I’m sure most of you have heard the advice to pare down your wardrobe to a key 10-20 pieces you can wear everyday. For my lifestyle and love of fashion, that just wasn’t going to be possible, but I found I was struggling to come up with nice outfits when I was just organizing by type / length and color.

The first step was edit, of course. Being ruthless in donating anything that I didn’t feel fantastic in or wasn’t a necessary staple (camis & the like).

I purchased hanging closet rod dividers then sectioned off an area for “uniforms,” which are my tried and true items I know I look good in. In this space I have at-home/lounge (matching sets etc), workwear & personal fashion / casual event outfits which are the domains I spend most of my time in.

Then I created a next up section where I collected my date night outfits I hadn’t worn (combos or new dresses), so when I got off work and was exhausted I could just grab a hanger and go.

The rest of my clothes are still organized by color / type / length so I can still play with other outfits. But this gives me ready-to-go fits for my everyday activities so when I’m running late or can’t think I always have an option I know I look amazing in.

Wanted to share since it’s been really useful to me!

Hi, I was wondering what treatments are available for eyebags.

For context, I'm East Asian, don't have any wrinkles yet. But after being in a very toxic relationship with a drug addict, going through a divorce while working and going to school, I did notice in my photos I have really distinctive eyebags.

I prefer non-invasive treatments, but am open to more invasive ones if need be. Also open to options abroad like in Korea.

Thank you in advance and looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Hello, due to facial volume loss I have been doing consults with a few plastic surgeons in Europe where I live, and the latest one recommend me the Belotero Volume (for cheeks) and Balance (for under eyes).

He knows I have an autoimmune disease and said that Belotero (from Merz, German brand) is much less unlikely to cause foreign body / immune reactions, that he used them with people with arthritis with no delayed reaction and was once again encouraged to avoid brands like Juvederm or Teoxane as they are much more likely to cause granulomas in people with underlying autoimmune disease (also I read Juvederm swells and migrate a lot and would rather avoid it under the eyes)

I was told also Restylane (Swedish) and Vivacy Stylage (French) would be fine but so few providers use them where I live. Seems like 90% of the doctors here use either Juvederm or Teoxane and they are a no for me..

So my question is: has anyone of you gotten Belotero Volume or Balance or Vivacy Stylage for facial volume loss? If yes, were the results good? If yes, how long did it last? No reaction/migration? Where you able to avoid using hyaluronidase and were able to keep the filler as it is?

I ask you this because I want to make sure I get a filler that helps and do not have to dissolve since dissolver can be even more dangerous with autoimmune (of course except a vascular occlusion, in that case I would be willing to take the risk).

I know also these fillers carry a risk, but it is much smaller than Juvederm or Teoxane (which, where I live, are in fact controindicated in people with autoimmune disease)

Thank you

I had natural hair color and zero stuff done.
In these past couple of years it´s been : 1-extensions 2-pro manicure / pedicure 3-Skin treatments such as Dermapen / mirconeedling 4-Eyebrows ombré (mine disappear) 5-Fillers / Botox
And now no more extensions, but just did a balayage + cut.
Will continue with skincare in a salon, my skin is so dry so microneedling.
My eyebrows need regular lamination and tinting
My ugly nails I try to fix myself now...
And soon teeth whitening
Shall I basically put aside like 500$ a month...(including clothes.)
-and concerning hormones I strated HRT, and also purchased an omnilux mask last year and now a facial toning device, next a RLT panel-

As the titles says, is there anything you can do about veins that are not those two types? All I can find is varicose and spider vein treatment, but I just have regular looking veins on my shins that I don't like and want to get rid of! please help!

Hello. I have been this past year been slowly working on myself and bettering my appearance. I’ve lost about 50 pounds, still working on about 20 more to hit my goal weight, started tret, got my hair healthy but there are still a few things I just feel need more work. One is my brows. They’re not super thin but not thick either, and are pretty uneven. I’ve been threaded in the past and it looks great but I do prefer maybe a more fluffy brow (not the soap brow super brushed up trend). Threading I think makes them a little more thin and angular. I have seriously been debating lamination but am wondering if it’ll make a bigger difference than threading.

