We're rolling. Welcome back to the Beauty Files. We um previously just forgot what our podcast was called. We're out of practice. It's been two weeks.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, it's been two weeks. So lots of lots of things going on on the weekends. So holidays and events.
SPEAKER_04We've had, yeah, holidays, events. I was in my training. Yep. You had something going on. It was I think it was the holidays because of the kids. Oh, yes. And then uh so really you guys were in for a treat because this comes out tomorrow. It will be yesterday. It's yesterday right now. Yeah. So that's probably the closest we'll ever be, hopefully. Yes. To um putting out an episode. We um yeah, we'll have to talk about schedules. Yeah. If we can it's gonna be tight if we do a double today, but we'll we'll talk, we'll talk off air. We'll talk, yeah. We'll talk. So um yeah, hi. It's been it's been a minute. I've seen you, but we have not been podcasting. And it's um, yeah, we forgot the name of our podcast.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, it just kind of slipped our minds. I think we uh both have had a lot going on over the last few weeks, and life has been uh lifing. Life has been lifing, and so are our faces.
SPEAKER_04Oh yeah, our faces are. Um, so Rachel, it was pretty cool. Rachel um invited me part of the, I guess, was it a training? Were you a demo?
SPEAKER_00It was like a demo. Yeah. We were demoing um a device that we're gonna have in the office soon. Um, and so I am a firm believer that um, first of all, before you buy things, before you bring in anything, you definitely need to experience it. Um, touch, see, feel. Um, I'm a huge believer in that in this industry. Um, to even see if it's something that you like, you don't like, you need to see what the downtime is or isn't, um, best practice as far as healing goes. And so I have demoed these devices before. Um, and I will say for me personally, because I'm so good at skincare and keeping up with doing procedures and things like that, that um the setting that I have had demoed on me in the in the past has really not done enough for me. And so I had not noticed uh a huge difference or a huge improvement. Um I am a go big or go home kind of person.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, so let's set the stage. Okay. So I I come into your office. I just had a Disport Botox appointment. So I was honestly, I was just gonna be in and out. It was fine. And then oh, should we talk about the other big thing? All right, we'll get to that. You don't even know what I'm gonna say, but it's okay, we'll we'll get to that. Um so anyway, so I walk in and you're like, hey, you're doing this too. And I was like, oh, okay, what are we doing? And it's called a CO2 laser. I've always wanted to do one. Um essentially, let me just get this right. It's a more impactful with a punch than like microneedling. It's like it's an ablative, yes, yes. So, you know, I love an ablative. Like like suit me up, like let's go. So I thought I checked my schedule. I was like, I could be down for a couple of days. I'm down, let's do it. So it was myself and then the rest of your staff. Yep. And the the guy got there. Now, all the other staff members of yours were concerned with, you know, they don't want too much downtime. They didn't want to go super intense. Yeah. And then there's Rachel. And then there's me. And everyone understands that Rachel is special and she has higher standards or expectations, and like you said, go big or go home. So everyone else got, you know, the baby. The baby, which it's I'm grateful for. Yeah, but like you said, you've done it before. Yep. And you were you didn't you didn't get the result you wanted. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And I also, when I did the one that you guys did, I also didn't have numbing on. So like he did it without numbing the whole thing.
SPEAKER_04Um can I tell you, I really enjoyed the feeling. Like it like tickled. Like I was getting like tickly. Like, like tickly, like like I can't like I can't even describe it. But where the numbing did not get it what kind of reminded me of like when something is so hot it's cold. I didn't like it wasn't dying. I think microneedling is more painful.
SPEAKER_00It's microneedling is in certain and depends on what you're doing going going deeper. Oh, that's true. So I mean the penetration of I mean like guys, sorry. Sorry about the word um depth when it comes to microneedling can be more uncomfortable than this um procedure. So um unless you do what I do and Well, okay, so let's get to that. So everyone else did what we were supposed to do. You numbed at least. We did. Okay. Yeah. So um because he was freaking me out and he's like, oh my god, this is gonna hurt so bad. I don't even know if you want to do this. I don't know why you're doing this. This is gonna hurt so bad.
