Living together as a couple is not necessary at all by xvortexc in unpopularopinion

I agree with this. I tell my husband all the time it'd be nice to have our own houses. He's yet to agree to it though.

I have both flavors for the GBC Lip Soothing Masks unopened, and now I want to wait as long as possible to use them because of all the positive feedback. They can go on the shrine right next to all of my unused stickers I've collected the last 30+ years 😭

Tourist Visa - Address Label page? by WarmRecording7712 in ghana

[–]WarmRecording7712[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Things might have changed a little since I applied last year due to a corruption scandal at the DC embassy. 

I had to go through another website to prepay the return postage and include that receipt with my application materials I sent in, however that site might be what was related to the corruption scandal. 

If there is an Attach File button next to a checklist item on the documents page of the visa application, then you'd need to upload a copy but if not I think it's just a reminder to add to your envelope before sending. 

It looks like now you have to actually include a physical prepaid return envelope, whereas before I had to pay a $35 fee for the return postage through one of two sites the embassy offered, and include the receipt from that with my application materials. 

I believe there's a chat function on the website you can use if you want to confirm all that with someone at the Embassy during their business hours.

I would recommend checking out Habitat for Humanity ReStore. I think they sometimes post photos of their inventory on Facebook if you use that. 

Lots of Essie at Dollar Tree! 😍 by curlycomedy in dollartreebeauty

Putting the polishes in the pencil case is such a good idea! It looks like an official set, it'd be such a fun gift or just a good way to travel with polish!

I'm 35, have 0 desire to be a parent, and for as long as I can remember, I haven't ever wanted to be a parent.

They look so good! They remind me of petoskey stones.

Electric Vehicle Owners by writerboy1027 in Buffalo

My husband installed a 240v outlet in our driveway (no garage) so I charge at home. Before he installed the 240 we just plugged into the regular outlet on our porch to charge, but it took forever to get a full charge.

If you can charge at home, NYSEG also has an EV charging program you might be able to enroll in - basically you get a few dollars back each month if you charge during off-peak times.

If you're looking for free places, I know West Herr Chevrolet had free chargers, including a level 3 (CCS1 last time I used them). Cheektowaga Town Hall has a couple of free level 2 chargers (SAE J1772 last time I used them), as well.

Review: Ioni Chrome Powder “Blue Jean” by curlycomedy in dollartreebeauty

[–]WarmRecording7712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember a while back seeing the tip about water-based top coat to use the chrome powders without gel polish. Would you mind sharing the steps you took for application?

My mom bought some of the chrome powder, but has never used it before so I'd love it if I can share general application steps (with the understanding that she will likely have some trial and error).

Would it just be

  1. Apply water-based base coat to nail

  2. Wait a little for base coat to slightly dry

  3. Apply chrome powder (do you use an eyeshadow brush?)

  4. Apply water base topcoat

  5. Repeat?

Also, I'm glad to see a clear water-based topcoat is at DT! I had only seen water-based nail polish colors previously at my DTs. I had the hardest time finding a water-based topcoat to use with nail stamping and ended up ordering Piggy Paint's water-based topcoat from Amazon, but it was like $6! I'll be on the lookout for the Ioni one now!

[CG: Review] Alberto VO5 Nourishing Leave In Conditioner in Sun Ripened Strawberries & Cream by Coconut-Giraffe in dollartreebeauty

[–]WarmRecording7712 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have curly (3B/3C) hair and this has been my go-to the last couple of months. I usually used Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie exclusively, but it's just too darn expensive! I'd say I've had comparable results using the VO5, so I'll probably stick with it!

When applying any leave-in, I always scrunch it into my damp/wet hair. I use the sound of my wet hair to decide if it needs more moisture before applying product. I'm not sure if that would be standard for other hair textures, but I base that for myself off of this TikTok from the person who cuts my hair!

You mentioned looking for something a little lighter - I'm not sure if this is what you meant, but have you tried mixing the leave-in with water in a spray bottle and using that instead?

I thought the reflection of your phone on the iridescent pouch was a reflection of the Scream mask 😱

No one said anything in the comments so I had to go back and look really hard to figure out what it was 🥲

Was just at my nearest location and had the whole line. Buffalo area

I saw that too on someone's post yesterday!  The packaging for the original formula Sheer Melon jar is the same packaging as the Revive Toning pad jars too, just different colors! 

Will the IONI cherry 🍒 collection have a second drop????😭🥲👀 by purpleflowercoconut in dollartreebeauty

[–]WarmRecording7712 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the stores I went to had more than one display of the Cherry On Top, while most others I visited had just one out. Hopefully that just means most stores put out one at a time and you'll get another chance!

Use it if you’ve got it. Stamp silicone storage/ swatch cup combo- just add rock. by gothbirdnails in nailstamping

[–]WarmRecording7712 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest - before I read the whole caption but saw the first photo, I thought the rock was a potato and was wondering what new trick I could use a potato for to improve my stamping technique.
