The worst is the consultant took “Before and After” photos and is going to post it on her Facebook.@skategal - I'm so sorry we don't do pics here because I would've loved to have seen that "super glam makeup" experience.
See if a seamstress can attach the hook loops in between or shorten the band just enough to work?I have a question about bras and this seemed like the best place to put it even if it's not about personal care products.
My current band size is 35. This is not a size that bras come in as far as I know. So I ordered some 34DDD and some 36DD and the first were too tight in the band and the latter were too loose.
What do other people do in this situation?
The 35 is your measured size, right? What do you mean by too tight? If you can attach it to the first set of hooks and there's room for about 2 fingers, the band size fits but the model might not.I have a question about bras and this seemed like the best place to put it even if it's not about personal care products.

Yes, I measured 35. The 34 does attach to the first set of hooks. But it's a bit of a squeeze like when you gain weight but can still get those old jeans if you suck your gut in enough. No way I can get 1 finger in let alone two. And it is killing me by dinner time.The 35 is your measured size, right? What do you mean by too tight?

One of them was Wacoal but I don't remember which one. I like that brand, too. I have a 3rd bra that came later that I haven't tried yet.I would try another brand. I find sometimes big differences between them and I’m around your size. Chantelle is my favourite but $$$, so Wacoal is my usual. Decent wireless are even harder to find.
I have a set of bra extenders that I bought on Amaz. My set has two, three and four hooks in white, Caucasian nude, and black. They cost less than $10 for the set.I have a question about bras and this seemed like the best place to put it even if it's not about personal care products.

Just do it the normal stuff but with glittery shades!I’ve been “practicing” some eye shadow looks for my cousin’s upcoming wedding that I will be attending.
I use the word practicing loosely because everything I try looks worse than my everyday makeup that I always do.
Oh well…if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Hmmm. I might have an idea. Do you have any holographic highlight powders? If so, try “normal” shadow with slightly darker than normal in the crease, then add just a touch of accent at the inner and outer corners. And don’t forget some color under your lower lashes. Something like this, but with pink instead of yellow.I’m trying.
I’m actually trying to go more neutral with some sparkle (I usually wear bronze warm tones) but it isn’t quite working out yet.

Uhm not really.Have you tried a cat eye liner style?

And if you’re not sure handed, try gray or navy as it’s easier to hide mistakes.
I just gave up and am wearing bralettes. There's no lift, but also no under wires. I've tried just about every brand out there, spent $$$$, sent a lot back. Since I'm 69, have a belly that looks like I'm 6 months pregnant, I'm just letting the boobs rest in a sports bra like material with about as much lift as a sports bra. At this age, I don't need to impress any one. So I just look like one of those cartoonish old ladiesOne of them was Wacoal but I don't remember which one. I like that brand, too.

This is my first time buying bras from the internet. The Nordstroms near my house is gone and I didn't want to drive across the Bay to get to the next closest one.

As much as I love makeup and Sephora, I always feel a bit like “bozo the clown” when makeup staff get ahold of my face. Too much.You can always go to Sephora and them to help. That's what I do when my minimal makeup skills are not cutting it.
I can't do that because of my size. Small band, big cups. Either the band is too big or the cups are too small with the ones that come in S, M, L, etc. Also, I really need underwires.I just gave up and am wearing bralettes.
The one near me does a pretty good job. They rarely steer me wrong on product as well.As much as I love makeup and Sephora, I always feel a bit like “bozo the clown” when makeup staff get ahold of my face. Too much.

Maybe mix with gold to be a bit less green? Like mossy.For those playing along (LOL) I tried the green eye shadow today.
Looks the nicest so far but it might be a bit too matchy matchy with my dress.
Was hoping to get the Stila eyeliner today but didn’t make it there yet.
I hear the blushes are great.Spring is here and no one is glamourizing?
Sephora has a 30% sale on its collection and no one is talking about buying anything? Is the brand that bad?
I’m trying the retractable eyeliners, lip balm and hydrating serum because I’m so excited that they’ve moved away from the 2 chemicals I react to (phenoxyethanol and ethylhexylglycerine).
I saw Sonia Valencia on IG going on and on about how great the Sephora liquid eyeliner is, but it only comes in black and I’m not ready for that. Also don’t know her channel enough to trust her reviews yet.
I don’t expect a lot from the brand, although I really like its makeup tools, but I like to buy things on the site every season. (And 75% of the time never use them again, it’s a giant weakness of mine.)
