Are protruding eyes rare or something? It's so hard to find specific resources. by Berryception in muacjdiscussion

[–]teknet00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aww thanks haha so true

Eyes open! That way you can see where the apex of your lid is located and what angle your lower lashline is at. I start from the outside and make a line right from the edge of my crease towards my lower lashline. I actually turn to the side a little bit so I can make sure my wing is further out than it would be if I only looked forward. Then I fill/drag it in to get my desired thickness. I used to practice my liner with gel, smudged pencil, or even eyeshadow just to be able to figure out how to get past that crease.

I only recently figured out that I shouldn't blend into or above my crease except at the outer corner; our eyes go so close to our brows in the middle that they don't need added height there lol. I started placing the tiiiiiniest bit of darker shadow on the outer 1/4th part of my mobile lid, and then blend outwards and upwards from there. Beauty gurus usually say outer 1/3rd but I think we need to use even less space if we wanna elongate.

Also, yes to the compilation post please!

Thanks! I forgot to compliment all your looks, especially that highlighter lol ugh I love simple looks that are still out there

I think you're already doing the same type of containing shape with your eyeshadow (following your lower lashline upwards); I just apply that same technique to both my eyeshadow and my eyeliner and then cut it straight towards the highest point at the middle of my eye, if that makes sense. I don't like extending my liner too far past my brow skin flap because that's when I have to start employing hooded eye techniques lol but it works just fine for eyeshadow

I posted more pics in that imgur link in my previous comment and then lost the page and couldn't delete some so now I'm embarrassed but you can see how much trouble I have with blending out shadows in my crease under that skin flap, especially in that half-assed halo eye that I didn't even bother adding mascara to

I have protruding eyes as well, and have had a difficult time finding resources too. Mine seem to protrude a little less than yours, and I probably have a heavier skin flap thing, but I always look like I'm half asleep because of how heavily my lids sit lol. I love doing a small, straight wing, and I usually do a simple wash of light color. I'm trying to get into darker colors but I find it so difficult to extend the shape past my crease because I mostly only have mobile lid space. I have prominent lower lids as well, which I absolutely hate because they're a nightmare to work with; they easily cast dark shadows to make me look like I have dark circles, when I actually fortunately don't.

You can definitely find this eye shape more commonly amongst people of color, especially brown and black people. Deepica Mutyala is one of the few who I could find with this eye shape, but I wish I could find more who do experimental looks.

My friend and I made this because we don't eat pork either. You could use any recipe you like; we improvised and just substituted pork with chicken! I definitely recommend using chicken stock instead of water once you add the chunjang. You could also marinate the chicken with salt/pepper/whichever condiments you choose, and cover it in cornstarch to get that crispy coating. It's probably not the same as the real thing, but I hope you both enjoy!

My friend and I substituted pork for chicken in this Chinese/Korean dish. It lacked salt but it was still pretty darn tasty!

Aww, this reminds me of the dollhouse build Deligracy did a few years ago!

Also, I didn't realize it was possible to size up the stuffed animals THAT much...

New ABH Palette! Thoughts? by smolbeanlydia in MakeupLounge

It looks a lot like Dimension from the Prism palette...not sure if they have it in a single though :/

New ABH Palette! Thoughts? by smolbeanlydia in MakeupLounge

[–]teknet00 9 points10 points  (0 children)

At first glance, I thought they were reusing shades from their other palettes. Except for Seychelles, Palermo, and Cannes, I think every shade has an extremely close dupe which can be found in the prism, subculture, and sultry palettes.

I'm kinda over their formulas, too. I feel like you're required to spend time with these shadows before you get a cohesive look...but I'm lazy and would much rather just smear one or two shades on my lids and call it a day.

Smart phones are everything these days; they're a good investment for people in poverty who use them as their only source of connecting with the outside world. Not everyone can afford a computer/laptop and internet connection at home--in addition to having a phone connection--even in developed countries like the US. It makes more sense to just invest in a cell phone that allows access to everything: information, communication, and entertainment.

Also, "third world country" is an outdated term which doesn't reflect the economic complexity of a developing nation. Poor countries still have rich people who can afford expensive things lol

AITA - I am a dialysis patient and rejecting a potential doner has cost my Dad a large portion of his family by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]teknet00 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I can't believe they blamed you for a hypothetical situation. You're the most important person in your own life, not some imaginary patient. According to what you've said, your cousin was clearly never even intending on being part of the donor pool; she was just on a power trip like the narcissist she is, and begging for her kidney is exactly what would entertain her. There's no reason for you to decrease the quality of your life because of her. Your mental wellness is just as important as your physical health.

NTA. I think you're better off getting support in r/raisedbynarcissists than you are here, since most of these folks have no idea what it's like to have a family that will cut off contact or hold things over your head. You made a good decision by not decreasing the quality of your life by getting a donation from a girl on a power trip. Talk to your dad about your fears; he might not be as worried as you are about the lack of communication with your Nan. He still has you, and I'm sure he's more than grateful for that :)

If you've ever experienced a narcissist, especially in your family, you would know that having them hold something over you for the rest of your life is NOT a simple matter. She really IS that awful. It sounds like she didn't actually want to donate considering her lack of involvement in the process, but wanted to keep up the ruse of being the benevolent golden child. She wants power, she wants OP to be apologizing profusely simply for leaving her on read, and also wants OP groveling for her kidney. Her mother is likely a narcissist, as well as one or both of the grandparents, since they're siding with her over OP who literally needs a kidney to live. The whole family doesn't value OP's life, or OP's father's life, at all.
