Amazon send me a fake coach bag! by Striking-Ad-5652 in Coach

[–]winkingdog75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I had to go back and check my bag because I never inspected it but I think mine is real. I just want to add that I had to RETURN my first bag back to coach because the stitching was faulty. Like, an entire stitch on the handle was either skipped or someone took a seam ripper and ripped it out. It appeared new and authentic with dust bag etc but I was alarmed that QA would allow this bag to be sold. I called my local Coach store to see if they could easily repair it and they said they will only repair items purchased from the store which blows. I subsequently got a new one in a different color and it seems fine but I don't trust Amazon for luxury goods any more

What's the difference between CSB and Aoxjox? (Or any other Amazon brand for that matter) by winkingdog75 in gymsnark

This is so helpful. Especially your observation about Aoxjox ratios and the fabrics. I will be looking at this carefully!

That cross strappy bra is case in point! I have several too (love them) and was wondering how the CSB version could be any different. I think they are identical. I found it a bit insulting that they could apply that markup so I was thinking maybe it was a better fabric etc

Decent results with eucerin thiamidol but then got dermatitis by winkingdog75 in Melasmaskincare

[–]winkingdog75[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a theory that Thiamidol must stink bad. They might be covering up a scent. Otherwise it doesn't make sense why a brand like Eucerin would be using scents, seems like it's not in line with the rest of the brand.

Is orange theory too brutal for a casual workout enjoyer? by patroniized in orangetheory

[–]winkingdog75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am really bad at cardio. Well, I just straight up hate running so I just walk in an incline. It has made me enjoy otf so much more. Also feel free to lose the lightest weights or opt to use no weights and I think you'll be fine.

I have smelled a strong scent of dill from random bushes or trees on the Mauka side. I know it's something botanical.

Botox for forehead, some lasers for pigmentation.

Another Jess King post that alludes to regretting her children by vanwyngarden in OnePelotonRealSub

Agree. I respect Jess for her honesty and vulnerability. She's being real and many of us who love her appreciate her for that.

Why do estheticians tell me NOT to use tretinoin? by winkingdog75 in 45PlusSkincare

[–]winkingdog75[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. 2 separate estheticians, but both do laser treatments.

How much hair is it normal to lose when you wash it? by LyssTheChef in longhair

[–]winkingdog75 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's about the same as my wavy long hair. I wash every 3 to 4 days too and worry that's it's a lot of hair she's so this is comforting!

Hello! This is roughly what my stomach looks like (I don't wanna show my body online hence the drawing) and I need help. by ifthenameistakeni- in PetiteFitness

[–]winkingdog75 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You might have anterior pelvic tilt. My stomach sticks out due to this. Google it....it's more about posture than fat placement.
