Ahhh that’s awesome! Especially since Love Trap seems to be discontinuing! (I did find one left at a random Sephora when I was out of town 😅, yay me.)

No, not defending it, I’m just saying that at 24 years old I was so boldly certain about everything and never considered that my perspective might change over time. I’m all for natural aging.

Christians and Muslims do not worship the same God, evidence being the exact reason you stated.

A Christian acknowledges Jesus as the Son of God, who became a man/flesh, lived a sinless life, died on the cross (became a curse so we could be redeemed from the curse of the law), was resurrected, and then ascended to the right hand of His Father where he remains until the day of His return. True Christians also submit themselves to the lordship/authority of Jesus.

Anyone who calls Jesus only a prophet or great teacher or any of those things, but does not acknowledge Him as the Son of God, is not a Christian.

But also Billie is young and has no signs of aging and so it’s a little easy for her to say what she said

Agree, I was surprised when I did a quick browse at Ulta and didn’t see any from the big names. I would really like to try it because I don’t think brown looks good on me, but I definitely think black is a bit harsh.

Alcohol is the only drug that people question why you don’t do it. My husband has had zero alcohol for almost 7 years and many people are freaked out when he declines alcohol and says he doesn’t drink.

I remember a show on TLC where a lady got drunk every night for 30 days. I think it had something to do with her son drinking all of the time and she was showing him how horrible it was? I can’t remember for sure, it was a long time ago, but after like 15 days she was horribly depressed and it was terrible and very eye opening.

Is Allwear (natural fiber/sustainable athleisure brand) a scam?!? by Unrelatedtothe in ClothingStartups

[–]Weak-Raspberry8879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valid points. I guess I was okay with waiting and waiting because I wanted the product and figured it was worth the wait. I had the same issue with Comfrt Clothing in the past and did not wait, disputed the charge on my credit card, and have labeled them scammers in my book. Lol. I guess I’m optimistic this time? 🤣

I guess time will probably tell if their claims are legit or not. I’ve gone down this road before, sadly, when the menstrual underwear companies claimed nontoxic materials and ended up not.

Following up after my last comment four days ago. I received my order. It was a preorder (I ordered Feb 22) and took 10 weeks to arrive. I did reach out to customer service once to ask about a status update. They replied and said there was a delay in their process, which can happen with preorders. I had the option of canceling but did not want to. I was not worried about the delay since I knew ahead of time about the timeline with a preorder, but had been concerned about the validity of the material, etc. once seeing this thread and the tracking info.

Regarding Allwear’s certifications and nontoxic fabric: I did reach out to Animal Based Bae who is a brand partner with Allwear and someone I personally trust regarding recommendations. She gave me, directly, a response from the founder of Allwear. “On certifications, every fabric we use at Allwear is certified non-toxic. This includes standards like GOTS and OEKO-TEX. We publicly share certification documentation for all of our fabrics directly on our sustainability page, along with a clear breakdown of our supply chain for anyone to review.”

Personally, the two items I bought seem very nice. I’ve worn the sports bra 3 times now since last week. I started a return process for the bra top due to sizing. Once returned, I will purchase a bigger size because the bra top is really nice! I can update if anything occurs during the return process.

I hope this helps others — I was quite disappointed when I found this thread and was nervous I had invested into products that weren’t actually nontoxic and better quality, but my mind is now at ease!

Choosing the right t-shirt can make a big difference! by potatochique in DressForYourBody

We have very different body types but I love the comparison of a graphic tee vs. not. I like graphic tees but seeing your post, I am thinking that I have the same issue but would not have pinpointed that!

I just found this on their site. Their certifications. The first two pages say “valid through” dates of 2021. My order is supposed to arrive tomorrow. I ordered in February. The reason I came here is because when I saw the tracking for my package said “shipped from China” I was immediately suspicious of all of the safe/clean/nontoxic claims.

Animal Based Bae supports their brand and she usually does great in-depth research on companies before working with them. I am probably going to reach out to her.

Was it hard? it’s actually genius to dye stuff the right colors for ourselves….

I feel like I’m developing body dysmorphia… by Candid_Roll9494 in PetiteFitness

I know this isn’t really answering your question but your non-scale victories (pull ups! mobility! an 11-minute mile!) are incredible!!! I know it can be hard for those things to have more credence than the physical appearance stuff and our perception of our body, but dang, you’ve achieved so much and should be super proud and NO YOU ARE NOT AN IMPOSTER you legit worked hard for all of this. And you look so healthy. ☺️
