First pregnancy at 35. Best facial moisturizer while pregnant? I was using Retinol, I immediately stopped. I loved it and it took away fine lines. Anyone use Circa Cream?

I'm developing a pregnancy safe skincare line ! would it be alright if you filled out a survey for market research purposes ? I'll put out a broader call as well and I promise to send you samples ! in the meantime I would try cerave or honest company products

I second cerave!

I love Clinique 72 hour moisture surge! I also use dermalogica active moist line and never had a single breakout during pregnancy.

What Retinol cream were you using? I am looking for a good one!

Thanks!

During both of my pregnancies, I used Drunk Elephant marula face oil + REN nighttime cream and during the day - Origins tinted moisturizer with the first (because we all went outside back then 😂😂😂) and Mizon snail cream with my second. Also toner from Park and Son. And SPF!

I’ve been using Proven skincare, and just updated my formula to pregnancy safe when I found out I was expecting!

I've been using Charlotte tilburys miracle cream and Protocol's vitamin c serum. Vitamin c is supposed to encourage collagen growth.

I used keys luminos before being pregnant on recommendation from my dermatologist. Continuing to use it while pregnant since the ingredients are natural, vegan and organic. I highly recommend it.

Has anyone else had a really hard time online dating with Covid? I’m aware things are getting better but I prefer to do outdoor first dates to be on the safe side. No judgement to anyone that does differently. It’s just what I feel comfortable with. I’ve had a few guys tell me they won’t do outdoor dates for some reason… some have cited weather but others legit say no (in 70 weather) because it’s a hassle & “Covid is a joke.” Please tell me if this is normal.

Happy Friday. Just a reminder of a few things:

- ADHD is a disability, but it’s not the end of the world
- give yourself a break. Your brain needs it more than you realize
- medication is not a cure-all treatment. Medication + diet + exercise + self-organization is the key.
- ADHD causes us to feel emotions stronger than the average person.
- failure is inevitable, but so is success. Act accordingly, and be kind and fair to yourself
- life is hard, but that’s… wait, what was I saying? 😂😎❤️

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected. I’d be worried that I would minimize lifestyle and fun for retirement at 50 but I’d die at 49. How about a way to work 9 months out of the year and retire/travel/relax for 3 months? This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled
