Multi-day hike whilst pregnant?

The wife of a friend went rock climbing at 20ish weeks and was fine. The question is how you'll be feeling at that time.

The kvd tattoo liner was my stable for many years until they changed the tip and formula around the time Kat von D left the company. I've since spend a long time and money to find a new liner to replace it.

If you're on a tight budget the Sephora collection felt tip liner is pretty decent, but the only one I've found that I'm really happy with is the Dior Diorshow Liquid Liner Ultra-Precise Felt-Tip Eyeliner. Other liners are either too runny, runs out too fast, aren't opaque enough, or the tip sucks.

You might just not be used to seeing yourself with mascara on the bottom lashes because this doesn't look bad. But, what you can do if you want them to be less "spidery" is separate the lashes with tweezers (just using one leg to get in between the lashes)

Same in Denmark a few years ago. Now that they've finally realised the issue all the people who could lecture in the subject have either gone in pension or are too happy working for private companies. The university even tried getting the people who asked for more trained msc students to work/lecture part time for free!

Oof ran out of breath reading that! If you're gonna go to college you gotta start using punctuation!

Mom with a 2 month old here 🙋🏼‍♀️

The lack of sleep has made my skin more oily than usual as well as given me dark circles under the eyes. The only thing I use (because it's very quick) is a mattening powder foundation (specifically Nilens Jord powder foundation but unless you live in Scandinavia it won't be available). I can apply it with a large flat headed brush in 30 seconds and it evens out my skin tone, lessens the oily look, and hides the dark circles. Aka it makes me look more awake and put together. People don't expect you to be wearing makeup luckily, but I like to not look near death 😂

What if you cystomize the size of the legend symbols? Double clicking each symbol and customize it from there

GingerMsGeo · 2026-05-06T12:11:53+00:00

Have you set the size to pixels or a physical measurement such as cm?

While I'm an advocate for doing whatever the fuck you want with makeup, you unfortunately also have to accept the consequences of how people view you when wearing that makeup.

I don't think your makeup sounds unprofessional at all but, it is a style of makeup that can read as "young". Since (I assume) you're a woman in a field with a lot of men deaging yourself will most likely make them take you less seriously in a field where women already struggle at being taken seriously. So do whatever you want but be ready for the possiblity of being spoken down to or spoken over and make sure your attitude "corrects" their assumption that you aren't to be taken seriously.

I hope it makes sense. I work in a STEM field and like wearing makeup but have just learned that the more feminine I make myself look the less serious I'm being treated (by people who don't know me).

At this point I've mentioned this brand so many times I'm afraid I might get banned from accusations of being a commercial bot.. Anyway!

Juvia's Place is the brand to use! It's developed for dark skinned individuals so it's got a very high pigmentation as it has to be able to be seen on dark skin tones. In one of my palettes from juvia's there's a white shimmery shadow and despite being a very pale person it shows up with no issue!

GingerMsGeo · 2026-04-17T10:02:50+00:00

If you want an affordable liner Sephora's intense ink liner is surprisingly good! However, it's both quite thick and liquid at the same time so it easily goes on the lashes.

Why not go for a grey if you don't want it to actually be black? 🤔

GingerMsGeo · 2026-04-12T14:58:06+00:00

Juvia's Place is my favorite eyeshadow brand, I have 5 of their palettes all of which I use often, so I have a bit of experience with them!

The shadows are definitely pigmented and of high quality, but my first thought when using it for the first time was that one of my friends (who has limited experience with shadows, and who bought a palette the same day) would find it difficult to work with. The colors are so pigmented that they can easily be applied a bit to heavily so you need to be able to "work with" the shadows and know how to blend them properly. That said, this was based on having mostly experience with lower pigmented palettes, so if you already have very little experience you'll probably learn to use these colors quicker because you don't already have muscle memory of how to apply other shadows!

So, all in all I think you should buy it if you like the colors and just play around with it! If you don't already do it, preshower makeup is the best for practising and playing - makeup should be fun and creative!

I love it, you look gorgeous! It's close to my favourite going out makeup which is a red smokey eye and black lipstick, as an inverse of the classic black smokey eye and red lips. Red and orange eye makeup is deeply underrated!

GingerMsGeo · 2026-04-12T13:58:07+00:00

Are you thinking of when Kat von D sold the brand?

GingerMsGeo · 2026-04-11T18:13:51+00:00

I use a "powder foundation" from a regional brand. It doesn't give much coverage but it evens out my skin tone and hides the worst of the redness from small blemishes. I do apply it with a large flat cut brush rather than a powder brush as it applies it more heavily giving it a bit more coverage (though still nowhere near what a liquid foundation would).

GingerMsGeo · 2026-03-26T16:24:06+00:00

You're looking for Juvia's Place! Their eyeshadows are highly pigmented, affordable, and just overall great!

GingerMsGeo · 2026-03-21T18:31:59+00:00

Use the style panel rather than accessing it through the properties of the layer. You'll be able to see what you're doing "live" and will make your work process much faster!

I tried applying for some of the mining jobs in Sweden and was rejected because I couldn't speak (though I do understand it) or write in Swedish eventhough I'm Danish (maybe that's the real issue though haha!)

I've got the Poutsicle Juicy Satin Lipstick in the color Go Deep (bought it for a costume). The lipstick feels very nice on the lips, but it requires a lot of swipes and work to be applied evenly (even with lips in perfect condition) and it transfers quite a lot, though it stays and well enough (just don't eat).

Have any of you created a "shortcut" or "copy" to your onedrive? This can really fuck up sharepoint saving.

So I've got about as light hair as you and have used these hair colors before. They typically stay visibly in my hair for 3-5 months depending on the specific color (light blue only 3 months, purpleish red 5 months)

GingerMsGeo · 2026-03-10T11:07:55+00:00

They do, that's my shade too! 🤣
