My take on a French omelette with a side of tomatoes. It’s literally my first time trying it so it’s really not the best. I also added inside peppers fried with olive oil and cheese.

This has been my routine for the last 6 months I think. Everything is Korean except fo the salycilic acid and the tretinoin.

I use the products in order as they are in the picture.

1. Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Cleansing Oil. - Love this one. It not too oily, spread really well and removes my SPF and makeup (when I wear it) really well. The only thing is that is does have a strong ginseng smell and some people might not like that. My fiance accidentally dropped the bottle and broke the top.
2. Haruharu wonder Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel - Love this one also. I'm on my second bottle. Very gentle, which for me is great because I use 0.1% tretinoin and I sometimes add the salicylic acid serum so it can get a bit dry so I love that this one is not stripping. It does remove everything great. If I forget to use SPF or if I don't go out in the sun and I dont wear it, I just use this one without the oil cleanser and it's awesome.
3. Revox 2% Salicylic Acid. I use it 2-3x per day on my T-zone because I get sebasious fillaments. I also dont use it always. Maybe for like 2-3 weeks, then I don't for months until my pores get clogged again.
4. Tretinoin 0.1% - I use this every night, all year round. I put it first, even thought it's a cream, because I don't want anything else to interfere with the effectivness.
5. Beauty of Joseon Revive Serum: Ginseng + Snail Mucin - Pretty good for hydration, which is why I primarily bought it. it's my third time buying it, doesn't have a smell, it not too watery but not completely like a serum, something in between. One downside, it does stain fabric which is that I found out after I was wearing white shirts to sleep and noticed that the area around the neck got brown haha.
6. Tirtir Milk Skin Toner. - A milky toner, but it's not very thick, it's more watery. It is heavier than the previous one but I hydrates my skin well and it does dry out pretty quickly, doesn't leave a sticky feeling. It does have 5% niacinamide so if you're sensitive to it, I wouldn't use it. I repuchased it for the third time.
7. Skin1004 Probio-Cica Bakuciol Eyecream - I wouldn't buy it again, at the end of the day, for me, eyecream is just a fancy moisturizer with a higher price that I don't think you really need because you can just use your regular one for that. Plus, I don't know if the Bakuciol works because I haven't noticed any special changes. I was in a mood for spending money and I wanted to try it out but it's not gonna stay in my routine.
8. Aestura Atoberrier 365 Cream - I bought it two weeks ago when I used up my old one, and I can say i really do like it. It's not thick and heavy on the skin but it does moisturize really well because and that's something I really need because of the tret and the salicylic acid. I would definitely buy it again.

I would like to hear your comments on what you think! Also, if anyone know any other recs for the cleansers and other moisturizers, I'd love to try out new products.

So two weeks ago I got a new plant, specifically a ficus benjamina natasja (it also says jute next to it but I don't really understand what it means haha).

Now, I know they like to get fussy and drop leaves, especailly if they are moved or something is not to their liking. I've put it on a south-east facing window and I have not moved it at all since getting it. I waterd it a week after getting it because the soil I got it in was slightly damp so I didn't want to overwater it. I check it with my finger and it was dry.

We do use an AC in our appartment because it's very hot, but I put it in a room that AC doesn't reach directly to. We have a fan, but it works for maybe 10min at a time, and it blows away from the plant.

My question is, should I be doing something more? It was very green but now almost half of the leaves are yellow. It's also my first ficus, so far I've owned just scucculents.

I wanted to repot it but I didn't want to upsed it further haha.

Should I maybe add some fertilizer next time I water it?

Is there a way to propagate this aloe vera? Im new to plants and I think I made a mistake by repotting my aloe vera and didnt check if the new soil was too wet and it ended up with my plant rotting, well the root of my plant rotting. Is there anyway I could maybe use something from what i have to propagate it? Thanks!

I've been playing this one for almost a year. There aren't many members int he family tree since I did have breaks from playing the game for a couple of months.

The oldest son's (Matthias) first wife died so he remarried He has one son with his first wife and one with his new wife (Noelle).

The oldest daughter (Stella) is about to get a divorce because the husband is helping absolutely nothing when it comes to the kids and the home.

The second oldest (Victor) is a playboy, has four kids with four different women and he doesn't plan to settle down, he also has a crush on his older brother's wife. He is very messy because he has kids with two sisters.

Levi (the 3rd son) managed to get a girl of his dreamsm finally, after MANY rejections. They just moved out.

Lorenzo is planning to be a professional athlete and Lily, the baby of the family, doesn't want to get married or have kids, she wants to pursue art. She does, however, have a crush on Noelle's younger brother.
