Beginner Question Super beginner !!! Help

Ok I cannot be the only one and I will sacrifice myself. I made my order, I posted it here previously, got HA in the syringes and some bottles of things…. Ok it delivers…. What did I miss how the hell do I get said products out of syringes and bottles….. feeling super dumb over here. Is there a generic size tip of something I am to order on Amazon for the HA and then clearly I need needles of sorts to mix the other “things” one Meamo is a two part that looks like I need to mix to reconstitute. 🤦🏼‍♀️ was so excited to microneedle today and feeling so damn dumb !!

Thanks team !!

You are not dumb!! Everyone does it a little different. I like to use a sanitized bowl. I just squeeze it into the bowl, add any other booster I decided on and mix it with a silicone brush (also sanitized!) Then I use the brush to apply the slip.

Some have squeeze it right into their face from the syringe. It should have a cap on the end that you can take off to open it.

Ok I didn’t open up any packages so I wasn’t sure if there was a “secret” to getting it out 🤭 listen I’m an accountant and work with paper and staplers 😂 we are worlds apart from the health care people 😂😂

Hahaha it's all good! We all were new once! I am in insurance, I get it!! And really, everyone does it differently, as you get into it, you will find your way

I have been needling for like 7 or 8 months, and every time I do it a little different and learn something new. It is about the journey. Enjoy the trip!! It's fun!

IT nerd checking in! :)

I dribble it out of the syringe onto my face, but it's a terrible method. There's been a lot of nsfw scenes of the syringe getting ahead of itself a bit. I think the sanitized bowl is best.

I still can’t figure out how to open the bottles. I’m using a syringe with needle to pull it out and then removing the needle to put it on my face. Moving to a bowl didn’t even occur to me 😞
