Comment on The (Incorrect) Western Interpretation of Asian Plastic Surgery by Twocents

Twocents — Thu, 23 May 2013 04:08:28 +0000

Seriously, this question has been asked repeatedly and I’m so tired explaining to you westerners one by one so be grateful you’re the last guy I’d explain it to. Now check the ancient paintigs of China, Japan, Korea- heck even places with darker skinned people like Thailand and Malaysia. Thousand years ago paintings that existed before westerners came to Asia in their “vini, vidi, vici” belief, would show you beautiful girls with white-skin or lifht color skin.
This is because in farming world- people who are of noble born or rich are not required to work under the sun and thus manage to retain lighter skin color.
This may surprise westerners themselves- but before industrial reform, when places like England still depends on their farming and agricultural business… Even on those places, they consider “tanned” skin to be beneath those of upper-class level. Why? Because only peasants spend time under the sun.
Look at european paintings of their ancient royals- none of them are painted with tanned skins. So yes, the mentality existed in Europe too before the age of conquest.
After the age of conquest- white people see those who has tans as “worldly”, so rich ad upper class because they can travel around the world(thus spend more time under the sun compared to their unlucky peers who stay at home). This is the start of tanned skin era, suddenly it’s prized by westerners.
And thus you have white people trying to gain those tanned skin look, as if they’re trying to be black or mixed with black.
Crystal clear?

This is great. I’ve been testing out my daily make-up regiment to see how little I can get away with while still looking polished. It’s definitely been part of my prepping for the arrival of baby. I definitely still want to try to look polished with a kid. I’m glad to see that you and hopefully others find a way to make it work.

Comment on Discontinued! (Farewell, MAC Liquidlast Eyeliner) by KD

I have tired the Loreal gel. It works as well as the Mac. I too loved this eyeliner. I have tried Stelia (spelling), Mac’s replacement and many other liquid eyeliners. Mac’s replacement and Stelia transfer to my upper eye fold when I blink and feels sticky without a base under it. Mac’s eyeliner I think shrinks and feels like it is pulling on my eyelid making me very aware I have something on my eyelid. Very uncomfortable. I returned them both. So I too am still on the hunt for a replacement. I dont’ get why they discontinued it. Yes it got goopy towards the end of the tube but still was best thing on the market. Stayed on even when exercising as sweating! I too cannot wear black. Wore green and other fall type colors. Too bad they aren’t listening… what ever happened to listening to the customers needs… bummer. I trieda Lancome liner on my wrist that appeared to stay on pretty well. Plan on going back to buy one and see if it stays on my eyelid next. (I always wear a new one on my wrist in the store and wear it their for 24 hours before buying. Save me a trip to return if it does not pass this first test.

Earlier, Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez revealed that they have split up their own relationship over Justin Bieber close friends Chris Brown, Lil Wyane and Sean Kingston. Justin and Selena which is known as Jelena apparently concluded their relationship after a concert of Selena Gomez in Florida together with Sean Kingston.

I love your beauty posts too! I also started using UD All Nighter from your recommendation in my daily routine. (Also been loving your Friday pic dumps of your girls – soo cute.) It’s great that you want to feel good about your appearance even with your life’s busyness. I always put on a “natural” look on a daily basis, but it makes me feel so much more confident than without. I definitely plan to keep it up when kids factor in too.

I love this post (and your favourite products post) – because of your posts I’ve started using Urban Decay’s All Nighter and Primer Potion.
I totally get what you’re saying about feeling better when you look better. This past year I’ve been transitioning to a new job in a new country and I find myself using make up more to feel better and more confident.
All the best with your two adorable girls

Comment on Numbers and Angles by Donald

Donald — Wed, 22 May 2013 15:06:11 +0000

You get a few types of angles: acute angles, obtuse angles, reflex angles, right angles, etc.
in this image, they are ignoring reflex angles.
also a 0 has infinite angles, not 0.
The more sides you give an object the more round it becomes, hence to become a perfect circle, you will need a infinite amount of sides, and therefore infinite amount of sides.
And that is both on the outside of the circle, and the inside.
If you wanted to represent 0 angles, you will need to draw a dot, or a line with no bends.
Nice try though.

Love your “Favorite Products” posts and these makeup tutorials. I’m a bit bad at applying makeup so I pretty much just don’t do it. Although I feel like now that I’m no longer in my 20s I should start using a bit… Just to look a bit more grown up. lol. I’m going to check out some of the products you use. Wish me luck. lol.

When I was 4, I was running down the street with the pop-up bubbles, I popped the wand up to blow and instead the top popped off and all the soap ended up in my mouth in what remains to be one of the only memories I have from being four.
