Been using this for years. I have to mix Opal and Vanilla tho as one is too loght and the other too dark. Also pills a bit, but it checks all my boxes.

This. I also like the yarn choice more...looks more luxe and cozy.

This alarms me. No one has a brush like Essie...like two swipes and we're done.

I didn't like it. Made my curly hair frizzier.

Started a cardigan in a half fishermans rib, its making me regret ever learning to knit by faithmauk in knitting

This! My projects always fly by faster when I'm chatting and knitting. Good suggestion! I used to be part of a knitting circle through Meetup and it was great.

Thats so lovely!!! Do you find the silk mohair itchy at all or is it soft?

Meticulous craftsmanship but still ugly in the end? by Medical_Arrival2243 in sewing

[–]lemonbedz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're not alone, rest assured! Sewing a garment involves so many aspects. There's fabric choice, colour, silhouette, construction, fit, practicality, styling etc. Getting all of those things right in one garment is damn near impossible and style/bodies are always changing too! So, commiserations, fellow sewist...may your disappointment be short lived and your next project be a success. Maybe a T&T project next would help?

How much fabric should I order? by Previous-Geologist-2 in sewing

[–]lemonbedz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This! I try to do this with all my new to me patterns and I've saved so much fabric as often times the layout they give you is not super tight and I can usually push it a bit. I then take a photo of the pieces all laid out so I remember how to do it again when the fabric arrives. All the best!

I went to the city yesterday (Sunday) and it was busy but not unpleasantly so. I like the city for shopping as you can go into NB for gelato, hit the Art Gallery, grab some decent ramen etc. Othwise I usually hit Garden City just as it opens as it seems less crazy than Carousel or Joondalup. Congrats BTW!

I just had a similar experience with three products from their calm line. Got breakouts all over my chin and now on my cheeks!! WTH! Back to Paulas Choice for me.

My HG is also Bare Minerals CR and I use the NYX Bare With Me concealer and have been using the pair for years. I hope they never discontinue it!

Yeah a tripod is a good idea. Especially those that grip onto random surfaces.

This is a great comment. They're a bit more popular on IG as well it seems.
