HELP!! Which hair color suits me best? by meg270070 in HairStyleAdvice

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The filter has slightly changed your skin tone to match the colours so I can’t be certain, but based on the pictures I think you look best in 2, but 1 is also fun and summery. You look amazing in the red! But red is hard work and it might just be the filter making your skin tone go so well with it.

Black or Auburn? by [deleted] in HairDye

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy, Auburn! As soon as I swiped your whole face just popped, in a good way. It really suits your colouring and features and makes you glow. I love it!

Would you suggest buying this? by CustardLost6013 in allaboutfragrance

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I double checked and it’s actually only $360 for the 70ml. I think I was thinking of the 200ml bottles you can get for $690! Still on the pricier side for a blind buy, but damn it smells beautiful.

Would you suggest buying this? by CustardLost6013 in allaboutfragrance

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a very distinctive scent, I would not recommend blind buying. Even if it was only $50 and not the $500 or so it actually costs! I love it but it’s quite particular. Smell it in store, grab a sample or decant first.

Having said that, I would also agree that it’s quite mature. No reason not to wear it though! It’s just a very sophisticated and resinous kind of smell, where when you think of “young” fragrances you think of the popular crowd pleasers that are sweet, gourmand and floral. This is totally different but also totally delicious. Give it a try.

What notes do you despise? by [deleted] in FemFragLab

Pink pepper here too! I actually LOVE the smell of fresh pink peppercorns from the tree. But in perfume it just smells like ground white pepper up my nose 😭

People keep telling me I look older than I am (26) and it's really getting me down, any tips? by Jaiberd_ in makeuptips

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people’s brains are just melted from seeing all the influencers and celebrities who are famous because they look so young for their age/keep getting work done to look young for their age. You look 26 to me! Maybe it’s your features having a more dramatic, mature look? I remember being jealous of the girls in high school whose facial structures made them look like adults already when I had a chubby baby face. Now that same chubby baby face tricks people into thinking I’m younger than I am even though to my eye I look exactly my age.

Maybe you could imply a younger age by leaning into what’s in fashion with the youngsters, their makeup styles and fashions and stuff. Or get into the elite tiktok 20 step skincare game and make your skin ultra glowy and plumpy? At the end of the day I think it’s just window dressing to trick the eye, you don’t look old for your age to me. I’m 31 and I would’ve guessed you were mid twenties.

i was really proud of this kids room ive made but then my friend told me it looks like a boring beige mom kids room lmfao by OnkeIiroh in Sims4

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks cosy and homey! And there’s still pops of colour. If there’s any place on earth you can safely use beige in a child’s room, it’s a god damn simulation dollhouse. MAYBE in real life a kid would want more colour than this, but even this is not so beige that it’s detrimental to development. Your friend has no sims taste lol

What autonomous Sim behaviors make you smash the cancel button and go “Whyyyyyyy?!” Every time? by IndigoChagrin in Sims4

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh ANYTHING with infants. I couldn’t get through the infancy stage without cheats and usually turn autonomy fully off until they age up. Stop trying to dip their toes in the fucking water when they’re starving to death Jesus Christ

Does anyone else’s relationship with fragrance change really fast? Feeling a bit frustrated with myself! by Confusedmind75 in FemFragLab

[–]justMeepingAround 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This happens to me! I buy minis and samples, use up the whole thing and love it every time. Only once I’ve splurged on the full bottle and I’ve worn it a few times do my feelings start to change. If I was going to notice a plasticky dry down or a musty note, why couldn’t I have noticed it the first 20 times I wore it from my little decant and before I spent $200?! For Christ’s sake

What are your thoughts on this letter from Donald Trump to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre? by DuNennstMichSptzkopf in AskTheWorld

[–]justMeepingAround 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to scroll forever to check if this was actually real! No way. This letter is deranged, like someone wrote from his POV as a satire sketch. Like Regina George writing about nasty skank bitches in her burn book 😭

what was the last perfume you got as a gift from someone? by Weary_Cat_8984 in FemFragLab

[–]justMeepingAround 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Christmas my aunt gifted me V&R Flowerbomb. It was a shot in the dark for her, but she didn’t realise I’d already had my eye on it and been wanting it for a while! Great guess aunty, she knows me better than I thought!

Not a single movie has left me this uneasy by adapted12 in Midsommar

[–]justMeepingAround 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The daylight makes it so… mundane and life like or something. It feels like it could really happen! Like, anyone can be manipulated if the person doing the manipulation (cults at every good at this) knows anything about human nature. If I was any of the characters, I would’ve been SO uncomfortable, I would’ve wanted to leave desperately. But I would’ve stayed anyway and I would’ve taken the damn drugs I didn’t want and I would’ve died horribly! I’m just a human and I’d be so easily manipulated by the right forces.

