* **Source - iPhone and Lenovo laptop
* **Requirements for Isolation - Will need it to be really good at noise cancelling! I will use them on public transport, at work around losts of other people and construction. Also will use them at the gym
* **Will you be using these Headphones in Public? - I will be using them in public often

* **What would you like to improve on from your set-up - I am looking for more bass, noise cancellation and overall sound quality,

Was considering

- Sennheiser M4s (love the long battery life) but I'm hearing that they have connection/software issues and just okay noise control

- Sennheiser hdb 630 but hearing they are only a slight upgrade from M4s.

- Sony WH-1000XM6 is my current top contender; a bit worried about the build because I tend to travel alot and be rough with my headphones. I heard hinges were an issue with XM5. But overall this is my favourite option

- potentially bose quietcomfort

EDIT: Just found out about bowers & wilkins Px8 2, liking the idea of these alot

I am open to any to suggestions, thanks

Just started using retinol a week ago. I was to get into a routine with retinal night 1 and mandelic night 2. But, what should I use after?

Currently

1. Wash
2. Retinal or Mandelic
3. Lotion
4. LRP Cicaplast baume b5

I’m learning that cicaplast baume is an occlusive and I’m slugging my actives which can be irritating. My skin is breaking out a bit (probably purging) and I’m waking up a bit dry but not flakey just tight. Honestly nothing too bad. It does’t feel or look bad, I don’t have sensitive skin but i don’t want to damage my skin barrier. Would love any tips or advise on this.

Just started using retinol a week ago, specifically retinaldehyde 0.05%. I was to get into a routine with retinal night 1 and mandelic acid night 2. But, what should I use after?
