hey, i'm someone who doesn't have much friends and single ofc... and really believe the HALLOW EFFECT (people treat you better the more attractive you are) and don't really give a f. about my life too much and ready to take risks to enhance my look. i'm on week 5, 2mg reta and week 7 or 8 on accutane (only for the purpose of the nose job) I even took accutane tho I didn't have a single acne on my face only to improve my look.

i've read of peptides like

ghk-cu

glow

klow.....

and many more to the point where I ask myself what peptide would make me really glow up and make me in preferably a small period of time unrecognizable to the others.

I really appreciate any help and any opinions on this topic 🙂
 
The halo effect is real and I get where you're coming from, but I think the peptide stack is probably the last piece of this puzzle rather than the first. Reta is a great start but if the goal is to genuinely look and feel different to people around you, the bigger wins are going to come from building a solid workout routine alongside it. Losing weight without resistance training is how you end up skinny fat, which isn't really the glow up you're going for.

Confidence and how you carry yourself honestly plays a bigger role in how people perceive you than most people give it credit for. That part comes from putting in the work and seeing real results over time, not from adding more peptides to the mix.

As for the skin focused stuff, I could be wrong but my understanding is that klow is more of a general wellness stack and not really dialed in on collagen or skin quality specifically. GHK-Cu gets talked about more directly for that. Worth doing a little more research before stacking a bunch of things on top of accutane especially.

Nail the basics first. Reta, resistance training, diet. The rest will follow.
 
One thing I’ve realized over the years is that you will attract the right people if you work on yourself. That involves investing time in working out at the gym, eating healthy to keep your mind and body fit, spending time on developing hobbies you are truly passionate about, and genuinely being happy with who you are, regardless of how you look.

That being said, if you need peptides to help you get closer to your goals, there is no harm in using them. As we don’t know what your goals are, it’s difficult to advise on anything specific. However, I do feel like tretinoin would have been a better option than accutane if you don’t have any acne issues.

It might sound a little bit weird, but my goal is to improve my look, specifically my face because like I mention earlier (the halo effect) and wanna have the confidence to approach women. looking better will def help me with that

Very useful information, thanks for that.

The thing is i'm already on the track like I'm currently on 15-14% bf and have good amount of muscles since i've been going to the gym consistent for the past 2 years or so and wouldn't consider myself overweight or ugly in any mean possible but I really find this world unfair since my goal is to find an attractive hot gf and to get to this level you have to be at the same league or level so she atleast considers giving you a chance. and here where my question earlier comes In hand, which peptide beside reta would give me that extra points I need in my facial attractiveness to attract women outside my league In the dating market

If physical appearance is the goal then honestly just keep hammering the weights. Lot's of good peptides to stack with a good routine to maximize gains. Worth getting your testosterone levels checked too if you haven't. TRT could be an option for you if your levels are low or if you want to really focus on building lean muscle.

Honestly though I don't think there's a magical peptide stack that's going to give you everything you want. Looks will only get you so far and someone who's only interested because you cleared some physical bar isn't really who you want anyway. Or maybe it is.

You've got the discipline, that's genuinely attractive to people and probably worth leaning into more than chasing facial improvements through peptides.

If appearance optimization is really the main goal there's a whole looksmaxxing community more suited to answer that than a GLP1Chat. But from where I'm sitting the bigger unlock here isn't physical.

Only peptide that will help is having a good personality. Wtf is this reasoning… you claim to not be ugly by any means but if you can’t hold a conversation or even speak to a woman you need to work on yourself. Speak to a therapist or dating coach.

Well, your best bet is to head over to South Korea for a glow up, if that’s what you truly want.

Otherwise, all you need are money and fame, and you will attract the category of women you describe, regardless of how you look.

But my recommendation would be to get off social media and work on yourself.

I can't give you Pep advice but. Man, all you need is confidence (Ladies don't shoot me). Most ladies don't look at you the way you think they do. Haven't you noticed very good looking women with dudes that look to us (men) like crap dudes look way below her but yet she's hanging on to him. If you are in shape fit like you say you just need to talk to them don't be intimidated all they can do is say no and no doesn't hurt you. Also remember the so called HOT girls could be total jurks. Go talk to what you think is a 5 she might turn out to be a real 10, social media makes people think a person has to fit into a certain look box... and it sounds like you have fallen for that. I am just giving you my .02 worth. Stop looking at everyone else think they are better than you. Stay in shape dress as good as you can afford and carry yourself with confidence and she will accept you for you. I have known plenty of guys that most of us would call ugly have girls that we think are way above them. The common thing with all these guys is confidence. My last word is alot of what you call 10s sit home because no one ask them out because they are intimidated. So go shoot your shot! Good Luck.

Hand on Heart, this might be the best advice i've ever heard in my enitre life.

Just reading that made me rethink my entire past and how blind I was, I'm really noticing that social media is what got me thinking like that specially "tiktok" since I spend hours non end scrolling through black pill edits and videos where the ugly guy gets rejected, humiliated and gets his girl taken by the attractive man
 
I am currently stacking Reta and Klow-- have been since right before the holidays last year. I am hitting the gym, diet is clean, and all that jazz. I started Klow for a few reasons, more internal than external.

That said, my skin has improved. Crow's feet are faded and almost gone. The crease between my eyebrows is filled in and just about nothing more than a distant memory. The skin on the back of my hands went from crinkly and thin to thicker and tighter.

Klow has resolved my gut issues. No more diverticulitis attacks or inflammation if I eat something I shouldn't (salad and green beans used to set me off). Gluten used to tear my guts up. I don't need to be eating gluten, but I can handle it now in small doses. My joints feel better as well.

I'm still waiting to see what Klow can do for my hair. Even if it doesn't do anything, I am in a much better place than I was last year, going into the holidays. Those who see me now comment on how much better I look- not just my skin, but the change in composition of my body. The time in the gym is really starting to show. I think Klow has helped here to since it can speed recovery and reduce inflammation.

For anyone considering or doing Klow, you have to give it time. Minimum of 3 months, but I would say 6 months for more noticeable/obvious results.

It was some great advice. Spending hours scrolling short form content is a purely addictive waste of time and is now known to harm cognition. You should explore meaningful hobbies to make yourself more interesting, gain experience, and interact with real people.
 
Honestly, personality...good humor, dress nice, have a good haircut...keep your facial hair tidy if you have it...those will do more for you than any pep will
 
If appearance is your goal maybe look into aesthetics vs peptides. That said, as a woman I can say that confidence is MUCH more attractive than just having a nice face. Oh, and great hygiene, of course!

I understand why you think the way you do, but when you reach your destination you're going to realize that you pegged things way wrong.

You assume that the female brain and attraction triggers work similar to how yours do (e.g. "hotness" being the ultimately key to success) and they simply don't. If you look around you'll see many (if not most) hot women with rather average looking men and there's a complex set of reasons for this. Men and women typically respond to different triggers in different ways. Becoming more attractive obviously doesn't hurt, but the weightlifting advice you already got is probably your best advice.

Also, when you reach your goal, you're going to find it deeply dissatisfying. The hole that you perceive in your life and confidence won't be filled by having a gf. In the end it will be similar to meeting any other need. Like a hungry person finally getting a sandwich will feel great as they're eating the sandwich, but even an unlimited supply of sandwiches won't have a deeper or more profound effect on their life. Further, this lack of confidence will all but guarantee that the only "hot" gf that you're able to attract will suffer from BPD or similar, since any "hot" woman without flaws like that will usually hold out for a guy who doesn't exude a strong lack of confidence in such an obvious manner. You'll have expected getting a relationship to make you a winner or define your life in some significant way and it just won't do that to the level that you're thinking it will.

I truly believe in what’s your saying, and everyone keeps saying focus on yourself and keep weightlifting and eventually you will find someone. which I find funny since in my book it’s not how it works in real life unless your an “attractive” guy. Not a single girl would approach or talk to you with the intention of being together as a couple if you don’t chase or at least talk to them you will probably get rejected 5+ times and fall into depression (talking if your a normal looking dude).

What you're missing is that when you do find someone you'll realize that although it's nice, it's not nearly as "amazing" as you've convinced yourself it's going to be. Right now you're viewing getting your first gf as a lifechanging experience that will redefine who you are.

Think back to when you were a kid and there was something that you really wanted and had to wait for and you just knew that when you finally got it that it would be the most amazing thing ever. Then when you finally got it, it was pretty neat, but then you took it for granted and wondered why you'd made such a big fuss about it. Like you didn't want to give it up, but it didn't redefine your life and happiness. It was just a nice thing to have.

That's why people tell you to focus on yourself. When you get your first gf, it will be "neat," but you'll realize it's not as great as you've convinced yourself that it's going to be and there's going to be a certain emptiness that comes when you realize that the reality can't live up to the fantasy that you've created. In fact, the only thing that will fix that emptiness ultimately will be focusing on yourself. You're not able to hear this and accept this right now and that's okay. But just trust that there's a reason we're all saying the same thing and maybe hit the gym. It's not like you have to choose between the two. You can both hit the gym and try to get a gf without one interfering with the other.
 
Also, I'm not trying to necro threads, but you probably also already look good enough to get women to consider you if you're bringing something intriguing with you. Most men do, which is how I know you probably do.

I and every woman I know have dated dudes who weren't handsome because they brought something else attractive. I've loved a dude who could sing, one who could dance, one who could paint, and married a balding Canadian briefly who was good at QA work and was interesting when he talked about it. I also tried mildly but over a long period of time to snag one who could code VERY well and creatively. I have slept with one who could teach motor skills very well, one who was a DM at tabletop games, one who could do stage magic, SEVERAL speech and debate champions in my youth, and more dudes who were funny and could turn a phrase or knew a truth or ten I respected. I've only dated one or two guys in my life that most people would agree were handsome. And the few who WERE traditionally handsome are not the ones I still dream about sometimes, years or decades later. And I'm not an anomaly. What good is a pretty man to me? What's a pretty man gonna DO that I like? Fine if he IS pretty, but it's not going to move the needle.

I mean, go make your face pretty if you want, nothing wrong with it, but you'd be better off going and getting really good at something interesting. Most of the guys I know who do that are too busy getting laid to doomscroll insecurity-kink content on TikTok.
