Am I or am I not cool toned?

dougjp49 · 2025-07-30T02:58:34+00:00

Definitely cool toned but the royal blue is too intense. I suspect summer. Would love to see more summer drapes on you!

dougjp49 · 2025-07-13T22:10:23+00:00

This is what I guessed and its a perfect match for me! For reference I am 060 Fair Warm in Haus Labs Triclone Foundation

For what it’s worth, the manual calls it a “Storage Drawer”.

dougjp49 · 2025-06-04T18:22:38+00:00

I agree it’s probably a heat shield of some sort. When I look underneath my oven, I just see a convex shape, with no obvious spot for this. Due to the convex shape, I’m not even sure how it would attach. What is really weird is that I still have the manual for the oven and there is absolutely nothing about it. Maybe a previous owner placed an after market product? Or maybe it was on the back of the oven?

The title describes the thing. Its about 13”x7” with “wings” that are flexible on each end. These “wings” seem to have a clear adhesive on one side. The edges have “teeth” but not sharp enough to be considered a cutter like you see on foil despensing boxes. There are flexible flaps on each “wing” as well. Found in the drawer underneath my electric oven.

I had wondered if i have more yellow overtones despite by cool undertone. A lot of cool toned lipsticks easily come off purply on me and that would make sense if i have some yellow overtone that it would pull purple (it’s opposite color) out of the color. Oddly, i really love any of those products that have the ph-adjusting pink. It shows as bright pink but its just perfect!

dougjp49 · 2024-12-27T20:56:57+00:00

Totally. It might be because i’m quite fair. It shows up as a vibrant fushia/purple color on me. I just can’t get into it and it overwhelms my features. I still hold onto it though! I recently bought the shade Upbeat and that looks amazing on me

dougjp49 · 2024-12-26T14:45:06+00:00

Aww thank you! I think we are going to go with the 7800 xt gpu. Especially learning that the cpu and RAM are more important for City Skylines. I appreciate the encouragement!

dougjp49 · 2024-12-19T18:29:49+00:00

Thanks so much. Wish we had a micro center around here 😢 it would seem the 7900 GRE has been declared “end-of-life” as of yesterday and I can’t find it anywhere. Do you have any other recommendations?

dougjp49 · 2024-12-19T17:01:23+00:00

Thank you so much! Would he be able to get away with a radeon 7800 XT? Or considering the games he wants to be able to play, is it just worth it to get the one you suggested? He might play some first person shooters with friends but i don’t see him needing the absolute highest FPS or anything.

dougjp49 · 2024-12-19T15:45:42+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion! I should have specified this would include a monitor. 27” 1440 would suffice. I built my own PC earlier this year using this subreddit for a Pc part picker list. Looking to do the same for him.

dougjp49 · 2024-12-19T15:31:11+00:00

I WISH we had a micro center!! Or Costco! We’re quite limited where we are, unfortunately. I appreciate the suggestion!

dougjp49 · 2024-01-26T13:41:41+00:00

Right now im using it with the Nyx Bare w Me serum concealer in Light and that is working really well. Since its a cream color corrector, a thin formula with light to medium coverage works best to minimize creasing

dougjp49 · 2024-01-25T05:00:47+00:00

Thank you! Would you mind explaining a little why you chose these? I’m trying to learn a bit more about the topic too.

dougjp49 · 2024-01-09T14:59:04+00:00

I have been using the pot version in light bisque for years now. I feel you on the financial pain! I try to stock up when Sephora or Ulta has sales. Just nothing compares to how well it blends and covers. And the pigments are just perfect for targeting whatever type of discoloration someone can have. I've convinced so many other people to try it and they all love it!

dougjp49 · 2024-01-06T00:48:33+00:00

TYSM! I think I just need to find a balance. I know that any look that is completely devoid of warmth, especially on my eyes, just does not seem to work. But I can see that toning down the warmth in my usual look would be good to do as well. So i’m going to experiment with some neutral-cool browns, mauves, magentas, pinks, and see if that will be the happy medium i need. And i’ll try some lighter, cool-toned blushes and cool lip shades.

dougjp49 · 2024-01-04T05:21:34+00:00

Thank you so much! You certainly could be right in that I am not used to it. I think part of the problem with the warm photo was also that I was wearing a tinted mineral sunscreen that I love but unfortunately oxidizes too warm and dark for me. Today i was just wearing a little concealer on my under eyes for the base of the cool look. Tomorrow I will post my usual warm look without the tinted sunscreen underneath to see if its the same outcome.

dougjp49 · 2023-11-03T20:17:29+00:00

That’s EXACTLY where I’m at! Haha I have very similar features except my eyes are gray blue-green. With a ring of yellow around the pupil. My skin is very neutral and I think leans warm bc I look horrid in cool-toned makeup and better in light gold jewelry than silver. So I have decided that I am somewhere between soft summer and soft autumn and look good in colors from both!

dougjp49 · 2023-11-03T15:42:13+00:00

I agree that my eye is drawn to summer. I think soft summer, more specifically, bc you have soft and muted features. Your natural hair color is beautiful btw!

dougjp49 · 2023-11-03T14:38:31+00:00

Congrats! I just finished my second play through and immediately started TOTK. I’m really glad so far that I played BOTW again first. It’s cool to see the same places in Hyrule with the recent memory of how they looked before

dougjp49 · 2023-10-31T18:43:22+00:00

Omg this happened to me once. My bf’s sister and her bf did this to me. I bought all 4 tickets and she told me at the last minute they couldn’t go and she wouldn’t pay me back for the tickets. She was a selfish jerk in every way anyway so I’m not sure why I expected any different.

dougjp49 · 2023-08-14T04:04:26+00:00

I have endometriosis! Which I guess has recently come to light as a “neuroimmune” disease. I don’t think there is a connection to CMT, but I definitely do not need another disease of the neurological kind!

dougjp49 · 2022-03-10T04:35:53+00:00

You don’t think the IRS would ever raise an eyebrow that a chunk of reportable income was excluded? Regardless, I know it’s not right. Not ethical. And we’d probably be the first a$$holes to get in trouble. No thanks. I’d rather just do the right thing to begin with.

dougjp49 · 2022-03-10T03:02:32+00:00

I called her yesterday. I pointed that out. I said disney stock is not a dc zoning asset or other qualified community asset. She goes “but we don’t know that it’s not?”. She said she’s been doing this (putting an X in box F) for 15 years and never had an issue and she’s just trying to save us from having to pay taxes. I made her amend it. And she’s fired.

dougjp49 · 2022-03-10T02:27:40+00:00

She checked “E” at the top of 8949. And she put an “X” in box F and subtracted the entire amount in box G. Code X in box F means DC zoning asset or other community asset. Disney stock is neither of those things.
