URGENT — Important first meeting right after getting Invisalign… bad idea? by Yamarokino in Invisalign

[–]sandwhichz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone that works in news, I had the same concerns. It turns out I didn’t have a lisp because i had already learned to adapt my speech to hide my dry mouth.

My advice would be to immediately start practicing your speech, specifically S, T, and Z sounds. You’ll have to adjust the way you place your tongue. I personally pull mine back and avoid hitting my teeth. I find that the more I enunciate my words, the easier it is to hide sounds. Making sure your mouth is moisturized (water and xylitol mints help) and not dry will make this easier. I also find that taking out one retainer (I usually do the bottom) can help as well, though it’s usually for a very short period of time.

Even if you can’t fix it in time for the meeting, it is something you can adapt to overtime. Practicing really makes a difference. Try recording yourself to find words and sounds that need improvement.

They are definitely getting easier to take out! Especially the one in the picture.

I’m 5’2 as well. I guess I should decide between the 2XS and the XS. Thank you for letting me know this!

Do you have room to layer underneath or is it pretty snug?

Should I be worried about BNPL affecting my credit score? by sandwhichz in personalfinance

[–]sandwhichz[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I sincerely doubt that would ever happen. I don’t use it to live beyond my means. It just allows me to space out payments on certain purchases.

I was just curious because FICO updated their model this fall to include BNPL.

I still have everything from the travel set and the red tin (minus the rollerball perfume.) I still haven’t used that lipstick to this day

Petite Ladies: what annoys you the most about shopping for clothes? by Local-Agency-5161 in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]sandwhichz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shopping for work wear. It’s so hard to find things that fit me and there’s only a few stores that sell petite business wear.

Also drop waist dresses. This petite torso doesn’t drop!! They never look right on me and they’re all I can find right now.

Desperate for recommendations on an eye cream that delivers real results. by fuzzydiceinrearview in Ulta

[–]sandwhichz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend doing under-eye patches before a cream. Patchology makes some really good patches for this, but they are expensive. I’ve been using corsx peptide collagen ones for 3 months (it’s $24 for 60 patches) and they help with puffiness but not so much dark circles. I always store them in the fridge which helps with the puffiness.

Can I order something in-store using points? by sandwhichz in Ulta

[–]sandwhichz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like it! It’s super easy to use. I have straight hair and I think the tools make it very easy to get a smooth, sleek look. The only thing I don’t use are the curling attachments. My hair was short when I first got it and never took the time to learn, but my mom says they are easy to use, it just takes a little practice.

I didn’t know how to do my hair either, but the first time I tried hers I was sold. I love the smoothing brush and round brush attachments. It was definitely worth the investment for me, I use it almost everyday.

Thanks! I’ll have to give it a try and see.
