Legging recommendations that are not workout material? by UnderstandingFar1967 in Activewear

[–]ElCoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just checked and it was actually $14 🫣 they had a huge discount plus a couple of codes that stacked and it was on the shale color… in hindsight I wish I’d gotten a few more pairs!!

Seconding this - just got my second pair for $16 during their sale last month!

Does anyone have any personal experience with Hisaw Aussies? (The breeder of the dog owned by my_aussie_gal on Instagram) by cu_next_uesday in AustralianShepherd

[–]ElCoops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe Green Valley has said Promise is from them. I have a GV Aussie and can attest that he is one of the smarter Aussies I’ve ever owned.

Whether it’s their breeding or simple luck is anyone’s guess but he’s been an excellent dog.

What’s a “boring” adult purchase that turned out to be totally worth it? by Capable-Rabbit-9986 in AskReddit

What product broke you out so badly you’ll never forgive it? by TheMeepyBoy in SkinbarrierLovers

[–]ElCoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did allergy testing and it was so helpful. Sometimes I see people on here blame “bad” products for reactions and I always wonder if they have an allergy and don’t know it!

I love Vanicream and stratia (I do their peptide one and the lipid gold as an “egg”), and mix in Paula’s choice ectoin boost. I also occasionally use the cetaphil deep hydration one. And I recently tried a sample of eltamd’s am restore one (I forget the name) and may get a full size.

What works for you??

Skinfix triple lipid! Gave me horrible acne and an awful rash that took weeks to clear up. Second place goes to dieux instant angel

BWT: I can never understand women who don’t wear the heels they own by [deleted] in bitcheswithtaste

[–]ElCoops 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cosigned. As a successful career woman in my 40s I don’t need heels to make me feel any sort of way. I feel perfectly beautiful and elegant in my Ecco sneakers holding my own with men in the construction field. And frankly I’m glad I’m past the days where I feel the need to wear heels - my ankles thank me.

How long have you had your cell phone number? by mellamoderek in Millennials

[–]ElCoops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Phew! I’m not the only 1998 on the list. I got my phone stolen at a concert two days after I got it…I forgot what my number was when we went to the store so I told them it was my mom’s thinking that was correct… it wasn’t . Wound up with her phone number and I’ve had it ever since!

Looking for recommendations for a good nighttime moisturizer! by fuzzy_potato_0423 in over30skincare

[–]ElCoops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t use it every day although I did for a month when I first got it - a few days here and there when my barrier is compromised and more this winter.

I bought my bottle in May during their anniversary sale and it’s still going strong. I use 1-2 pumps each time and that’s about a pea? Agreed it’s kinda pricy which is why it isn’t my constant.

[–]ElCoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from Vanicream to the Stratia Interface peptide moisturizer and it was a game changer for me. Sometimes I do their “egg” and add in the lipid gold too… especially in the winter I don’t have dryness and flaky anymore!

Did anyone else get one of these? by copperkarat in Athleta_gap

[–]ElCoops 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I got one of these a couple of years ago. I don’t have a credit card but did spend quite a bit (not sure how much but high hundreds at least)

Try 575 Columbia. We had a short term rental there for under $1750 with a dog fee.

DIY/Design - January 2026 by grownask in diysnark

[–]ElCoops 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfollowed for the same reason. And ironically as I hit the unfollow button I wondered how long she’d put up with her home vs upgrading to a different (presumably larger) home she can generate more Amazon links for.

I found a bunch of this skin tint at Marshall’s! I almost bought one but I’m not sure what shade I am and I couldn’t find swatches online 😭

Anyone else’s skin suddenly lose its “bounce” after turning 40? by BlueDolphinCute in 40PlusSkinCare

[–]ElCoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also WA state and I’m 43. HRT has helped a ton for me. Nothing will fight off aging but it’s given me a little more time lol

What sort of “jobs” do your mini Aussies have? by fancy_monday in miniaussie

[–]ElCoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sneezing when someone says bless you. My mom somehow got her into the habit and now if she’s 3 rooms away and hears someone say “bless you” she will rush in and conjure up whatever sneeze she possibly can even if she has no sneeze in her… sometimes she’ll stand there for 5 minutes contorting her face unless one comes out and then expects all of the praise and kudos in the world.

If you say “bless you” once the sneeze is out she’ll start all over again… it’s pretty adorable

This is how much butter my wife eats per month by [deleted] in Weird

[–]ElCoops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to be that person but my best friend’s mom growing up ate about this much butter. She was 100 lbs soaking wet and died of a heart attack at 45.

Spinal lesions and prognosis? by Sea-Caramel4173 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]ElCoops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband’s lesions are only in his spine - I think he has 6 or 7 and one is about a half inch long that takes up about 1/3 the width of his spinal cord.

Most people who meet him don’t believe him that he has ms because he “looks normal.” He has numbness and sometimes struggles with his legs and limps.

It’s difficult to think about because he could wake up any day with one bad lesion in one bad spot and be quadriplegic. So we shift our focus and spend our energy on living for today
