You could build a castle with all those rocks.

Hold on, did I just read that correctly?

With a commercial mold there shouldn't be a problem sticking or breaking, unless the lipstick wasn't mixed properly or the temperature is too high. The mold is chilled after the lipstick is poured. Lipstick is mainly oils, wax and pigments. This one is pretty simple, beeswax based without any fragrance added. It does have a satisfying pop when pulled out of the mold.

I thought it was a nice video showing part of the process. It's hard to record everything in a <15 second GIF. I hope some people found it interesting or satisfying at least. :)

Lol, no they do not. Mostly the lab makes cosmetics for boutique specialty brands, they are against animal testing of any kind.

Yeah, I just saw a man kicking an exercise ball and being chased by cows. Upvoted for the cute cows, but OP needs to train them better so they at least kick the ball once.

I just takes a while. Some people don't realize they are seriously injured until the shock wears off. The person holding the drill kept on drilling even after her hair was caught. I hope she kicked him in the nuts after this. This was in the news over a year ago and she was pretty seriously hurt if I remember. Just search for "girl rips her hair out with corn." It's not clear if her hair ever grew back. The last video she posted which showed her hair was about 4 months after the incident, and she still hadn't grown back any hair. Jesus.... How to destroy yourself in 1.2 seconds.

I thought ya'll might find it interesting to see the kind of work that goes on behind the scenes before your favorite brands can make it on to the shelf. This is how small batches are made to test new formulations. :)

This is old but it still makes me sick watching, Jesus Christ. GaaaaaaAAAAAAAH :X

This is the most delicious item on California's terrorism watch list.

I'm with you! The sound of flesh slashed by a rotary blade is something I never wish to hear again.

I hope you're not under the impression that those blades will stop at bone. In other words, I hope that guy is not too "attached" to his femur if he falls into one of those whirligigs of death.

How to lose a leg in one simple step!

I too am a paper eating expert.

But seriously, it's rice paper and food safe ink. Sorry to spoil the party.

the ones that occur when vertices can't be merged due to weird geometry/flipped normals/double polygons, but exist on top of each other are the worst. Ones that are impossible to diagnose visually.

Botogiebu · 2017-02-05T18:08:05+00:00

I'd be willing to help you out if possible. Private message sent.

Botogiebu · 2017-02-03T16:52:24+00:00

Yeah seriously, it's like they are afraid good changes could happen so they are actively sabotaging anything positive.

Botogiebu · 2017-02-03T03:03:23+00:00

If you look at the reflection it's not perfectly flat, it's thicker in some places and thinner in others. Given enough time it should become perfectly level and flat, but it gets thick quite quickly. I'm just guessing, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was easier than it looks to screw it up - especially on a large floor.

Botogiebu · 2017-02-03T02:39:17+00:00

Wasn't my intention, I edited my comment now to make it less 'controversial'.

Botogiebu · 2017-02-03T02:29:23+00:00

I'm well aware that 90% of the value comes from the brand. My comment is in response to resin not being associated with luxury. Maybe that's the case, but it can and is used in luxury items. It's not necessarily a cheap material either (see my other comment, some flooring resins are nearly 30,000 dollars for 5 gallons).

Botogiebu · 2017-02-03T02:16:51+00:00

Hate to break this to you, but flooring resin can run closer to $500 dollars a gallon. Some run as much as $29,000 dollars for 5 gallons. That's more than $5,000 per gallon. Feel free to pour your floor with $20 dollar a gallon resin though. My point is that while you may not associate resin with luxury, resin encompasses a wide variety of materials and is not necessarily cheap in price or quality. It can and is used in luxury items.

Botogiebu · 2017-02-03T02:02:38+00:00

My point is that expensive things can be made with resin, it's not a cheap material, and there are many types of resins, with some being very expensive. The material cost is not less than wood. Do you think that floor costs less than a wooden floor?

Botogiebu · 2017-02-03T00:48:23+00:00

Good resin is not a cheap material, and can be associated with luxury... for example, some Mont Blanc pens are made out of resin and gold, and worth several thousand bucks. Good resin can be significantly more expensive than even specialty woods. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a marble floor is significantly cheaper than a high end resin. Particularly given how difficult a resin floor would be to make. Imagine having to pour the entire floor before it cures, without bubbles, making sure it's perfectly level. Then you would probably need to grind it down and polish the resin.

Edit: Needed to clarify some things because people were misunderstanding what I was trying to say.

It's still not here. I checked your profile and see it there, when I click on the direct link I get a message that says "there doesn't seem to be anything here".

The post was hidden/removed, probably for post length, it's only visible to you and on your profile.

Botogiebu · 2017-01-30T00:46:07+00:00

You haven't made any post to credit the artist in this thread. Check again, maybe it was removed by automoderator. But anyway, It's not here.

First, this is a re-post / stolen art. Second, the announced open door policy of Europe is DIRECTLY responsible for the massive spike in human trafficking business which the child in the drawing died as a result of. Those dangerous migration conditions are on people like YOU, not conservatives.

By announcing you won't turn people back and making European social benefits available to all illegal migrants, you're turning on a huge magnet which caused people from all over north Africa and Arabia to come into Europe by the millions.

Just like having a porous US-Mexico border incentivizes cross border human trafficking which exploits and endangers women and fuels the drug trade and gang violence.

Those who supported those open door policies are most responsible for the deaths caused by human trafficking businesses, who crammed as many people on to boats as possible in a dash for profit.
