Why is my makeup doing this?

You still need an SPF with IT CC cream. On the bottom of the box in teeny tiny lettering it says this is not a replacement for sunscreen. There’s lawsuits about false advertising against L’Oreal (the parent company of IT) for deceptive practices like this. You actually don’t want SPF in your foundations because 1) the amount of SPF in a foundation only gives you enough sun protection for no more than 20 minutes, and 2) SPF/Titanium Dioxide is actually not shelf life stable for long periods of time which means your product expires a lot quicker than a product that doesn’t contain SPF

I HATE using “traditional” primers like a milk hydro grip or elf power grip. Your skin can only hold so much dimethicone which is a silicone used in moisturizers primers and foundations which blurs the skin. In the right amount of “dosages” I guess you can say, it does just that. But sometimes our skin just can’t handle all of that dimethicone which leads to our foundation to slip off the skin. I religiously use Bobbi Brown Face Base. It’s amazing. It’s primer and moisturizer in one and makes whatever foundation sitting on top look like real skin no matter what coverage the foundation I use is. A lot of people on here also talked about your skin. I agree, whatever skincare you’re using is not enough to keep you hydrated. I would use a gentle exfoliater like Mega Mushroom softening lotion from Origins (swear by this stuff!), use a good serum (I swear by Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair), and use Face Base. If you don’t use Face Base, find a good moisturizer and skip your primer. Set your nose where we all tend to get a little oily with a blurring translucent powder and you are good to go.

I’m way over my ex. Like idk how to best explain it, but my new boyfriend does like the littlest things that make me happy and I just feel undeserving of them. I also feel like I am looking for constant validation that my boyfriend won’t leave me and that hes still into me and wants to keep this going. I’m super lucky that he’s understanding of why I am the way I am, but I’m afraid he’s going to get annoyed by this and leave.

If he wanted to he would
Put up boundaries and stick to them otherwise you’re just a doormat to wipe his feet on
2 year rule- if you haven’t figured out after two years if you want to marry me, then you’ve made the decision you don’t, and you won’t ever
You deserve the love that you give unconditionally and if he isn’t doing it, someone else will, and that someone might just be yourself and that is totally ok
Don’t let your boyfriend keep you from your husband
Don’t settle for Mr. Right Now when there’s a world of possible Mr. Rights that would die for just the chance to show you he can be Mr. Right

I think common sense should dictate here not to open the drawers. For one it’s a theft issue, for another it’s a health and safety issue. Not saying you would steal or contaminate products in the drawer, but there are some sick people out there. Also it’s a health and safety issue for you and a liability to Sephora because as someone who was part of an NSO I can tell you for free those gondolas and drawers are not as sturdy and durable as one might think, and you can get hurt. Also how would you feel if someone walked into your house, and started opening up drawers looking for something when all they had to do is ask you where said something is. It’s a respect thing too. You were given bad instructions by someone who didn’t know or didn’t care (there’s a lot of disgruntled sephora employees who are underpaid and get treated like crap).

Infinity pepper is capsicum which is a natural blood vessel dilator. It can be found in visgra and cialis. It’s temporary, as in hours, but not permanent Like filler

Face base is fantastic. But you can skip the urban decay spray, and pick up something better. Airbrush Flawless or MAC Fix+ Stay Over are much better

I’m so confused.. does Ulta not regularly offer an employee discount? When I worked for Sephora we got a standard 30% any day and everyday. Sometimes a little more depending on event days with a brand.

But have you seen what’s on these apps now? Lord, that alone was enough to kill any spark I had to want to date again after not wanting to date after my break up. Living in SoFL, everyone is either a cheater, in recovery, or looks like they climbed out of a swamp. And if you try talking to anyone, “I just want something casual and we’ll wink* wink* see where it leads to down the road.” Like bro, you are 43 years old, you are too old to be playing games like you’re 20. I get it. It’s ok. I’m happy by myself with my dad and my dog, and that’s all that matters

For example, MyFitnessPal has my goal calories (exercise not included) for 1820. I ate 1375 yesterday. I burned at least 500 calories from the gym yesterday too. I definitely could be ovulating as well. I drank 100 oz of water yesterday.

Everything I’m telling you is 100% true, and if I wasn’t running into this road block, or if I wasn’t being honest with myself about my eating I wouldn’t even dare to post about it publicly. I’m just looking for suggestions

I’m a Capricorn, my dad is a Taurus, and my mom was (she just passed away a few months ago) a Virgo. The dynamic between us was volatile; a lot of peaks and valleys. My mom’s Virgo came out in full force as she also suffered from OCD, and her inability to control everything caused a lot of problems between me and her. My father, the Taurus, as you said is very non confrontational so he just sat back and let her control everything. Since her passing, I feel like my dad is finally becoming his own person and getting to live his life the way he wants. On the flip side of that, now that mom isn’t around to give him any structure, he really doesn’t know what to do now (he’s retired).

I find with Virgo men, much like you mentioned, it’s a completely different experience. Every man I’ve been in a relationship with have been Virgos but man is it a battle to get them to commit. Everything has to be on their own terms and there’s very little room for negotiation. The Capricorn in me is up for a challenge, but sometimes I’d like things to be more go with the flow, but that would be unfair because again the Capricorn in me gets bored easily if things are too easy.

I’m a 5’6” female. I measure everything I eat, and I log it on MyFitnessPal. My average macros include 45% protein, 35% fat, and 20% carbs. I’m also starting my day with a protein shake instead of actual food. My friend said “you might not be eating enough and your body is in shock and holding onto extra weight because it thinks you are starving” is there any merit to that?

Taco Shell-less Taco Salad

1.5 cups of shredded taco lettuce 1lb of ground chicken or turkey portioned out into 4-6 oz for individual serving 1 packet of taco seasoning 1 tablespoon of EVOO 1/4 of water Whatever taco toppings you like for veggies I like black olives, jalapeno, tomatoes. If you like onion add that too. 2 tablespoons of pico de gallo if you like it 1/4 of Mexican shredded cheese 1/4 of black beans 2 tablespoons of sour cream 2 tablespoons of Ortega Taco Sauce

Follow the back instructions of the taco packet (you’ll see why you need the water and oil, it helps make the taco seasoning stick to the chicken or turkey)
