Attention please! This is why they suggest a skin patch test even if you have been using the same product for years. They can change the formula in some way. Even if they don’t change anything, allergies are often from over exposure over time. Absolutely every allergy I have is something I was once not allergic to and had no issues when exposed. Until I did.

I Was Taking Long Exposure Pictures Of The Night Sky And Thought It'd Be Cute To Get My New House In One Shot. Pic Looks Nice But... That Red Window? There's No Light In That Room
Elladine DesIsles 1 month ago
It's been a long time since I learned photography basics, but I wonder, if is a long enough exposure, could very small light sources in the room (say, a digital clock display) produce enough light over time to effectively illuminate the window in the final image?

Only Half Of The Tennis Balls In My Dryer Get Covered In Lint
martymcmatrix 1 month ago
I think the three clean balls got linted by the other three balls......the package for my lint balls (basically Velcro balls) says they’re machine-washable (!!!) up to 60°C, BUT I need new balls to remove the lint, which in turn makes the new balls fuzzy, and so on—it’s a never-ending washing cycle, I guess...💁🏽

Vanity Sizing On My Skirt
Elladine DesIsles 1 month ago
This might just be a garment with extra ease built in. If your waist is actually 28 inches, garments in a non-stretch fabric need a waistband that is over 28 inches to fit comfortably; how much over will depend on the style and where it is intended to sit between waist and hip.
