Controversial Cosmetics. - NSFW

Do they use the same sort of ink for bald filling tats?

Asking for a friend, of course. Not slowly losing my hair here at all. Yup.

I don't know for certain but it would certainly make sense. what you want to do is find a tattooist who specifies cosmetic ink. ask them what ink they use because this microplaning fad uses regular ink and looks like garbage.

About bleaching assholes. You don't actually use bleach, but hydroquinone. Which you don't even need a prescription for in America. And no, it doesn't cause cancer.

 

[melty]

No. Nope. we're not doing the anal bleaching discussion again.

 

[Turtle Who Snapped]

Naw, it's a whore thing.

I remember being a teenager and being hyperconscious of my bikini area in swimsuits. So, I used Nair.

Chemical burns on genitalia is the most hardcore pain.

Late as always, but I'm usually right, so I'll say this: chemical burns on the genitals sucks, chemical burns to the eyes are worse. Not to power level too much, but I've had both, and the eyes are much worse. Be careful out there guys.

I knew a guy who had to get circumcised at age 20 due to his foreskin not retracting properly. He was absolutely miserable and said he wished his parents had had it done when he was a baby, since at that point he wouldn't have had to deal with pain from erections and the inability to masturbate while it healed.

I'd assume they would niacinamide.

 

[Vingle]

I'd assume they would niacinamide.

I guess that might work, arbutin too. As arbutin is related to hydroquinone, and less "risky"

I know we have a bad plastic surgery thread, but does anyone have an experience in having a rhinoplasty?

Quarantine is stopping me from scheduling an IRL consultation but I'm thinking about getting it done, subtly. I have a bulbous tip and a bump on the bridge, so I'm just looking to eliminate that. I'm not sure if I have to bring in examples to the surgeon or not. I wouldn't mind a smaller nose in general TBH because I have large eyes and it would draw more attention to them.

Usually, the surgeon will create a mockup of the resulting nose
A good surgeon will try to make the new nose works with the face

For a thread that went from 0 to butthole sperging at breakneck speed, it's kind of odd how little information there is overall. Skin lightening as a process is massively more popular in asian countries and their more sensitive skin around the genitals is more likely to be a natural brown tone compared to pink for white people. Considering the colorism going on and the obvious implications of brown in that area, it's a lot more reasonable to see where that self-consciousness comes from. There's safe ways to do it but also some whackos recommending wild shit. Most white people aren't going to run into this problem, or if discolor is an issue a doctor is probably a better call than refinishing to cover it up.

A little more serious talk on this, because mothers seem weirdly obsessed with their son's penises: you do not need to have your child mutilated to prevent this. In a developed country it is vanishingly unlikely to need to perform a complete circumcision at any point. For most retraction issues (rare to begin with) a very small incision can be made in the foreskin that will remedy the problem, heal quickly/less painfully, and you won't be deciding for a literal infant to remove part of their genitals permanently. For a place of less-pozzed women online it's sad to see just how different things like labia modification and circumcision were discussed.

Big agree here. I was shocked to learn that the US is one of the only large first world countries to circumcise a huge amount (almost all) baby boys. And for what? Is it okay because they’re so young they don’t remember? No. It’s fucked up. No idea how it got so mainstream and maintained in the US.

It is incredibly fucked up, but I can confirm there's starting to be more pushback and education about it. More mothers are learning about what it actually entails from midwives and doulas, but I'm constantly shocked how uneducated they were about it before they got pregnant.
Which raises some questions:
Who benefits from circumcision being the default?
Why aren't mothers told what the procedure entails like with any other surgery where informed consent is necessary?
Why aren't parents asked before before the birth happens? Who wins when mothers are asked when they're delirious from having just given birth?

Spoiler

I was in Ulta yesterday, and saw they had a section of items dedicated for vulva and public hair care.
I didn't know I needed to use oil on my furry bits, I just make sure they're clean.

You're not. Using anything on your vag besides warm water and unscented, gentle soap (i.e Dove) is a breeding ground for a yeast infection.

they’re to help you when you shave so you don’t break out and get ingrowns.

Wouldn't any plain jojoba oil or something similar work just as well?

 

[Tard Repository]

For shaving purposes? Definitely. Otherwise it's really not advisable to use anything more down there than necessary, specifically "yoni oils" or "yoni soaps". Really no reason to use it if you're rockin' it natural, and definitely more cost-effective than wasting $50 on some bullshit mix of oil you can put together yourself.

So you guys are saying I shouldn't be spraying detangler down the front of my drawers?

can you not just stretch it out gradually? there are plenty of solutions to this besides the chop

It's kind of fucked up that their porn (hentai) is full of stories when people just stop the action to marvel at how pink the woman's genitals are, specifically, light pink, given how unnusual that feature would be there.
From what i heard it's a well-worn trope.

Ha, porn and reality... the practice might be sustained that way. Representation creates demand for pink vulvas and assholes, keeping the bleaching industry afloat. Or maybe since they lighten other body areas (like armpits when the skin can get dark as well), the rest of the body starts looking mismatched.
