So usually those pens just get clogged with the oil.
Suck it like a blocked milkshake straw. Really hard with forward mouth placement. You're basically using your mouth as a plunger to clear the blockage.
I've tried using a toothpick to clear them, but not to much success.
yeah, I've been using that forward-tongue hard-suck to clear it in the past, but it's getting harder and harder (to the point where my mouth hurts like minutes afterwards), and now sometimes after I suck, there is all this sticky stuff that comes up and gets all over the pen - very annoying
I also have found a toothpick hasn't helped, so I wasn't sure if there was some trick to this ๐ or is this just a really shitty product and I should have known better?
Sounds like a shit cart. But I've had carts from good brands bleed like that before.
Tbh if you want pain relief, just get an edible and eat it when you go in for hair removal lol.
I usually use a tincture, but edibles fuck me up for hours and it's a lot harder to control how high I am during the session (I can get too high, and it can increase distress; or I can be still waiting for the come-up - and this depends not just on how much I took, how long I held it under my tongue, when I took it, but also when I last had a meal or whether I took it before or after a meal, etc.)
whereas hitting a cart lets me control it much better and doesn't leave me disabled later
