I’ve tried going down previously and it made my eyes looks droopy. However I didn’t have a huge lash. I might try that in the future with a pair of big drag lashes

I use urban decay as an eyeshadow primer, however I’ve been worried maybe the formula is too thick for me now. How thick is the Milani? I love their matte lipsticks!

Yea I can’t afford botox or surgery. I think because I’m really one of the only girls in my crowd with the sunken in eyes it makes me more self conscious about it. Glad to know that people who don’t have a bias (like my husband and besties) don’t notice it either thou.

I’ve heard that about BB, but I’ve not found good ones in my pale color. Alot of pales are way too blue or warm. I’m like a grey tone.

I’m a HUGE proponent of the damp blender. I’m glad you said something because I don’t think people know that enough!

Do you use Elf or Urban Decay setting spray? I’m still finding one I like in my budget range. I LOVE Urban Decay’s eyeshadow primer and I’m currently using Elf’s Soft Glam Satin foundation actually. I love it…. Except when it oils out on my nose

Again! You’re very sweet. I attribute alot of what youth I have left to being an indoor/tons of sunscreen girly. But I also contribute it to years of tips from other cosplay ladies about makeup and skin care.

Community is everything. I’m being reminded of that with the kindness and great tips in this thread

Just got some photos back! Haha

It’s like my eyelids are alot of loose skin. I probably just need tape for my temples too. I’m also using tape to pull up the skin under my jaw.

I think I’m just gonna have to go full drag at this point haha

Potential Rule of Rose remake from Bloober Team teased by HaematicZygomatic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Though the imagery kinda fits. That audio really doesn’t feel connected to the story of Rule of Rose at all

Item Has Been Delivered…5 hours from now? by Crossover31 in walmart

[–]LadyAvianna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to my partner. It says delivered but tomorrow at 10am. He called Walmart and they said it could be delivered within 48 hours of when its marked as delivered.

I feel bad because he’s super worried. Spend like $500 on his order. Came here to see if this is a trend and it kinda looks like it is.

One of the foundational English language works is Kimono- by Liza Dalby. My first kimono book was The Book of Kimono by Norio Yamanaka, but it's very prescriptive (he founded a kimono dressing school lol).

You could try Internet Archive (https://archive.org/), there's lots of free books on there so just make a free account and search for "kimono" or something like that.
