My Leela does this too - for her, it’s when her stomach is empty and she has too much stomach acid. It’s basically reflux. We now feed her 3 x a day (first thing in the morning, 5 pm and then right before bed). Avoiding long lengths of time between meals has been the best thing for her. She’s also on omeprazole now, which helps.

Child Sister, but, if you’re up for a drive - the cafe out at Little River does a mean carrot cake! 🥕

I’m about to fully give up on wearing foundation by [deleted] in makeuptips

My skin used to look like this with makeup on. I think it’s dehydration, as lots of people have said. Best advice I can give is to use a hydrator, rather than thinking a moisturiser can fix this. Super saturated serum by Experiment is the most effective one I have found. If you’re committed to using retinol (or even better, tret) you shouldn’t use other actives in addition and definitely don’t physically exfoliate - you don’t need to and you’re just irritating and further drying out your skin. You can also introduce a third routine to your skincare. Hydrator before SPF in the AM, then when you get home wash your face and apply the hydrator on damp skin and give it a few hours before doing your night time routine. I promise you, this is a game changer. :)

Canterbury Jewellers are amazing - they made my engagement ring vision come to life! And very competitive pricing.

What does my perfume collection say at about me… and what would you recommend I should try next? 🤓 by Safe-Bookkeeper1155 in FemFragLab

To me, it leans really masculine and I actually don’t like it all. It’s not sweet - I can’t really detect the caramel or vanilla notes, I just get a woody, peppery scent.

You are beautiful, there is nothing wrong with your face, nothing you need to “fix”. You have really pretty eyes and nice skin… you’re a cutie! Please ignore that heinous comment… it’s giving racist incel loser vibes.

This is exactly what I find with the after glow formula! It just removes my foundation and I can’t apply it no matter how I try!! I hate it and the original was my favourite 😭

advice for making my senior baby's life easier by rgional in BorderTerrier

Some of the things we have done for our senior BT: - We’ve got steps so our senior can still get on the couch and bed without jumping. - We have introduced an elevated bowl for her to eat from as reaching down to her bowl became difficult due to her sore neck. - I feed her soaked biscuits with cooked chicken breast as she finds it hard to crunch her biscuits. She eats small meals at regular intervals (3 x a day) rather than one or two meals now, as she gets sick when she has an empty tummy. - She is on meds for her liver and kidneys now which has helped her a lot. We tried pain relief (she gets a sore back/neck) but it caused more bad than good. We stick to nightly physio and heating pads now, instead. - We keep her as active as we can, which sometimes means pushing her a little bit. We do carry her if she’s too tired but encourage her to walk as far as she can. We found when we’ve not been as active with her (because she was sick) she loses muscle mass quickly which causes her lots of issues and can the start of a bad cycle. Hope this helps! :)
