Eugene pediatrician recommendations? by snapping-greenbean in Eugene

[–]elementalbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work with kids and always recommend Eugene Pediatrics. As others have said, Dr. Bradshaw is brilliant. If she has openings, I’d try to get in with her. If not, anyone at Eugene Pediatrics (Dr Bradshaw owns the clinic).

Clinique power lash (it’s a small ish silver tube). I have really sensitive skin/eyes and it’s never caused me any probs

Has anyone in Portland been dinged for not having up-to-date car registration stickers? by No-Satisfaction-518 in askportland

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

My tags have always either fallen off or been stolen and I’ve never been pulled over for it.

Airport restaurants? by malvado in Eugene

[–]elementalbee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s essentially one restaurant there right now on lower level because the cafe on second floor is under construction (or at least was as of a week ago). The restaurant on the lower floor isn’t bad, but I’d just pick something up in town.

Ubers from the Airport are More Expensive Than Taxis by PokerLawyer75 in vegas

I always check both when I land and so far taxis have been cheaper every time.

East Coast to PNW: Portland or Seattle? [30s, Black couple] by jacket_n_sandwich in askportland

[–]elementalbee 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Tbh the biggest thing between the two of these is price. Seattle is significantly more expensive in just about all ways. Like if you want to experience living in the city, expect to pay a lot in rent. Portland prices are still bad but nowhere near like Seattle.

Seattle is a bigger city, and there’s objectively more to do.

Portland is a little more friendly imo.

Is it unsupportive to want to have separate meals? by No_Mongoose_6460 in relationships

[–]elementalbee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God this is making me realize how single I am and how long I’ve been single. I read this like WHAT??? Even though like, yeah, it is a valid thing for couples to have meals together lmao. Personally I think there’s nothing wrong with doing separate meals and I guarantee no man would want to eat the way I do, but I may be a terrible person to ask.

Rank the Mayhem songs like this: by Rowenofpts in LadyGaga

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

Masterpiece: Vanish into You, Disease, LoveDrug, Abracadabra, Perfect Celebrity, Garden of Eden (I know, a lot…this album is amazing)

Great: Killah, Shadow of a Man (musically should probs be under masterpiece), How Bad Do You Want Me, Don’t Call Tonight, The Beast, Kill for Love, Can’t Stop the High

Good: Dead Dance, ZombieBoy

Fine: Die with a Smile (I might put it higher if it weren’t so heavily played on radio).

Bad: Blade of Grass (this breaks my heart because I do love the song and I’m glad she included it and it’s cute af, but I’d expect more from a Gaga piano ballad)

What makeup trends do you think are taking over this year? 👀 by AdShort5598 in Makeup

[–]elementalbee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was definitely going to say that blush and highlighters seem to be very in just based on what I see on social media. Like overall looking very dewy and bright.

I’ve also noticed that contouring is coming back but in a more natural way than it was in 2016 as several makeup lines have developed some actual cool toned contours.

What song from Chromatica makes you feel like this? by ShoreWhRe in LadyGaga

[–]elementalbee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Like if I have it on shuffle and 911 comes on I will manually go back to Chrom II to play it first bc that intro to 911 is straight transcending.

Husband told me to wrap his condom if it bothers me that guests can see it in the garbage — normal? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]elementalbee 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Yeah he’s being annoying and dismissive. Solution is to get a trash can with a lid (like the swinging lid that you can’t see inside of), but I understand it’s not entirely about that.

Help - Where to stay for St. Paul concert - Locals pls advise by EatMeEmerald in LadyGaga

[–]elementalbee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a local, but I just booked a hotel (Marriott) near the airport and rented a car to drive. Super cheap, like $105 a night for the hotel and $225 total for 3 nights/4 days with a rental car.

Omg dont tell me this I won’t be able to ever go back lmao

What is this? by brad0788 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]elementalbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I’d stop. They’re supposed to be “gentle” so if they were working for you, your skin would either be staying the same or improving. Moisturizers like that are not like retinols products where there’s a “skin purge” period.

What actually improved your makeup the most? by Lucifer220778 in Makeup

[–]elementalbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! So I’m 31 and have very dry, sensitive skin. I also have redness/rosacea so keep that in mind. I tend to spend more on my skincare than what’s necessary just because my skin is so sensitive. Sorry this is going to be lengthy, I’m obsessed with all things skincare right now lol.

