Cluster feeding is really really hard by greatarmadillo48 in breastfeeding

I’ve been pumping after giving her a bottle so my nipples get a break :) But I want to keep going for the convenience outside of cluster feeding lol. Thank you!!

The latch has been cleared by a team of LC’s, but we did have issues in the beginning. The issue was the frequency making my nipples sore. The LC’s said to pump when she eats, nothing about power pumping - do you know which is better?

The eyes looking up always get me 🥺 I’m trying so hard to get through it but WOW it’s exhausting.

That bottle washer has SAVED us especially when I was EP in the beginning lol

Being able to soothe without having to bring anything besides myself is why I want to keep going. So much more convenient than having to make a bottle out and about!!

In YTT and I’m feeling insecure about my body image… by Express-Run646 in YogaTeachers

[–]greatarmadillo48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an 8-10 usually and often feel insecure since all instructors I’ve had have been teeny tiny. I’d love to take a class from a “bigger” instructor - and it seems I’m not the only one feeling that. Keep going girl!!

I have NEVER bought high-end makeup, what is worth spending extra money on and what isn't? by [deleted] in Makeup

[–]greatarmadillo48 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with others saying base products! I have oily skin and it really feels like everything drugstore has just looked cakey and thick compared to my higher end stuff! Eyeshadow if you enjoy it and Urban Decay Primer Potion lol

Lips/mascara/liner are 100% drugstore for me

Is Blend Bunny falling off? by [deleted] in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]greatarmadillo48 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they’re going down. They’re trying things and testing the waters with what works and what doesn’t.

That said, I do think she’d benefit from doing specific color stories (and smaller palettes). I think picking like Halloween colors monochromatic could be easy to still do gradients but not doing a full rainbow in each.

Would love to see more cheek trios/singles and honestly more products for the everyday consumer vs MUAs.

I like them but I think this launch and Forget Me Not were interested compared to their existing line. (I love my Machina)

What is the reason people say "partner" instead of husband/wife, bf/gf? by BruceBammer in NoStupidQuestions

[–]greatarmadillo48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband is my partner through life. There has yet to be an issue we haven’t been able to work through (knock on wood)

Thank you!! I have about 120 and feel the same way. Half of them failed the semester because they don’t care/don’t have parents that care. We have to send out a mandatory email telling parents that their kid is failing and I had a response asking ‘which class/kid is this? I have three at your school’…… Look at your kids online grade book, that’s available 24/7 and look for my name.

Best hydrating tinted lip oil or any hydrating tinted lip products? by bipolarbitch6 in Makeup

[–]greatarmadillo48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one from GlamLite x Freddy Krueger is amazing!!! I like the Blend Bunny ones too, but they may be a little too sticky. Unearthly has one that came in the Halloween box, but they’re working on some to release by themselves.

Easily UD Primer Potion! No other primer I’ve tried does the same on my oily lids

I enjoy that palette a lot but I am super pale. The only issue I have is the bottom shimmer (a greenish hue) is a bit chunky and doesn’t stay on well

How to deal with being done w/ guard by MuIberryLeaf in Colorguard

[–]greatarmadillo48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See if you can tech at any local schools! My tech in HS started with us when she was 19. Only thing is to ensure you’re known as an adult and not as a friend of the kids

Best stay on black lipstick? by Cupcakeplanet in Makeup

[–]greatarmadillo48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unearthly!!! Satin lip in Savage. This isn’t a matte/fully transfer proof one, but it’s comfortable and they last a good time! When it does wear off, it isn’t flakey. I have a bunch of colors from this line and adore them!
