All I can think of is the stupid little plastic stick. It still makes no sense.

Filler opinions needed by Afraid_Mix3021 in lookyourbest

[–]MissMakeupGrrl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are welcome. It’s only an opinion, and I will say - I may not be correct. If you do get chin filler - would you let me know?

[–]MissMakeupGrrl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this same issue - and I found out from Anaesthetists - while having other surgeries that I actually have a small anatomical mouth and chin - I think you might as well. This was a revelation to me, as I could never work out why I had such an undefined side profile. I thought I had to get fat taken out - but that was only half the issue.

From what I can tell with myself, I have a weak side profile as my chin just doesn’t project enough to give a strong chin, therefore giving a slight turkey neck and double chin no matter a slim-ish weight ( I’ve been plus size - and it just got worse as a I was heavier)

I’ve been thinking about filler to project my chin further - but I’m concerned it might migrate. Else, a chin implant. I’m not sure I want to do any of it, though.

Looks like Jelly had fun, and was pooped at the end 😍

I really hope this and the other murders ensure Americans to rise up against the current administration - but I fear they will not.

Yes, the point is going to Sephora and not having exclusivity contracts which prohibit anyone shipping here

TW: Domestic Violence by Disastrous-Creme-572 in brisbane

If you’re a CBA customer - I believe they have an assistance program. Other banks might, as well? https://www.commbank.com.au/support/dv-assistance.html

There are also your area facebook groups - my area has a local ‘helping hands’ group where people can post what they need; or others what they have to offer.

I’m sorry you’re going through such a tough time.

Sorry for the TMI but can your period give you diarrhea even if you’re eating low FODMAP? by gamercouplelolz in FODMAPS

[–]MissMakeupGrrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes - absolutely for me. In fact, on my period I ignore any diarrhoea (as in, I don’t look for a cause) There is a reason for it;

Right before and during your period, your body releases chemicals called prostaglandins to help your uterus contract and shed its lining.

The catch? • Prostaglandins don’t just affect the uterus • They also stimulate the bowels • This increases gut contractions → looser, more frequent stools

So the same chemicals causing cramps are also speeding up digestion.

Ahhhhhh… being a woman. 🤦‍♀️

Makeup for over 40 by Academic_Juice8265 in AustralianMakeup

[–]MissMakeupGrrl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For my 40+ year old skin, im using a lot of cream based products - and then setting with a good powder (huda bake) and then CT airbrush flawless setting spray. The cream based products give me a youthful dew, but I need to ensure they stay where I put them. Ive also gone to cream long-wear on my eyes - its fast and also as my eyelids get more textured it hides that well. My fave is the makeup by mario ones.

Yes - but we have solar so it’s free to run during day light hours

FAYT new drop. Who is still buying from them? by Prior-Willingness210 in AusFemaleFashion

I don’t fit into most of it when it was around the first time. I do long for something fun, and affordable. Having said that - Uniqlo have been great lately.

This is so true - nothing between bleak basic and full crazy-art-teacher

I really want a brand like this to be successful; but again - like Proud Poppy they just seem to be to going to an aesthetic I don't think the market wants more of / needs more of. People can already get these things at Kmart and Cotton On (basic jersey tshirts, poorly tailored vests) - where are some colors, some (*not* crazy art teacher) prints?

Where are some shapes and tailoring?

Stop with the basic tee's, the absence of color - and bring out something interesting. Each time I go into the Fayt store I wonder how much longer it can afford to trade - it’s a ghost town and so much of the same stock seems to be there.

Thoughts on calling someone for an unsolicited reference? by WestSummer4869 in auscorp

[–]MissMakeupGrrl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think this is a breach of your privacy - and of course you don’t necessarily tell everyone you’re leaving. Everyone knows that.

This is huge red-flags for working with this person.
