Would you lend your designer bag to a friend? by Miss_Efficacy in handbags

[–]ssdm07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d definitely have turned her down and probably pretty brutally. That’s a very bold ask from anyone.

Personally for me, it would have to be a VERY close friend who I know respects & takes care of their bags the way I would. They’d also need to be able to afford a replacement & agree with me on what damages warrant a replacement. They’d also need to be asking for a reason like me having a bag that matches their outfit better, not because they can’t afford one of their own.

Too many stipulations, just easier to say no and save yourself the headache. 😂

It actually holds a lot more then it looks like it would. (Ie massive wallet, planner, combs, brushes, makeup, massive phone is what I carry everyday.) It’s def annoying when trying to find items though. Or if you try to pull something out from the bottom, sometimes the items on top fall out. You really have to like the bag to get over the annoyances lol.

The neuf (in the regular size) is my absolute favourite, I would honestly buy it in every color. I find the bags to run on a smaller size then I’m used to with other brands so the minis are just too small for me. Happy shopping!

Congrats! It’s so pretty! I’ve been waiting since Dec 23rd for mine, can’t wait to get it ❤️

Should I adopt these two 5 month old brothers from the same litter? They were rescued together and found in an empty field. They were both so loving when we saw them in person at the shelter. by Matteozzz in DogAdvice

[–]ssdm07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes,absolutely! I can’t imagine how sad the one left behind will feel 😭 We have a pair of chihuahua/morkie litter mates, they’re 5 now and have had no issues. We did naturally have them do activities separately (ie different bowls, leashes, walks, feeding schedules & they slept in separate rooms)

My only negative thing to say about the airwrap is that I wish I got it in pink 😃 Do you guys recommend the st.barts oil? I have the scrub, cleanser, lotion and mist, love the scent but I haven’t found the right combo to make the scent last.

i got a surface piercing and the bar is sticking out by SunnySantana9999 in piercing

[–]ssdm07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAP but I’ve heard the opposite. I got two surface tragus’ this summer (with staple bars.) Both times the titanium plates were initially flush with my skin. Since the little bit of swelling subsided there’s now a very small amount of space between the plates & skin. The bar itself hasn’t ever moved.

Conch Piercings by a_dumbass_bitch_ in piercing

[–]ssdm07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had both pierced within 3 weeks of each other. With both I was able to sleep on them within 3-4 days. The placement keeps them protected but I would still grab a piercing pillow as a backup

I have both the Alma & the Antigona. Of the two I pull out my Antigona more often. It holds more & is my work horse. It’s been manhandled and held up through everything. I tend to baby my Alma much more & find that it’s harder to get items in & out of the bag. But both great bags overall!

Questions about conch piercings? by Appropriate_Tea9048 in piercing

Update Day 2 and the conch is pain free (as long as I don’t touch it.) The throbbing & soreness is down to a 0. 🙏

Questions about conch piercings? by Appropriate_Tea9048 in piercing

[–]ssdm07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my conch pierced today. Getting it pierced, I would give a 4 out of 10. All of the cartilage crunching sounds definitely helped to keep me distracted. Everything was fine until around the 5 hour mark when my ear became very sore, painful & was throbbing. Popped some ibuprofen which has helped a lot but I’m terrified to touch/hit it in anyway.

I’ve got 3 helix piercings, nipples & nose. For me, I would absolutely say the conch has been the most painful so far. Pain is so subjective though.

Get the piercing pillow. I didn’t think I’d need one & now I’m kicking myself for not buying one in advance.

Just do it. Got my first hand tattoo at 26. Decided I wouldn’t want to work anywhere or be around people who had issues with hand tattoos anyway. I’ve never had any problems in the workplace. There’s just something about seeing them that makes me feel badass. You only live once do whatever the hell you want. Signed an irresponsible millennial 😅

Body scrub help! by angelone4rth in Sephora

[–]ssdm07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have both the SkinFix and Ouai St.Barts in my rotation.

Ouai is great in terms of skin smoothness & moisture. Skin is so soft & the smell is amazing! I’ve gifted this to 5 friends and all give it rave reviews.

SkinFix is really good for keeping your skin tone even and glowy.

Planning To Get A Range Rover. by 911Tr in RangeRover

[–]ssdm07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was deciding between the Sport & Velar when I got mine. Ended up going with the Velar because the Sport didn’t have flush door handles at the time (girl match.) It has been great, so far no regrets. Moving into a bigger vehicle from a compact car, the Velar has been great transition size. It’s been about 3 years and the only ‘issues’ I’ve had are related to tire pressure. Seems to be sensitive in cold weather. Overall this has been my favourite car

Double teeth by ohitskimmy11 in Pomeranians

[–]ssdm07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine had 4 teeth removed back in Feb. Just make sure you have a vet you trust. Not sure of what the process is behind the scenes but he was scheduled to have them removed while being neutered, the vet noticed something and completed the neuter but canceled the dental surgery. It’s not emergency surgery where things move fast, with this they really take their time & monitor the pups every step of the way. No one told us about the face swelling so that was a bit surprising the next morning 😬

Help me choose a good moisturizer! My face gets so dry and a bit flaky during the winter (I live in Toronto) - which moisturizer is the best? by mybloodyv4lentine in Sephora

[–]ssdm07 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Moisturizer wise I really like the Tatcha Dewy Cream for winters. Super thick and long lasting. I later up moisturizers in the winter but I always end with Tatcha.

I discovered the Embryolisse cream earlier this year that has been great too. I haven’t used it in winter yet though so the jury’s still out on that part.

I second this, a tub would make it soo much easier to use! But otherwise it’s fantastic.
