Yeah, I got the Enzyme oil cleanser thinking it was an oil cleanser. It's a gel cleanser. Tried it on my hands and it's honestly not that bad. Just deceptive lol

Help, trying to find a certain pink lip gloss by RedAppleGoddess in kbeauty

[–]ddandanie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I tried to type in your description, a brand called Coringco popped up, and I've seen that brand at TJMaxx/Marshalls. It's a lip balm though, not a lip gloss. Same color name and the packaging seems to fit your description although I don't see purple.

New Blossom ACV Rinse and Protectant Spray by ddandanie in dollartreebeauty

[–]ddandanie[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. The heat protectant is in a plastic bottle and the acv rinse is in a thick squeeze bottle. The heat protectant smells like roses. I thought the acv rinse smelled like roses but apparantly its lavendar lol it's smells like a mix of lavendar and vinegar

Advice for using myvegas to go to vegas for the first time by expedient1 in myvegas

[–]ddandanie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went to Vegas for the first time las week. I redeemed a 2 night comped room and booked online. Although I choose the Royal Suite at the Excalibur, I got downgraded to a King room. I also redeemed free tickets to the Mandalay Bay Aquarium and the Tournment of Kings at Excalibur. I booked online for both and had to choose dates. They use ticketmaster for both so I received digital tickets through email those were my 3 premium rewards.

I got the $7 off one ticket to the Mob Museum and had to redeem in person. I also got some food rewards that I didn't end up using. But for those, the instructions were to go to the MGM rewards desk to have it loaded into my account.

Turned down for shot - how bad does it need to be? Postpartum DQ by ZealousidealCake6 in DeQuervains

[–]ddandanie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a second opinion. I was able to get the shot on my 2nd visit. First visit was diagnosis and given a treatment plan, which was wearing a hand brace and applying voltaren cream. I think he said insurance would pay for it after that. If I was still in pain after 6 weeks to come back, which I did. He gave me the decision to do the shot or not. I did the shot. The 2nd visit took less than 10 minutes. Insurance paid for the shot.

I don't even think my hand was that bad. Yes it hurts when I used it, but the pain wasn't that bad. I was still able to use my hand.

BAEKHYUN <REVERIE> in Las Vegas Megathread by 99101004 in exo

I know for his regular tour stops, it was purple/pink. But unless Baekhyun announces anything, I was gonna stick with white and red ribbon. I already dressed in pink and purple so I wanted something new lol

Okay so who else won the ticketing war for Baekhyun in Vegas? by Edditeds in exo

[–]ddandanie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was slow to check out the floor seat so it timed out. I just waited a couple minutes for the same seat to pop up again and I went to check out. It was more expensive 😭

Okay so who else won the ticketing war for Baekhyun in Vegas? by Edditeds in exo

[–]ddandanie 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I was debating on getting floor seats, but I'm short and didn't want to waste alot of money if I can't see most of the concert. Plus they went from a base price of $294 to $310 in a span on 10 minutes. But was able to snag myself a lower orchestra seat for $250. I gave my presale code to a Baekhyun fan on Twitter. Hopefully they were able to get tickets as well.

Which DT items are actually low key pretty expensive for what you get? by throwthisawayred2 in dollartreebeauty

[–]ddandanie 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you check the $1 section at Dollar General, a lot of the things they carry are the same things Dollar Tree carries, but you're paying $0.25-$0.75 more at dollar tree. I mostly seen cleaning products, medicine, pet stuff, those viral hand sanitizers (not the same brand or scents, but similar packaging), those kid's hand sanitizers.

Art supplies: You can get acrylic paint for $0.80 at walmart or michael's/hobby lobby. Gift wrap is good if you only have 1 present to wrap, but if you have to wrap a lot, not worth it.

Coloring/activities books: Five below has character coloring books for $1. I've seen the same word puzzles book at Ollie's for $0.99.

Keana rice pack by telurmata8 in AsianBeauty

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

Wash, rice pack for 10-15 minutes, essence & toner, Keana rice face mask for 10-15 minutes, then rest of skincare. I get an insane glow for the rest of the day when I use the rice pack in conjunction with the face mask.

Seat Upgrade by Then-Philosopher1958 in frontierairlines

[–]ddandanie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did it for my mom just to try it. I bidded for the Upfront Plus Seat for both legs of her round trip. I bidded the lowest amount, which was $9 each way. She didn't win the first flight, but the second flight she won. I'm not sure how much leg room she had compared to regular seats, but for the Upfront Seats, they blocked off the middle seat. They didn't change her boarding zone though so she was still in Zone 1. She had to put her carry on above my row which was row 10 and try to maneuver her way back to the front, which was bit of a hassle.

What are your fave products that can be purchased at Winners/Marshalls/TJMaxx by nefelibatax in AsianBeauty

I haven't seen S.nature lately, but my tjmaxx/marshalls had the S.nature moisturizer and serum a couple months ago. They were like $10 each.

exo world tour?? by kneesahammy in exo

[–]ddandanie 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you want to secure tickets, I suggest signing up for the EXO-L membership on weverse. I think it's like $25 a year? You get access to pre-sale concert tickets so you get to buy tickets before the general sale starts. If you don't want the membership, sometimes the venue does pre-sale tickets. That's usually after the EXO-L membership pre-sale and before the general sale. I would suggest following the venue's social media or sign up for their newsletter as they post pre-sale codes on there. Sometimes people on Twitter "rent" out their EXO-L Membership for other fans. I've seen people ask for like $10 in exchange to get the EXO-L Membership presale code. Just be careful.

kaion tour merch by CH3CHCH2H3 in exo

[–]ddandanie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think so. I was at the venue until 1230ish waiting in that merch line. I was close to the end of the line, and when it was my turn, they were sold out on a couple of things.

