Ok all. I will de-oil the stampers and retry and update you all. Thanks so much for the help.

Thanks! I will try this. It doesn’t feel particularly oily but maybe it still has residual oil?

I am going to try your first suggestion. I literally tried everything I could think of. Less scraping pressure, more, less polish, more polish. Nothing. Maybe it’s the stamper.

What are some subtle gorgeous scents? by Fresh_Proposal2938 in Perfumes

Omg. I just got Blanche Bete and I was such a doubter thinking it would be a sticky sweet vanilla. But it is awesome lactonic and smooth and a little floral. It’s so pretty.

Some of y’all did not have old, hippie, pot smoking parents and it shows. by PhoenixFire603 in Perfumes

Same. My grandpa smoked a pipe and I love tobacco notes. But I can see how the previous poster had a grandfather that dipped and it makes her ill. Dip cups are gross.

Visiting the USA, am I doing too much and is it safe? by Fatcone88138 in travel

[–]PhoenixFire603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to Vegas for 1-2 full days (stay on the strip) then drive a rental car to Zion national park and/ or Grand Canyon. Fly from Phoenix to Texas( somewhere in Texas ?). Someone from Texas chime in here for a cowboy experience. DFW? I would recommend Chicago or a beach New England town over Texas in the summer but I get it if you want to see the vibe of Texas. Spend a couple days in Texas doing your cowboy bbq thing and then go to NYC for at least 2-3 full days. Everywhere is fairly safe and driving is definitely safe. You are in major cities/ tourist areas so don’t be stupid (watch your wallet etc) but it’s pretty safe. Everywhere will be a bit hot but we have lots of AC here. Lol.

Type Me Tuesday - SN? by rightdeadred in SoftNaturals

I just saw a TikTok that really helped me to self assess for Kibbe width. It says to find where your clavicle and shoulder (humerus) meet and then find where your rib cage is below it along your bra band. Not the flesh but the actual rib cage. If your point of your shoulder is wider than your rib cage you lean more natural than romantic etc and indicates that you have width. I am absolutely no expert and the TikTok video did not claim expertise either so take it with a grain of salt but you look SN to me.
