Oral minoxidil eyelashes 🎉…but oral minoxidil nose hairs 😔 (nose hairs not pictured lol)

Oral minoxidil eyelashes 🎉…but oral minoxidil nose hairs 😔 (nose hairs not pictured lol)

I’ve always had long thick lashes, but I do feel like OM has made them thicker than ever! On the flip side my nose hairs are atrocious, and I have to shave the peach-fuzz from my face every week or so

Our maid is cheating on her husband (our driver). Wtf do we do?

This is not a joke!

So my parents have a maid and a driver who are married. They’ve been working for my family for 10+ years and have been married for a long time. They live in a small quarter in the house and They even have a 4 year old girl who lives with us, and my parents are covering her school fees.

My sister is always very kind and friendly to the maid, and so during a conversation she recently confessed to my sister that she is basically having an online affair with some random man she found on tiktok or instagram or something. She has not met this person but she has been messaging him for a while, idk the content of those messages and tbh I don’t want to.

She said that her husband (the driver) is rude to her and she isn’t happy with him, and that’s why she’s talking to someone else.

Me and my sister are extremely disturbed by this, and I’ve told her to keep a distance from the maid and not be as friendly for now. We are not sure if we should tell our parents, or let the husband and wife deal with their personal issues themselves?

wtf do you do in this situation??

Chain stamped for both 10k and 9k gold?

I purchased this chain on eBay (uk) and it was advertised as 10k gold. Something I found confusing is that one side of the tag on the chain is stamped for 10k gold whereas the other side of the same tag is marked 375 for 9k gold.

Is this normal? Any insight is appreciated

New to selling on EBay Uk—why am I being charged for postage???

So usually where there’s a button that says “get postage label” or something like that, it only said “purchase postage label” and there was no other option. I’m so confused, because I always select “buyer pays postage”.

Maybe I’m just stupid, but can someone help?

Does anyone know the brand that makes this? Tried google images and couldn’t find anything. Pretty sure it’s vintage

The weirdest offer I’ve ever received as a seller…I offered a discount (2.50) and they countered with 2.49 😭

What is the purpose of asking for 1p less……..Or are they just messing with me

Added some sterling silver to my gold bracelet, and I’m in love!

Should I add sterling silver charms to my gold charm bracelet?

First pic is how my bracelet currently looks, it’s 9ct-14ct gold. I have this sterling silver bracelet (pic 2) and I was thinking about taking the little stars and moons off and putting them between the animals (a star between the cat and unicorn, a moon in the middle and a star between the other two animals). But I’m unsure if the two toned look would work well

Is this a duck, goose or swan??

I’m adding animals to my animal themed charm bracelet, but I wanted to be sure of what this one actually is! Bird experts, please help 😂

Starting a tiny little solid gold charm bracelet!

I love the idea of Pandora bracelets, which are so popular right now, but I couldn’t justify spending 100£ on gold plated bracelet and then 100s more on plated charms, as cute as they are. So i decided if I’m going to splurge, might as well be on real gold.

Bought this little vintage bracelet on eBay and charms and decided to go with an animal theme, with each animal representing my loved ones! The unicorn is my partner, because he is such a rare, unique amazing person. The cat is my mom, who is sassy but caring. The rabbit is my dad, who was born in the Chinese year of the water rabbit !

I will gradually add more charms to represent my siblings and in the future maybe one for a child if I have one. The bracelet itself is quite dainty, so I I may upgrade to a thicker one if I want to add a lot more charms!

My three rings in different cuts and sizes!

From top to bottom: Imolove 2ct round, Kuolit 2.5ct asscher cut, and third is a 4ct radiant cut (unknown brand). Pick your favourite!

The round one is the sparkliest, but I like to switch between the three depending on my mood :)

The ‘natural diamond’ industry is absolutely insane to me

I recently got married (with a non-diamond ring lol) so I’ve been getting recommended posts about rings lately. It’s so wild to me how many people try to tout mined diamonds as ‘better’ and ‘different’ from lab grown when they are literally the exact same thing.

I know some of these people are probably bots/ employees paid to comment this kind of stuff, but some of them are from real accounts of real people too. Crazy.

Chunky charm bracelet or simple dainty figaro?

So I’m thinking about investing in a gold bracelet with a cute little heart padlock clasp, but I can’t decide if I want to stick to a simple elegant figaro bracelet with no charms; or go for a sturdier curb bracelet and gradually turn it into a charm bracelet.

I do love cute little charms and think it’d be fun to collect them, but I’m not sure how I like the look of charm bracelets on the wrist. I feel like it’s not ideal for stacking with my other bracelets.

Opinions would be appreciated!

2 years on oral min and spiro. Not perfect but I’m so happy with it.

First pic is now, after 2+ years of oral minoxidil (2.5mg) and spiro (100mg) as well as occasional topical minoxidil and red light therapy. Second is before.

I’m pretty sure this is the best my hair can get, as I had untreated AGA for many years before starting the medication so some of the hair follicles are just dead at this point (I developed AGA in my early teens due to an eating disorder plus bad hair genes).

So even though my current hair is worse than a lot of people’s “before treatment hair”, I’m still pretty happy. It also just feels softer and healthier. I wear it in a bob and even occasionally get compliments on it (which never used to happen).

Should I add a pendant to the silver chain?

I love the way my little necklace stack looks, but I go back and forth on whether I want to add a tiny pendant to the top chain! Any suggestions? If I should add a pendant, what kind do you think would look good?

My vintage Swarovski bracelet that hasn’t tarnished after many years!

I bought this Swarovski bracelet secondhand on eBay a few years ago (and the seller said they’d had it for a few years as well) and I’m surprised that it hasn’t tarnished whatsoever! Whatever plating they did on this must be really thick and good quality.
I wear it quite often and even accidentally showered with it on a few times and there’s zero tarnish, like not even on the lobster clasp or anything.
I know it’s not solid gold as Swarovski doesn’t do gold, plus there’s no hallmarks, but it’s definitely a really good plating.
Just thought I’d share! Does anyone have the same bracelet?

Ladies who wear platinum, where do you get your jewelry?

I have been looking into tarnish proof alternatives to gold, and people always recommend platinum but I hardly ever see nice *relatively* affordable platinum jewelry for women.
Any recommendations for where to look? In particular I’m interested in dainty link bracelets, rings with moissanite or other sparkly stones etc
