Almost everyone. Those of us who have trouble finding our waists and ribs after gaining a few pounds... not so much. I'm not all that big, but due to where my extra lands, this would create a doughy roll on me in between the two parts. Silhouette from the side would also not be good.
Losing my exercise muscles thanks to all the ice and snow around helped me get back into my pants. Kind of a sad trade
For me, there's nothing more satisfying than putting on an article of clothing that really feels like me. In the…
You're absolutely gorgeous! That old saw about "being able to cut butter on those cheekbones " is very apt. And your hair. And lipstick skills. And everything.
If you want a great inexpensive and cruelty free one, get the one from Milani. I keep several around and at least one new one on backup, sealed in the package.
Excellent, thank you. I was too busy trying to cover up a freaking blemish to look myself when I left the first comment.
When someone first suggested I put MAC Cyber on my lips I was like "lol no you dumb dumb. I'm a ghostly pale redhead with blue eyes."
I LoOOOOOoooOOOve A-Go-Go lipstick and it looks awesome on you! I can't pull it off without mixing it with something red or pink unfortunately.
Guy here.
Chub rub is not a "skin issue" and depending on your build and how in shape you are it can affect anyone, although yes, it is primarily an issue for those of us that are plus size. But would that really require you to use an entire different regimen than someone who is straight sized, even down to the eyeliner and…
This is a very new blog (under a month), but I did some searching through recent posts to find some articles that might be more along the lines of what you are looking for featuring plus size ladies and/or ladies of color:
Your hair sounds EXACTLY the same as mine, and I am squeeing because I found an online stockist for the hair stuff in Australia! I need you to understand that this is a BIG DEAL!!! We never have access to the cool shit down here!
Sometimes I just use deodorant, which I feel like is terrible and not good for my skin. But I picked up some Bag Balm (ugh the name, I know) which is pretty good! The chub rub is REAL when I try to do anything but sit quietly... but who has time for that shit?!
also! the reason you're not 'supposed' to use soap on your face is two things. one, soap is basic with a pH around maybe 9 iirc? and human sebum is acidic with a pH around 5 or so and being in the basic range too long isn't good for it. that's the point of toner, to bring the pH back where it belongs. that's also why…
I'm down with fun makeup, but I would also love to see some aging and older women on here who talk about how their skin care/ makeup needs have changed or shifted—- like, what should I be doing with my pretty grey streaks? Are there any shampoos to enhance them/make them healthier? Are my makeup needs going to…
I think those involve in this blog have done a great job with representing women, I'm excited at all the stuff they've posted so far and looking forward to future stuff. I'm just really cranky tonight and probably got involved with a comment I shouldn't have, but oh well.
I hope you're considering or at least have looked into someone to discuss WOC hair/skin care. Obviously there's a lot of variance within that broad category, but some basic "here's great shit for darker skin" (because WOC are more prone to scars and pigmentation issues *and* not being able to find a bloody colour…
"Lipstick looks best when you are laughing a lot."
I'm pretty into this.
