Before you judge me, you’ve got to see the hilariawful images (and snarktastic quips) of one Mr. Leif Swanson. He’s a realtor himself and couldn’t believe the dumb mistakes homeowners made when trying to sell their homes. “The first impression is ruined by a bad photo,” he says. In other words, if your dog is pooping on your front lawn … wait 30 seconds before snapping your picture. Trust me....
These tiny white ink tats that were made for your fingers are just so subtle and delicate. Keep scrolling to see what we mean:
He has not. Despite how this looks, it’s not a Too Faced palette at all. This is the Chocolate and Peaches palette ($14.35, I Heart Makeup) from a brand that is most definitely Not Too Faced. This brand really seems to be duping Chocolate Bar palettes that don’t even exist yet! This Chocolate Rose Gold palette ($16.15, Tam Beauty) is like a knockoff-mashup of the Chocolate Gold Bar and the Rose Gold palette ($65, Sephora) by Huda Beauty....
She’s not a slob, she’s not on drugs, she looks like an ordinary, responsible, middle-class mom. But she makes one bad choice. And the people who notice her baby locked inside the car also made a poor choice by not saying or doing anything. Embedded content: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNDWN8KDVSM It can take just 15 minutes for a child in a hot car to suffer life-threatening brain or kidney injuries. Fifteen minutes is about how long it can take to run into the grocery store to pick up some milk....
Trina Cary took photos of Mel and her husband, Gabby, after Mel approached her looking for a way to feel better about her postpartum body and be a better body-confident role model for her daughters. Since Trina is a self-love pro, she took gorgeous, sexy shots of the couple to celebrate their bodies and their family and their self-confidence. The photos are amazing, but that didn’t seem to stop commenters from calling Mel everything from “too skinny to be insecure” to a slut, according to Trina....
Vlada’s story serves as an inspiration for any independent artist looking to get justice for their stolen works from larger companies with more resources and less to lose.
But have you ever considered waxing your neck? For many, the very THOUGHT of approaching the wispy baby hairs on the back of the neck is a no-no. Don’t mess with the edges! However, California-based brow and wax artist Liz Lugo will wax hair anywhere like it’s nothing. For one client, she waxed and ripped off every strand of her nape hair — the fine baby hairs around the nape of the neck....
Dressing for a concert is pretty easy — it’s a jeans and tee shirt type event — and it’s the ideal time to bring out your vintage concert tees. I’ve created two looks — one splurge worthy that’s a little dressier, and one budget-friendly outfit that’s more focused on comfort. Concert — Budget Friendly Our budget-friendly concert outfit has a more relaxed feel, and it’s perfect for an evening where you’ll be up on your feet dancing along....
And get this, the kid won over his small town school district! They are actually going to let Martin take his boyfriend to the prom. It’s just the sort of experience that should have parents falling all over themselves to help their child, but Martin’s mom and dad reportedly thought he brought bad publicity to the family. Which begs the question: what justifies a parent kicking their child out of the house?...
The letter wastes no time explaining what a hard first month the teacher had with her tiny students. “We made it through a really tough first month with tears, attitudes, unwillingness, not listening, not obeying the rules and especially, too much talking and not enough sitting in seats when asked to.” Embedded content: https://media.giphy.com/media/UPeGRtC61xNJe/giphy.gif I’m gonna stop you right there, teach. There’s no question that preschool teachers are superheroes. Working with little kids all day long takes the patience of Mary Poppins and the energy of a golden retriever....
Then, when I go to put more on after my shower, it just feels like I’m layering it upon layers and layers and layers of the gluey clear stuff that promises to save me from embarrassing pit stains, and frankly, it feels gross. And the antiperspirant has become totally less effective, too. Needless to say, I was inspired to find a solution to my sticky situation, and ohhmmmmgeeee, there is one....
According to researchers at the University of Montreal, toddler tantrums are a result of genetics … not poor parenting. (Winning.) Yep. And that would explain why some parents wind up with one kid who throws fits and another who is much more calm. Sure, environmental factors play a part too — but researchers indicated that a child’s genetic make-up played a “substantial” part in their level of physical aggression. So apparently as far as the nature vs....
I know a lot of people love baby-marketed snacks because they’re easy, there is less mess, and they can last almost indefinitely in a diaper bag. Unfortunately, they’re also really unhealthy. Take “puffs” for example. Out of three brands of puffs I’ve looked at, the sugar varies between 0.5 to 2 grams of sugar per serving, with very little nutritional value. In babies (over 6 months at least) who have limited tummy room, every single thing that goes in their mouth needs to be packed with nutrition, especially since anything other than their formula or breast milk (which is still the bulk of their diet) displaces the nutritionally-packed liquid food....
See I live in the boonies of upstate New York. For me it’s just the place I grew up, where my husband and I returned to following September 11, where we bought a home to raise our kids. But for a certain sector of Hollywood elite, it’s a getaway from the hustle and bustle. And Mark Ruffalo is one of those elite, who’s taken on cult status in our area for giving up his privacy to fight the invasion of toxic gas drilling on our quiet, pristine lands....
Downton Abbey’s Michelle Dockery (known to fans as Lady Mary, but of course) is totally having a moment, and she’s got the fashion chops to do it with style. Just check out out her recent cover shoot for Manhattan magazine! Sister-friend has star power. She’s doing her best to make sure everyone knows that Lady Mary (while awesome) is just a character. Nothing says “I am not who I play” like the super-revealing white frock she donned for her shoot!...
It’s been a test of my willpower at times, my creativity at others. But I have learned that knowing how to use all the kitchen tools correctly isn’t the real trick. It’s knowing how to hack them to make them work for you that makes you the master of your domain! Spend enough time in a kitchen and you develop your own kitchen shortcuts, but here are some of my favorites that were dreamed up specifically by moms FOR moms....
My children are not perfect — oh far from it. I feel like I’m a constant refrain of “manners, please,” and I shudder to think what they do when I’m not around. But we’re working on it, because as old-fashioned as some rules of etiquette may seem, I’m a firm believer that manners do matter in big ways and in small. It’s a learning process for sure and it takes work (no one is born with manners), but it’s worth it....
Do you think #10 is true for all babies? Image via Flashon Studio/shutterstock The supposed reason? For babies, breastfeeding is hard work, and some may not always feel up to the task and will fuss. Formula feeders have an easier time filling their bellies, so no wonder they’re more content! One possible reason is that formula contains more protein than breast milk: human milk is 8 percent protein, rhesus monkey milk is 11....
Our first two pregnancies had been easy to achieve — almost frighteningly so — so we took intense measures to avoid a third pregnancy. Now I find myself at a crossroads. We talk about it constantly, both want another one, and yet don’t want to go back all at the same time. It’s an odd and awful limbo that causes me to break down in tears every time a friend announces a pregnancy or puts up a new baby photo....
Didn’t know that? Here’s betting there’s a lot you didn’t know about winter babies. It turns out scientists are pretty fascinated by the effect the season of your birth has on your health and general well-being, and they’ve come up with a whole lot of research on what it means to be born when it’s freezing cold outside. Let’s dive in, shall we? Winter babies are more likely to come from “less privileged” families....
