Which snail goo? I got one a few months ago and havent had luck with it, but mine also exploded during shipping (amazon refunded it) so maybe it got.... contaminated or something who knows I may have just bought a crappy brand.

I was thinking 'that is a really off-putting brand name,' and searched for it on amazon. I would not have guessed that people spend money on actual snail slime so they can rub it on their face.

The cosrx 92% stuff. It could also explode just from pressure changes in transport is my guess. It is mostly water. sleppy posted:I was thinking 'that is a really off-putting brand name,' and searched for it on amazon.

Apparently the brand I bought just turns the lights out and comes back to pick up the goo in the morning, which is super cute. As opposed to doing anything mean to them.

Actual snail trails, trailed by actual snails. (I got the 92% reviewed here) There's a lot of bs that goes around in skincare but as a moisturizer it's pretty legit stuff.

There is a good chance I will spend part of the afternoon tomorrow looking for clinical studies of snail slime.

She uses this one, Mizon Snail Repair Cream. Contrary to the name it's not for repairing snails. It's 92% as well.

I thought the same thing at first but did it anyway. I get compliments all the time and was not anticipating that whatsoever. The first week wearing these flat out sucked because the leather was stiff, but going on the third week the leather has molded to my feet and I love wearing them. If you have the cash and want something different buy a good pair and they'll last a lifetime. These Boulet's cost just shy of $200.

Oh, I bought a throwing axe and that Die Hard activity book for a friend and another batch of gifts for my girlfriend. When you don't buy anything for your biological family, you get to spoil everyone else!

If you're serious I'd go to a place that sells boots and try them out with your insoles, or email the company if you find a pair you like and ask. Western/Cowboy boots fit weird at first as there is some slipping in the heel which goes away once they are broken in, but it's like that for any leather boot really so keep that in mind.

The only good reason I heard for spending money on chelsea boots was this fat santa claus looking dude saying it was easier for him to not have to bend over to lace his boots. They're about as ugly as those clarks desert boots goons fawn over.

I get gifted that sort of thing all the time because I like tools. If it were 3 times as big it might be a cool camping tool, but I can't even hammer small nails into a stud without just getting out my adult hammer.

I got a pair of cowboy boots when I was like 20 and wore them to the point of needing to have a new sole put on them. They were lovely leather but were perfect for winter in a city full of potholes. I got a far nicer pair of Tony Llamas a few years ago but once I discovered skinny jeans I never wear them anymore. Also I bought a laptop, or I think I did. It's been like 36h and Dell has yet to charge my card.

Those books deserve the crazy fantasy mural artwork, not the dumb font/primary colours/one picture cover. I know I'm in the minority, but I honestly hate the Josh Kirby covers. Not saying that the "minimalist" covers are outstanding works of art, but they leave some room for curiosity ("Why the hell does Santa have tusks on this book?"). The Kirby covers are just so busy and so genre-centric that people who might otherwise like the books, I've found, pass them by on the shelf because they look like little D&D manuals.
