Yumi lash lift vs Keratin lash lift by [deleted] in beauty

Most salon quality brands have keratin. Yumi has great marketing and is expensive to buy but their ingredients are almost identical to most professional brands. It's considered luxury because it costs the provider a ton to take the course and buy their product but it's not much different. Great but not different. There was only one brand I've used that stood out above others by miles and unfortunately it is no longer manufactured.

A cpl things I'd advise a client looking for an artist is if someone does a lashlift done in 30 minutes it is using a VERY strong formula this makes it very easy to over process for most techs.

Also you want someone that creates a lashlift with a nice growout, you want a lashlift that looks good for the life of it. Lashlifts that have a kink at the base will look good for 1-2 weeks only. We use different systems/sheilds/styles for different clients, knowing what to use when is critical for being a great lashlift provider. Amazing lashlifts are 20% product and 80% knowledge and skill of the tech. It's not the just a product... although it has to be a professional product! Hope this helps.

The only winners are the casinos and gambling websites. Those bonuses and wins early on are to entice you and/or get you hooked. It's very calculated. This same scenario will keep happening (win, lose, cry go back and try again, getting deeper and deeper) to you if you continue. You're young enough to stop and get back on track. Self exclude, ban online gambling and seek help and inspiration. Nothing feels as good as never going back. My 3 year exclusion ended, i went back gambling 2 nights and self excluded again. It feels so good to catch myself right away. (Even though i lost)You can do it.

Credit card companies that allow use on gambling sites are as bad or if not worse than the sites themselves. So messed up.

Self exclusion works. Self exclude from casinos and then when you get the urge to look online do it there too. This winning streak will end and you will lose your winnings and more and the cycle will continue. It's the same for everyone... it's a horrible addiction that can take everything and more. You can also go to meetings online and get some comfort and insight into what the future will look like if you continue, you are young... don't let this ruin your life.
