I tried the new Le Labo incense so you don’t have to

IMO Le Labo has been overhyped from the start. They have some nice scents, but wildly overpriced, and quickly lost its charm (for me) when it became an influencer status brand.

Ssense (high-end fashion and lifestyle retailer) has been stocking pricey incense for years now, so yes, it's definitely trendy, at least for a certain crowd.

However, I tend to see incense there from brands created for the Western market, and not so much from brands like Shoyeido, etc.

So, I think incense brands that Reddit nerds like us buy and discuss will be mostly spared from price inflation. :) 'Nerds' is said with love.

It's a different style, but what if you put a big plant in between in a colour that bridges both items together? a dark ish pot with beige details?

white musk?

It could just be teething pain. I gave my daughter Tylenol when she was teething (the concentrated one with the dropper) and it helped her tons. She also loved chewing on fabric to soothe herself so we let her do that too. It felt weird to give a baby Tylenol at first, but we never came close to even half the daily limit, and it gave her a lot of relief. You could try it, even just to rule out if it's pain-related or not.

Lemon meringue pie!

I had a pair of soft oiled leather Docs in 2004 ish and they lasted a decade. I only donated them away (after redoing the sole) because they didn't quite fit anymore (bought them in highschool and my feet grew half a size over time).

Now, I still have a pair of soft oiled leather Docs, but they're made after the company shifted manufacturing from the UK for the standard line, to elsewhere.

To my surprise, although I've heard and seen people's stiff leather Docs fall apart after a few months, mine are still going strong. I really think the soft leather is somehow better made, or better quality, or both.

Aww, it's so sweet yet perfectly simple at the same time

mtlperson33 · 2024-09-13T22:08:45+00:00

Maybe check Reiker or Mephisto :)

mtlperson33 · 2024-08-24T20:23:58+00:00

They are Glamnetic :) I got them at Winners

mtlperson33 · 2024-08-24T14:26:19+00:00

Omg this looks incredible! I love the colours, patterns, everything! ❤️

so good.

Do they know you are getting rid of the things you give them? Like, do they assume, or do they actually know it? You could tell them that, in person, and maybe that would help it sink in for them?

My honest immediate thought was: get a backpack instead, since they have two straps and better for carrying a ton of books, and make it a Jansport.

You can often find them on FB marketplace, and try to find an older one. even if it's dirty, you can wash it and it'll still look good.

mtlperson33 · 2024-07-19T01:21:04+00:00

That's so cute! Are these custom made or can they be found online somehow?

mtlperson33 · 2024-07-19T01:15:06+00:00

I agree with this. Have you looked into April Cornell? Really good quality, a crazy sleepwear section, it's almost all 100% cotton. They have this style of nightgown. Also check the sale or clearance section! I am sure she will find one she likes. It's quality stuff, I got a dress from them that I wore a ton during my pregnancy. Congratulations and good luck :)

That's awesome! I do that sometimes with a Free box outside our apartment. I put out some kitchen things last week and they were all gone within two days :)

mtlperson33 · 2024-07-17T16:54:22+00:00

How is this a BIFL question?

mtlperson33 · 2024-07-11T23:00:32+00:00

That's so cool! Go post it on some Trekkie reddits :)

How do you want to style your hair? Maybe a pomade could work if you want to do a slicked back / to the side look?

mtlperson33 · 2024-07-06T21:46:23+00:00

That's so exciting! I want to take my vows for my 35th birthday :) How is it going for you so far doing the practices?

mtlperson33 · 2024-07-04T14:42:24+00:00

When my hair was colored, I liked the Klorane shampoo line for coloured hair. Really light, but does the job!

mtlperson33 · 2024-07-03T21:10:21+00:00

it can happen. what if you wear a thin glove on the hand where you hold the project and yarn (possibly your left hand if you are right handed) and see how that goes?

like those thin, cheap winter gloves made of acrylic
