I haven't even made the mid-tier thing (VIB?) at sephora for like two years, nevermind Rouge. I'm throwing my money away at Ulta now
The stores aren't as nice but they're just better. The reward system is better, they have brands sephora doesn't have, etc. It's nice to earn points on drug store shit ya know.
this one has been powerlevelling all over the shop... halal soon?
Collagen is a protein. The body treats all proteins exactly the same way. It doesn't say "oh, this is collagen, it goes to the joints and skin!" There's very little to no evidence that collagen supplements do anything at all, and a few science based medical sites have debunked these types of claims. That's not to say it can't or doesn't have a placebo effect, and if you feel it's helping you, maybe it is.
I'm guessing
Etsy is a good place to look for more niche fashion and accessories. If you do a general search for dark mori on Etsy, there’s a lot to look at.
I’ve been following the curly girl method for a couple years. I was shocked at how well it works, but it does work. My hair looks better and is way more manageable than it was before. I suspect how damaged one’s hair is when she begins will dictate how long it will take to notice a change. It also was very helpful finding a stylist who specializes in curly hair.
H naoto gramm. I've seen some things at demobaza (expensive) and some random gothic lolita/jfashion brands I can't remember. Also h&m has had some things that worked. Since it's all about layering different dark clothes and knits you can find suitable things a lot of different places. Look for anything black or grey, asymmetric, knit, frayed. My style leans more toward strega though
I know you said online, but thrift stores really can be your best friend. Thrift stores and fabric dye if you don't find what you want in the correct shades. Looking at examples online, I see stuff that could easily work at my local thrift stores allllll the time. And it might fit the aesthetic better to have mixed pieces rather than perfect pre-bought coords.
I feel like the extra moisture is really helping my hair (which was really dry but not otherwise heat- or chemical-treated) and when I get out of the shower I have little ringlets, but as soon as I start fussing with it, like touching it with a microfiber towel, putting in gel (and forget scrunching!), it turns into stringy frizzy hair. This morning I didn't S2C or put in gel or scrunch, just co-wash and some leave in, and it feels pretty nice, isn't frizzy, and I have little curlicues framing my face but my hair is just curling at the ends. It's fairly long and heavy, so I'm hoping a chop this weekend (just at my regular salon; saving the DevaCut until after I get the hang of it) will help.
Don’t use a microfiber towel, use a t-shirt. The t-shirt causes much less friction on your hair, reducing the amount of frizz caused by the towel. I don’t use the t-shirt to shake my hair. I just sort of plop it on my head to soak up the excess water while I’m drying off. The more you put you hands on or mess with your hair, the more frizzy it becomes. I definitely recommend the Deva Curl products. They have such a wide range of product types that you’ll likely find the right product for your hair. Plus, they have travel sizes of most of their products, so you don’t have to buy a full size just to try it.
Try ebay for some secondhand AllSaints dresses maybe some of their older stuff would work:
