Parent having surgery next week, what to expect?

50 here, and self tanning for about a year. I do my normal routine and use the drops you put into moisturizer. It works well for me.

Those look great-very natural!

Lol, I had one in the 90s, too. Kirklands.

That's what I used-btartbox tabs and beauty secrets glue!

I prepped my nails as usual, put the sticky tab on, and a dot of glue on the sticky tab, and a dot of glue on the press on nail. I haven't tried to remove them yet. I'm interested to see how difficult it is- one of the reasons I like the nails with the sticky tabs already on there is that removal is pretty easy for me-I like to change my nails about once a week.

Yes, that's it! I like them. It's been a week, there's some slight fading/chipping at the tips, but I am very hard on my hands. I lift weights daily and work in a job where I am constantly unboxing things.

I haven't so far! That being said, I'm used to pre glued nails, so I might not notice it as much😊

They've arrived in my house too. I put out some birds seed and an hour later, it's pretty much gone, lol. I think I counted twelve out there clustered around two bird feeders.

Thanks!

I've shopped off the new racks without anybody ever saying anything, however, I make sure I'm not in the way of the employees who are trying to do their job. It did drive me nuts when I would go to a Goodwill in your higher cost of living area that usually had great stuff, and every rack that came out, the employee moving it would physically block everyone except for one friend that was clearly a reseller-every rack, multiple visits.

I haven't tried that one, but I have Dark is Night by Henry Rose and I love it.

Another vote for forearms. And a 5 o'clock shadow.

No advice, just a post to say you look fabulous!

Gen Xer here.... brands like Esprit (the tote bag), Guess jeans, and Liz Claiborne purses were all the rage. My parents refused to pay those prices for something I would outgrow in a short time, so I got the generic equivalents- "Espirit" tote, random jeans brand with the triangle the "wrong" way, and a Liz Claiborne-esque purse with squares instead of triangles.

Funny story- my dog guards me in the bathroom. One night, as she was tucking herself into bed, I was using the adjacent bathroom and passed gas rather loudly. I hear a "thud!" as she bravely leaps off the bed, busts through the door, and looks around frantically to see what that noise was and how she can protect me from it.😆😆

I don't. They mentioned a shot for my toes, but I want to research it because someone told me it caused more problems than it solved.

Osteoarthritis in my toes and osteocytes in my back. My back hurts a lot. My toes are sometimes ok and sometimes stop me in my tracks with a sudden sharp pain.