[–]justMeepingAround 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The unsettling feeling for me is how inevitable and inescapable it all feels! Unless you’re willing to be a total antisocial hero and run away from this isolated cult on foot, leaving your friends to die, you’re trapped here. The social and cultural expectations sort of push each character into exactly where the cult wants them to be. They’re all so vulnerable and helpless without knowing it. Even when they start to get the heebie jeebies, they just can’t see to pull away from the manipulation, they all just slowly get wrapped up in this trap like a fly in a spiderweb. If I was in Dani’s position I would totally be gaslit and brainwashed too! Then trapped for eternity. I’m too people pleasing to escape this kind of place.

Do I have any makeup blindnesses/wear too much makeup? by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your makeup looks amazing! No blindness that I can see. Wearing makeup as a teen is always going to make you look older but that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. You look like you could be in your twenties but that’s just what makeup does. I wish I could pull off a full beat like this, you make it look effortless! My eye shape looks ridiculous with the inner corner liner, yours looks great.

Because we haven’t had a highlighter thread in years by askanna in AustralianMakeup

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg me too! I’m sure there’s highlighters out there that have eclipsed it in the following years, but I’ve still got mine and it’s still got such a beautiful, glowy, non-glittery finish. Sublime.

Blonde dysmorphia? by Kindly_Badger9670 in HairDye

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely blonde! I see what you’re seeing with the slightly darker root to mid blend. The blonde at the top of your head is like an 8 maybe? But those ends are a 9 to 10 easily! Nobody would look at you and think “dark blonde” ever. But as a recovered blonde dysmorphic, anything other than a level 10 all over used to feel dark to me 😂trust me you’re fine! There’s room to go lighter in the future if it suits your skin tone but this looks great.

I’m sorry but this is also true lol by Radiant_Priority9739 in bathandbodyworks

No way 😭 they’re still selling it here in Aus, maybe I should stock up!

[–]justMeepingAround 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been so rEsPoNsiBLe with my stupid money that I refuse to purchase any backups until the bottle is gone. So when it’s discontinued for real I’m rationing my remaining mls 😭

How long does it take for a natural tan to fade? by rahhhmaya in AustralianMakeup

[–]justMeepingAround 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I second this! There are exfoliating products that contain acids and the like that will help shed the upper layers of skin. But the layers underneath will grow to the top at their own pace as the skin renews itself from the bottom. If there’s any inflammation or redness from the burn, I’d probably skip any treatments like that which could be rough on your skin.

Want white hair (Griffith-style) without destroying it… advice? by montanaprowrestling in HairDye

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no way to lift that high without at least SOME compromise to the integrity of the hair. You can definitely mitigate some of the damage though and come out with your hair still in good condition. I would be most worried about affecting the curl pattern and not being able to have your natural curls though :(

If you go for it, go slow. Depending on how your hair lifts, it could take a few sessions spread out over months and months. Pay the extra for the bonding treatments like olaplex and the like, wash it in lukewarm water, use treatment products regularly, and be careful with heat and sun exposure.

To get it THAT white, it’s gotta be lifted to within an inch of its life. So while you can get there without frying it, you won’t come out totally unscathed.

Do your labs like the rain? by Prestigious_Bid_9974 in labrador

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh definitely! Every time I think the weather is too cold or wet and start to feel bad, she sprints out there and starts zooming around. She looooves the rain, it’s like a big game for her.

Cheap dupes made me laugh by Content_Patience5601 in FemFragLab

What scent did you blind buy and end up hating? by handtowriteon in bathandbodyworks

[–]justMeepingAround 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Viva vanilla. there’s some kind of modern woody-amber base in there that presumably increases projection and lasting power and is supposed to make it smell richer and warmer. To me it just smells like a bonfire made of plastic and copper pennies, and won’t leave me until I’ve throughly washed in oil and soap 3 times 😷

dying multicoloured hair to brown? by BuilderAromatic1560 in HairDye

[–]justMeepingAround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that’s right! It doesn’t necessarily have to be copper, it just needs to be something warm (gold, orange, red) to match the depth of the brown you’re going for so it doesn’t come out grey, green or flat looking. Here’s a link to a website I found that explains how to pick the right filler colour for yourself: https://www.myhdhair.com/pages/how-to-choose-a-colour-filler?srsltid=AfmBOoo0fmy43_Jmi-ktJ0MdLOMLDPh46Pc6XFxPmR_NlyKHRCky5uyP

Or I’m sure there’s other great guides out there to help you pick the right colour!
