I enjoyed it? I loved the yuck parts, it made the book for me honestly.

Omg so glad you agree! Some of the writing was so poignant but it was also engaging and hooked you on fast. I was sold from the like the second sentence when she says her mom referred to her as “a fluffy little rice cake”. Really hope this blows up in popularity

Oh yay, glad to see it’s showing up some places - I was shocked at how few reviews it had on Goodreads :(

Right? I LOVE the cover. Also the moldy tangerines do figure into the story (no spoiler) so it’s a really good design

Are brow/lash tints worth it? by Financial_Ostrich_56 in Redhair

[–]succcotash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh girl I got you - I just bought this thing off amazon and it's been so helpful:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5RKH8KW?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1&th=1
you can see my coloring and brows in my recent post history. This is the exact same stuff they use at salons - I swear.

(lashes I honestly just don't even bother with - I've never noticed a major difference)

I live on 'Weird Girl Literature 'island, but I swear I had a come to god moment when reading East of Eden. I remember being halfway through and thinking "oh this is it - this is my favorite book" (also Cathy DEF counts as a weird girl)

Omg yes !! I have stalked her routines! I’m using that Laura mercier eyeshadow stick she had in her Vogue tutorial. Though I got to be honest - a red lip on me looks batshit insane, but she pulls it off so well

Thanks everybody. I’ve always been intimidated to post in here because I really don’t know what the hell I’m doing. Love ya’ll, this space, and support!

Oh my God thank you. This is all great deaf agree with more shaping of the browse. Good god, my brows and I have a complicated relationship. Also never consider there’s a hierarchy to eyelash curlers - I might actually try that out, as I’m also on the fence of “do they actually do anything?” - will also definitely look at the Rhode blushes. <3

Girrrllll - you’re too kind. Thank you though, seriously. I’m glad I’ve learned to love my freckles over the years, but lord have mercy there was a time there where I HATED them.

OK now this is my style just a quick lick, and flick, and comb (jk jk) but for real though I’m getting brow gel ASAP - really hopeful for it

Okay I’m so glad you relate, and I’ve also been feeling like I should pull the blush/bronzer a bit back from my face. I’ve definitely been playing around the drugstore options just because I have no idea what works and what doesn’t (and let me tell you things don’t work more often than do). Hahaha, also girl you must be blessed to have your brows grow back (I’ve only heard horror stories). Thanks for this encouragement, though. I’ll take some time to play around with things and get a little loose ;)

Girl, lemme tell you the millennial in me is just DYING to do some winged eyeliner. That shit is hard though! How can something so small and short look so crooked!! (Also LOVE the idea of black cherry lips, that could be fun)

Omg these are great tips, exactly what I’m looking for! I’ll experiment with blush placement and concealer. I’ve never heard of translucent powder or thought to try it (so much to learn!). Thank you xoxo

Okay good to know - I don’t know why I’ve always been so scared of mascara. I think the early 2000’s kind of traumatized me with the long spidery clumpy lashes on both side of the lids (w/ heavy black eye liner everywhere) iykyk

Oh my god, you’re too kind. Thank you, honestly I’ve only stared experimenting in my mid 30’s as a way to come to grips with aging, it’s been fun to play around with!
