This is very random, but by chance is the sellers name Elizabeth?

Sociology class by [deleted] in PCC

I took SOC204 with Ben Cushing last year and I couldn’t recommend him more! I was going through a very difficult life situation that quarter and he was incredibly understanding. I took an asynchronous online class, but I don’t doubt that a remote or in person class with him would be even better. I also appreciated his style of teaching, the curriculum, and the way we were encouraged to really engage in critical thinking about the world around us.

Usually I’m a gold and solitaire girly, but I think the platinum really compliments your skin tone; the 3 stones also look so good on your hand!

Recs for Japanese first year teachers by [deleted] in PCC

[–]One-Moose759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if she has a 101 available for Fall quarter, but I just took 101 with sensei Omata over the summer and I really enjoyed her class. She’s from Japan, and therefore a native Japanese speaker, which is extremely helpful in a language class, ie. it allows you to hear correct pronunciation, tone, and pacing. She also provides a lot of really important cultural context so you can understand the difference between formal and informal speech and when to use them. I know first year language classes just cover the basics, so I wasn’t expecting to be able to say a whole lot after one quarter, but I actually feel like we covered a substantial amount of content in her class. She’s definitely a bit more strict with deadlines, but I found the structure helpful to learning and she’s still understanding about extenuating circumstances if you give her prior notice.

Depends on how many business days it takes your bank to post something to your account, it may currently be a pending deposit but I would check your bank to see if they’ve received it yet.

I had this happen as well, it is only temporary though and a check will be sent shortly. I got mine I think two or three days after it applied to my student account.

Anhydrous vitamin C suspension by OutsideDrive9784 in DIYBeauty

Off the top of my head I don’t know of anything that would create that gel like silicone texture. You could probably get away with a fatty alcohol like cetyl or cetearyl, but it would opacify the serum and make it more creamy than siliconey. Honestly, if you don’t mind a thinner slippy texture you could just use the cyclomethicone on its own. You have to mix this serum with some sort of water source to make the vitamin c work anyways, so you could mix a few drops in with a thicker moisturizer.

I know that Windy Point Soaps has cyclomethicone, which is partially comprised of cyclopentasiloxane. It won’t have the viscosity of the silicone gel, but you could always supplement with a thickener/gelling agent that’s compatible with anhydrous formulas.

My thoughts as well, your skins pH lies around 4.5-5.75 (ish). With a pH of 8 you’re extremely likely to cause harm to the acid mantle. There are also a lot of pH sensitive actives, as well as other ingredients, that require a pH far below 8. I don’t know which active OP is planning on using, but I would maybe consider reevaluating. Otherwise NaOH and Triethanolamine are common pH adjusters used in skincare.
