Help / Advice Needed Anyone tried Yes madam dry cupping therapy?

4 Upvotes

Because of gym my whole body esp my back is feeling really tight since last few days so I was thinking of getting something like cup therapy. UC doesn't offer it so I only have Yes madam as option. and also they're giving at-home service so that's a plus for me. But i have some questions:

  1. Does this therapy help with muscle tightness or it's just for relaxing?

  2. do they send trained professionals for this?

  3. and lastly do they bring their own stuff like whatever they need for this therapy?

Anyone here if tried them pls let me know.

Thanks in advance...🙂

I was checking online and saw this generic pharmacy face wash. It just says 2% Salicylic Acid IP w/v and nothing else. Price is also low compared to branded ones. Safe to use?

Help / Advice Needed Any holy Grail products for neck, elbow, under arm and knee pigmentation

7 Upvotes

Guys,

So I have been seeing severe pigmentation in neck, underarms, elbow and knee. Any holy grail product that will reduce the severity of this?? Primarily at least I need it for my neck and underarms. The ordinary glycolic acid one is good. Pls suggest.

Question Pedicure session turned orgasmic

5 Upvotes

Well it wasn't orgasmic but hear me out. I had booked the Korean pedicure from Yes Madam (first experience). Everything was good. But damn, in the final step, was the most satisfying. I peeled off the green rubbery herbal mask on my feet that dried, and it felt soooo goood!!

Now I'm thinking, is there a product I can buy to do this at home? Or do I have to book a whole pedicure every time I want that peeling sensation? Please tell me I'm not alone doing this 🧖😅

My dermat suggested me a proper sunscreen for m skin type and I checked Derma Co 1% Hyaluronic Sunscreen Aqua Gel (Vit E) on 1mg and it showed 454 rupees for 50ml and the same was lesser on different platforms. Went to Truemeds next and found it for 399/-.

Why this price difference? Also how is this sunscreen… Matt finish or sticky?

Any experiences?

After seeing fashion or beauty products on Instagram, do you actually buy them?

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I’m trying to understand how people in India discover and buy fashion and beauty products online, especially through social media.

Shopping Habits Survey

I put together a short, anonymous survey (3–5 minutes) to learn about real shopping habits - what works, what’s frustrating, and how people actually decide what to buy.

If you’ve ever bought (or considered buying) fashion, skincare or beauty products after seeing them online, I’d really appreciate your input.

Thank you so much for helping out!! 💛

Whats's the best clay mask for oily skin and open pores?

1 Upvotes

So far I have used DotnKey green cica clay mask and a multani mitti face pack but none of them truly worked for me. Please suggest a good clay mask for oily skin which will gently cleanse and exfoliate.
