Girly thread v. soft hair and pretty faces

[Khadijah]

some interestin shit there....I seen alot of cool shit done with sculpted acrylic. The shit there with the cupcakes n shit tho, Im suprised if that won anything at the nail show becuz it aint very hard to do somethin like that, the designs are mad simple. I AINT HATIN!! Dont get it twisted , for real. Its cool, the creativity is awesome with wat u can do with acrylic when u use it for the less traditional shit instead of just doin overlays n etc. Anyways tho I woulda thought that there would be more crazy complex designs at a international nail art show thats all. the one with the bow n arrow its nutz tho, aint my style but its def. cool.

They got colored acrylic powders so u aint gotta paint them, thats wat id use if i was doin that shit. theres red blue and yellow and black so instead of the usual clear, pink, and white, they got the colored pigments in them and u can mix the different acrylic powders to get the color you want instead of paint it. I bet u could do some sick ass marble overlays with the powdered colors. its expensive but when i get better with acrylix im definatly gonna order some n mess around with it, its a badass medium to create shit with.

I have always been a tomboy and want to look more girly with make up and dressing and such and have no clue where to start.

If anyone is interested in helping me discover my girly side, please PM me and we can chat about it all.

I am intterested in started to wear make up and girly clothes and stuff and stop dressing like a tomboy.

any help is much appreciated.

This blog post from Steve Pavlina is quite interesting. It's obviously about a guy, but I imagine it'd be quite helpful if you know who you are and what you want to project to the world with what you wear.

I would like to recommend Listerine Whitening Rinse to anyone looking for a good teeth whitening method. I drink a bit too much coffee, so this has always been a struggle for me. I have tried every bleaching kit out there, and this rinse works 10x better.

^i use the target brand of whitening wash and it works pretty well too.

The little girl in my loves this set..

Oh
My
GOD!!!!!!


They are amazing!!


Samadhi I love your dresses, so beautiful!

While we're sharing girly outfits:

I love wearing this dress over jeans or black tights, or in summer I just wear it solo

And this is my lazy summer dress that looks (and feels) like I'm wearing a hessian sack hahaha :D

And my faaaavourite maxi-dress

Swish with hydrogen peroxide straight up works great and it is cheap. Do not swallow

 

[jackie jones]

Does hydrogen peroxide really work as well?

 

[Perpetual Indulgence]

YES! A co-worker turned me on to it.
I don't like to use rinses/toothpastes that have artificial colours or sweetners.
I use Tom's of Maine for fresh breath and the peroxide swich prior.
After 30 days I saw a difference.

N3o- You in your favorite maxi dress makes me insanely jealous. I'm not kidding.
You are beautiful......and this dress looks incredible on you- I love it ....... I could never pull it off.


Okay - so I have said many times I make my own lotions and blah blah blah but a friend was living here and she got me HOOKED on bath and body works- At first it was just their hand sanitizers and antibac lotions and hand soaps- But then I found their winter collection-
The Festive Vanilla Fig smells like coconut in the bottle a bit- but when I put it on its like spiced dark fruit and its delicious smelling! So yesterday I went and bought the Fig cream and Body Spray-
I will go back for the shower gel-
I also bought the Winter Candy Apple (which is yummy)
I also bought a peppermint sparkle body spray which is pretty amazing.

What is strange about Bath and Body works is that their lotions and stuff smell SO different depending on the person- My friend could wear one scent and it smelled flowery and nice- on me, I smelled like an old lady. The Midnight Pomegranate on her smelled bad and on me, smelled great-

^Wait to go there until after Christmas when they have their semi-annual sale. I always get a gift card for B&BW every year and now I have probably a decade's worth of shower gel/hand soap waiting to be used because of the good deals after Christmas!

 

[Perpetual Indulgence]

why do you buy more stuff when you have stuff to be used?

 

[spork]

I gotta use the gift card somehow, I figure I might as well go and get the best deals when there's sales.

 

[Perpetual Indulgence]

who keeps giving you gift cards to the same store?

Are you kidding me? You are absolutely gorgeous yourself girl! My god us women are ridiculous and our own worst critics. You have such a mysterious feminine beauty with gorgeous pouty lips, and you have a womanly figure which looks sensational in maxi dresses. In fact without curves it's hard to pull those dresses off!

