Looking for mid/low rise pants for petite women

Hi everyone so I’m extremely desperate for advice. I have been massively struggling with trying to find mid/low rise pants that are not super baggy. I’m currently a college student however I’m starting to apply to corporate jobs and I’m really wanting to get my corporate wardrobe ready so I’m not scrambling. I have noticed that almost no pants fit my criteria of being mid/ low rise not super baggy and don’t drag on the floor. I’m open to bootcut or straight cut even wide ifffff it’s not extremely wide. I’m 5’1 and have a rather short torso so it’s been a struggle. I’m also open to more higher end pants if they work they work. Any suggestions are extremely appreciated.

Looking for a ballpark estimate on how much the diamond I want should cost and help sourcing ( images is to help with color)

Hi! I’ve been looking to source a lab diamond for my future engagement ring. I’m very picky about gemstones so I’d 100% want to pick out the stone myself. Ive been having some trouble finding out what is a fair price for what I’m looking for
I’m looking for a 3.5 light blue oval cut somewhere in between these colors not to dark but not to light I’m looking for a stone that doesn’t have a bow tie and has a vvs1 or vvs2 clarity and with an excellent cut. I’m just not 100% sure what this will run me I’ve seen some for 5000 some for 3000. The main thing I’ve been seeing is the cuts I’ve seen online aren’t my favorite and some of them kinda look yellow in some areas. Any help is appreciated and if anyone knows someone who has a good selection of colored diamonds that would be super helpful!

Refy vs rhode bronzer

So I’m sure ppl have seen the refy water bronzer and rhodes pocket bronzer. I know these are really different formulas so I’m more so asking about their 2 lightest shades and If anyone has tried them. I’m really cool toned and fair ( I’m a true summer) I know bronzer is meant to add warmth but I’m curious as to which one i should pick because both of the lightest shades do lean more neutral and don’t look orange. If anyone has tried them and are also fair and cool toned I’d appreciate any feedback

Is my skin barrier damaged 🥲

So I’m kinda at a loss I keep getting redness and irritation in the same areas this time they are little bumps and hurt and feel warm to the touch? Any advice or help is appreciated. Everywhere else on face is completely fine it’s only this area and sometimes the same area on my other cheek but I’m not sure why this specific area is always flaring up. Should I maybe change my moisturizer or do something else

Is it ok to use a moisturizer before tretinion

So I’ve been consistently using tret.025 3 times a week for about a month and a half I’ve been using the sandwich method where I apply a moisturizer wait and then tret. However I’ve been seeing people say that using a moisturizer before makes it less effective. I tried this week to put it on bone dry skin and I ended up getting a lot of redness and my skin now stings when I put anything on it besides jojoba oil. My question is does putting a moisturizer on before tret make it less effective or work less? Would it be ok to use a moisturizer 1-2 hrs before then apply it? Should I also try to work up to eventually putting it on bone dry skin in the future if so how would I go about that?

Looking for a concealer, primer, and a setting powder

So I’m looking for a concealer that creases less I have pretty dry undereyes and my concealer always settles into my fine lines within a hour I know a creaseless concealer isn’t out there and it’s inevitable but maybe there’s one that creases less if that makes sense. I’m also looking for setting powder that doesn’t have a completely matte finish but a more natural/ satin finish for reference I’m really pale and a cool undertone with not an ounce of warmth to me so not a powder with a warm undertone ( a lot of powders do for some reason). I’m also looking for a primer I would say my skin is sensitive, dry/ combo and I usually go for a more natural finish to my makeup look. For years I was oily now I’m on BC and tret and also about to hit my mid 20s and now my skin type is completely different so any primer that works for more dry sensitive skin would probably work

[routine help] so I’ve noticed that I’ve been getting some dark spots I believe it’s caused by my acne scars I used to struggle with severe acne but I’m now on BC and don’t have nearly as many. I’m also currently on tret 3 times a week and use moisturizer to keep my skin hydrated. but around my cheeks especially I have these darker areas I also can’t tell if some of the spots are my freckles or something else? I was looking into the vinoperfect serum but any suggestions are helpful. I also am allergic to pdrn (fish allergy found that out the hard way) and have really sensitive skin cause of the tret. Side note is there anything I can do about my dark eyelids and undereyes as well?
