Laptop, AirPods/earbuds, portable charging system for phone/laptop

Laptop stand (changes the game, tbh)

Protective laptop case/sleeve

A planner and a black pen/another color pen for marking up your notes

Another notebook/pad for random notes or a running to-do list

A pen cup holder

A ziplock of hair-ties

Disposable toothbrush, Listerine strips, and travel-sized container of floss picks

A discreet feminine hygiene pouch or two with at least 2 products in it (you can use the additional pouch for extra underwear to be safe, honestly)

A simple, easy to zip and clean makeup bag

Lip balm

Hand cream

Vaseline/Aquaphor/Homeoplasmine

Mini stick antiperspirant or deodorant wipes

Travel-sized tweezers

Lint roller

Pouch for keys, wallet, IDs, etc.

Blue-light glasses (for long days in front of a screen)

Real Skincare Guide

Level 1: breakouts, non-painful, a little scarring

Minimize your skincare routine, all you need is an oil cleanser (if you wear a lot of makeup) than a good foam cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen. Repeat the same routine before bed just without the sunscreen.

Wear sunscreen everyday!!!

Always apply more moisturizer than you think you need.

Drink a lot of water (2-3LT)

Get consistent sleep

Take a multi vitamins to balance your hormones. I recommend the One-A-Day Woman’s Vitamins (get a real pill cause the gummies don’t have enough iron)

Work on your stress (breathe work, meditate, journal, yoga, walks, going out with friends, therapy, etc)

Look at what body oils/shampoo/conditioner you are using. Could be your akin reacting poorly to something in there.

Level 2: consistant breakouts, acne, scarring

All the stuff for Level 1 apply.

Minimize your skincare routine and than slowly add back in stuff like hydrochloric acid and retinol. Having an elaborate skincare will just make your skin worse. First, focus on healing your skin barrier.

If you are a teenager, it just might be your hormones/growing pains. It will go away eventually.

Pimple Patches work and are especially good if you are trying to stop touching your face.

Wash your pillow cases every 1-2 weeks.

Try to sleep on your back.

If you pop a pimple than apply an antibiotic ointment.

No point in using anti-aging products if you are under the age of 25. It just won’t do anything for you.

Note that if you take in a lot of nicotine you will breakout. If you smoke and you have bad skin, it probably won’t improve unless you quit or lessen the dosage.

Level 3: painful consistent breakouts/acne/scars, redness, irritability, hurts,

Go see a dermatologist!

Acne is can be a real problem. If your acne is painful seek professional help.

If Accutane is recommended, than I would do it. Based only on the experiences of my friends, I have seen great results after a couple months. There are side effects and it is not for everyone but if a professional says you should than I might consider it.

No topical treatment is going to make those scars go away. You are going to need to laser resurfacing which is like this secret treatment rich people do to clear up their skin. It is expensive but really works. Beauty brands want you to think that the right cream can clear up your skin but if you have bad scarring you are only going to see real results with laser treatments

All of the above recommendations still apply

Your acne does not take away from your beauty or your worth as a human being. Remember that acne is normal and social media is fake.

Product Recommandations:

I love your skirts! I love how spinny they are, and they're always so cute 😍 I wanted to ask, have you thought about making maxi-skirts? I've been trying to find a spinny, full length skirt for a long time (gotta love feeling like a princess, lol) but I can't find any that are plus sized. I know that would take a lot more fabric and time, so I totally get it if not.

Have a great day!

i do maxi skirt collabs with @freshhotflavors a couple times a year, and they just restocked a couple of my designs! you can find them in the FHF store

Anyone have any recommendations for good quality ear defenders/noise canceling headphones that look just like regular headphones? I don’t want to get harassed at school but I don’t want to keep having shutdowns either.

Mini post

I have been using this body wash and lotion set and it’s gotten me so many compliments on my smell. It was quite popular awhile ago but I want to bring its hype back. People are always saying how I smell like literal strawberries 🍓 🕯️

The set is the strawberry milk body lotion and body cleanser. There is also a foaming face cleanser by the same brand that I also recommend.

My Favorite Makeup Bag Finds~✮

Starting off strong with Juicy Coutures fuchsia leopard print weekender makeup bag! I love the color and sleek design, plus THAT PRINT ✮ What I love about this one is that its only 30$ (US), which is appealing to someone with a wallet full of old recites and dust-mites.

You can find it here > Weekender Makeup Bag

Here is one of Victoria's Secret's many cute bags, but I chose this one for its sturdy style and the ever ICONIC ✮I love the double layered zippers on top, and the thick handle on top, I can totally tell my makeup would fit perfect in here! This one is priced at 54.95$ (US), which is definitely on the higher end for someone like me, but I might just have to close my eyes and think of a way to justify this splurge.

Pick it up here on their site > Makeup Train Case

Of courseee I hadda hook up my Sanri-hoes! Found these cuties ✮ on the officially Sanrio website, with both a Pink and Red option. Though slightly different designs, both come in priced at 26$ (US), which is stunning judging that one hello kitty lip oil is like 14$ and half a liver.

Red here > Dome Makeup Travel Pouch

Pink here > Makeup Travel Pouch

Lastly, I got an affordable Amazon option for my budgeting babes (*cough* me *cough*) I loveee the multilayered aspect to this bag ✮! You could totally divvy up your makeup and skincare in here, which as the resident messy girl, sounds really helpful. The print is so cute too! (Ya'll will learn for my love of cheetah print after a few posts LOL)

You can cop this bad boy here > Double Layered Makeup Bag

As always, these product recs are in no way sponsored, just for funsies~!

