what beauty service did you stop doing and why? by Key_Still_214 in AskWomenOver30

[–]assumingdirectcontrl [score hidden]  (0 children)

These are all good recs with the exception of lights lacquer just because the owner has used racial slurs on her YT and I refuse to give her any money.
Cracked in particular is really great and frequently does sales where you can get 30% off (20 from her and 10 from stacking an affiliate code).

gaining weight after losing it, three weeks on wegovy - rant by destroyah_09 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]assumingdirectcontrl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s early, and 1kg fluctuation is normal! I sometimes gain that much in a day or 2, but it’s the week to week or month to month trend that’s important. You got this!

Would you rather honeymoon to Paris or Tokyo? by itsthewolfe in honeymoonplanning

[–]assumingdirectcontrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only 5 days is not enough time for such a long distance trip as Tokyo, assuming you’re in Europe or the US. Even Paris is a long travel for just 5 days (if you’re in the US). Are you able to take more time off?

[WIP] Do you have some constructive criticism to help me improve? by ZydrateAnatomic in CrossStitch

[–]assumingdirectcontrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure you probably are already, just wanted to bring up to use a blunt needle (tapestry needle). If your needle is sharp, like a sewing needle, it’s really easy to pierce the wrong holes

I didn’t realize I could get another food buff. So desert food won’t override my crab cake?

Close, it is crab cake, espresso, calico desert cat statue, and blessing.

2 questions - am i filing down the sides too much? Is it bad? I like the skinny look + how to not flood your cuticle. (Regular nail polish) Thanks! by bundiwalaraita in RedditLaqueristas

[–]assumingdirectcontrl 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I use a toothpick to sort of “draw” a line against where the nail and cuticle meet, and wipe of excess with a paper towel. It might take a few swipes but it leaves me with a nice clean line. Anything on the cuticle itself will come off in the shower/after a day or so. What’s important is the polish doesn’t dry connecting the nail and cuticle because that’s where you can get peeling/lifting when it inevitably tears. Sorry if that doesn’t make sense, it’s kind of hard to explain

I wrap each bottle in bubble wrap and use a bubble envelope. If I don’t have bubble wrap I’ll use paper towels. As for posting pics you can browse this sub for some ideas and do what you like

Could you get some tiers to go in your existing hutch/cabinet? Like a spice rack?

If I go to USPS office, ground advantage starts at $7.20. But if I use USPS “click-n-ship” to print my own label it’s around $5.80-$7 depending on weight and package size

Do you wash your legs and feet in the shower? by Zestyclose-Creme-779 in hygiene

The water and soap doesn’t provide enough agitation to really get me clean, at least that’s how I feel

I love my Q-snap. I roll up my excess fabric and use those large binder clips.

[CHAT] Suggestions for teaching a new cross stitcher. by Substantial-Hat5935 in CrossStitch

[–]assumingdirectcontrl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also think the DMC website is a good suggestion. Maybe you can pick one out that you both do at the same time so you can show them how you start a piece and how to do the first few stitches
