A massage therapist put a small hot towel over my face once. I loved it and have always wanted to recreate the experience at home. Running towel under hot water hasn't been great. I wonder if folks have recommendations for a small, good quality hot towel steamer for home use? Thanks!

I’m coming to terms with the fact that bras are not a BuyItForLife item, sigh. The bands on my current ones aren’t doing anything for me and I’m ready to get new ones.

Where do you get ethically made sports bras?
Many brands don’t seem to carry 28E, so I’m happy with 30DD. What are you favorite brands that carry this size?

I tend to wear basic colors and need different styles (high neck, strappy, smooth, etc) for different activities. Can’t wait to see the answers!

Edit: I’m in the US!

My old sports bras are all getting out of shape so today I measured according to the guides and learned so much about bras!

Here are my measurements. My shape is slightly fuller on top. Haven't learned about other stuff yet but I would guess shallow.

Loose Underbust: 29
Snug Underbust: 28
Tight Underbust: 26.5
Standing Bust: 34
Leaning Bust: 35
Lying Bust: 34

Suggested Starting Size: 28DDD/G US (The sister size of 30DD/DDD may be more comfortable.)
Suggested Starting Size: 28E/F UK (The sister size of 30DD/E may be more comfortable.)

Most of the bras I've owned are from brands that carry A-D sizes, so I have no idea where to shop now. Also I am in the US. Some brands I've seen recommended seem to be in other countries. Considering it might take me a few tries to get it right, something more local would probably be easier.

I am looking for

1. sports bras for dancing and circus arts. I am active multiple days a week so would like to have several different styles to rotate through.
2. an everyday bra or two to wear under tight shirts. I am braless most days but would like an well-fitting, invisible under tight top bra for some occasions.

Thank you!!!

My partner is overweight. I love him and find him attractive as he is. He enjoys food and has trouble stopping eating. He doesn’t feel good about his weight and has a plan for weight loss that includes eating at a slight deficit and regular exercise. This plan has worked for him before, usually after a breakup when he has the time and motivation to commit to it.

We are happily married. I have always been slim and find it very easy to stop eating when I’m full, which is very different from his experience. I try to remember that intuitive eating isn’t helpful for him. I generally support his plan, but it’s difficult when he’s tired from work, hungry and groggy sometimes irritable from eating at a deficit. I worry about his health and the wish he could feel good in the body he has. I sometimes worry about disordered eating, even though he is being sensible in his plan so far.

It’s also hard because when his energy is low, he doesn’t want to have sex. Or he wants to, but is just tired. My sex drive has always been higher than his since we started dating, so this makes things more difficult for me.

We have pretty good communication and have talked about this, but is there anything else I can do besides accepting that he’s working on himself and just wait for things to get better?

Length of relationship is 3 years.

Very grateful but still kind of in a constant panic waiting for something to go wrong.

Does Uniqlo have any socks that fit women’s size 6.5? It all seems too end at 7.5 on the smallest side.

Hi! I do fans and poi and want to add a hoop. Where should I get my first hoop? What are importance things to look for in a good hoop?

I have a mayari with unknown kind of leather and a Boston with oiled leather. Will a horsehair brush be enough to clean both of these shoes plus the footbed? I don’t need to sand the dark marks away, just want to get ride of some buildup and dirt.