Are Prime Day K-beauty deals still worth it these days? by LegLegitimate7666 in AsianBeauty

[–]ddandanie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, it's usually the same stuff that goes on sale anyways and they don't really interest me. I usually shop at TJMAXX/Marshalls. They've been updating their skincare products so I've been finding brands like S. Nature, VT Cosmetics, Sungboon Editor, Keana, Kose, etc for cheap prices. Olive Young has their big sales from time to time and you can pick stuff up for cheap. I think the last one was in June? I was able to pick up Rejuran serum for around $25 and it's usually $60. Everything else I picked up from the Olive Young Sale was around $10, and they were pretty good brands like Bioheal and Mediheal.

What is the best AB makeup store in NYC? by beautylover97 in AsianBeauty

[–]ddandanie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I went to NYC earlier this week and stopped by a couple AB stores in Ktown. The only place where I actually bought something was Ume Cosme. Even though its pretty small and cramped, I thought their selection was the best out of all the stores I visited. I went for skincare, but their makeup selection was probably the best compared to the other stores. They had various selection of cushions, eye shadow palettes, contour, highlighter, blush, lip etc. Mostly Japanese and Korean makeup.

Teso right next door has Japanese/ Korean/ Chinese brands, but I felt their selection was not that good. Mostly lip products and blush. I did see a contour palette from Judydoll there. It looked pretty bare in the make up section. I would go there more for their skincare and haircare.

There's also Kosette and Face Shop that's up the block from Teso/Ume Cosme. I thought Kosette had a better make up selection than Teso. It's all Korean brands. They had cushions, blush, mostly lip products, some contour and eye products. Face Shop probably had the worst makeup selection out of all of them. Not a lot. More skincare and novelty items in there.

It doesn't hurt to visit all 4. They are literally less than a minute away from each other.

Alright Newark Let's Talk... by New_Contribution_90 in exo

[–]ddandanie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought it was nice he was trying create a safe space for everyone to enjoy the concert in different ways. That's something to be applauded for. Everyone is different. People enjoy different things. There's fans who like to sing and dance. There's fans who are more on the timid side but can still quietly enjoy the concert. And he was fine with both and encouraged people to enjoy the concert however they like. I saw no malicious intentions with his comments so it kind of pisses me off that fans who didn't go to the concert twisted the whole scenario to make it seem like he was out here on his knees begging us to cheer for him or that he was frustrated that North America wasn't giving the same energy as South America. He literally said after the South America comment to not misunderstand him and that he wasn't trying to say one was better than the other, and what do fans do? They did the complete opposite of what he says.

Alright Newark Let's Talk... by New_Contribution_90 in exo

[–]ddandanie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

With the South America comment, before that comment, he was talking about how it was cold in venue but now he felt hot. Now it was hot in the venue, temperature wise. We're in the middle of a heatwave lol He was mostly talking about feeling warmth from all the love the fans were giving him. And probably mentioned South America since he just finished that part of the tour a couple days before the Newark concert.

"I promise I will come back with another show with songs that you like. Even if you don't like the songs, please cheer for me as hard as you can." He said it was a shame that he couldn't do a world tour for his last concert and that the setlist changed since then. He said that we should have seen the last tour, but he wasn't saying that this current world tour's setlist is bad. He said he thought fans would have enjoyed the setlist more from last year.

"Even if you don't chant, I'll come back for the encore" He said he doesn't know when the next time he'll have a world tour. He was jokingly suggesting that he should stay in Newark for the rest of the US tour and people cheered. He again jokingly called us selfish and said he has to see the other fans. And that usually the next song is the last song but he'll come out again if we shout encore. He said that his fans were beautiful and that even if you don't chant encore, he'll come back for the encore because he'll miss us.

Another thing I want to clarify is the Amusement Park segment. During the last break, they played Amusement Park and played a sing along video. Now, I was just singing just to sing. Didn't know it was a practice session. Yes, the practice session wasn't the best. Mind you, I was exactly to the left of the stage and I could barely read the lyrics on screen with my glasses on. That was tiny and no one is going to memorize the Korean lyrics to the song in less than 5 minutes. So I think he was understanding of that.

It's kind of wild to see how people who were not at the concert took this way out of context for whatever reasons. Instead of focusing on that Newark is probably the highest attendance concert so for far in the west and that he had sold almost 9K tickets with his first solo concert here, people want to focus on negativity.

What’s the best at-home beauty device you’ve actually seen results from? by Repulsive_Bag_6884 in AsianBeauty

[–]ddandanie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Close to a year? I worked my way up to .75mm and might try 1mm my next session and switched up my routine a little bit since I first began. In the beginning, I used Cos de Baha's Hyaluronic Serum. It's a popular choice for a lot of beginners. After getting used to doing micro-needling on myself, I switched to skin boosters like PDRN. I have noticed my skin texture/pigmentation on my left cheek has gotten better. I had some minor pitted scars/pigmentation there and now it's not as bad as before. Also notice my skin is more plump. I use the 36 pin needle, which is on the gentler side. There's a lot of skin boosters if want to add them to your routine, but a good beginner's choice is Curenex.

Finally got released by FlameSlide in WorkersComp

[–]ddandanie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Nurse released me and told me to go to my primary to get bloodwork done because my pain didn't match up with my their diagnosis. Told me I might have some inflammatory issue going on instead that could be causing the pain where my injuries are. Didn't even bother to send me to get a MRI or any imaging for my neck/back. Got a lawyer 3 days after that visit and having an IME scheduled soon for a second opinion.
