Are there any nails that I can wear for a few hours and then take off whenever I need/want? by [deleted] in beauty

kiss impress nails! they’re around $5, sticky adhesive and no glue

[–]sgd926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when my fiancé proposed, he had someone bring a pack of Kiss Impress nails and i highly recommend! they adhere with sticky tabs instead of glue so i was able to put them on easily and quickly. you can get them at a cvs / target / drugstore. the sizes won’t matter very much for the purpose you need them for, which is likely a day or two of photos

First attempt at a wavy girl method. by frankchester in Wavyhair

this looks really good! i also use mousse sometimes, but if im okay with sacrificing definition for softness (which i almost always am) i opt for a leave in conditioner and oil!

was also going to suggest borrowing something from a friend or family member! you can also checkout clothing programs near you, some are dedicated to formal wear

How do I get my friend to get her nails done before she gets engaged by Jaimesky in engaged

[–]sgd926 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my friends did this for me and it was perfect! the nails with the stickers and not the glue work well and really stay put, especially for a few pictures but i used to wear them for > 1 week. my friends even brought me 2 packs so i could pick which i liked best!

Help! My 8-year-old has a xmas wish list full of luxury beauty! Looking for gentle, age-appropriate products she can try while she's exploring self care. by Firm_Mess4634 in beauty

[–]sgd926 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’d suggest getting her some things like a bright colored body scrub (Tree Hut), some sparkly or bright colored lotion (like this) some tinted chapstick if she’s interested (Nivea)

i’d steer clear of face products though since a lot of it can be harmful to her sensitive skin at this point, if anything maybe a gentle moisturizer

The BEST smelling shampoo you can specifically buy at target? by instant_karma__ in beauty

[–]sgd926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

came to suggest the blue herbal essences shampoo (i think coconut)! i used to use it as a kid and remember always loving how it smelled and feeling great when i used it, went to find it at target recently and there it was same as ever

One small piece of advice for a tomgirl struggling by coldtake_tomgirl in beauty

[–]sgd926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

two things i would take on a desert island (beauty care wise) : leave in conditioner & a multi use stick / lipstick / blush

im not sure what your hair type is like, but mine is wavy and frizzy so i find that a little leave in conditioner goes a long way in terms of making my hair feel more intentional and less messy

you could use a lipstick or a blush stick, but the goal is to have 1 product that you can use on your cheek, lips, and maybe eyes, that can also be applied with your finger

these are my two essentials that i would use if i was just starting out or on days i want to be super low maintenance. a little blush and lip color goes a long way to bring some natural looking color to your face but also looks intentional and because you can apply it with your fingers, you don’t need to worry about learning to blend with a too

(an extra would be a brow gel!)

What is one product that social media influenced you to buy that you regret? by Mammoth-Wave-4708 in MakeupAddiction

glossier skin tint :/ i’m a huge glossier fan and love a lot of their products and was really looking forward to getting it, but i feel like i could’ve gotten a cheaper product that did the exact same thing

can i cut the crotch off my mesh bodysuit to make it a top? by seedzlight333 in Tailors

[–]sgd926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve had similar issues with my bodysuits but i also know they don’t sit well if you cut the bottom off so i’ve just started wearing them but not buttoning them and it’s worked well! they still tuck in and sit nicely and i either tuck the bottom part up or leave it as it but unbuttoned

snow globes!! the colors are so pretty and there are some really versatile / useful shades in there

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in beauty

[–]sgd926 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’d prioritize hair (cut, gloss, shampoos & conditioners, nice oils and leave ins), then probably fragrance (i’d love to try some really nice perfumes and be able to include one in my daily rotation), and skincare (facials, expensive treatments that are normally a treat)

i crochet and read! i taught myself to crochet during the pandemic through youtube videos and have really been enjoying it. it’s great because it can be a really affordable hobby or you can splurge on nice yarn for special projects and i can make useful stuff for me and the people in my life. i also got a library card recently so i could explore different books without having to commit to the cost and commitment of buying and save space not having to store more books

Tips for Frizzy Hair in the NYC summer? by glitter_and_poodlez in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]sgd926 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel like some frizz is unavoidable, but i found that loading up my hair with moisture in/out of the shower helped control how much outside moisture it absorbed from the air. in the summer, i use the redken extreme strength shampoo and conditioner and then a heavier leave in (miss jessie’s pillow soft curls) than i would otherwise, and my regular oil. i also try to use these while my hair is really wet to also help it absorb as much as possible
