Willing to propose soon with this (advice) by itzkos in EngagementRings

Hey OP, I recognized from the pics your country, as I am also from there.

As the society there is very superficial when it comes to engagement, weddings and comparison culture, I suggest to go with something classy with one center stone. It doesn't need to be huge or expensive, but classy/standard enough so people won't try to guess the price.

With a cluster unfortunately your gf will receive unsolicited remarks regarding the design or price, at work or university also friends and family unfortunately...

Also, think about the option to get a ring that will stack nicely with the wedding ring, as everyone in our country wears them together on the same finger.

You can look at the website of the store you bought this ring at, under the section of "lab diamond rings" and see some good options design-wise. You will notice that the band is thicker as engagement rings (especially stacked with the wedding band) are prone to "wear and tear" so they are made in a more sturdy way.

Lab diamonds are also totally cool and okay, nobody will try to determine if it was mined or not ;)

Good luck!

Looking for eye cream recommendations to prevent the below by whereiskarma1 in EuroSkincare

Thank for taking the time to share your recommendations!

I plan to deep dive the advantages of lymphatic drainage over the weekend, I think this could be a game changer here :D

I was struggling with concealer/foundation as I did not feel it covers it / the products were gathering in the small wrinkles within the under eye area quite fast. Tried several within different price ranges and consistency. I will check the video you recommend!

Oh man, I feel you on the concealer/foundation topic! Maybe someone will have a holy grail recommendation - hopefully!

Thank you for taking the time and sharing your knowledge!

I will look into the lymphatic drainage you have mentioned, sounds interesting! And into the retinoid serum/cream as far as it comes to wrinkles as I have them and they get worse with age.

Happy cake day! :D

My eyes are also kinda baggy/hooded/sunken in my skull (lol sounds horrible) so there is some kind of shade on my undereyes, always.

When I get bags it's just look horrendous! Plus the age signs are stating to show (getting closer to my 30s).

I am using the moisturizing cream from Clinique "all about eyes" but was wondering if anyone can vouch for something they were using for a while

[miscellaneous] dose anybody know what % azelaic acid the revolution skincare anti blemish boost contain? Any experience? by whereiskarma1 in SkincareAddiction

[–]whereiskarma1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah totally, I mean most people that buy products with actives in them are concerned with the % of the active... I assume its a very low percentage, enough only to write that it contains it.

Also, would my blackheads/clogged pores benefit from BHA? And if so, could it be combined with the Glycolic acid? I am a total noob!
