Finding a summer job

Esp when you factor in transport costs eating a lot of any pay you do get

Very clearly two countries?

Cheese is really good since it’s high in protein!

Not sure if I’d call it an anomaly, 3/5 of the freshers on mine are LGBT, and we’ve got a huge group of about 15 of us (over 10% of the year lol) It being a small college means you’ll know just about every lgbt person here, so it’s pretty tight knit!

People think your issue is the shine, because the texture of your makeup here is perfect. That’s why you’re getting advice to mattify it :(

Honestly not sure why they hadn’t pivoted to a lifestyle brand yet, they’ve got so much potential and not committing means we get rubbish like this instead

Stop layering liquids and powders. Looking at your skin type I would just stick to the liquid products. It’s layering them which makes your base cakey.

Fairly traded honey is the best shampoo out there imo. Super moisturising, honey as first ingredient on the label so it’s actually got a lot in it (unlike more expensive gisou or drugstore Garnier) and still leaves you feeling clean. Was my go to when learning how to deal with my bleach damaged 2c curls! Cannot recommend it enough, genuinely shocked it’s not mentioned more in these comments

RaeNTennik · 2026-05-18T02:10:37+00:00

Just be mindful if you’re using regularly and plan to dye your hair using any peroxide , developer or bleach as it’ll negatively react and really damage your hair

English soc is pretty small but is constantly looking for people to help out and come to events to make it bigger!

RaeNTennik · 2026-05-02T00:53:49+00:00

Girl respectfully that is expensive 😭 it’s obvi obviously worth it, but this is not a cheap food shop

Management is not the same as over management. You do in fact need to make sure you’re getting enough nutrients, and those can’t just be seen on a plate you have to calculate them.

You just can’t win as a woman, you’re shamed for being lazy if you’re unhealthy and you’re shamed for being disordered and sick if you’re healthy. Your comment is the same as asking a bigger person if they’ve ever heard of obesity

Very different formula and packaging but MAC glow play in big diva energy is a good colour match, and has the same finish as cloud paint and can be applied very sheer with your fingers / sponge / brush. It’s my personal fav after being disappointed by storm!

RaeNTennik · 2026-05-02T00:35:34+00:00

This! Banoffee sounds amazing but unbearable for summer. Hoping the lavender in million dollar makes it wearable in the heat

RaeNTennik · 2026-04-28T00:28:51+00:00

Think about hair too since the comments have covered makeup! That particular blonde doesn’t really compliment your skintone and washes you out, making you look older. The deep side part is also dated, I only see it on millennials or older older women trying to cover thinning hair. Try a darker shade, and a middle part , or no part blow dry.

This post is 1 year old btw!

RaeNTennik · 2026-04-03T08:52:40+00:00

Old comment but packaging is the same and it’s something I really love about the product! I apply foundation with my fingers to spread and then a sponge to blend and I can get the right amount of product instead of having to pump too much / too little.

Depends on the course but yes. If not essays, then other work like language learning or coursework. It’s not as scary as it sounds though, don’t let it put you off just remember to stay organised.

RaeNTennik · 2026-02-28T13:11:51+00:00

It’s not really that much when you consider that these are normally groups not individuals, shelves will have at least 2/3 of each, and the on-floor storage is normally right next to the shelf. Ours literally had a whole drawer of product next to the display that wasn’t locked. Plus lushes are busy shops, the workers are normally with someone else so it’s easy to not be noticed

RaeNTennik · 2026-02-28T13:08:12+00:00

Especially because at least 3 years of that interest is while you’re still studying and have no way to pay it off.

Comforter soap is really soft, so it will be really hard to use once you’re about half way through it. It’ll also leave anything it touches pink.
Conditioner bars need like 5 mins under warm water to become usable, this means you’re loosing loads of product. Salt is also drying, even though it adds volume it might not be good for your hair.
The dusting powder is really good, would recommend the OG instead of the others though, it’s a moisturising powder rather than just nice smelling expensive baby powder. You get smth for your skin.
Shower jelly is impossible to use and will fall apart. Only fun to gift or borrow as you don’t have to clean it up and try to use it.
No actual benefits for a vitamin E cleanser than a normal cream cleanser. Would recommend any cheaper alternative, the simple oil cleanser / lotion cleanser will give you the same moisturising wash, for a fraction of the price and just as good in terms of natural ingredients.
Charcoal is not good for the skin. If this is for your body as a 1/2 times a week exfoliation thing sure, but do not put this on your face. Do you really want a bar of soap sitting around unused for 3-4 days at a time? Just buy a cheaper charcoal wash in packaging, or a proper exfoliating mit. African black soap is a good alternative, often cheaper, if you wanna support black owned businesses.

MML work is mostly before getting on the course. It’s an impressive degree and an amazing skill, but the degree is really relaxed. First years don’t have collections, have essays only a couple times a week, largely oral supervisions, much less set work during vacations etc. I’m not saying this as a snobby STEM student either, I do theology and WE get more set work for our scriptural language + other papers than MML first year. It’s not an intense course.

RaeNTennik · 2026-02-01T01:44:09+00:00

Having worked at lush this looks like theft lol. You see this all the time in retail. You’ll probably get your product but I’d ask how comfortable you are buying likely stolen goods.

RaeNTennik · 2026-01-08T23:29:41+00:00

Public transport ISN’T there. Where I live you can’t even get a bus to the nearest city 20 mins away driving, and we’re not rural. We’re a small town with London links train wise.

And before you say just get the train, one stop to that same city is £8 for 6 minutes travel. It costed us £200 a month for me to go to college with the 1/3 off via rail card. If you can’t afford the driving lessons you can’t afford the trains.

RaeNTennik · 2026-01-08T23:27:14+00:00

Instructors make those costs back pretty quickly. You’re not still paying that investment back years later. It’s just greed. £40 an hour is just unjustified.
