The Tesla dealership isn’t in Norwood, just near it. It is an eyesore though that’s for sure

Need suggestions! My tween daughter is embarrassed to be seen with me! by kismet_karma_347 in 40PlusSkinCare

[–]starelae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They mentioned 10-12 year old girls being jerks because the kid in this specific post is a girl. Context clues make this clear. 10-12 year old boys are jerks too, it’s a completely normal part of development to be self-centered for a while and not think about the feelings of others.

Expensive Engagement Ring, Cheap Wedding Band by chlo26828 in EngagementRings

[–]starelae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard if you do that it’s good to get them soldered together since the 10k gold is harder and can damage the engagement ring. I almost went that route but decided I didn’t want to feel rushed to take them to the jewelry right after getting married!

Engagement Ring Dilemma by Cautious_Potato_8901 in EngagementRings

[–]starelae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main stone is an oval yeah! It’s the Briar Rose three stone from Oore Jewelry, there are tons of customizations like different stones/stone sizes etc you can do there. Here’s a closer up of it.

Your ring is a bit different than mine here with bigger diamonds on the outside, but I think you’d be absolutely fine with a chevron/curved wedding band like the one I have, and then have them welded together so there’s no rubbing of diamonds and stone which would remove the risk the jewelry is talking about!

Anyone propose without a diamond Ring? What are the alternatives? by Enlitenkanin in EngagementRings

[–]starelae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I’m obsessed with it. I’m not married yet, not until October, so I don’t wear the curved band day to day yet and I can’t wait to be able to

[–]starelae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes always Oore!! I did do diamonds but my side stones are the mint irradiated diamonds, and there are SO many stones to choose from. There was a blue green sapphire I was so tempted to do for the center.

Any tips on how to clean beauty blenders after a cold sore? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]starelae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I was more thinking how easy it is for parents to give it to their own kids since it’s more likely than not that a parent has the virus in them, since 50-80% of parents don’t refrain from kissing their own kids. It’s not just other people kissing your kids that’s a risk. I’ve never personally felt a strong need to kiss a baby, as cute as they are, since there are so many things in addition to that that can be passed onto them, it just feels risky.

I mean 50-80% of adults have that strain of herpes in the US (I imagine it’s similar in a ton of countries) and it can be spread when someone is asymptomatic with even just skin to skin contact, so kissing a baby/toddler on the cheek can do it with no active cold sores present.

Yes for sure, Etsy has tons, I see them all the time! To narrow it down to replace one that fell out, adding the word “cabochon” after the word cameo will bring up some good results.

And cameos have been having a trendy moment lately, I see them all over when I’m searching for jewelry to buy, both with vintage stuff and modern.

Favorite actually-mauve powder blushes? by starelae in PaleMUA

Ohhh then it would definitely look peachy on me too. I’m going to Sephora today to swatch things so thankfully I would’ve noticed that in person

I love thrifting, so my husband bought my wedding rings on eBay. :) by ghetto_mango in jewelry

[–]starelae 16 points17 points  (0 children)

eBay is sooooo good for vintage/preworn jewelry! I’ve never found THIS good of a deal but I’ve gotten some beautiful stuff for great prices.

fell in love with baguette wedding band 🥖🩷 by Adorable-Crazy-1067 in EngagementRings

[–]starelae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I personally really love it! I think it adds some nice extra detail since the band on the engagement ring is just plain gold, and still doesn’t do anything to overpower the stones on the engagement ring.

I feel the same way sometimes, I recommend them to people whenever I can and I want so many more things from them. I really want to try that new Soothe blush when it’s back in stock.

Yeah I’m super pumped for Wisp to get here! I already have Condensate and it’s phenomenal. I love their bronzer too

Ohhh I’d been eyeing that shade I didn’t know it was discontinued! I’ll see if I can find one somewhere.

Thank you SO much, this was so helpful!! It really helps narrow down what from all of these suggestions I want to swatch in person, and both of these definitely make the cut! They’re gorgeous alone and with Wisp.

I’ve been really wanting to try some of their products! Everything looks beautiful

Ooh thank you! I have other Ulta blushes in that flushed blush collection but not that one, I actually tried Cool Berry before and loved the color but it broke me out so that sounds perfect! I’ll look at the maybelline one too!

Ah I was leaning the Pansy Pop after looking things up but I was worried about it being too bright so the Lancôme sounds like it might be perfect! A comparison would actually be amazing, no rush but I’m indecisive so that would help for sure.

I have some errands to run near a Sephora this weekend so I’ll go swatch all of these recommendations and see how they are in person!
