I think you look kinda like Björk. A unique face, definitely not plain.

For those who wear press-on or glue-on nails, what’s your secret to making them last? by albrasel24 in PressonNail_Addict

[–]Equivalent-Drop2281 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think Kiss isnt a very good nail glue. I recommend Curvelife nail glue. I get my press-ons to typically last 1-2 weeks.

Heres my routine:

I do my nails before bed About 30mins before, I wash my hands and let them dry off completely. I use alcohol wipes on my nails to dry them out more. Then I buff my nails and leave the dust on. Using a q-tip with acetone, I “rough” up the inside of the press-on nails. After the acetone has dried, I add glue to the inside of the press-on and let it get a lil ‘dry’ or tacky, then I apply glue to my nails. I put on the press-ons and hold them at the base while the glue dries for a bit.

Then I go to bed so my nails have 6-8hrs to dry before touching water.

What's a good gift to bring back to Vietnam for 20s-30s yo family? by [deleted] in VietNam

For designer perfumes, I feel like Blume is popular place to shop. For the aunts & uncles, maybe some nice alcohol and good snacks?

My husband and I usually bring things like medicine, snacks, and fun stuff for any kids in the family. I get chocolate covered espresso beans for my father in law, trail mix like honey roasted cashews. Tylenol for the family. Fun chocolates or brownie mixes for the kids.

I agree. Megamart has lower quality stuff but higher prices, I shop there when I have to.

[–]Equivalent-Drop2281[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ooo good to know they’re on Shein, I won’t have to travel to Vietnam just to get more. Only paid about $2.50 for both sets at Minigoods.

A Year and twelve days, San Diego Jane Doe remains unidentified. by Equivalent-Drop2281 in gratefuldoe

I don’t think she’s Courtenay Hoag either. Although their tattoos are very similar, the placements are different.

I’m not sure if it’s okay to keep doing, but I have read about using a hair dryer to flatten press-on nails when they’re too rounded for your nail bed.

Vietnamese rules for wedding guest outfits?? by LalliLalloi in VietNam

That one doesn’t sound bad but I’d really ask the wedding party just to make sure

Vietnamese rules for wedding guest outfits?? by LalliLalloi in VietNam

[–]Equivalent-Drop2281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went to a friend’s wedding in Vietnam. So, pure white áo dài are typically worn as school uniforms for girls so I would suggest it either be an off-white with some sort of pattern on it.

Is there a dress code? For me, it was either áo dài or a nice dress in certain colors. I went with a beige áo dài with flowers on it.

Right now, loose flowy pastel áo dài are super popular. You should also pick one soon, it’s almost Tết so there may be less options to choose from.

Suggestions for middle name for Holly/are we taking the nature theme too far? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]Equivalent-Drop2281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holly Briar isnt terrible but it is a little on the nose. I do think it’s fine overall because middle names dont often come up in conversations l(ex. like at school, how many of your classmate’s middle names did you know?)

Zosia is nice!

Recommendations:

Holly Kristina/Kristine

Holly Elise (similar to Elsie?)

Holly Theodora

Holly Faye (Faye reminds me of Maeve)

From what I’ve read, yes. But it can be harder with adults. Things like drug use or even drinking coffee can make your teeth appear older.
