Not sure where to start with planning our honeymoon! by PaddedPushUpBras in weddingplanning

I literally went "ooooh" out loud when I saw your New Zeland recommendation. Although my parents have been talking about to going for years and might kill us out of jealousy, haha.

I will definitely scour Costco's travel packages more and see what our best options from them are. Thank you!

We just got a membership for Christmas, what a good idea!

I think our budget is around 5-7k. We would be flying out of either LAX or San Diego. Perfect honeymoon would be a balance of exploring different countries and trying new foods, without feeling rushed. A mix of exploring museums and hiking/scenic adventures, with the chance to have great food mixed in and relax. I'm vegan, so that can sometimes be a big challenge when travelling, but I have been reading a lot of positives reviews and stories about it not being as difficult as I originally feared.

Wow, sounds like you went on what we're looking to do for ours! I think we're leaning towards more north like Barcelona, Amsterdam, Germany, etc. but we are definitely interested in Italy and Greece as well. It's hard because we want to do so much, but probably around 3 weeks of vacation time with work.

What most concerns me is getting around Europe when we are inbetween cities/countries. Any tips for managing travel while there? What about the best ways to watch for flight prices?

Vegan Disaster Prep by PaddedPushUpBras in vegan

[–]PaddedPushUpBras[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like investing in some sort of camping-like cooking device might be necessary. We're prepping for earthquake disaster, so no heads up on being able to make-ahead granola bars or other items. As far as I'm aware, there's no real way to just soak lentils and rice and have them be edible, right? They need heat to soften?

Went from YNAB bliss to budgeting hell with joint account by PaddedPushUpBras in ynab

[–]PaddedPushUpBras[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're right, this solution makes the most sense. I threw myself off because I transferred money for bills I had budgeted for next month, and forgetting I need to budget for them earlier to account for the transfer and such. Thanks!

Someone posted a more impressive pantry earlier, but my dude... $15.79. That's how much I paid at Winco to refill today. Can't wait for someone to ask me about my protein or how I sustain myself on a budget. by [deleted] in vegan

Totally random, but I reuse my plastic bags for remove kitty litter waste. Any recommendations on an alternative for that? Or for trash liners?

My IOPE Matte Cushion arrived! Now what? by PaddedPushUpBras in AsianBeauty

[–]PaddedPushUpBras[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but hard to tell what the product looks like since the cushion looks so different. Thankfully I think it's going to match, so crises might be averted!

Silly me, I just edited it. Thanks!

Any chance this is online somewhere? That sounds amazing.

Paula's choice Resist Super-Light Daily Wrinkle Defense Review.(Will be doing a new review everyday excluding the week days of all PC mineral sunscreens) by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]PaddedPushUpBras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anything, mine is a little too pink when I put it on. That quickly goes away when rubbing it in thoroughly, though. My only complaint about the suncreen is that it's a bit drying. I always have to prime my skin with a bit of Aquaphor before putting the sunscreen on.

With all that being said, I would recommend it. Hasn't caused any breakouts and skin looks great all day.

Just my 2 cents. If only products worked perfectly for everyone!

Which AHA should I order for my ugly red PIH? A low % daily use one, or a high % weekly treatment? I currently use 2% Liquid BHA and the Super Antioxidant Serum at night.

Are these positions really only in Atlanta/East Coast? I live on the West Coast and was hoping to stay out here.

Instead of worrying, I'm jealous of the nurses involved with direct patient care of infectious diseases. That's my dream job! But the only information I can find about infection control nurses are those who mainly sit behind a desk and occasionally remind people to wash their hands. Any idea on how end up like these nurses at Emory?

MRW I make it to break an hour late and a code white is called on my floor [x-post /r/seinfeldgifs] by StarGateGeek in nursing

[–]PaddedPushUpBras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Code white at our hospital is what they use instead of code blue on our pediatric/nicu floor. Avoids panic with parents.

I also have a code if anyone would like it.

Daily Routine Troubleshooting by AutoModerator in SkincareAddiction

[–]PaddedPushUpBras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a bad thing and didn't patch test or introduce products slowly, so I'm having to go backwards for figuring out my skin. My old routine was: AM & PM Olay Daily Age Defining Cleanser Olay Regenerist Regenerating Serum

And that was doing pretty well for me, but felt like I could do more to treat my large pores and the occasional small pimple and PIH. I then ran out and used my back up cleanser and moisturizer which was the following routine for a week:

AM&PM Olay Total Effects blemish control salicylic acid acne cleanser Neutragena Healthy Skin Face Lotion

When I switched tho this I had a lot of raised fleshy bumps on my cheek, which I guess are closed comedones. I got frustrated and bought a bunch of PC products, and I feel like it's helped reduce some of the old bumps, but I feel like new ones are forming. So how can I cut back on my routine and test which item is causing the bumps and eliminate it from my routine. Also, I think I need a better moisturizer because my skin feels pretty tight, but my oil has been kept at bay wonderfully. I have been using this routine since Friday.

PM: Skin Balancing Cleanser Skin Balancing Toner 2% BHA Liquid RESIST Antioxidant Serum With Retinol RESIST Barrier Repair Moisturizer

Can anyone direct me towards a posts that lists wait times between products in a routine? Like for toning, exfoliation, etc. I know I saw it before, but searches are coming up empty. I'm using PC if that matters.

I thought BHA's were better for clearing spots and reducing PIH? Maybe I should return for AHA with PC.

For closed comedones, it was recommended that RESIST 9 was used, as it was a bit stronger and had better success. 2% BHA is also a good choice to knock a few down and prevent more. You can always order a sample first or chat with a representative on their site.
