergens on hardwood floors

I live in a 1-bedroom apartment with 2 shorthaired cats. I suffer from allergies. I’m looking for a robot vacuum for dust, pet hair, pet dander and other allergens on hardwood and tile floors.

The robot vacuum must have anti-tangle rubber brushes, HEPA filtration (or equivalent), and strong suction. It would be nice if it features a bagged auto-empty dock to reduce allergen exposure and a mop but it’s not necessary. Any recommendations? My budget is under $700 CAD but I plan to purchase it on sale.

Affordable lamp for Apres products

I recently purchased the Apres Gel-X Signature Kit which comes with an Omni Light. I’m assuming it’s only for flash curing. I plan to invest in an Apres or Kokoist lamp in the near future but in the meantime, I want to purchase an affordable curing lamp via Amazon. Any recommendations? I need my Apres products (extend gel, gel polish and top coat) to properly cure.

Product recommendations for fine curly hair

I have fine, low porosity, 3C/4A hair. I genuinely don’t know how to style fine curly hair. When selecting styling products, I avoid heavy butters and oils. I opt for lightweight, water-based products that don’t weigh down fine hair. I’m experimenting with different leave-in conditioners, foams/mousses and gels to find the combination that work best for my curl type. Any styling product recommendations for fine curly hair?

Styling products I’ve used:
- Amika Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Leave-in Conditioner
- Olaplex No.5Leave-In Moisturize and Mend Leave-In Conditioner
- The Doux MOUSSE DEF Texture Foam
- The Doux CRAZYSEXYCURL Honey Setting Foam
- Olaplex No.10 Bond Shaper Curl Defining Gel

Any recommendations?

What to look for in a used treadmill?

I live in a small, 1-bedroom apartment on the 1st floor. I’m looking for a high-quality foldable treadmill with inline for daily walking and light jogging. I wanted to purchase a new Horizon T101 treadmill, although shipping costs are stupid expensive. I want to look at other options.

I’m considering to purchase a used or refurbished treadmill but I don’t know what to look for. Do I need a commercial treadmill? Does it have to be under warranty? What reputable brands should I look for? Do you have any recommendations for a very basic, foldable treadmill with incline?

Living alone worsened my dermatillomania. How to find the motivation to quit?

I live alone with 2 cats. I don’t frequently see people because I work remotely and I’m very insecure of my disfigured skin. When I had a healthy social life and lived with roommates, my dermatillomania was mild. I really took care of my appearance because I cared what others thought of me. I also had limited privacy to pick because I lived with roommates.

Since living alone, I’ve truly let myself go. I no longer care about my appearance because I rarely see people. I don’t seem to care about developing hyperpigmentation or scars on my face so I continue to pick excessively. It is very satisfying but I do feel guilty and shameful. I don’t seem to care enough to stop though. I really want clear skin again so I can feel confident to go out and socialize. I no longer want to hide. How can I find the motivation to quit picking?

I have tan skin with warm olive undertones. I’m looking for a cool or neutral-toned contour. I prefer liquid or cream formulas. Which contour would you recommend? If you have other recommendations, please share!

I have tan skin with warm olive undertones. I’m looking for a colour corrector to neutralize my brown under-eye circles. Since peach-to-orange color correctors are said to be the most effective at neutralizing deep pigmentation, I’m considering to purchase Bobbi Brown corrector in “peach”.

I recently came across Natasha Denona HY-GLAM Brightener. It’s a medium-full-coverage brightener that comes in 4 pink shades. My shade would be B4 (medium). It says it can correct brown under-eye circles and brown spots. I’ve always assumed pink correctors were only for people with fair to light skin tones… Could I benefit from a pink colour corrector or should I stick with a peach one?

My dermatillomania before stimulants was very mild. I take dextroamphetamine which has been tremendously helpful in managing my ADHD and narcolepsy. Sadly, this stimulant makes me pick excessively (even on lower doses). I’ve tried other stimulants that don’t make me pick like Vyvanse and Adderall. I may need to switch stimulants, although I’m very reluctant because of the benefits of dextroamphetamine. It’s been the best medication for my ADHD and narcolepsy.

Is it possible to stop picking while taking stimulants? I’ve been implementing strategies to minimize my picking and I’m very aware of my triggers. I frequently fail which is making me consider to switch medications… I really don’t want to.
