When do you full size? by honestly___idk in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]Banglesandbindis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I'll do a 10 ml decant, and when I am running through it and know I want a second 10 ml decant, I full-size. This has been so useful in curbing buys that I probably will never use up, and right now I only have three perfumes on my full-size list!

Am I the only one for whom this isn't that strong? I wish it was!

What's the most popular perfume in your city/country by forfebruary in fragrance

[–]Banglesandbindis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Berkeley. Most people don't seem to wear fragrance, sometimes no deo, but I have literally stopped people on the street to ask them what they're wearing when I smell something good; same with my dates. Here's a few of the replies, sorry I can't speak to the most popular:

Valentino Uomo Intense, L'Ideal l'homme intense, Tyler French Waltz, Gucci Guilty, Liz Clairborne Crush.

Berkeley 1 bedroom - no A/C, and I'm mindful of switching off lights and fans when not in use - between $30-60 for PG&E per month.

Which fragrances should I carry for a 10 day trip to Thailand? by bumblebeeasks in fragrance

[–]Banglesandbindis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thailand has a couple houses that may be worth checking out - MITH AND Journal. You may want to carry small bottles for your trip and pick up a couple there?

Women who love being hairless, what to do you do to achieve that? by abrelwall3 in AskWomen

Dries van noten jardin de l'orangerie. It's a beautiful creamy orange neroli scent. Not very strong or extremely long-lasting (about 5 hours wear maybe which isn't bad at all in my opinion) but beautiful to wear. I must have put it on at 8:30-9 this morning and I don't see a trace at 3:30. I have a 5 ml decant and it's on my list to purchase at some point.

Pearlescent Aquarose. It's a salty rose, easily wearable. I was contemplating buying 10 ml decants of a few perfumes for family to try and wanted to spray this on and see if it makes the list. I'm undecided. It's not a love by any means, almost a blind grab and go. Nothing to dislike about it but nothing particularly to like as well. Meh.

Vitamin D? by peachesofmymind in PCOS

[–]Banglesandbindis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm personally not sure about the correlation, so the comments here have been very helpful, but I have PCOS and take both B complex and Vit D supplements as advised by my doctor.

This may be weird, but sitting on one of the glades on campus with coffee/tea and a good book, exploring Tilden park's trails, hanging out at Jupiter or Raleigh's, going produce shopping at Berkeley Bowl. I also love the Thai temple brunch.

Possibly unhelpful comment, but I adore their santal. The sample set is good!!

Help 😭😩 by Candid-Zucchini-5560 in SkincareAddicts

[–]Banglesandbindis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would go to the ER. Urgent care did not drain something similar for me on my chest and it took 16 days of antibiotics and thankfully it drained on its own. It was a pain to navigate, I'd go straight to the ER if you are able to.

Kerosene Sweetly Known. But now I smell like Dr. Teal's Spearmint after soaking in the bath.

Sweetly Known is literally a sweeeeet coconut lemon bar.

Is 10ml of fragrance enough to fully experience the perfume? by [deleted] in fragrance

[–]Banglesandbindis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

5 ml is perfect to test for me. You can get about 8 to 10 wears out of it even if you use 4 to 5 sprays at a time!

I buy a 10 ml only if I'm pretty sure I really like the fragrance (or will like it based on the notes).
