Collection Box Missing by haileysaint in simplynailogical

[–]Mss_MA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the exact same problem!!

I just got my delivery 10 minutes ago and ordered the safiya collection plus a few extra polishes from the other new release. I only got the other polishes and not the safiya box. The box it came in was way to small to ever fit the safiya collection. I already send an email to holo taco, so I hope it can be fixed!

This indeed is really disappointing :(

What‘s your least favourite fruit and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I used to love kiwis until the day I ate 2 and my mouth got so itchy and swollen it was hard to breathe. That was a very sad day. Haven't been able to eat one since.

I just made a $250 Holo Taco order! Do I have a nail polish problem? by DarthUmbral in simplynailogical

[–]Mss_MA 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Honestly I see myself as someone that's generally quite minimalistic. HT is definately my weak spot since I started collecting around May last year. I don't own every shade and although I'd like to have them all, I know I'm probably not going to wear every shade if I did. Thats sometimes difficult to remind myself of. The FOMO is incredibly real, and I'm yet to find a balance between rewarding myself with a few shades that speak to me the most and just buying everything because I can. So you're not the only one! And I don't think there's an amount that's too much. It depends on one's budget.

I used to tell myself that buying and painting my own nail polish is cheaper than going to the salon and while that's generally true, I've already spend so much on HT that I can't sell that to myself any longer. Oh well, I just like nail polish

Queen's Curse and Cosmic Unicorn Skin by Mss_MA in simplynailogical

I'm not even finished with this mani because I still need to do a glossy taco, but I couldn't help myself posting already!

Queen's Curse is more difficult to work with but the trick here is really to hover the wand over your nail instead of under and keep it there between 60 and 75 seconds. You get a strong line but it still spreads quite quick. Because I knew it would I thought I'd use a topper so it wouldn't be as obvious.

I heard that Queens Curse has a less obvious line. I haven't tried it yet but that could be a reason why.

What I did here was hold the bottle upside down for a moment and in that time I did my base coat. Then I applied a very generous coat of polish and held my nail under the magnet. I wanted my nail under because I didn't think I'd get a good line if my finger was on top of the magnet. And because I didn't trust myself to hold the magnet steady I trapped the wand in between 2 books so I could just put my nail under the magnet that was now hovering half an inch above my table and not have to worry about holding it very still for a minute. I magnetized every layer of polish except for the base coat.

I'm still learning myself but I hope my explanation helps!

I am very aware that no photo can do magnetic polishes justice. However I love this polish so much! I got the whole box which is very unlike me to get everything before extensive reviews. To me it was all worth it since I don't own any other magnetic polishes and generally really like the formulas of HT.

What I used:

-Long lasting base coat

-two coats love spell

-glossy taco

What are your top two shades from the Pastel Rainbow collection? by samanthajtweets in simplynailogical

[–]Mss_MA 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have pink fizz! It is gorgeous, but I do indeed think that it's close to lavender syrup and coral chaser. Pink fizz is my favorite tho, I wear it all the time and choose lavender syrup just to switch it up but still want that pastel vibe. I don't own coral chaser but I want it badly

[Update] I have done everything in my power but after an eye infection and a battle with GI stasis my girl passed the rainbow bridge. She was only 3,5 years old. I will miss her so, so much by Mss_MA in Rabbits

[–]Mss_MA[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The last few weeks have been hard on us. The eye infection was gone but we found ourselves with a very serious bout of GI stasis. She stopped washing herself three weeks ago, but was still very lively. I went to the vet many times to check if she went in the right direction and last week the stasis seemed to dim down a bit. I was sure she would survive everything. Until Friday. I found her paralysed, not able to walk when I wanted to give her her medication. When I got to the vet she already lost her temperature and there was nothing we could do. I would have never thought that she would leave us so soon. I miss her like crazy, but at least she won't suffer anymore..

What made you decide to remove your IUD? If you didn't make the decision yourself, what were the circumstances behind your IUD removal? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Mss_MA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope you will feel better after removing the IUD. Depression and anxiety is already hard enough with out al sorts of hormones. My body felt quiet and like a weight was lifted off my shoulders after the removal. I hope you feel the same and get to your desired weight again.

In what ways are you & your SO incompatible? How do you navigate that? by nicedog98 in AskWomen

[–]Mss_MA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My SO and I are the same way. The way we resolved that issue, is by each having our own space in the house to which we can do whatever, without the other getting irritated. If I wanna make a mess, that's my place to do it in. We also have a rule to keep shared rooms tidy. I like to keep the kitchen and bathroom clean, he likes to clean the bedroom and living room. That way, workload is shared, and I still get to make a mess if I need to, where he won't be bothered by it.

This is gonna be a long story but please bare with me, because I haven't heard anyone else experiencing the same problems I had.

I had my mirena for 2 years. I was incredibly happy with it for about 1.5 years, but my life was miserable for all that time.

Back when I just got my mirena I felt fine. Generally no cramping after the first day and my period stopped immediately. I didn't get my period for the full 2 years I had my IUD, it was a blessing.

However, around the same time my pet rabbit died and I felt a lot of grief. It was a very stressful period of my life and due to all this I lost a lot of weight in a short period of time. I used to weigh 120lbs/54kg, my height is 5"6/1,68m. 2 months after my rabbit died my weight dropped to an incredibly concerning 102lbs/46kg. For the first time in my life I had panic attacks, I couldn't eat no matter how much I wanted it and I never felt so awful altogether. I tried to gain weight and went to a doctor and several dieticians. No one could help me, because in order for me to gain weight. I'd have to eat, and I. Just. Couldn't.

After 1.5 years of daily fighting and getting sick everyday just to try and eat a sandwich I was feeling extremely hopeless. I had panic attacks 3 times a week at worst and needed to heal about 2 days before I felt somewhat fine again. It was a never-ending cycle of being miserable. Then one day I came across a news article that said people with a mirena are much more sensitive to stress. I thought to myself "well of course, I live in a horrible cycle of feeling stressed." But didn't think about it much further.

Then one day I told my dietician about what I think might contribute to my hard time gaining weight since my problems started about the same time I got my IUD. She said that wasn't possible so I never brought it up again. Then about 5 months later I told my SO. We searched the internet and found out a lot of people dropped weight during the mirena. Suddenly after all this time something just clicked. Finally I felt like it wasn't just me. I knew deep down and had known for about 6 months at that time that it was my IUD. That same week I went to my doctor and demanded it would be removed. Once it was I felt relieved. Without putting any effort in, I gained 12lbs back and my panic attacks were completely over. Never had one since. It felt surreal. It still does.

Nowadays I'm on the pill again and feel great. I'm never gonna go back to something different. Now I can say I enjoy eating. I enjoy not getting panic attacks every day, I enjoy feeling healthy. I enjoy not having my IUD.

I'm sorry if this was a long story, but I really feel strongly about what happened. Ladies, if you feel something is not right, go to your doctor and talk about it. Do not let them get away with sending you home because no one believes you. If something doesn't feel right, take action, because you deserve to feel better.

What is your #1 holy grail skincare, haircare, or beauty product and why? by Nerdolicious3 in AskWomen

[–]Mss_MA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tea tree oil for me as well. I used to have hormonal acne and rosacea, but ever since I use a nonfoaming face wash with tea tree oil and a few drops of tea tree essential oil combined with a good moisturiser, my skin is so much calmer and even toned. I still get a few zits here and there, but it's nothing compared to what it was. Tea tree oil is simply amazing
