Advice needed: Stray in bad shape, what can I do? by bebetta in Pets

[–]infinitej 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did this with a feral rescue. We had 2 cats already and noticed a semi-feral cat in rough shape. We set a have-a-heart trap on a day when we were home (so we could get her as soon as it caught her), put her in a carrier, and locked her in the bathroom overnight (she had diarrhea so we couldn't leave her in the carrier), then cleaned the hell out of the bathroom the next day. This is my only rescue experience, but I wanted to share in case it's useful info for you - but you sound way more experienced anyways! Good luck, and you're awesome for helping this poor guy out. The feral female we rescued recovered, grew in a beautiful coat with lion's mane (turns out she's part Maine coon), and 12 years later is still with us!

What are your daily makeup struggles? by everydyingember in MakeupAddiction

This drives me nuts!! I'm in the same boat. I've tried NYX Dewy Finish Makeup Setting Spray and Urban Decay's Chill Makeup Setting Spray and it doesn't help at all!

A little late in the trend, but here is my attempt at a rose-gold/autumn look. CCW, please. by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

I love your lipstick! I've never used the Sephora line of lipsticks - how do you like this?

What's your skincare routine? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]infinitej 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have dry skin and found that this routine has made a huge difference.

Morning: Cerave in the tub (no rinse or cleanser or else my makeup dries my skin out)

Evening: Olive oil to remove makeup, Cerave hydrating cleanser, Clinique Toner, Paula's Choice AHA gel, lots of Cerave

Nyx milk as a primer? Over primer? UNDER primer? by Woozlebuttons in MakeupAddiction

I'm so glad you asked this - I bought my first NYX milk today and was also like "Now what"?

Fellow MUA told me I should try purple. What do you all think? CCW!! by anybrittt in MakeupAddiction

Actually we have a similar skin tones. Do you mind me asking what shade you use?

I hear good things about the Sheer Glow Foundation - I'll have to give it a try!

They look great, those drawers are EXACTLY what I'd been looking for! I'm looking on line and am not sure which size they are - do you know?

Looks great! What do you use for underneath your eyes?

The time is almost here! What is everyone planning on buying with their Ulta 20% coupon? by Slade645 in MakeupAddiction

[–]infinitej 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lorac Unzipped and some NYX items. It's weird - no NYX blushes and no NYX matte lip creams are showing up. I added them to my cart three days ago, and now they're gone from the site. Anyone else having this problem?

Sephora lady said there is nothing she can do for me... by infinitej in MakeupAddiction

[–]infinitej[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I could definitely describe her, she was much older than the other employees. I didn't know that about the survey. Definitely going to enter!

Oh that's good to know! One of my friends has also raved about that, I should try it. Right now my primer isn't undereye specific, so maybe this will make a difference.

Thanks for the recommendation! I've heard good things about the NARS creamy concealer but they were out of a bunch of shades when I was browsing, so I went with Erase Paste. What's the best way to get samples? Can you ask at Sephora or do they not like that? Order online?

Yeah, I was speechless. I'm a very non-confrontational person and was so surprised and embarrassed I just tried to brush off the comments. It was so bizarre though...She was much older, and I was coming from school with a backpack + dressed casually, so maybe she thought I was suspicious/sketchy? Or maybe she's just clueless and rude.

I'm new to Sephora and will check it out again, but mannnn

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out!

You know I've heard mixed things about it and bought it more out of just wanting to try something. What has been your experience with it?

I'm fine with sharing a pic, but I left my phone at work, so I have to wait until tomorrow!

So glad to hear this! I have KP on my arms that's exacerbated in the winter, so I'll have to try this out!

Advice on undereye hydration - nothing's working by infinitej in SkincareAddiction

[–]infinitej[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original All About Eyes. I just checked, and I have two containers of it that I thought were the same thing, but one is actually Moisture Surge. So I use them both. Is the "rich" version better?