Don't be jealous that's crazy. Go buy yourself one and make yourself wear it. You will get used to it and realise how amazing you actually look as well!

You remind me of Rose McGowan, and i know you don't see it but i do. So look her up and check out what kinda stuff she wears! Her style is sexy and unique. You would pull it off in a heartbeat!

 

[drugfukkdrockstar]

And Rosie - i fuckin' love you style man! It's very much like some items i own myself :D You're a good looking woman that's for sure!

Thank you - you are toooo kind
hahah I can't believe you say I look like Rose McGowan!
I NEVER get her Drew Barrymore, Khloe Kardashian, Liv Tyler (all of whom look very different??!!?) but you are the first for Rose McGowan- I think she is gorgeous- so thank you
I will try to find and wear a maxi dress next summer- just for you

Sporkette- I doubt I will have monies after X-mas but if I do, I will for sure be going !!

A word of warning on the hydrogen peroxide - make sure you're getting the kind that's labeled 3% or less! Otherwise you'll be burning your mouth with hair bleach! (I actually heard a story just yesterday about some kids putting full strength peroxide in their mouths and the nasty aftermath...) But yeah, don't worry or anything - the 3% is mostly whats on the shelves in drug stores.

Also, the acidic action can hurt your tooth enamel, so try to use toothpaste with a high fluoride level, or even better, use a fluoride rinse at least once a week. Tooth sensitivity is one of the worst kinds of pain!!! OW! And cavities are even worse!


lacey k - I'm gonna have to try to find some of those pants! (doubtful in Madison ) I have a 26in waist and 40in hips, so pants are a pain in my ass. They look ridiculously hot on you! And I'm totally jealous of your hair. I just cut all of mine off about 2 months ago for the first time in my life - it's only a few inches long right now, and I'm getting extensions put in, because it's hurting my tips at work (the shorter haircut makes me look more "mature" so I really just look older, and not in a great way...). The haircut is super cute, and I do like it, but longer hair just works better for me I guess. Almost always had it down to my waist. I'mma have to look at that brush set too - I need a new one, and those look really nice. I like that they're double-sided too.



And I'm getting a Dinair airbrush kit for xmas (airbrush foundation, eyeshadow, etc). I'll report back after I try it out! I'm super fucking excited.

thanks RnR . I cant even fit in those pants in the pic anymore my ass got too big. It was only a few weeks ago maybe a month and the funy thing is at most i gained 15lbs total, but it just went all to my ass and the top of my legs and a little bit to my boobs too . It sux becuz i really like those pants but i dont like cuttin off my circulation lol so i guess next time i get some cash i better upgrade to the next size up next time i hit up my usual spot downtown Passaic.

matter fact, I really gotta up date my pants becuz i got madd jeans but now only a couple pairs fits, mostly the stretchy type ones i was talkin about but they only stretch so much. And regular jeans is even worse now cuz its just my ass n the top of my hips/thighs not the whole thing down to the knee, u kno, so shit just dont fit right at all.

I went from this

(last summer at the jersey shore beach house)

to this (2 days ago)

thats totally the pocket of my PJ top stickin out funny tho on the front of my belly, My shit dont stick out!! My abs softer now but they still pretty flat but inthe pic it looks like i got serious gut goin on lol. I aint all rock solid abs like in the first pic now but it aint hardly a noticeable difference and my stomach definatly do not have its own profile lol just for the record yo cuz that would not be a good look:D

So, I am pretty proud of my weight gain, I been on wat i called my weight gain diet for a long time and finally made it to where i want to be at so wat do yall think is there much of a difference? or is it just in my head that i filled out a lil. Becuz i would like to think so but I know 10-15 (prob not quite, more like 12-13 at the most) aint really alot of weight to gain so maybe ppl cant really tell, IDK. I hope so tho, I really felt like i was too skinny before and Im alot thicker now, any time someone would say I was thin I felt kinda offended so hopefully I am healthy thick and not thin, even tho i can never get rid of my small kinda petite frame n i think thats why i always look like i weigh less than i do.

^My goodness, I'm jealous of your bootay!!

PI, my parents always get me the gift cards. I think this year they're laying off the one for B&BW though after my mom saw my supply. :D
