I was JUST going to say this. The first time I walked into the stall my heart sank as I thought I had gone into the mens room by mistake. I used it, but couldn't stop thinking, "So, is Hillary hovering over his thing, worried about falling half naked to the floor when her pants trip her? Because this shit is ridiculous."
Yeah, I totally understand why sex-ed curriculums don't really address the pull-out method except for "don't do it, you WILL get pregnant and it's idiotic" but that's not exactly the case for most people. This is totally anecdotal, but all the accidental pregnancies in my circle have been from the people who feel like it's not sex if the guy pulls out and who fuck up their pills in some way. For people who don't like hormones and who aren't worried about STD's, it's not a bad method, though I have heard that this also can depend a lot on the guy.
"The first couple of years we were dating, we weren't using any protection. Just pulling out and being extra careful during certain times of the month. We had not one pregnancy scare, not even in the slightest."
This right here is why a lot of women think this. I have tons of friends in this age range (26-36) who have done the same thing. You hear all this stuff about how risky that method is, "pre-cum! you could get pregnant from pre-cum! My mom had me from pull-and-pray!" but by year 2 or 3 when you have never had a pregnancy scare? One starts to think perhaps there is a fertility issue because you certainly haven't been all that on top of the birth control.
I LOVE argan oil. I also bought a bottle of camelia oil and it is pretty great too.
I was reading about it on the Hair Board over at MakeupAlley. This has some reviews with ratios on sea salt spray, and someone says they also used epsom salts and prefer that.
You can make your own pretty easily by putting water, sea salt, and some type of oil (argan, coconut, etc.) in a spray bottle. Add fragrance if you like. I hate the idea of making products, and even I would try this because I flinch a little at paying over 20 dollars to get salt in my hair.
I was going to say, this will wreck your hair if it is fine, dry, or processed. It's putting salt on your hair daily.
Yeah, it seemed that way to me too at first, but I envisioned myself having back and forth convos with this guy over Ebay..."Well, the Pour La Victoire flats are really coming along. I got a big scuff on them this weekend so I will probably only want to wear them a few more times. This pair of Botkier's are about ready to go. I am going biking in them tomorrow so hopefully they will be really gross after. Not going to wear socks!" and realized I might not be down for the "lifestyle."
I sold some shoes to a shoe fetishist once. I was auctioning a pair of Marc Jacobs flats on Ebay (worn once) and someone contacted me to ask that if they not sell, I could wear them for however long until they were totally trashed and then he would pay 80 dollars for them. He had an "art project" that required lots of detroyed designer women's shoes. Uh huh. They didn't sell and for some reason I was like "what the heck" and sold them to the guy 5 months later. He was very polite and happy with his purchase, and offered the same amount for any other worn shoes from my collection in the future (nicer brands only, no flip-flops). At that point I decided I didn't really want to be a long-term provider of ratty shoes to some guy in Germany, but it was an ok experience! I contemplate it ever once and awhile when tossing a pair of the many flats I tear through.
The thing about the MAC return-the-empties program is that I don't find it great if you are a big makeup buyer. I have LOTS of lipsticks and eyeshadows and use different ones all the time. It takes forever to actually finish an eyeshadow or a lipstick, no less finish 6.
I think it may actually be true. You would think the Jolie-Pitts would be all crunchy into the natural, unprocessed food for their kids, but every photo of them when they have food it's like Maddox is swigging from a bottle of Mountain Dew, Zahara's got a Snickers in her hand and Shiloh is going to town on a bag of Cheetos.
That's true too. I have been on a few dates like that. The guy isn't horrible, but there are a few things I would have to make an effort to "get over" and the chemistry isn't there to give me the impetus to do that. That is not trying hard enough for some people.
The most annoying thing coupled women do is try to set you up with all of their friends. You know, those guy friends that are so fucking amazing that they never, ever wanted to date them. Yeah, he hasn't had a steady job in 10 years, kinda unattractive, totally neurotic, not really over his ex, and is kind of a hoarder who lives in his parents basement, but he is SO NICE and amazing! You should totally date him! He's great! You're single, why are you turning your back on love?!
True! I always doubt this clean living thing for a lot of celebs too. I mean, Demi herself blabbed on and on about her yoga and her raw food diet as the secret to her youth. And in reality she was massive quantities of Red Bull, doing drugs, and starving herself. Kind of a far cry the one from the other.
I pretty much assume every Hollywood star over the age of 30 has had at least botox and filler and I only really notice it when its shitty work. Otherwise they just look younger than their years and credit everything with "clean diet and exercise."
I have had that happen too. Like you, I prefer a faily natural triangle in front, then everything else off. If they go back and forth trying to get it "even" to the point where it's ridiculously small, I go home and wax the rest off. Something the size of a quarter looks pretty odd to me.
No, a true Brazilian leaves something. American's decided to go whole-hog and leave nothing and call it Brazililian, though for a few years they called it a "Hollywood" or something. A few of my American friends wanted everything off when we were living in Brazil and the general reaction from the aestheticians was, "what the hell! you are fucking weirdo! You need to leave SOMETHING or you look 8."
People who drink a lot can black out and not even seem that drunk. The gross, slobbery drunks seem to be people who drink less frequently and then overindulge. I know a few people who are the former, and it's kind of freaky because they won't remember hours of a night, but they don't really come off like they had more than a few drinks.
It's THE WORST. I absolutely loathe how they do their eyes. I describe it as 1987 Estee Lauder counter. Black, un-itnterupted and non-blended black liner around the whole eye? Bleck!!!!
Also, I don't think they are just going for the waterline. I generally use a black powder liner with a flat brush on my upper lashline and sometimes do a touch on the lower lash-line or waterline. It's pretty subtle if you are just working the waterline or working close to your lashes. This...doesn't look like that at all to me. Their eyeliner is like a barely sharpened CoverGirl black pencil dragged fully around their eyes. Flattering for no one. It ages them both terribly and is generally unflattering.
I have been pre-treating with it (overnight, wash out in the morning) for the past 3-4 years. Once a week-ish. I haven't really noticed much difference, but I am constantly trying to make my hair stronger and longer and it's not difficult to slap some in so...I continue since I figure it can't hurt. I would try some before blow-drying but my hair is fine so I have to really watch it with oils.
