SKINCARE ROUTINE

by rubinella

Alrightyyyy listen up everyone. This is the singular, most low-effort skincare routine you will find ever - tried AND tested on multiple different people by yours truly.

No products I use are any fancier than drugstore, nor do they break the bank. So, buckle up for the best skin of your life.

MORNING ROUTINE

First off; CLEANSER. Cleanse your face of all the stuff you might've gotten on it in your sleep! I use a hydrating cleanser in the winter, a smoothing one in the summer.
TONER. This doesn't have to be complicated. Just spray it on your face with a spray bottle.
HYDRATING MIST. Again, just spray it on.
2 X LIGHTWEIGHT MOISTURISERS/SPF: This might be controversial but I find that layering two lightweight moisturisers works better than using a singular thick one. And remember SPF, of course.

EVENING ROUTINE

If you are a makeup wearer, stop buying makeup remover. Use a cheap, cream-based CLEANSER and some reusable cotton pads. This will work out so much cheaper in the long run (I wear makeup almost every day and I've only bought two bottles in two years).
DOUBLE CLEANSE. I use a smoothing cleanser and follow with a hydrating one. Especially if you use a lot of public transport or live in a busy city - this will help reduce breakouts.
TONER. Just spray it on
HYDRATING MIST. Same thing!
RETINOL-BASED MOISTURISER. This isn't a necessity - you might find something else that works better for you. However, since doing this, my skin has felt super soft and even.

That's it. My skincare literally takes me five minutes, and yours can too!

Once, Twice, Thrice

by MarginaIize

Internet revolves since then; people keep forgetting that there are limitations within the space, the hate, the fake criticisms and many more. Being online for so many years has taught us to respect the space we're given. You can say anything, but that won't be erased from someone's mind. We can hate people so much that we forget the boundaries we're getting into social media platforms; I do understand cliques, groups or circles of friends in this game. But what really is disturbing is the Cancel culture within this game.

This game provides a safe space for all people, yet what is happening in this community. This cancel culture that has been happening after the pandemic is so hateful. People start to group up to hate someone is so fucking crazy. Calling out isn't enough, but the repetitive gestures of hateful remarks towards someone are not a good call. I am also not a saint, but I do respect people's opinions. I'm not calling out people in here, but if you got hurt in my letter, what I can only say to you is "enough". This community revolves around people who grew up in this game, which I really loved about this game, but the community itself is rotten on the inside.

These kinds of people, starting to become who they are now, are becoming disgusting, perhaps. The things that have been happening in these consecutive months have been so messy: the things I have seen, the things I have heard, the things that I have felt, but who am I as a person to judge these kinds of things? But here is the last part of this blog that I'm making. I hope everyone changes to become a better person and know what is right; not just because you are loud doesn't mean you are right. Cruelness is a part of human nature, but try to look at it from a better side than being someone so cruel. I am here today to use this platform to acknowledge what has been happening in this community and not to call people out.

Clicks that Cracked and Repaired

by tranquility-

Click! Click!

It was on a random day back in 2014 that I encountered a game named Woozworld. I was this young boy who did not have any outlet to know himself, but knew that there was something within him that was special. That something was questioned by others with eyebrows raised, others with smiles on their faces.

Fashion was the immediate branding of this game that caught my eye. It taught me how to experiment with styles and to even learn how to match the right colors for an outfit. Not just that, it taught me how the market works and how to communicate with people on a wider scale. It even made me meet people that I would never have thought to last years of friendships - and continuing.

Click! Crack?

There were times that went rough. I may have forgotten an account or two; it never stopped me from creating another account again. I don't know if it's a personal take but there is something gravitating in this game that pulls you to play it.

It does not only confine you to a world where you "play pretend"; it somehow gives you a touch of true life that peels through the cracks of someone's character. These cracks don't always show the positive side of the world, it also reveals some of an apple's rotten parts - slices that sparked optimism down to reeking narcissism and hatred.

That is what makes this game somewhat special for me. It did not hide or pretend, it made me understand how personalities do differ. This game prepared me for what I had to encounter in the physical and unpredictable social life.

Click! Fixed!

To the young boy who always opted for a female character, who loved to play dress up, and stayed up all night to play theme games, has discovered himself and is now expressing it fully through the game's much more accessible clothing line and features.

To the boy who was named Jessica, Delilah, Goldie and now Tranquility, Woozworld gave me a platform to try out the things I loved - things I never had the guts to do in the physical world.

Woozworld is not just a game of nostalgia - it became my stepping stone to unlock who I was as a person.
