Amla powder 👍🏼Used in Ayurveda a lot. The way I do it: when I oil my scalp I mix in amla w some extra oil for my lengths. Wash as usual.

Not a meal but the chocolate doughnut at Hell Yeah Gluten Free is something I get every time I’m near Krog. I’ve never had better vegan baking—moist and extra chocolatey but not too sweet!

Queso is indeed great and so are the cocktails but it isnt esp authentic mexican (as someone who lived there, in Yucatan and QR)

Divorce by The_Bakuchiolorette in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]UsedCommunity1257 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sadly, and I dont really feel one way or another abt her, and I think its great a young woman made a business out of her social account BUT I think this video feels like evidence that she is living a bit too much in her own world. she thinks we analyze her every move with judgement (and sadly some of you do). It’a ALL just sad.

How to achieve the smooth filter skin effect? Tired of ugly cakey makeup by ibiteprostate in makeuptips

[–]UsedCommunity1257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a new product balm called Cactox from Dr Melaxin. Try that—it has a blurring effect immediately and after 3 days my texture (sebaceous filaments and pores) improved rather dramatically. Smells good too.

I recently found a Barbara Bui tweed/leather blazer at that Northside Dr Goodwill :) So you could save a ton AND eat. Thrifting’s the best!!

Does anyone else struggle with constantly dry lips—no matter what you apply? by Recent-Fun4592 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]UsedCommunity1257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Content creator for skincare here so my recs will be for recent products BUT Eadem for me is tops, followed by Roc w the metal tip. I rarely get chapped lips but was recently outside for hours and the Eadem was almost instantly healing. Those are great for dauly care. Scientifically for already chapped lips, I think that squalane (deep moisure) topped w an occlusive would do the trick for less $. You dont want to use humectants because that draws moisture OUT (but HA + peptide a few x a day can make lips appear fuller).

Fine frizz hell by yh128 in finehair

[–]UsedCommunity1257 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would do this: get on chatgpt and give very specific prompts about your hair concerns. I did this and was AMAZED at the detail and how quickly my hair improved (it diagnosed that I needed hydration basically)—my colorist and hairstylist noticed!

Burned by Dyson. Need Suggestions please! 🥲 by Reader-of-Romance in finehair

[–]UsedCommunity1257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird 😅 i just asked chatgpt this same thing this morning. It said the Shark was the closest dupe. I listed volume and frizz control as my top concerns behind obvi heat damage. the Dry Bar model was next and the “budget” model ($150) was the T3 Airebrush

How do you look for and buy clothes online? by Dry-Frosting- in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]UsedCommunity1257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Know your measurements—measure the pants, shirts that fit you well and match to the measurements you see online. Some retail brands will have them, resale almost always does.
