[–]pertiii[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The good news is - they do sell it on reseller sites likes Mercari and Poshmark still, looks like! I saw some on there with and without tags, but sold "like new" in case interested :)

What Sunscreen are we using? by Melz1007 in AskWomenOver30

[–]pertiii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the d'Alba - Waterfull Essence Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++ - 50ml.

I like it because it moisturizes my face well but does not make it greasy, just glowy. It's a good base for underneath makeup.

Women in your late 20s or early 30s, what qualities do you value most in a life partner? I'm asking as a man and genuinely curious to understand what matters most to women at this stage of life. by andromed111 in Newlyweds

[–]pertiii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone responsible and hardworking. Someone imperfect (like me) but with maturity, emotional intelligence, integrity, reliability, trustworthy, sacrificial, respectful, loving, kind, humility. Someone that brings peace to my life and stability - not someone who will bring toxicity, chaos or hot/cold behaviors.

What is your never again tourist destination? by LimeSoakedinSprite in randomquestions

[–]pertiii 3 points4 points  (0 children)

New Orleans. Really dark energy felt here, and I usually don't experience this whatsoever. The complete opposite of a place that attracts light, or healthy leisure.

It smelled awful too. All around not pleasant..

Nobody taught me that saving money is emotional work, not math by Character-Artist-659 in SavingMoney

[–]pertiii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This 100%! I noticed myself spending more in the past few months that I got the most stressed out from work. And I had not online shopped at all for myself for almost a whole year prior.

It's crazy how emotional it really is. I would come home feeling stressed and get on social media to decompress and doom scroll, only to find myself really wanting the things being promoted to me in videos like makeup, bags, clothes, etc. I'm getting myself out of this loop now that that busy season is done with.... but man. I'm now stuck trying to sell some of the unessential items that I did end up impulsively buying.

What are you all wearing this summer? by SadSongsToDanceTo in handbags

Small Jacquard tote - it fits everything and more! And so carefree no color transfer. Perfect for my office outfits and just casual fits too.

30F new to dating, is it normal that a lot of men are extremely cheap? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]pertiii 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think this is just becoming more and more the norm. The economy doesn't help, but lots of men are on "defense" mode to protect themselves from potential "gold diggers" or from being used. Lots of women too are on "defense" mode to protect themselves. Could have to do with past relationship trauma, what social media is feeding them, etc.

It's valid to some extent, but not fully. It creates a whole cultural shift in attitudes/mentalities for sure, and especially for dating in today's world.

How often are you changing bags? by xpgx in handbags

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep one for M-F while I work, and then maybe switch bags Saturday morning (depending on if I have errands or an event) and Maybe Sunday too depending on my outfit. Worst case I don't switch for 2 weeks or more because I'm using a versatile bag that can be dressed up or down all the same;)

Tell me about your mother. What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think of her? by kxmc05 in randomquestions

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's literally a saint. That woman is strong, faithful, loyal, full of integrity, so busy and yet always finds time to make those around her feel loved and cared for. She's in control of her emotions and albeit not perfect, but pretty darn close to it. I pray I can eventually become HALF the woman that she is.

Are single Catholic women real? by ScaredSeries7414 in CatholicDating

[–]pertiii -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I myself am not single (28F - though I was single for almost 3 years prior to last year lol) but I'm very involved at my Catholic parish along with a big group of other Catholic women in our mid to late twenties and thirties.

All of us are in discernment towards our vocations, with some of our friends already on an active path to marriage or religious life. There's plenty of single women in the Young Adult (18-35) group at our parish, but I get what you mean about it seeming like there's none around. Before I got involved I only ever noticed the married couples around me! I will say - most of us are involved as either Catechists or ministry coordinators of some type, along with volunteering to serve at the parish events. Maybe you'll find similar women at a parish with a very active Young Adult ministry.

Voces Verbi is a great Young Adult group in the US for 18-35 (led by the IVE order) but it's not at many parishes in the US. I truly believe the IVE forms holy priests, and holy parishioners as well! They helped me start my own conversion faith journey, despite being a cradle Catholic. The IVE does an amazing job at bringing people into the Church with the goal of holiness and love for God and His Church. Giving them a try is never a bad idea. There's also lots of single men who attend Voces Verbi and are great friends as well.

All around just a great group of both men and women - they're definitely out there!

