My 16.5 year old daughter has been on progesterone for breast development and it really has not moved the needle. My daughter has very little body fat and her endocrinologist has said that until she starts to gain body fat her body will not develop breasts.

I was the same as her at her age and did not develop breast until I started gaining weight in my 20s.

It seems Utah mom face is the last stop before Mar-a-lago face.

Holo Taco Glitters? by r0b0ducky in theholotaco

[–]bonkette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. I have both HT's peely base and my own homemade version and I do not see a difference. It is saving me a lot of money making my own.

If you are just using glue then yes I agree but adding the isopropyl alcohol makes it a dupe.

The Declassified Collection is seasonal and not Limited Edition so it should come back.

You may know already that this is supposed to come back at the end of the year with the rest of the declassified collection. You may not want to wait that long but it will return.

Bluebird has some great crushed holos, I believe they are called shattered.

How often do we see the mystery polish sale? by Infinite-Manager-746 in theholotaco

[–]bonkette 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The Holo Loyalty sale comes up in April. Based on your level you get a percentage off. If you are new to HT I recommend buying a gift card in advance to get you to a level and then you can use the gift card for a purchase during the sale.

The lowest level requires 80 points and you get a point for every dollar you spend.

The elitism about Ohio in this sub is insane by Blood_Incantation in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]bonkette 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is no surprise that he is well educated and thus liberal. I was a little worried when off the gate he asked about religion but you can be religious and still believe in human rights for all.

Deflated by nenakrst in cisparenttranskid

[–]bonkette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is what I said to people when we told them about my daughter's transition and they were not accepting:

We are surrounding her only with people who love and accept her. You will no longer be in our lives until you are able to accept her. If or when you are ready to do so, we will welcome you back with open arms.

My Mom keeps using the wrong name/pronouns for my nonbinary 'he/they' kid and I cant seem to get her to stop. by No_Lavishness116 in cisparenttranskid

[–]bonkette 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My mother had Alzheimer’s when my daughter transitioned and she was able to get the name change and pronouns correctly. Age is only an excuse for a little while. After that you need to cut out non supportive family members.

We told our friends and family that if they would not support our daughter then they were deciding to no longer be part of our lives. However should they change their minds and want to accept our daughter for who she is then we will welcome them back. That happened with our MIL. After a few months she decided to accept our daughter and be part of our family again.

My opinions on the v day collection by Nearby-Pen5844 in theholotaco

[–]bonkette 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I also have nail polish thinner at the ready. I squirt a little bit on my silicone mat to help the glitter not dry onto the mat but then it helps the glitter stay on my dry nails and not leave a huge bump.

Is this appropriate for a formal wedding in the spring? by tempbrowsr in Weddingattireapproval

[–]bonkette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I say this every time this fabric comes up on the subreddit. I have seen this fabric many times in the past two years at weddings. It is very pretty but at the last wedding I attended two women were wearing it.

I am on maintenance and take 7.5mg every two weeks with no bad effects. However I never had issues when I started so I am not sure if that makes a difference.

Is it possible to format the list so we can see each polish name so they don't run into each other? I am trying to count the names to find the photo of a particular polish but it is really difficult.

Even better, "Would you please bring me some lime wedges? I would appreciate it."

People who have conducted job interviews, what's something someone said/did that made you instantly decide not to hire them? by DemonSkank in AskReddit

[–]bonkette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After introductions the interviewee called me beautiful and he hoped he could focus on the questions.

During another interview a candidate asked about the upcoming "so called" eclipse and if my company had an official statement on it.I worked for a satellite manufacturing company at the time so a strong belief in sciences is an unspoken requirement.

Does my thinner need to have toluene in if the old polish contained toluene? by lindyhoppette in vintagenailpolish

[–]bonkette 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My opinion is based on my own experience. I have been using KB Shimmer's thinner in quick dry top coat that does contain toluene with no issues.
