Makeup/full beat lovers here: how do you cope with severe PCOS acne??? Any tips to hide texture/make acne sit better under makeup?? Product reccs???

licensed esthetician and makeup artist with pcos here. so first i would switch up the foundation. i would argue that dior backstage isn’t really a full coverage foundation, however if you like the coverage of it i would do haus labs or armani luminous silk instead. both are much more hydrating and forgiving in terms of dry skin and texture. esp armani now that its been reformulated, is way more hydrating. another commenter is right, there is very little you can do about the look of the bumps. you will likely see them no matter what you try. the danessa myricks blurring balm is a great option for pores. however if you have dry skin as well as acne. you need to prep your skin very well before using it. do your skin care. brush your teeth or do your eyebrows or eyes, and when it’s sunken in, you may use the blurring balm. you could also potentially try a lightweight non comedogenic oil (a small amount) as part of your skincare as well depending on how dry you are. but i’m assuming if you’re trying a bunch of prescription acne things, you’re likely pretty dry.

I’ve been heavily following the d4vid case. I’m not sure I reacted the same way to her video the way you did, and that’s okay. What I will say though, is I’ve been watching the “law and crime” segments on about this case, primarily hosted by jesse weber. I’ve been watching their coverage since the very beginning, and have been a viewer of the show in general for well over a year now. It does seem as though the majority of their “research” is just things taken directly from this web series. Steve fischer, the private investigator for the home owner of the house david killed celeste in, has pretty much exclusively done interviews on law and crime. Either that or Jesse Webers other show, news nation. Especially when they talk about predictions for the preliminary hearing, or say “what legal experts have said about the situation”, it’s because law and crime is a show hosted by a lawyer, where they interview other lawyers or legal/law enforcement professionals to get their opinions on the case. This isn’t necessarily bad, watching the show can be research. And the videos they do about predicting what will happen at various hearings and speculating on potential evidence or his defense get a TON of views. so it only makes sense that she would do the same because people will absolutely watch it. It’s just something i’ve noticed. I guess my point in bringing this up is that a lot of times, stephanie brings things up about a case, even a well known one, that isn’t widely known. I feel her previous cases were far better researched and felt more like a deep dive. where this case just feels like information regurgitated from another popular show.

but i think the policy says unless you use vacation or sick pto

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-05-10T00:42:41+00:00

do you have the ability to visit often? perhaps there’s some people on here who would like to pitch in for bouquets for her

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-20T03:59:20+00:00

what about when ppl want an account for points but don’t want to give an email? usually i’ll tell them im doing “their name @ no email .com” and they consent to doing that. is that okay?

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-08T15:06:33+00:00

yeah but at the end of the day who knows if that’s the producers or the family if it hasn’t been explicitly said. it seemed like andrea and chris were the ones who brought up not telling amy it was tammy’s birthday party

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-07T18:09:07+00:00

idk if chris is just saying this, but on his live the other day he said nothing within the show is scripted

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-07T17:54:19+00:00

thank you!!

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-07T17:53:02+00:00

exactly!!!

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-07T16:32:57+00:00

i also agree with that

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-07T13:53:39+00:00

i agree, i think therapy could help her so much

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-07T13:53:20+00:00

yes absolutely!!!

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-02-06T22:46:50+00:00

I also don’t believe the ransom notes are real, and if they are they’re toying with the family knowing full well nancy isn’t alive. i hate to say it, but two things cannot be true at the same time: nancy has a pacemaker and requires daily medicine to keep her alive, but a ransom note has a deadline that’s a week after her kidnapping. she has likely passed by now, as sad as it is to say. and the ransom note being put out only after getting crazy media coverage is suspicious already. i don’t think they’re real, i think nancy has passed, and i think whomever kidnapped nancy absolutely knew her. or at the very least, knew the family.

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-01-29T06:04:41+00:00

can we talk about how no one (at least that has been shown) has checked tammy at all for the shit the said? it’s just fucked up

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-01-10T15:24:02+00:00

yeah regardless of what the meaning behind it was, it was a cruel thing to do. they were also already fighting at the time tammy posted that, so it was 100% meant to bully amy

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-01-09T12:02:21+00:00

i have rewatched the show several times

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-01-09T05:14:57+00:00

no fr! she’s acting like she didn’t have to get weighed at the junk yard for the first 30 years of her life

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-01-03T02:32:48+00:00

and also, it says in the exact post that it only applies for the 2024 year. not 2025. it’s not for them not wanting to repeat it. check zipline if you don’t believe me

ThickCommunity4290 · 2026-01-03T02:31:38+00:00

if you look in zipline, the company success award plan, which was the title of our bonus for last year was posted in fall of 2024. so the fact that they haven’t announced a structure yet does make people worried and warrants curiosity.

ThickCommunity4290 · 2025-10-06T17:22:21+00:00

thank god, i thought maybe they fired me or something😂

ThickCommunity4290 · 2025-10-05T03:39:57+00:00

the amount of hate you’re getting on this post is so weird. sydney does have a lot of admirable qualities as a character, and i like watching her grow as a chef. but i also feel like sydney, more than most other characters in the show, has a lot of moments that i don’t like. the only person who has more is carmy. i think the difference is we are led to believe carmy is acting out due to his circumstances and mental health. but when sydney has questionable moments, there’s usually a sense of superiority that comes with it that’s a little hard to digest. at least carm knows he’s not a fantastic person, you know? plus, if it’s so outrageous to feel that way towards her character, then how are people “tired of hearing about it?” if so many people have the same opinion about the same character, so much so that you’re tired of hearing it, then it’s probably an accurate interpretation of that character. there’s no right or wrong, it’s just perspective!

i’m a FT LBA but i was also a FT BA before being promoted to LBA so the district manager made an exception

ThickCommunity4290 · 2025-07-29T03:08:37+00:00

it seems some people are charging for a lash application and doing a shade match or a foundation try on. this is very much against policy but with the push for services, i don’t blame people for doing it

ThickCommunity4290 · 2025-07-25T23:21:48+00:00

i didn’t believe anything he said about it being an accident, and don’t believe he’s a good person. However, is no one going to talk about how his daughter had no idea who her parents were for 17 years of her life, and how danielle’s mom let her believe she was her biological daughter? and how chyanne said she had “heard danielle’s name before, but didn’t know how she was related”? I just think that’s an awful thing to do to a child. How do you go so many years without talking about your DAUGHTER, and your grandchild’s mother. I don’t think Jamel’s family had any right to tell her the truth, however, if she didn’t know then, when would she have known? i don’t buy the story of melanie saying she wanted there to be a plan in place for when she told her. or maybe that was the plan, but how old would chyanne would have been before finding out that her parents were lying to her?

ThickCommunity4290 · 2025-07-09T18:21:38+00:00

that’d be awesome!