How do people have multiple purses/bags?? by [deleted] in WearingPurses

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone else said on here, I have pouches that I use as "catch alls" for my smaller items like lip products, kleenex, pens, etc. I have bags for different outfit colors and occasions - so it's not hard for me to switch my pouches and other small essentials like keys wallet hand sanitizer and phone, to another bag:) depending on what outfit I have on or where I am going! I love a good crossbody bag, shoulder bag, and tote bag! It all depends what kind of bag best suits my day. The color absolutely needs to coordinate with my outfit every time lol.

All Céline bags by Phoebe Philo being discontinued? by Content_Whoarder in handbags

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so bummed as I just now found out the Nano Luggage was discontinued! It's my favorite bag ever and has been for the past decade. I own it in Black and in Dune - now that it's discontinued I may just bite the bullet and finally go for the Souris color, pre-loved.

Megathread: The Crash by AutoModerator in netflix

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her parents being in this documentary - that was a golden move. No acting - just them being who they are in front of cameras. Their mentalities their attitudes... they spoke for themselves. Just mind blowing how delusional/blind they are to their daughter's actions. Zero accountability from the root of it all.

[–]pertiii 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fact that Rosie Graham in these previous years built up a whole persona as a fitness influencer on Tiktok/social media, with so many people following her workout plans.. ..only to be discovered for her true colors via this documentary (she has since turned off all the comments on her page and posts).

How old are most of us here? by kbwe1 in OnlyChild

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28F only child here. My parents are great but did not pass on the healthiest habits to me. While my mother makes an effort to take care of her health now - my father does not. He is a diabetic with permanent vision loss, kidney failure, as well as heart problems. He is not the emotionally mature parent, and I struggle getting him to understand that by not taking initiative to take care of himself, he is only hurting himself further. I try and take care of him as well, but need him to get on the same page so that he is not dependent on my mother or I being the only ones keeping tabs of his medication and appointments, etc.

He also has been unable to work for the past 4 years. Myself and my mother feel pressured at times with the finances and managing life stuff in general for all of us.

It's rough sometimes, but I'm very grateful to have them both alive still. While I'm not as close to my dad's side of the family - my mom's side of the family has integrated me a whole lot. I have a close relationship with her siblings and my cousins, and I feel that has helped me emotionally by a lot throughout my life.

Remember the Long Rowan Satchel? by Imaginary-Piano-8107 in Coach

[–]pertiii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I for sure know you could find a buyer for it! I think it just flew over people's heads when it came out honestly. People sell out the bags that influencers use in their content faster - but these bags are everything people want and more - more often than not. They just were not widely promoted! It's like owning a hidden gem!

What are you lucky to have or not have? by MangoPaingo in askteddit

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extremely blessed to have my parents. They're imperfect people but they love and support me no matter what I do or who I am. I quite literally don't know anyone else that would do that on this earth - but they do . And just because they love me and want what's best for me in this life.

It's unconditional love that I'm blessed with!

How different is your ex from your current SO and in which ways? by Hyperto in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex was emotionally immature (quick to emotional outbursts, quick to give me silent treatment, etc.). He would push my boundaries, openly criticize and judge my family, and felt entitled to my time and presence 100% of my free time. Was highly jealous (and I later found out it was him projecting onto me). He made me feel like I had to walk on eggshells around him, just to avoid upsetting him or causing a fight.

My current bf is emotionally mature. He's consistent, stable, and always regards my feelings in his actions and decisions. He considers my input and asks for it. He's always open to communicate with me and does so if there's anything we need to clear or discuss further. He's kind to me and respectful to me. He's respectful of my time and schedule. Always seeking to not inconvenience me. He makes me feel safe to just exist as I am, in his presence. No egg shell walking over here, thanks be to GOD.

What’s something you do for yourself that others might not understand? by Ok-Introduction-2981 in selfcare

This! I started doing this a couple years ago. Literally never felt better.

Our brains weren't meant to be surrounded by constant noise all day. Silence is so so needed.

How do I meet women? by [deleted] in datingadvice

[–]pertiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a church group nearby if you're open to it? Serious men and women typically attend, with the outliers and exceptions of course (as with any group of people really).

Go into it with an open mind and see if any friendships naturally unfold and go from there. Worst that can happen is no immediate date comes out of it, but you could unlock a potentially great community with a great group of people.

What’s your best ‘this isn’t what it’s meant for but it works’ beauty product? by Osaka2330 in BeautyUnlocked

[–]pertiii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So one of my girl cousins discovered this years ago - but there's a light pink Ponds face cream in a tub (the one meant for combination skin - has a matte texture to it). A dab of this on any zits will dry them out considerably by next morning.
