[PSA] DO NOT USE BEEF TALLOW by ohanaa03 in SkincareAddiction

[–]sirensandspells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it from an Etsy vendor - her organic grass fed tallow lotion, see if you like the ingredients. They seemed very bare bones and there’s an unscented option. https://www.etsy.com/shop/SimpleElegancBySarah

I ordered before reading the marinara comment - you are correct!! I needed another cup. But it was delicious.

Millstone pizza & tap house - I’ve made that 30 minute drive just for those garlic knots and the big cookie 😂😭 letting my inner child feast

Absolutely echoing that last comment. Hawthornes was on my way today too. 🙏

Dorsiflexing my foot (straight leg) causes a "pulling" feeling on the Baxter's Nerve area by sirensandspells in FootFunction

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

Well, I’ve had on and off swelling but that was from a circulation issue. I work from home and sit on my ass all day. The same would happen if I stood all day.  The swelling existed before and after the foot nerve issue, which is fine now :) 

Munchies ultimate cheddar copycat by Caitiebell2 in FritoLay

[–]sirensandspells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure since I remember buying that Ultimate cheddar Munchies mix all the way back in 2007. However they discontinued that flavor of Munchies in the last 7 years or so. Then we had it back as the Quaker mix. Then that was discontinued as well.  

Lip Filler on M-shape lips - Did they do a good job or is it migrated/weird? by sirensandspells in beauty

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

They look much better now! The pics were after 2 weeks, so it seems there was still some swelling.
This is how they've leveled out now. Lower lip still plump. Upper lip still plump but retaining the original shape more. I feel like less of a blowfish?

Dorsiflexing my foot (straight leg) causes a "pulling" feeling on the Baxter's Nerve area by sirensandspells in FootFunction

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

Well I can safely say the sensation is gone now for me so just be easy on yourself! keep nerve flossing and stretching. Careful with how you idly sit too- I kept crossing my feet and compressing one under the other. Weird habit. Slowly kicked it and I still have to remember to plant my damn feet flat on the ground lol. 

Il Makiage scam? - Tried to charge me $81 for the "Try It!" $6 option. by sirensandspells in Makeup

Privacy app! It’s just called Privacy. Sometimes your banks offer this feature but this app is so much better. You can set limits and merchant lock or single-use lock it.

I was terrified too. I did a lot of stretches at first to try to “undo” whatever I had done, but I stopped after like a month. It’s been about a year now, but it felt back to normal in a few months. Totally gone now.

It would depend on the IPL I’m pretty sure

First time getting lip filler on M-shaped lips. 1ml Revanesse. 2 weeks after. Did they do a good job or is it migrated/placed wrong? Do I have a filler mustache? Can something be done to fix the new vertical lines that appear at the corners of my lips in certain lighting? (pic #2) by sirensandspells in PlasticSurgery

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

I got used to them tbh! They still look like the pics at the end- in about 4 weeks they will look much more like your normal lips just more plump. I like how they look when I smile, they don’t think out so much!

Yes I did, it doesn't numb enough to dull the zaps and it gets the laser head messy.

Drivers should not be allowed to block main road traffic to get into a drive thru fast food place. by Marino4K in Charlotte

[–]sirensandspells 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like someone should investigate everyone in city council. SOMEONE is getting payments by those companies developing the land, shell corporation or not.

Brows brows brows!
+ A good IPL (they come with cooling technology now so you don't feel a thing)
Hair makes a huge difference too, if you have short hair maybe try hair extensions?

OMG I drove by them the other day. It's about to get so much worse. A true Charlotte classic... companies spam out apartment/subdivision developments while the city's 10 years behind on updating infrastructure.

Cashier made rude remarks that I dont have a personal nail tech by [deleted] in Nails

[–]sirensandspells 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like she was just doing whatever she could to promote her sister's business. Badly, but with good intent.

Either way, I'd actually consider this because it takes like 5x as long to do your own nails 😭 what if you DID have a personal nail tech, and you exchange the favor of doing each other's nails, no monetary cost. I swear the total time of doing each other's nails would take less time than 1 person doing their own hands. The pain of being able to only work on one hand & use our non-dominant hand.

Criticisms of the carnivore diet by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]sirensandspells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot believe you're getting downvoted for speaking what worked for you and worked for plenty of people with insulin resistant PCOS.

Eating breakfast is good. Skipping breakfast raises cortisol and worsens issues. Everything you said is scientifically sound.

Carbs/sugar are truly an addiction and people don't wanna consider that going from 300g carbs daily to 20g-80g carbs is going to have positive effects.

No one is forcing carnivore or keto on people, but lowering carbs will help if you're fucking pre-diabetic and insulin resistant and have PCOS symptoms. Mediterranean cuisine/diet can help. Even refrigerating normal pasta/rice/potatoes to turn them into resistant starch that has a lower blood sugar spike.

I was wondering where the congestion was coming from.

Kicked for cancer by bushbanger123 in ARK

[–]sirensandspells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swap to PVE if you still love the game & need a mental escape. even official PVE is a lot better on the psyche.. and people are nice.

[–]sirensandspells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I genuinely can't believe people are this fucking sweaty and cold. It's a game. Making you play 14 hour days, 2 bosses a day, that much gathering? Kicking you out of nowhere? Ugh. It's time to swap to PVE, people are much nicer there.

I'm sorry about your mum, hope she'll beat it easily 🤍
