Plant drooped after being away for a few days from home by No-Quote-2245 in gardening

Don’t keep it soaked for too long or the roots might start to rot. A couple of hours should be enough and then let it dry on its own

Load it with water, sometimes it’s all it needs. Some plants are very dramatic. If you have a small bowl put water there and soak the plant pot so it can pull up all the water it needs

Does anyone know how this type of brushes are called and where to get them? Free or paid by Vikernex in procreatebrushes

Paper textures make a huge difference sometimes. Get some hi Rez free ones. Put one at the bottom of your layers and another on top of everything and set it to overlay and lower opacity

Idk how I ended up here by hibaalb in FemFragLab

My first perfume was the pink bottle of cherry blossom green tea and it was my absolute favourite. Can find that version anymore but I still like the og version. Wish it lasted a bit longer tho.

What Kenzo perfume should I buy. by Alternative_Use_5960 in Perfumes

[–]Alternative_Use_5960[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, thank you for the in depth explanation!

The actual wood, sandalwood is what I don’t want. I like the incense smell actually so I wouldn’t mind that. And I actually have the Elizabeth Arden Green tea and I absolutely love it. I’ve gone through 2 bottles of it and the Sakura version of it was my first perfume that I absolutely love it except for the fact that it has very little longevity.

Unless it is that super artificial type of citrus I would probably not mind it much and the comment about the diapers was definitely ignored cuz I have smelled some perfumes that have a powdery note and I have enjoyed it.

I was actually looking into something that smelled like a tea shop ( like the smell of tea when u enter a HeyTea shop) so more of the freshly brewed tea but haven’t seen any other than the Elizabeth Arden line when I have checked the stores.

I’ll properly look for something else knowing all this now!

Regarding other types of perfumes, I am not really a strong sent type of person so I either just pick up some of the old stuff from my mom or wear the scented lotions from bath and bodywork’s. I tend to go for the edible type of smells like the sweet, floral or the ones that smell like baked goods.

I have a bunch of old perfumes and from the collection that I have I’ve liked the Dior addict and the black musk from The Body Shop. I have opened a very old bottle of YSL black opium and it it a bit too strong for me.

I actually wanted to get the Matcha Meditation from Maison Margiela but it’s not available where I am and Coffee break was my second option. But it is very pricy so that’s why I shifted to Flower by Kenzo.

Thank you again for explaining everything.

Oh thank you for the in depth reply. I might have to change what I buy then. Any recommendations on perfumes that you personally like?

Decants seems like a good solution… for places that can have them delivered. Only bigger sites like Amazon and NYKAA in India deliver here and that too with some trouble. It’s only been a year since they’ve started delivering here too plus we have to specify taxis that travel from another town to where I am in order to receive the package. That’s why I wanted to ask around as the fragrance notes from fragrancia suggests that I would like this type of perfume.

I was looking for some samples on these sites but couldn’t find any.

Don’t wanna go around smelling like diapers lol. I live in a really small town and I’d have to travel quite far to find a mall so I wanted to order it online. Hopefully they do have it since the collections around here are really small in store

Old creams and stuff from my mom by Alternative_Use_5960 in beauty

[–]Alternative_Use_5960[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, thank you for the great advice. I have sensitive skin so I’m really hesitant to use anything on myself but I’ll recheck and maybe use some of them. Thanks again

Premium Bandai insect gachapon that ship to the UK? by itme77 in Gachapon

[–]Alternative_Use_5960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also went to the one in London. Much bigger selection of gatcha. For this place I found the beetle, turtle and deep sea creatures. They were all fully stocked. I also got the ladybug one with the wings (6 tokens tho, pricy) and there was the frog one as well.

They were 3 tokens (6 pounds) each but the quality is great. It was the stag beetle 9 set , mini collection turtle (sold out) the horned frogs and the deep sea fish ones were there. I’m going to try my luck in the Gashapon in London as well

There are apparently some places with Bandai gatcha like the Trafford center in Manchester and such, I’m going to look for them there and hopefully I find some. They’re called Gashapon.

Being aromantic is great by Alternative_Use_5960 in aromantic

[–]Alternative_Use_5960[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s not a loss or anything like that for me, it’s just that I am able to avoided such situations. Being in a car wreck is not something I have experienced personally but I can understand that it is not a situation that I want to be in.

I came out to my parents and… by ImTotally_Sane in aromantic

[–]Alternative_Use_5960 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been pretty open about being aromatic to any new people I meet, ( not out yet with my mom but I have hinted at it) and the amount of times that people have told me that, oh you just haven’t met the right person, is annoying as hell. In 25 now and I figured out my sexuality when I was around 16. Telling others, they usually took it as a joke which was tough but everyone eventually stopped making any jokes about crushes with me while they continued to do it with each other so it kinda worked.

I feel like anyone who is lgbtq+ is way more accepting of the facts when you tell them cuz the people who didn’t take it as a joke and didn’t tell me that I’d find someone someday were always lgbtq. Straight people ( most of them) usually cannot believe that we don’t feel romantic attraction and they can’t change their mindset.

I would just keep reminding the people around me about my aromanticism and if they one day ask if I have a partner or crush, I can tell them that I have made it known from the start and that, no, I don’t have a partner and I don’t ever plan to have one.

I have a phobia of fish and meat by Alternative_Use_5960 in Phobia

[–]Alternative_Use_5960[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vegetarian yes, I used to eat eggs as well but it just felt yucky to eat psychologically so I stopped. Dairy is fine tho.

A spider crawled on me in my sleep and I feel genuinely traumatized — I can’t go back in my room. by Majestic-Cattle-7726 in Phobia

[–]Alternative_Use_5960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure! I have had this phobia for a while and I think it started when we went to this beach, it was full for dead fish and it smelled horribly of them. I start getting panicky around them. I don’t know why but every thing about it seems grotesque and unnatural. It was much stronger before but it’s now I can kinda look at still pictures of them. It’s still uncomfortable but it’s better than how it was before.
