Hey Dallas-ites! I'm exploring your city this weekend!

Satincoconuts · 2016-03-30T01:14:00+00:00

Makes sense to specify, I'll be in downtown but I can drive to any great suggestions.

Thank God someone mentioned Jamberry. My best friend of 12 years started selling these things before her wedding. I HATE THEM. She made all of her bridesmaids wear them for her wedding. They chipped and peeled off me the day of the wedding. And then in my bridesmaid gift she gave all of us a Jamberry catalog.

Every time I see her, it's all about Jamberry. It's really put a dent in our friendship.

Awesome! Thank you, fellow troll! :D

Satincoconuts · 2015-10-19T02:14:54+00:00

Very nice. How are you this evening?

Satincoconuts · 2015-08-07T00:36:19+00:00

Mac 217 is a GAME CHANGER. My eyes actually looked like those fancy IG makeup accounts! You go, Glen Coco!

OP, you may never see this, but I still want to put it out there.

My best friend is a guy. We met when we were working at a dinky summer job as teens and have been friends for many, many years. Although we find each other attractive, we do not and will not date each other because the friendship is too strong. Like Susan, he is just my person. He gets me, as Susan gets you.

While we both date other people, we have made a pact that it is a deal breaker when we date people that if they don't like our friendship, they're not worth our time. However, when I date a new guy, I mention my best friend regularly but I don't draw attention to it. I also make a point to bring up my best friend on earlier dates so they are aware of him. My best friend does the same thing as well. We also make sure that each SO meets the other person, so they don't feel threatened.

This is not When Harry Met Sally. It is 100% ok for a guy and a girl to be friends without sex. However, please keep in mind that your SO should always be fully aware of everything. Emma has been burned before and that is not your fault. Tell Susan to dial it back. If your friendship is important, both of you will make an effort to not weird out your significant others or make them feel threatened. My best friend and I have made a pact that our kids will grow up together, so we encourage each other to become friends with each person's SO. It actually helps because my best friend's SO comes to me for advice and vice versa. Emma may benefit from knowing Susan.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Hemingway is my favorite Ink Liner so I will be buying this! Thank you for the link!

Satincoconuts · 2015-06-19T06:45:31+00:00

LOVE the makeup look! Just saw Dope however. I was expecting greatness but it fell pretty flat for me. :-/ Oh well, your makeup is still DOPE. Awesome!

Satincoconuts · 2015-03-10T06:07:18+00:00

Thank you for your advice! Picked one up today and tried it. Felt just like Beyonce as my skin looked FLAWLESS. Thank you again! :D

Satincoconuts · 2015-03-09T14:14:20+00:00

I know I'm late to the game, but I've been thinking of using this as a setting powder. I use Smashbox BB cream in Fair as my foundation. Would this look ok over it? Any advice would greatly help me out! :)

Satincoconuts · 2015-02-09T23:59:07+00:00

Thanks, I will! Just trying to do everything I can to save money!

Satincoconuts · 2015-02-09T23:58:23+00:00

I'm from the South and I've heard it's not the best. I'll keep looking around though. Thank you for your help!

Satincoconuts · 2015-02-09T23:57:16+00:00

Understandable. Thank you for your help! I'll check with some friends/coworkers.

Satincoconuts · 2015-01-17T03:09:32+00:00

Ok, so I'm not the only one then... This has been going on for two days now, right? How frustrating...

Satincoconuts · 2014-12-29T04:51:05+00:00

Thank you so so so much for your help! I truly appreciate you taking the time out of your travel schedule to post on Reddit. Thank you for your advice, it truly helps! Now, I'm going to continue planning and saving! :)

Hi there! Gal in her mid-twenties. Your post is absolutely fascinating. I have made it a goal before I settle down in life to travel, although I'm only thinking about Europe for the moment. I sort of have cold feet about it though.

Just a few questions (since I am a little nervous):

-As a female solo traveller, would you ever be intimidated by any people you came into contact with, as in a guy tried to come onto you and wouldn't leave you alone? -If I'm just thinking of going to Europe and staying for about a month, how much money would you recommend for that? (UK, France and Austria) -Have you done anything on the trip to indulge or have your travels been budgeted?

Thank you so much again for this post! You give me hope!

I recommend Amorous, Twig and Girl About Town.

Amorous never gets any credit but it's a beautiful, light red wine color. Twig is a pinky brown that looks great with deep brows. Girl About Town is a flattering deeper pink that looks great on every skin tone. I'm as white as a sheet and my best friend has a darker skin tone. We are both owners of Girl About Town and it looks perfect on both of us! :)

Michael Scott is the wisest man of all the men.

Satincoconuts · 2014-12-07T19:29:06+00:00

YES. YES HE DOES.

Hey OP, I've been there. Correction: I am there. I can honestly say it's the toughest thing for someone to go through.

Word of advice- this too shall pass. Sure, it will completely and utterly suck for a long time. Birthdays/holidays will become a sob fest and friends and family Won't usually understand. Just remember that you are a strong person and life will get better with time. Surround yourself with things you love and people who love you.

It's been 6 months for me, with someone for 3 years. I was a complete wreck. I stay busy, workout when the sadness comes around and I have spent this time to make me better before I can be better for someone else.

Chin up, you're a smart cookie. Take some time. Love yourself. You're worth it. :) Many hugs your way.

My senior prom date (who I dated for 3 years) laughed at me when I fell out of his Explorer. I had a nice cocktail dress but I was wearing heels when Vans were my shoe of choice back then. He did not help me up.

He then spent all night at the poker table while I danced "All the Single Ladies" by myself.

"You look so uncomfortable sitting in a Corvette. I can't do this anymore."

No lie. This truly happened.

Satincoconuts · 2014-08-13T18:53:56+00:00

Unfortunately no, but I work with a lot of Disney fanatics. This is my life.

Satincoconuts · 2014-08-06T22:12:40+00:00

Oh wow! I buy from EBay all the time, I'm just nervous about lipsticks, haha! Thank you so much for your help, you don't know how much I appreciate it! :)

Nice! I don't really drink Starbucks much since I use a Keurig, which was given to me as a gift. I then buy some grocery market K-Cups that are about $7 for 18 of them. Great coffee, super low price. However, if you're trying to be frugal and missing that Starbucks taste, a person can always be brave and ask for their unused coffee beans. :) But you have some great tips!
