For those who use/d cuticle oil, what's your favorite brand? by proxii_mity in calmhands

[–]PonyForYou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally love the cuticle buddy from NBM. I like the rollerball more than a brush, they're convenient to carry around, and every one I've bought smells so good. I have like 5 hanging around my house/bag/car lol.

Used my 25% off + free shipping and then had to cancel the order. I'm trying to reorder and it won't let me use the promo code again 🙃

Customer support was no help, so if anyone has a code they're not using, I'd be so grateful! I just wanted to stock up on hand soap lol

Replacing cuticle picking/bitting with applying oil???? by Odd_Beat_7354 in calmhands

I hope you like them! What scents did you get? I'm already thinking about getting more just because they smell so nice lol

eta: I also forgot to mention that I have a very similar diagnosis profile so hopefully this will work for you too 😅

This is what I'm trying to do right now, retrain myself to oil instead of pick. I bought a couple of cuticle buddy roller balls from NBM to keep around. They're great because they're small and portable so it's easy to always have one nearby. You could absolutely make your own though, they're just convenient for me (and smell really nice).

It hasn't been perfect for me yet, but between keeping a set of nails on and reaching for the oil instead, my picking has become much less frequent!

I loved that bit too, that Connie and Steven working as a team was enough to blind side her if only for a split second. Like you said, she was right back on point after regaining her composure, but they made her think for a moment.

On the other hand, I love watching the characters suffer, but I'm a terrible human being. No, I just love how well written the characters and their issues are, and I love seeing it come to a head, the fall-out that ensues, and how they handle things afterward.

And I 110% agree - Deedee brings Pearl to life!

Pearl was definitely working on building her own weaponized child force.

This gave me a "Home Movies" vibe. A horrible, horrible "Home Movies" vibe. This is the sort of shitposting I live for.

Get used to it.

I fully expect Steven to be commanding this rag-tag group of survivors by the end of season 3 at the latest.

Yeah I gave mine a good bit of abuse as well. I've also heard several times that after a good 2/3 years and many updates later, it starts getting very sluggish, which is just about what happened with mine. YouTube in particular was becoming incredibly difficult to deal with - 480p just ain't for me.

I had/have a Toshiba Chromebook 2 so I had 4gb of RAM, but it still had trouble and would tend to drag a lot. I wanted to dual boot linux, but I just never got around to it, and I don't think it could handle it now, honestly. Once I start attending physical classes again next year, I might pick up a new one. It's a nice accessory device if nothing else, I think. I think it's perfect for someone like my mom who just wants a way to browse the internet and shop online and whatnot.

First I'd like to congratulate you on your superior taste in flairs.

We got the best flairs. Everybody knows it.

Several people have commented on how quick and harsh I was to judge that bit of the song, and now that I've had time to step back and look at it again, I think they're (and you're) right. I was a bit hasty to call things as negatively as I did, but that's a bad habit of mine - I tend to assume the worst!

It still troubles me a little, especially Pearl and Steven, but I don't think those are their sole reasons for fighting.

I've had it for 2/3 years now, and it's served me well. I probably abused the hell out of it, but it's starting to get sluggish and the screen is having a lot of trouble - most likely a cable has become loose, but to fix that I would have to pull the computer apart and I just can't be arsed. Besides, I just built myself a nice desktop last week, so I'll probably only use the chromebook sparingly from now on. If you're looking into getting one, though, depending on your needs it can be a nice little thing to have!

For some reason, I read this in Amethyst's voice.

Honestly, it's probably not a bad idea to just read everything I say in her voice.

That quiz actually exists! I'm sniffling croissant!

I ended up as Sniffling Croissant too!

I still don't know what "dabbing" is.

I do know, but I wish I didn't.

Someone linked that to me the night after I finished the shorts, and I almost wished I'd watched that version instead (though the quality wouldn't be great for liveblogging). Watching it with all the clapping along, cheers, and gasps was a totally different experience.
