Recommendations for mom's dark spots?

Hi! My mom has had dark patches on her face for years and years now. I don't know what it is (maybe age spots or sun damage?) but apparently her doctor isn't concerned. I know she's self conscious about it, and recently started using makeup to cover them (I just introduced her to the magic of colour correction), but want to help her find products that will actually treat and fade the spots.

My mom is 58 and has quite a fair brown skintone (Indian/Caribbean), the patches are a few shades darker. I'm pushing her to use spf everyday. Are there any products that you'd recommend aside from sunscreen?

Are these carpet beetle larvae? They don't look hairy.

I've seen a bunch of these this week (specifically, under my kitchen sink) and I'm freaking out. Help!

Edit: for those suggesting silverfish, don't those fly? I don't have any flying pests (aside from my parrot), but I have little beetles that I think are carpet beetles. I figure identifying the worm thingies would confirm what I'm dealing with. I kill and flush every bug I see and clean/spray with vinegar in multiple places everyday but it doesn't seem to be helping.

Cream highlighter?

Hi! Im looking for a cream highlight from the drugstore that will give me a natural but noticeable glow on my cheekbones, brow bone, inner corner of eyes. I've tried the Elf Halo Glow Wand in Champagne and the Makeup Revolution Glass Halo in Clear and both barely show up on my skin. I really don't want to buy more products that mught not work out, so I'm looking for recommendations. My skintone is darkish brown (for reference, I wear Maybelline Fit Me pressed powder in 330 Toffee). I'd prefer a cream over a powder highlighter, if possible. Thanks!

Should I trust the cards?

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this!

​

I had my first ever tarot reading yesterday. I've never really been spiritual, but some hardships this past year had me seeking answers and advice in new places.

​

The reading told me things that were pretty spot on. They also said that I need to take action in order to resolve this issue I'm having. That action involves me making the first move to approach someone who has rejected me in the past. The cards said that the person would be happy and welcoming if I make the first move.

​

Should I trust the reading? What if I follow their advice but it goes wrong?

Dupe for MAC Eversun?

MAC Eversun was my all-time favorite blush. Its been discontinued for years now, but I haven't been able to find a replacement for it. I have dark brown skin and I find that reds and pinks don't look good on me, but Eversun was the perfect sunkissed glow. Most "dupes" I've come across are the right color but without the subtle shimmer or with too much shimmer. If there are dupes out there that aren't matte and aren't glitter bombs, please let me know!

Protesters will be rallying at PC MPP Lorne Coe's office at 3000 Garden Street in Whitby from 12pm.

To anyone who has attended protests before, what could a first timer expect and how should they prepare?
