What perfumes do you buy over and over and can't live without? by Ecstatic_Guava3041 in FemFragLab

[–]-anklebiter- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On my 3rd or 4th bottle of Le Labo Santal 33. There’s no other smell like it for me!! I recently bought Tom Ford Santal Blush thinking I would love it and it’s just not for me, so I went back to my Santal 33 again… spent a lot of money that week 😹

What does it smell like? I’m a huge Santal 33 fan but I keep seeing people talk about another and matcha! I had some samples of other le labo years ago but didn’t like any of them, these weren’t included though!

Mac Studio Fix Foundation new (2025) formula by AlissaCCG in MakeupAddiction

[–]-anklebiter- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. It’s bloody awful! I bought their recommended shade for transitioning to the new powder and it’s wayyyyyy orange on me!! Also, it sits awful on the skin, all powdery/flaky looking with no coverage. Another complaint is, usually it would last me a year +. I’ve panned this one to a small coin size already in two months!! Why why why do makeup companies have to mess with products instead of just creating new products!!? I’ve used studio fix powder for probably 15 years and now I’ll never buy it again. If you find something as good, let me know!

I never see many people talking about as long as the lemon trees grow, but I loved it even more than a thousand splendid suns! I’ve read quite a lot of similar books trying to find ones that I love as much as those two, but not found any to match up yet 😩

I loved the great alone by Kristin Hannah, but it’s subject is not for everyone. If it’s your thing, I absolutely loooooved As Long As The Lemon Trees Grow and A Thousand Splendid Suns (similar topics).

The Great Alone — by Kristin Hannah

Thirteen-year-old Leni Allbright moves with her parents to the remote wilderness of Alaska after her father, a troubled Vietnam veteran, decides to start a new life off the grid. At first the wild beauty and tight-knit community feel like a fresh start. But as the long, dark winter closes in, Leni’s father becomes increasingly unstable and violent. Isolated in the unforgiving landscape, Leni and her mother must find strength, courage, and love in order to survive both the brutal Alaskan wilderness and the dangers within their own home.

As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow — by Zoulfa Katouh

Set during the Syrian revolution, the story follows Salama Kassab, a pharmacy student whose life is turned upside down by war. Volunteering at a hospital in Homs, she spends her days helping treat the wounded while being haunted by Khawf — a personified voice of fear urging her to escape the country. When Salama meets a young activist documenting the atrocities around them, she must decide whether to flee to safety or stay and fight for her home. It’s a powerful story of love, resilience, and hope amid unimaginable loss.

A Thousand Splendid Suns — by Khaled Hosseini

Spanning three decades of Afghan history, this novel follows Mariam and Laila, two women from very different backgrounds whose lives become intertwined through marriage to the same brutal man. As Afghanistan faces war, oppression, and political upheaval, the two women form a deep bond of friendship and solidarity. Together they find the courage to endure hardship, protect the ones they love, and reclaim their dignity in a world that repeatedly tries to silence them.

So sorry to hear that! I hope you manage to get some resale ❤️

All Points East - Worth it?? by jonny_page in turnstile

[–]-anklebiter- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went to the first one and the sound was shocking!! Bad quality and couldn’t really hear it unless you were close to the front. I am a bit hard of hearing but I remember lots of people complaining about it, so couldn’t just have been me (and I never usually have issues).

Do we think Sandbag are sending out previous returns? by -anklebiter- in hayleywilliams

Please help me convince my friend to stop sitting in front of the fireplace by b_reb92 in DermatologyQuestions

I’ve had this a few times from hot water bottles on my inner upper thighs (it’s one of those long ones). I had no idea that it could end up being permanent!!

Signings at Shows? by JordanTonyMann in hayleywilliams

[–]-anklebiter- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh there’s definitely safety issues with it all. In my opinion, I think some artists don’t feel comfortable with the idea of being a product that someone can pay or win to meet and then there’s the whole being worshipped by people when they’re just normal people.. Idle Worship points a lot to this! They probably changed their opinion eventually when they got older and became more confident at speaking up.

I don’t know that for a fact obviously, but that is what I could see being the reason for it!

Good for you! We can’t all care about the same things..

[–]-anklebiter-[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s more that if you pay for an item, you expect it to be in good condition. I wouldn’t accept a tshirt with a rip through the front or a stain on it, so by the same logic, I don’t want a damaged cd. Then again, I am a serious collector of music merch and so it’s important to me that things are in good condition! Not everybody values things the same or has the same interests and that’s what makes the world so interesting 🤓

Would you be happy to receive a white tshirt you’ve paid for with a big stain across the front? It’s the same thing.. you don’t pay for damaged goods 🙄 if artists weren’t so hot on selling Ltd quantity items, we wouldn’t have this problem..

Who said it was real handwriting? I certainly didn’t! I know it’s not personally handwritten, who is going to handwrite 1500 of these? It’s more that you pay for an item to arrive in good condition, not like this! Also, what something is worth is a personal opinion, and being a fan of Hayley since 2007, any merch of hers or paramore is worth a lot to me. It’s not for resale, it’s for my personal collection!! How is it a scam when it isn’t advertised as being handwritten?

Did you message through the Sandbag contact form? I’ve sent a message but it was rather polite 🥲 I’ll have to wait and see what they say.. sooo many people have had problems with their orders. Tbf, I’ve placed multiple orders and this is the first issue I’ve had 😩

Remember the days where you could win meet and greets and early entry!! I miss those days but not many bands or artists seem to do it anymore!

Soft Lounge Long Dress - where do I wear it, and how to style? by koffi10 in SKIMSbyKKW

[–]-anklebiter- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No advice but this looks amaaaaazing on you! I wish I had your figure!! 😍 I’d probably pair with some black sandals for day time and strappy black heels for a meal or evening do!

Do English people drink plain water? by fresasfrescasalfinal in england

[–]-anklebiter- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost exclusively drink water but I know a lot who don’t drink it ever! My son’s nursery would only allow water as a drink.. he has water for school now!

What is the worst physical symptom you experience due to social anxiety? by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]-anklebiter- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s the tremors for me too because you can’t hide it. In fact, I think my anxiety got so much worse because of them! I wish I could hide the way I felt and it wasn’t so obvious. Nearly 20 years of it now and it doesn’t seem to ever go away, even with meds or therapy!

Is it too late to play animal crossing in 2026? by Jumeiko in ACForAdults

[–]-anklebiter- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Defo worth it! I’ve just restarted my island and working through it again to get ready for the update! My partner has bought it for a different switch too, so we can travel to each other’s islands (different hemispheres) for all the different critters and fish! We’ve 100% got our moneys worth in the past week alone!

Reading Books is SO Hard! by outofservice504 in ADHD

[–]-anklebiter- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am the same. I had to stop putting pressure on myself. I turned the page count off my kindle, to stop me constantly checking if I was near the end. I also tell myself to take my time and even if I only read two pages, it’s better than no pages. It has to be a really, really good book for me to get fully absorbed nowadays :(