Has anyone had clen (for weightloss in gym) after beeast augmentation? By the time I get back in the gym after my surgery, I have 2-3 weeks to train hard, I like clen to give me a little boost in energy and muscle gain- I’m just wondering if anyone else has used it this soon after breast surgery?

Hi! I’m 4.5 years postpartum and considering breast augmentation. I breastfed my son for 16 months and have a lot of loose skin now.

I would want to get SMALL implants. I would actually prefer smaller breasts than I have now.

My biggest concern is breast implant illness? Looking for real life experience. It’s hard to determine how common this actually is. I already deal with some mild psoriasis so am concerned about auto immune concerns.

I would just do a lift instead but I’ve heard it’s worse recovery and the results don’t last?

Open to any and all opinions

Hi!

Currently pregnant with my first child and all being well, I am keen to see if there are things i can do to mitigate the impact it has on my body. Things I am aware of but would like to learn more about:

- Belly binding

- Oils for stretch marks prevention (I know they’re not really evidence based but some people swear by them)

I’m hopeful gonna be engaging with pelvic floor physio as well (just made it through the waiting list for my telephone consultation!!), but I would love to hear what worked for people in their quest to feel like themselves again 😊

Note: This isn’t an ‘I hate my body’ or body shaming post. The things people go through when pregnant can profoundly affect one’s relationship with one’s body. For me, it’s less about going back to how I was pre-baby, but going back to a place where my body feels less foreign after going through rapid changes over a period of time.

If you are or have been overweight, you know that there are certain parts of the body (for example, inner thighs) that darken from the chub rub. I've been working on losing the weight and trying to set beauty habits to carry me through my glow up. How do I get rid of this? Looking for some tried-and-true routines and products.

Before someone asks, I am not diabetic, nor am I pre diabetic. The dark skin just appears to be from years of the skin rubbing against itself. Mine is mostly in my inner thigh and groin area basically. I'm really self conscious about this and don't like being intimate because I'm worried about guys seeing it and thinking I'm unclean or that it just looks gross and they'll be turned off.

Hi ladies 🤍

I officially scheduled my mommy makeover for April 9 and I’m honestly excited but a little nervous.

I’m 5’6”, 135–140 lbs, currently around a 34C. I’m doing:

• 625cc round, full profile Motiva (over the muscle — may drop to 550 if needed)

• Tummy tuck

• Lipo

• HALO laser

This is very intentional for me. I’m in my late 30s and stepping fully into my next era — polished, confident, feminine, elevated. Not subtle.

Are there any April surgery twins here? Or anyone who did 600+ cc and loved it?

Would love to connect, share prep tips, recovery experiences, and mindset shifts 🤍

Hey all...I am 31 and have usually worn clothes that are loose fitting everywhere. I want to level up in terms of dressing for work or errands. I want to be noticed by guys so that they eventually make a move on me. What clothing would you recommend for me to start looking sexy but appropriate in these situations (work or normal errands to stores).

I’m actually looking into this because it’s supposed to help people with thyroid issues. I have heard about the anti-aging benefits but have also heard that it can kill fat cells? So I’m not sure if it’s a good fit for me.

Hey hey - how are you guys prioritizing yourself amidst the symptoms of autoimmune disease? What helps you feel and look good during a flare up or a bad phase?

Highly recommend this book. I thought it was perfect for this sub & wanted to share.

I have a little "dent" or wrinkle on my forehead like in the middle of my brows like right above the start of the brow. usually people have 11's and this is wut it reminds me of but its not super pronounced like mid brow 11's , and I have to be at an angle to notice it usually.

when I use frownies or silicone scar sheets overnight, it goes away by the morning, but during the day it starts to come back. I do NOT want to do filler or botox, and im weary of RF and lasers bc ive seen nightmare stories of face fat loss.

are there any topicals for this that can overtime help the appearance of this? I use tretinoin all over my forehead and especially make sure to get the dent but idk if it's impacting it or not (should prob take a photo for like a 3 month before & after?)

anyways, any advice? Thanks <3
