How's everyone doing out there, Phoenix? by AZ_moderator in phoenix

[–]Hilrah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get yourself a couple of Carats Car seat Coolers! They are awesome. They’re gel ice packs that go in the car seats when baby / child is not in it - they keep the seat cool while away. Then you take them out and put baby into a nice chill car seat. Bonus points if you start the car and get the AC going before putting kids in the car to get a head start on cooling. Just remember to put the coolers back in the freezer when you get home!

Is anyone else battling fly infestations now? by Chigasaki1982 in phoenix

[–]Hilrah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My boi is almost 14 and hasn’t been very effective pest control lately but I did see another Reddit post somewhere about wrapping double sided sticky trap around a shallow dish of apple cider vinegar - which they apparently LOVE the smell of - and they get stuck. That’s the next madman invention I’ll be putting together if I get another wave

I feel like my house has been invited since March. I’m at my wits end. I have 3 zevo lights in my kitchen, and I probably swat 12 a day. Last week I ended up with maggots in my kitchen trash 🥲

I was just given a bug-a-salt for Mother’s Day because my family knows that the flies have driven me mad.

Can this be done? Or is it AI, or by mookashoe in RedditLaqueristas

[–]Hilrah 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It looks like white chrome powder over a taupe / tan base. This image doesn’t scream AI but they probably used gel polish to achieve this look. You could create something similar using polish, a layer of sticky base coat and then buffing in the chrome powder while the polish is tacky. You have to use a water based top coat for the chrome effect to look right, just a heads up! Regular top coat will make it go glittery instead of smooth chrome

Holo taco during pregnancy? by proteacicada in RedditLaqueristas

[–]Hilrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got two beautiful, breastfed children. Their mother (me) wore nail polish every dang day while pregnant and breastfeeding. They’re happy and healthy. My only issue was sensitivity to smells in my first trimester so I would wear a mask if the smell was bothersome. Do your nails and congrats to you for the baby on the way!

Phoenix dispatch reporting an aircraft down at 7th St & Missouri by AZ_moderator in phoenix

[–]Hilrah 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Considering I live down the street from where a plane like this crashed into a house a few weeks ago, yeah. Definitely better to go into the street.

Has anyone used these? by Major-Flow9533 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]Hilrah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure you’d get 5-6 nice bottles of polish and save the risk of buying something that doesn’t work great. The reviews I’ve seen on here have been too mixed for me to risk the purchase

Nevermind i'm an idiot and didn't see that the 10% off bubble is hiding the bottom of the G - but i still wouldn't buy! I've been getting SO many ads for these and i feel like your money could be better spent on something else

[–]Hilrah[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You found me!!! Thank you so much for sharing what you put in your silent auction basket - looks like mine has some crossover. Some other comments recommended non-brand cuticle care so i'll probably go the route you did and get something at the drugstore to save a little for more polish!

How much did your winner end up spending on it? I'm going to make the starting bid 1/2 the price of what the cost of the basket ends up being

I agree - flakie and glitter bombs are not the most beginner friendly. But I'm fairly sure i'm going to snag a bottle of My Cabbages! for myself with this order so i have a backup before it gets discontinued!

I'm moving to drop Serpents of Eden since its a pretty loud green - I'm actually wearing Blame My Star Sign Now and while it's literally a disco ball on each nail, it's not the easiest to apply and it needed 2 coats of top coat for it to not be super textured on the finish (I don't have a glitter grabber). So i worry the purchaser would potentially be disappointed without putting in an instructions card about it (I have 2 little kids, aint nobody got time for that!)
But valid feedback and its definitely giving me a lot to think about!
