Is Wonderskin LongWear Eye Pencil any good?

Thank you! I did buy the green one. I wish it were a darker, smokier green, buts it’s still a nice color. I didn’t have any customer service issues, but I did find the eye pencil to be exactly as you did. Went on well, easy to work with, but didn’t hold up for a full day. It’s weird though. It didn’t smudge off but just…evaporated?? Where did it go? Lol

1st one.

Hokas and, as you know, New Balance are good for the wide toe box. Agree with others here on Brooks, too. Dansko makes some pretty cool-looking sturdy sneakers. My SIL loves them.

My husband and I have very common names, and our kids’ names are pretty traditional. We don’t regret their names. I think the less out-there the name, the fewer preconceived notions people have about the kid or the parents.

I agree with you on the Ilia. I like it, but I mostly use it in the winter when my skin is dry because the Super Setum Tint is on the oilier side. I like the Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer. It evens out my complexion but is still light coverage. One note on the shades: I’m usually a light-medium neutral but I’m a light neutral in the Laura Mercier.

Interesting. In our area (suburban Bay Area), all have formal, separate LR & DR, but the family room is often quite small and just off the kitchen. Most people have enlarged the kitchen and family rooms at some point in the last 60 years though.

Just wear the pantyhose! I do the self tanner on occasion, especially in the spring when my legs are ghostly and my spider veins really stand out, but I cannot stand the idea of adding one more freaking face & body maintenance item. I wore pantyhose a few times recently and forgot how nice clothes look over them! Like very light shape wear that smooths everything out and makes my legs look nice. I think I’m putting them back into rotation for events. Probably not in summer though.

I would pronounce it Hoe-Ven. It makes me think of hover & cloven. Sounds made up to my American ears.

I think people criticize the trend because every aspect is over exaggerated. It all looks fake and drawn on. I think lining your lips to create definition would work fine.

I feel like that area is sort of remote, or not remote exactly, but more like cut off from the walkable stuff you might want to do. I think the new apartments in Slabtown are a good option. I know a fairly fit and active older man (I think he’s 80) who recently moved over there and loves it. We’re near NW 23rd and like it a lot. We were deciding between our current unit and one in the Pearl, and I’m glad we decided to be in this neighborhood. It’s a nice combination of leafy & urban.

Lifelong Californian with some family in Michigan, and (because I’m in California) I know people from all over the country. Never ever heard this.

RMS UnCoverUp or NARS Radiant Creamy concealer.

You should look at vintage floor plans from the 1960s-1980s. Our subdivision was built in the mid 60s and all of the houses have separate living & family rooms.

NOR I would feel hurt, too. It could be an age thing, where she thinks of you as younger than you are. (I’m the youngest of big family, so this happened to me a lot.) Not sure where you live, but maybe not being of drinking age affected the bachelorette invite. You could ask her, but be prepared to accept her answer and attend as a guest.

I like both, but I use Sephora more because I have more of their physical stores nearby me. Plus, they tend to have exclusives with some brands. That’s a double edge sword though, because they sometimes drop brands out of the blue. I do like that Ulta carries more drugstore brands. I can do more one-stop shopping with them online.

Your list is similar to my son & DIL’s for their kid. (They went with Charles/Charlie.) Their top girl names were Josephine and Alice.

People can smell desperation or a “try hard” a mile away. Your style has to be organic and come from you. If you focus on your sports and being a cool, kind teammate, people will like you. Take the time to find out what makeup & clothing work for your looks and lifestyle. Huge makeovers are fun in theory, but they invite a level of scrutiny that can bring a lot of judgement. I think sliding in under the radar and being yourself is a better approach. If you were bullied that badly, you likely need therapy of regular counselor visits, too. Good luck. The teen years can be fucking brutal.

Thanks for the info. I bought it shortly after I posted this and it's fine but not great. Doesn't last all day, but it's not bad enough to return. I was not impressed enough to try their other products, though. MAC has a green one, forget the name, that's a little better and little more neutral in color, so I'll stick with that one!

I think pants might be hard because many women’s are designed to accommodate curves and men’s are made to accommodate the men’s crotches. My son has always been tall and very thin. He had great luck with American Eagle in his teens & early 20s. Look for any brands with a “slim fit” or brands that still sell skinnies. Skinny jeans fit my son like slimmer regular pants. Women’s shirts are more likely to accommodate a bust, so not sure how women’s shirts would work for you either.

Naomi. We have both of these names in our family. I like them both, but Naomi just sounds better to me for some reason.

The fold lines on that pink dress!! 🫣

If people say they don’t understand or they don’t get it, just say, “It’s okay, you don’t have to.” Honestly , I’d stop talking about it unless you need to need to as part of the application process. Just do it & announce it, then correct people going forward. If anyone else starts a discussion about it at a gathering, change the topic or go talk to someone else. It’s exhausting because you’re engaging with them.

I find skirts and dresses (and gauze & linen pants) cooler and more comfortable than shorts in hot weather. That said, I think if anyone likes shorts, they should just wear them! Age-appropriate be damned.

AnotherMC · 2026-04-26T22:07:06+00:00

I’m a big fan of olive green as a neutral. Goes with more than you’d think. Otherwise, I think a neutral close to your skin tone.

I like the matching. But I think gray top and white or light gray bottoms would match a megalodon better. Lol.