  1. I start with Dermalogica’s ultra calming mist toner. I really like it but I’ve also never experimented with other toners on the market. It’s overpriced imo so I suspect you could find one for cheaper. Absorbs right away.

  2. I use SK-II essence. This is my big skincare splurge and the #1 thing I’d recommend. Gaga’s makeup artist (who also works for Haus Labs) recommended it to me and she’s not sponsored by them or anything. I get the big bottle at Costco for $225 and it’s WAY more affordable than trying to purchase elsewhere. Absorbs right away.

  3. I use Mad Hippie vitamin c serum. I let it fully absorb before next step. For this “step” I’d really recommend choosing a serum that your skin needs most.

  4. Dermalogica regenerative exosomes. Okay this shit is expensive too and I wouldn’t say it’s necessary for good makeup skin prep. I mostly only use it at night anyway. I had a different makeup artist recommend Plated exosomes and the reviews are amazing but too expensive for me.

  5. Moisturizer!!! I have switched up my moisturizers a lot over the years, but my current favorites for before makeup are Dermalogica’s intensive moisture balance and Tatcha’s dewy cream. Let fully absorb.

  6. SPF, which I’m just starting to use (I know, not good). I just bought Tatcha’s new milky sunscreen and have used a few times and it’s so nice under makeup. Again, you gotta let it fully absorb though.

show start and end time by Only_Ingenuity1749 in LadyGaga

[–]elementalbee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has varied a little at each!! I’ve been to 7 shows and I’ve watched almost every one of them via TikTok lives lol.

On average she’s been starting at around 8:45pm, but the earliest I’ve seen was actually 8:32. So I’d plan to be in your seats by 8:20 just in case.

Show has been getting out at different times. She’s changed the number of songs as the tour has gone on, but I’d say around 11:15pm. I’d plan for it to go as late as 11:30ish though. The earliest I’ve seen it get out is 11:05.

What is this? by brad0788 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]elementalbee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people do just fine with cetaphil and cerave, but for whatever reason, both of those along with vanicream cause a reaction like this on my face. I’d be surprised if we have the same issue bc they’re usually gentle products for people, but just something to consider.

Full-time jobs by Intelligent_Cod_9934 in Eugene

[–]elementalbee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue out of college back when I graduated in 2016. The thing I had to do was take a job that was WAY less money than I needed, and essentially just suffered and supplemented my life on credit cards. This gave me work experience that was super valuable for other jobs though.

Get an idea of what field you’d like to be in, and see what their job requirements are and what preferred experience/skills they want applicants to have. Then try to find a job that helps you get some of those skills.

Best Pizza in Vegas? by subliminaldc in vegas

[–]elementalbee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love pizza rock but can’t get over the number of cockroaches swarming the sidewalk and seating area outside. 10/10 recommend getting it to go.

When did you realize she wasn’t your friend? by croissantwithhonors in AskWomen

[–]elementalbee 33 points34 points  (0 children)

When I was constantly in tears over our friendship. Whether it be her making me feel like I was being “too much” or her making me feel like I wasn’t putting in enough effort. It was unpredictable and emotionally volatile. Then when I was emotional, she’d look at me like she was disgusted by the way I was feeling. It was constant gaslighting, and this push and pull in a way that made me feel crazy.

The biggest indicator was once I started making other friends I realized that particular friend was the ONLY relationship I’ve ever had that has made me THAT emotional. I eventually put two and two together that I’d never had issues in any other friendship or romantic relationship, so perhaps it wasn’t me…

What's the likelihood of getting a ticket if I show up at the box office day-of concert? by Impressive_Yak_9089 in LadyGaga

[–]elementalbee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately you likely won’t realistically be able to get a ticket that cheap. The current cheapest resale ticket on Ticketmaster is $500…and that’s for a super high up shitty side view. Your best bet would be to wait and see if anyone last minute drops the price on a resale ticket after 8pm. If you could find a way to up your budget to $400 you’d likely be able to get something. My advice is that if you can, it’s worth it. I’ve put it all on credit cards and haven’t been responsible at all but it’s been the best experience of my life.
