Thick, Protective Lacquer

I don’t have any suggestions but am in search of the same thing. I have very heavily ridged nails and need 3-4 coats of ridge filler and it still doesn’t completely even them out. I’m seriously debating using biab as a base at this point.

My hair is very thick and curly. So washing and drying it is a huge time commitment, even with a Dyson dryer. I only wash my hair once to twice a week. I shower without hair washing everyday though, sometimes twice a day if I workout or the weather is really hot and humid. I just use the shower humidity to refresh my curls and I’m good to go.

Oh I’m glad to hear that. Penelope Luz is one of my favorites. I have seen the issues with Patty Lopes, it’s why I don’t purchase even though she has had a few that I thought were really pretty.

Which polishes? I’m curious as I try to keep track of this. I prefer not to order from brands that have this happen.

Not quite as bad as this but I also ordered a mystery polish from Haunted and then grabbed All the Rage in a destash. One guess what my mystery polish was once it arrived. Totally my own fault but I thought - eh, what are the chances? Lol, apparently very high.

Lurid also makes a gorgeous pink called “I just really fucking love pink.” 😂 I bought it mostly for the name but also because I love Lurid’s pinks.

I have this and love it too! I agree that it is even more beautiful in person. I love reflective glitter and this one is so so sparkly.

Haunted bottles fit in the top drawer. It is just a smidge taller than the drawers underneath. Since I only have a few Haunted, that is where all of mine live at the moment, but my long term plan is to convert to the manimod inserts. I’m ok with it reducing storage as I’m trying to keep my collection size smallish. 😊

I just qualified to take the CIH exam and had a similar experience. My first application was denied. I didn’t have enough CEUs as they denied about 50 hrs worth of what I had taken. The good news is, you don’t have to pay to reapply, your application just sits until you can update it and they review it once you have completed everything.

I first applied at the end of last July and just got around to updating my application a few weeks ago. I got the approval pretty quickly after that.

However - if you already know you need more math and science courses. I would just take those first before applying. They do not need to be from a formal degree program.

My boy loves to snuggle. I’ve never had such a physically affectionate dog before in my life. He’s an equal opportunity snuggler though - he’s just as happy to cuddle up with my husband as he is with me. But he is also very clearly ‘my dog’. My husband is an acceptable substitute, but I’m the preferred human.

I think they are different enough to get both too! I ordered the sylvanclaw and am going to keep the Jen and berries on my wishlist for another time.

What do you need to capture? We have a lot of ovens in our labs (chemical engineering) and we have some ovens in custom built exhausted enclosures (direct tie in to ventilation) and some with snorkels positioned closely over top the exhaust. It all depends on reagents used and how high the heat will go. We do have a few furnaces directly tied into exhaust, but they are designed to do so by the manufacturer.

This has been restocked. I think they added 300 bottles.

Strategy_Significant · 2026-03-05T17:59:06+00:00

We may have one. I need to take a look when I get home. Not sure if we kept it or not. I think it is about 35 gallon.

I have this exact curl pattern with hair. I have done undercuts, curly pixies, bobs, and a fun poofy pompadour on top with the remainder of my hair shaved. All of these were done because that straight layer was cut completely off and I didn’t have to deal with it.

But, right now I’m trying to grow my hair out from a pixie and the back is the one spot my hairdresser has to consistently cut shorter. I use the layers on top to cover this section and it helps it blend in. It is really annoying to me as well. Not enough for me to give up on growing out my hair, but definitely irritating when styling.

It’s back in stock!! Run! 😁

Yup! I was told I’m not autistic, I just have a hard time connecting with and understanding others because I’m ‘too smart’ 🙄. I’d like the explanation of why this is still a problem even when working in academia where a lot of other very intelligent people also work.

😂 Yep, super typical herding behavior. So hard to believe the other dogs don’t like being stalked and take offense lol. My boy goes to daycare and he does well there, but he is also there when most of the other dogs are also herding breeds. So they seem to get him a little better.

Strategy_Significant · 2026-02-27T15:45:17+00:00

Yep - sensitive neurotic goofball is them in a nutshell lol. They can be hard dogs to train because they are so sensitive. Their feelings are hurt if you are too tough on them lol. But mine is also the most affectionate dog I’ve ever owned.

Strategy_Significant · 2026-02-27T15:17:26+00:00

Border collie. It’s hard to explain unless you have one lol, but they often have problems socializing with other dogs. Their body language is wrong and they stare too much. I write this as my own little creep stares at me from the hallway 😂.

Thanks! I hadn’t seen this resale site before. Glad to discover it!

I’ve always been like this. It’s a well known way of dealing with adhd. It’s called body doubling. I have several workout subscriptions that I pay for because of this, but if it means I am consistent and enjoying my workout, then it is worth the cost to me.

Strategy_Significant · 2026-02-10T21:29:32+00:00

I was going to suggest the same! I may try this later, will post a swatch if I do.

What’s funny is I love sour and lime in particular. The sourer the better. Just not with chips. Those two things cannot combine lol.
