3? I’m dog tired after not sleeping well and having a really intense workout. But I’m also elated because my new GYN has prescribed me HRT! I can’t wait to get started. But first, I need a nap.
You’re perfect for this!
klemptor@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some people say "I wouldn't want a government to dictate what I eat"? This would mean they'd be against food safety regulations, would it not? Context was the idea of a government banning meat2·1 day agoAlso lab-grown meat. If we could replace meat from animals with meat grown in a lab, I think a lot of meat-eaters would make the switch. Currently lab-grown is pretty expensive from what I understand, but over time it should get cheaper as the technology becomes more widespread.
klemptor@startrek.websiteto WomensStuff@lazysoci.al•What are your favorite makeup tutorials?English3·1 day agoSorry I’m late to this thread - I haven’t been online as much recently. But makeup is one of my favorite things!
If you want simple basic makeup for everyday wear, try Angela Bright. She’s great about explaining exactly what she’s doing, which products and brushes she’s using, and lately she’s in kind of a neutral, simple makeup phase, so her looks are pretty approachable.
For simple makeup, people also seem to like Jen Phelps and Hannah Louise Poston.
And then if you’re feeling adventurous and want to try colorful fun makeup, try Angelica Nyqvist. I really love her tutorials and even if you’re not so into bold colorful looks, her techniques are still useful to apply to more simple neutral looks.
These are all white women, which is helpful for me because I’m Casper the Ghost pale. But if your skin is deeper in tone, their techniques might not show up so well on your skin. Here are some channels by women of color that I see mentioned pretty often. I can’t vouch for them because I haven’t tried them, but maybe you’ll find them helpful.
- Cynthia has loads of step-by-step beginner-friendly tutorials for women with dark skin
- Smitha Deepak for those with hooded eyes
- Alexandra Anele for women with an olive undertone
- Monica Ravichandran does makeup reviews and discusses color theory for brown skin
klemptor@startrek.websiteto WomensStuff@lazysoci.al•How do you protect yourself from emotional harm?English5·2 days agoAging does help! It’s pretty freeing to care so little what others think.
I have the opposite problem: I have a hard time letting others get close to me. I’m very emotionally closed-off and as a result most of my friendships have been pretty surface-level. How the heck do you figure out who is safe to be emotionally vulnerable with?
Who’s the beefcake? Looks like a jacked Tom Selleck.
klemptor@startrek.websiteto WomensStuff@lazysoci.al•Makeup and perfume lovers, which products or brands have you been most impressed with?5·4 days agoI was intrigued about Sweet Almond Blossom, so I went and read the description. It says:
A fruity, floral, gourmand perfume. A blue sky natural high, all year round. A daydreamer’s fantasy. A fragrance for the enchanting, ethereal, sensuous and hypnotic.
Smells like… Mouth-watering natural pomelo and juicy passionfruit float over clouds of delicate apple blossom. Creamy vanilla, sandalwood, and nutty tonka bean are beautifully balanced with explosions of other-worldly crisp green matcha tea.
… none of those words are almond, which is a surprise. From the name, I’d imagined this would smell like a floral marzipan, but the description doesn’t sound like anything almond at all. Do you think it smells like almond? Because if yes, I’m intrigued to try it, but if no, I’ll skip it.
klemptor@startrek.websiteto WomensStuff@lazysoci.al•Makeup and perfume lovers, which products or brands have you been most impressed with?4·4 days agoI love indie makeup! A few suggestions for brands who have colorful palettes and whose formula I think it’s pretty good:
- Cosmic Brushes
- Bella Beauté Bar
- Lethal Cosmetics
- Nomad Cosmetics
- Unearthly Cosmetics
- Clionadh Cosmetics
For fragrances, I hear good things about Replica but haven’t tried anything of theirs for myself. I’ve tried a bunch from Ellis Brooklyn and have really liked some of them (Scifi, Miami Nectar, Super Amber), but they’re not as long-lasting as I’d like, so I find that I need to reapply once or twice during the day. Some of their scents are really nice for layering (Super Amber and Marshmallows, for example). Nice thing about Ellis Brooklyn is that you get two free sample vials with each purchase. Other fragrance brands which seem to be pretty popular are Kayali (their Yum Pistachio Gelato is soooo good) and Phlur (I love their Mood Ring scent).

Yes you are my friend!
I remember those too! Oh god I hated those.
Mine had a carpeted bathroom, which is such an obviously bad idea for a room with a bathtub in it, I still can’t imagine what they were thinking.
Yes indeed! My grandmother had one, but I don’t think it was Barbie specifically but a knockoff with dark hair. The doll had a blue dress and so she bought the blue toilet paper. I had completely forgotten about it!

Ugh or the tiny decorative soaps shaped like roses that you can’t use, they’re for decoration only, but your mom got them as a wedding favor in the '80s so the soaps and the little wicker display basket they came in have accumulated a coating of dust that can’t be removed unless you use water which rUiNs the sOaPs…
That and doilies. I really hate doilies.
I mean, any vigorous activity directly after eating can cause a stomachache. I don’t know why swimming was the sole focus but a general caution to digest a bit before activity isn’t bad advice.
All 4 years of high school. Got them on like the third day of grade 9 and didn’t have them taken out until a couple months after high school ended.