I need a good two way radio with hand crank and solar charging for 2 way communication during time travel incidents (no radio/cell towers, no power, etc). I would prefer a walkie talkie set on FRS bands, but I can't find any that don't rely on lithium ion which won't work for obvious time travel reasons. Am I going to have to buy GRS band and get my amateur radio license?

i have quite a lot of hair breakage from going to bed with wet hair which i am trying to stop doing (i don’t use heat), do you have any (preferably affordable) product recommendations that could help with this in the time being?

Yup! So with hair breakage, the big goals are to have a gentle wash routine and to deep condition the hair. In general, you want to avoid shampoos that contain sulfates and opt for products that are designed for damaged hair instead. You also want to make sure that you're shampooing just the scalp, not the mids and ends of the hair. Introducing a deep conditioning treatment and a leave-in conditioner into your routine will also help to deal with the breakage.

The best products for damaged hair tend to be from the Olaplex line, but those can get pricey. So instead, I would try the Monday Haircare Moisture Shampoo or Tresemme Keratin Repair Shampoo, Dove Hair Therapy Conditioner for Damaged Hair Breakage Remedy, Pantene Hair Mask Miracle Rescue Shots, or the tgin Miracle RepaiRx Anti-Breakage Serum, and the Sun Bum Revitalizing 3 In 1 Leave In Treatment.

Other things you might want to consider are:

Getting regular trims: trims can help get rid of split ends, preventing them from traveling up the hair shaft and causing more breakage.

Avoiding tight hairstyles: Styles like tight ponytails, braids, and buns can cause stress on the hair and lead to breakage. Go for looser hairstyles instead.

Being gentler while brushing: Use a wide-toothed comb or a brush with flexible bristles to avoid unnecessary tension on the hair. Start from the tips and work your way up to the roots. If you can, wait until your hair is dry to brush it.

Protecting your hair from the sun: UV rays can damage the hair cuticles, leading to breakage. Wear a hat or use hair products with UV protection (like the Sun Bum 3 in 1 treatment) when spending time in the sun.

Using a silk or satin pillowcase, or putting your hair up in a silk wrap before going to sleep: friction is one of the main reasons for manual damage that leads to split ends and breakage, and a silk or satin pillowcase can help to reduce that friction. This one is $10 on Amazon and has good reviews.

Finally, breakage can be a symptom of a larger problem, such as nutritional deficiencies or an underlying medical condition. If you're working to repair your hair but still noticing a lot of breakage, you may need to supplement biotin, vitamin D, or omega-3 fatty acids or speak with your doctor, especially if you're noticing other symptoms.

hello, gorgeous. im starting college soon and im on my way to become a femme fatale, so i have two questions for you

1. how can i incorporate the femme fatale way of being into academia?

2. what things/brands are affordable for a college student? i’d love to wear high-quality clothes like the ones you recommend, but i can’t afford them. are there any other products/services that i could add to my routine for a cheap price?

thank you so much in advance xx

Hi love! Congratulations on starting this new chapter of your life <3

Here are my thoughts:

1. how can i incorporate the femme fatale way of being into academia?

Understand the importance and power of:

Knowing how to learn, study, and get in the practice of regularly acquiring new information

Understanding how to work through concepts, set goals, and clearly communicate your thoughts to better articulate a concept or build a case/argument

Becoming a better writer, reader, and remaining focused/prioritized when it comes to your tasks and to-do list

Learning how to absorb information and apply this knowledge to different situations/areas of life through these acquired skill sets/methodology

Developing important self-presentation skills through presentations, written/verbal communication/networking

Refining your aptitude for pattern recognition, gaining more insight into human nature/what makes people tick, and learning how to persuade/seduce others through your words/insights

2. what things/brands are affordable for a college student? i’d love to wear high-quality clothes like the ones you recommend, but i can’t afford them. are there any other products/services that i could add to my routine for a cheap price?

Totally get it! Budgets are particularly tight for many college students.

For a service option, I would say I recommend Rent The Runway (I believe it's around $100/month for 10ish items rotated throughout the month).

For more affordable alternatives, I would say your best bet is to dig deep into the sale sections of department stores/The Outnet and similar e-commerce sites by utilizing all the filters you need (budget, size, colors, item type, etc.).

If you're searching for more affordable brands generally, I would say some of the highest quality affordable brands available are:

Express: The "Body Contour" line has amazing basics and I love their Editor High-Waisted Flare Trousers (these might be too professional for what you need right now), but I've heard they have very solid denim and shirting options, too!

Oak & Fort (I prefer them to Everlane/Abercrombie TBH)

Quince (for washable silks, cashmere and basics for $40-$70)

4th & Reckless (a lot of their items are on sale for $25-$50!)

Because of Alice (Outlet) – mostly under $70

Pixie Market (sale items are often around $50-70)

Banana Republic (especially the sale section)

Everlane/Abercrombie have their gems – some of the trouser/outerwear quality is iffy, though

Lioness/DISSH

Frankie Shop (in-house brand – on sale it's similar to Mango prices)

Maniere de Voir (mostly under/around $100, TOP quality for the price)

Shoprumored

Mango/COS (better than other fast fashion choices, IMO)

Hope this helps xx

Hey just a friendly reminder. This is why we patch test products 🫢

About to try a new brand of body wash and one of them peeled the top layer of my skin off in less than a minute. Good thing I didn’t take a whole bath with it 😬

Just a promo for my bra supplier! I've been getting them here for years. No need for an underwire. They're a small business that does excellent, personalized work. It does take a while for your order to come, because they make to order. And it is pricey, though not much pricier than uncomfortable crappy bras from the department store. And they last for years!

My product recommendation for polishing. Someone suggested these to me and it changed my life. I’ll be doing this to all my dice from now on!
