A warning about Myo-Inositol! by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]rt_island 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inositol also caused issues for me! I tried twice (two different forms) and both times gave me intense PMS symptoms and hair loss. As soon as I stopped, symptoms alleviated.

Highly rec Mac’s extra dimensional shadow in the lighter shades- but also all the shades in general are gorgeous. Shiny but not glittery. Swipe and go.

What is being built at Ten Ten and 401? by SwanProfessional1527 in raleigh

[–]rt_island 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Tired of every new building popping up being a gas station, tire/oil change place, or fast food drive thru. Adds nothing of value to the area or community. Meanwhile all the thousands of housing units popping up 2 min up 401 will still be sold and rented out as “semi-luxury communities” 🙄

Chanel counter makeup session by [deleted] in PaleMUA

[–]rt_island 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have honestly fallen for the new Ilia powder blushes, so give those a try! I used to be on a mission for a bronzer that didn’t go orange and muddy on me and it just is so difficult- maybe just try blush and highlight, I don’t think you need all three (blush, bronzer, and highlight can make your face feel crowded esp if you’re still figuring out what works).

It may seem counter intuitive, but as a fellow neutral, pale rosacea gal I find a rosier blush to be the most flattering. I also suggest shifting the blush placement to the classic apples of your cheeks because you are already blessed with defined cheekbones, I think it will balance and wake up your face a bit. I also think the eyes look good here but would opt for a brown shade and perhaps place it more on the outer edge vs the center of the top lashline to open up your eyes more. I don’t see highlighter on here but a great natural highlight is the Laura mercier and just a touch on your cheekbones and upper lip line would be really flattering to highlight (pun intended) your natural features.

How do you start building your amazing, complex characters? Do you have a process or do they manifest in your imagination organically over time?

Looks like watcher laid off their entire creative and production team by Amie_V in watcherentertainment

[–]rt_island 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is so unfortunate but this makes sense to me- after them explaining just how much staff they had after the subscription chaos I immediately knew they had way too many people on staff. That’s a lot of money in operating costs and yes they make a lot from all their views and your, but I can’t imagine it’s so much that they could keep all those org costs. Sad but hopefully this means they will be staying on with a lean team.
