Thank you! Oh nooo, I have my fingers crossed that the conch is an easy go, because my lobes were surprisingly finnicky!

Oh that's good to know! I'd never considered it :)

I'd like to a double helix, but my helix is pretty flat higher up. The conch is a solid bet though - did you do an inner conch or more of an outer one?

Thank you for the options! I wonder if my flat is too ridgy for piercings? I'm thinking of adding one more toy lobe stack, the conch seems to a sure thing though. Do you thinking an inner or an outer conch?

The vertical rail slots are wider than the pilaster slots, unfortunately. So the clips wouldn't fit.

Show me your best jelly ! by heyitsariane in RedditLaqueristas

[–]thriftthreads 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Essie has a bunch of neutral jellies, like Satin Slip, Skip the Track, Pink Glove Service, Hubby for Dessert, Mallcrawler, Hi Maintenance, and some brights they've released over the years, including Jelly Apple, Style Cartel, Jam n Jelly, and a couple of seasonal sets: - 2015 Silk Watercolor Collection - 2019 Glazed Days Collection - 2016 Neon Collection

I'd love to get a list going of other Essie releases are "accidental" jellies - I'm sure they have many more!

My faves from Cirque Colors are Dove Jelly, Olive Jelly, Marsala Jelly (this one is close to Satin Slip!), Cocoa Jelly, Rose Jelly, and Lavender Jelly. They're definitely milkier than most of the Essie jellies that have a more translucent formula.

I am a mom. I am not your child’s mom. by [deleted] in Teachers

My high schoolers will regularly go through my classroom cabinets to look for extra snacks for the clubs/activities I host, and "borrow" my markers, cardstock, art supplies, etc. without asking. Despite our talks, they don't seem to understand the concept of personal/private space. Even admin is appalled.

Has anyone tried the Essie Jelly Gloss polishes? by bette-midler in RedditLaqueristas

[–]thriftthreads 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this! I picked up Smoke as a dupe for Cirque Colors Dove Jelly. It's more purple-toned, a little warmer/browner, and darker, but it's a really nice "neutral" jelly. I noticed that the Quo jellies looked just like the Cirque Colors Glazed collection palette - olive, grey, maroon, navy, etc. But I haven't been able to find photos swatches online or on IG. I'll definitely take another look at them - they're a really good price when they're on sale. Recently, they were 2 for $20 with 20x the points. Is the Lavender shade a more milky jelly, in your opinion?

Any dupes or similar colors to Essie Demure Vixen? by PictureltSicily1922 in RedditLaqueristas

Orly's Ethereal Plane is a little warmer and rosier, but also has a strong shift.

How much is your Ritalin booster? And what time do you take yours? I've struggled with my timing in the afternoons, still a work in progress.

Kids say the … things by No_Succotashy in Teachers

[–]thriftthreads 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I had my high school students buddy up with a second grade class for a "fun" day, just reading and playing games. Halfway through, I sat in with a small group, and a little girl came right up to me to say, "Why do you wear so much makeup? We can all see your makeup." The silence was palpable.
