I'm not opposed to a gay sandwhich troll...

Haha, I went and bought new blending brushes too! It made no difference.

Too faced quality starting going downhill AFTER Born this way. I've never liked another pallette from them. The fallout is minimal (better than most) but the shimmers take some practice. You have to press, not sweep, and it helps to use a little setting spray on the brush first. I never tried Chocolate so I can't speak to that exactly.

It definitely is not just you. When I mentioned the struggle on here a bunch of people chimed in that they had the same experience. The palmades just don't work. They don't spread evenly, have barely any pigment, and don't look the same on as they do in the pan. It is sad.

If youre looking for a new pallette, the colors kind of remind me of the too faced born this way pallete. It was all the rage several years ago but has since faded from the spotlight. It's still a rock solid pallette though.

It's not just hooded eyes. I had the same problem with the Groundworks pallette. Every color is stunning, but the formulas just don't work.

I just got a sample of the Morphe and I was surprised by how good it is. It reminds me of back in the 90s/early 2000s when we used to spray our makeup with hairspray, only less chemically and doesn't cause breakouts.

This is the first I've heard of this...just googled and I might actually cry. You just made my day!

Lord, I've seen what you've done for others...

Very true. Though I suppose I should say that this is in the U.S. and may be regionally specific. So I can preface this by saying in Oregon, we are responsible for maintaining the trees on our property. We can be fined for dead or dying trees that present a safety hazard, including an increased fire danger. Though generally they only check if they receive a complaint. If a tree falls and there is proof the tree was in a bad state to begin with, the homeowner is liable. We are supposed to have inspections done to prevent this.

I've tried it with Hourglass Ambient Soft glow, Very Valentino, Charlottle Tilbury Airbrushed Flawless Finish, and a sephora collection one I got during the sale but don't remember the name. I definitely like the Hourglass one the best, but it works for all of them. The most noticeable difference is with the heavier foundations which on my list are Hourglass and CT.

Semi related, I have always loved the CT setting spray, but for whatever reason, when I started using this brush I started hating the spray. It's the strangest thing that I can't really explain. It kind of dissolves the smooth airbrushed effect from the brush and settles it in my pores. Went back to Urban Decay All Nighter and all is right with the world.

I take it you've never had shepherds pie. That shit is delicious and needs like half a bottle.

There are some mini sets for just over $25. I was just eyeing an Amika set that counts and it has 4 minis for $30.

Act of God only counts if it falls ONLY because of an unforeseeable event like wind or lightning. If the tree is diseased or in a dangerous condition prior to the fall then the homeowner is liable.

That guy is my hero.

I hope they thank us for not adding to the burden of overpopulation. Personally, not having kids has given me more time to focus on my career, which does in fact make the world a better place (work in STEM with an environmental focus). I also have time to volunteer and disposable income to donate for various causes that I believe are going to improve the quality of life for those future generations.

Everyone has this idea of childfree millenials as selfish, unwilling to sacrifice for the next generation, but everyone I know who chose this path did it because they care very deeply. Most of us are making sacrifices and doing so to help other people's kids to grow up in a world better than the one our parents left to us. At least that's been my experience.

Hourglass vanish foundation brush. I hate that's it's so good because now I'm tempted to get more of their brushes. I had long ago accepted that full coverage foundation doesn't look good up close and just sort of did my best to blend it in as much as possible. With the Hourglass brush it actually looks good even on my magnified mirror. Barely any additional blending required. Now every time I catch my reflection during the day my mind goes right to "wow I look good" instead of "eek, time for a touchup".

Really have to take pictures in all different types of light and you should be matching your neck, not your arm. That said, given this limited Pic, you look cool to me possibly neutral as white light always looks a bit cool. Definitely need a picture out in natural light to really tell.

I'm late 30s with similar problems. My skin started to become more sensitive just in the last year. I really love Tatcha the rice wash and rice polish (calming). The wash softens the skin and the polish leaves it bright and clear.

That is absolutely heartbreaking. I hate people.

They said in another comment they are only paying $100 for him. That seems too low for a backyard breeder. It won't even cover the initial vet visit and shots. Even if they lied about taking him to the vet, $100 doesn't seem worth the effort. It's just a strange situation.

Get him out of that house and straight to the vet. Those are horrible conditions and with how young he is, it could make him sick. I think you should get him just to give him a better home.

I'm also not sure this is a backyard breeder situation. If they are only charging a small removing fee then it leans towards an oopsie puppy rather than on purpose. They would charge a whole lot more if they wanted to profit off him.

Honestly though, he's likely not a pure bred and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. He's 100% adorable and that's all that matters. Please get him and give him the home he deserves!

I could watch this all day!

Congrats! These 10x multipliers are insanely good. It makes everything over 60% off when you look at the value of the points. I'm hoarding mine as well (up to $375 at the moment) to maximize their value. I plan on redeeming when there are no multipliers and a good high dollar GWP.

You can see the texture from the pressing tool. It doesn't look like it's been disturbed anywhere so I'm leaning toward there just being some loose powder. Those cross thatched lines were made during the manufacturing process. The fact that you can see them means it hasn't been touched since it left the factory.

The odd couple.
