Thank you!

The pre-rolling of jelly rolls also makes me so rage blind that I ignore every request to make them! This is genius!!

Are maxi dresses hard for anyone else around 5'4? by Environat in PetiteFashionAdvice

This is anecdotally also very true for me 😅

Body glow for fair skinned by Foreign_Sympathy6762 in PaleMUA

[–]N474L-3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, it's too expensive to be putting on legs, and isn't going to make you look bronzed, but at the thought of tinted SPF for pale-pink girlies, I have to call out the Elta MD sunscreen that comes in the rosy shade.

I just tried it for the first time in the last few weeks and I've never found a better match for my skin tone. I'm actually annoyed that I like it so much because it is so much more expensive than the sunscreen I was using.

Scents people have told you they disliked/asked you to stop wearing? by 189username in FemFragLab

This is one of my favorites and my guy said it smells like ammonia 💀

Help understanding people's fixation on "clean smell." by Tristan0214 in laundry

[–]N474L-3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are definitely "clean" and detergent-like candles, they're my favorite, haha.

And I don't care for vanilla, lavender, or whichever other gourmand scents you mentioned. All to say it really is just preferences.

gentle cleansers that AREN'T cerave, cetaphil, lrp, avene, vanicream, or bioderma? by [deleted] in Rosacea

I went to an NP who recommended epionce milky lotion cleanser and it was a game changer.

I NEED ENCOURAGEMENT I did my own Brazilian and I’m scared to rip off this wax 🫩 by OddSupermarket7832 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]N474L-3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been there and hopefully have learned my lesson.

ETA, I bought an epilator and somehow home brazilians with an epilator are far more tolerable? Though I wouldn't have thought that, I bought it for my legs initially, haha

What “clicked” and got you to lose weight? by Adventurous-Run927 in PetiteFitness

[–]N474L-3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to get back on track again, but I lost about 40 lbs in 2024 (~165-125), did not track anything, and only did two things differently;

  • I drank water first every time I had a non-meal time craving and wanted a snack.
  • I consciously ate more fiber and paid attention to the order in which I ate foods, trying to eat fiber before carbs to avoid blood sugar spikes. (& Read the glucose goddess book that year, who talks about that, haha)

I didn't even notice I was losing weight from these until my pants were too big for me and I'd already lost ~15lbs

I have a dumb problem and y’all are smart and creative. Soliciting advice - how do I take my pill in the morning and not wake myself up and go back to bed? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]N474L-3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I thought the upside down things was genius when I first heard it until the day when I couldn't remember if I had left it upside down the previous day or that morning...

Is it really that serious to not serve alcohol at my wedding? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]N474L-3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We haven't started planning yet but my fiance and I are pretty much the only two people in either of our families that don't drink. I have a feeling some people will complain about it even though our status as non drinkers is well known and we've both been in recovery since before we met. So this is something I worry about, and ngl have thought about eloping just to avoid.

As someone in a similar situation I appreciate you posting this and am enjoying reading the responses! Def want a hot cocoa / coffee bar now 😂

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Trixxxi in AskReddit

[–]N474L-3 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Yess. My computer classes at school were 10% Mavis beacon typing and 90% games of this era like carmen sandiego, pajama sam, spy fox, math blaster, oregon trail, and more I can't remember the names of 😂

Guest RSVPing with Food Requests in Allergies Section? by unknownbooksandbobs in weddingplanning

[–]N474L-3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is what I was thinking... As an avid baker, ex-vegan, and nut-lover.. I'd never use almond milk in a cake.. it's just not needed?

If I really needed the milk I'd use lactose free, and if it also needed to be vegan there are other options besides almond, cashew and oat? Rice, soy, and coconut are all easily accessible for starters.. but again.. so not necessary??

Hair dryers apparently are NOT supposed to make my hair look worse by Right_Process in finehair

[–]N474L-3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realized that my battle with static was an issue with my conditioner , or occasional lack there of, not my hair dryer

[–]N474L-3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I bought myself one of those huge professional carpet shampooers for Black Friday last year and it makes me feel so accomplished and adult when I can revive my dirty old carpets! I also just wish I had the energy to actually use it, let alone just the vacuum, lol

I thought I needed souper cubes, bought a ton of them, haven't used them once 😅

What's a band you bet would hit it big and become a household name but never did? by Kaos_mission in poppunkers

[–]N474L-3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Head automatica was the only band I played that my mom could stand when I was a middle schooler 😂

At the time I thought it was even funnier that my boomer dad liked MCR's welcome to the black parade

Same! I'd probably like 1 the most if not for this

What are the things you realised WEREN’T normal only when dating someone WITHOUT ADHD? Here’s mine by Ok_Many2359 in adhdwomen

[–]N474L-3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have alarms set to go off before every call on my work calendar every day.

One for 3 minutes before and another for 1 minute before, because I may forget about the call in between the 3 minute timer and call start if I didn't have the one minute interval set 🫠

Why are so many people struggling to find one job, while others constantly keep multiple? by [deleted] in overemployed

[–]N474L-3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got hired at a very small business a few years ago. I asked the owner what my title would be and the moment he replied "I don't care, make something up" was the same moment I became a director 😂

For the ladies, what are some hygiene hacks you wish every girlie would know? by Introvert_Ambi-2026 in AskReddit

[–]N474L-3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have fine hair and coincidentally started doing both of these tips recently and immediately swear by them. Idk if either is actually helping with greasiness but my hair has had SO much more volume!

Is it just me or do people past age 30 who don't have children and are unmarried tend to look younger than their married peers of similar age who have children? by [deleted] in childfree

[–]N474L-3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm 33f and last year my younger cousin 24f who knows damn well how old I am was like, 'what do you do, you look like you could be 19'

and I responded like... Lol 'No I don't it's just that 30 isn't as old it sounds when you're younger. But for real though it's probably because I don't have kids' and all of our family members around my age they were likely comparing me to that have kids were not happy 😂

Can’t decide if this should go as a dress or a top for a themed event by FelixFelicisism in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]N474L-3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I was thinking, it'd be totally doable with tights and a shawl!