SPEAKER_04And that's so funny because he said to us, You won't feel a thing. I do this every day, or every he said something, he was a funny guy. Um, he does it to himself or something along those lines. I'm like, okay, dude, whatever. Just do anyway. I thought it tickled, I thought it felt very nice. Um but anyway, um amazing though. So you're you have like the microneedling redness, right? And that lasted no typically, typically, if you're not going super deep and penetrating deep, you know, we just gotta keep going with the pun. Um your face usually is red only for that day, if not slightly pink the next day. So this, you are definitely more red the following day. You look like you had just had it done for like four days straight. Yep. And now I'm looking at you, and you have how can I put this in the words for people that the listener? They look like freckles, but they're like blood freckles. Yeah, yeah, pretty much, essentially. But they're they're just on your like below your eye, like right where you're gonna be.
SPEAKER_00Yes, yes.
SPEAKER_04And you know, it's a look. You know, it's a look, and you're committing to the you're committing to the bit is is what's happening.
SPEAKER_00You know, again, I to have something done and be able to explain, like, this is the downtime, this is what it feels like, this is what it looks like. Um, you know, people see me. They walk in the office, they see me, like I'm raw dogging it, y'all. Like they, you know, I'm not hiding. This is the outcome. Um, you know, there's downtime. And there are a lot of people that, you know, are very hesitant on downtime, and there are some people that are like, you know what? I'm f let me plan for it.
SPEAKER_04Like the older I get, or the more things I do, I have no shame in the downtime. I I I I will be out and about. Yep. It's fine. I only felt self-conscious yesterday, and that's because I put makeup on top. Yeah, and if you wouldn't have I think I would have been fine. You would have been fine because you would have been like, eh, you know. And that's how it's been. I, you know, I remember that's maybe pushing like almost ten. No, that seems impossible. I can't commit to ten years. We're gonna say five. That it just that seems awful. But I remember going to Starbucks, and I'm I don't even know. I'm in my self-conscious era, okay? And I'm in Starbucks, and I see a woman, she walks in, and when I say her face is beet red. I mean, I now I know she is good, but at that time, I'm like, what the and why should she shouldn't she be like not here? Like I would be mortified and embarrassed, and now so I had to drop my son off.
SPEAKER_00Um, so he was going to his friend's house, and fortunately, um, I was dropping off to um uh his friend's dad. Now his friend's dad's wife is in the industry. Oh, okay. So he didn't see me at first, and then he looked, he goes, Woo! He goes, Girlfriend, what kind of laser did you do?
SPEAKER_04Isn't that funny? And I think. Did you did you post is this on your um I think on your Instagram?
SPEAKER_00I think some of it is. I don't know if we've done like I've been taking pictures, so I don't know if we're gonna probably share them towards the end. Okay. Um, but yeah, he made that comment to me and I looked at him because I I don't know about you guys, but this is a huge thing that's in right now is the pedophile mustache. Oh. You know, just the the mustache. Like it just, I'm just it's just not my thing. And apparently it is very popular. Wow. And it has been for about a year now, and I'm like, y'all, this is just so I look at him and I'm like, yeah, that pedophile mustache. And he looked at me, he's like, that wasn't very nice. I thought you said I I thought you would think that it looked good. And I was like, Well, your hair looks nice, and he goes, Well, so does yours. And I was like, Well, thanks. See, you can lead with a compliment.
SPEAKER_04Right. We don't have to first lead with what the heck happened to you.
SPEAKER_05Yeah. It just takes a little bit of effort. Just a little bit. Just a little bit of effort.
SPEAKER_00But I I thought that that was um, you know, a very amusing interaction. Um and still with somebody who gets it, gets it, but was like, Woo.
SPEAKER_04Well, you did kind of look woof. Like the atlas.
SPEAKER_00So let I want y'all to picture. Um, I was saying this, and we I'm gonna post about it on Instagram too. Um, we all, you know, the real housewives and like what they do and all like y'all, they do these things. They do all the things that we do, they do these things. We're not gonna see them at their worst. We might see them when they think or say they're at their worst, but they're really not. Um, so let me paint the picture. I had taken out my hair extensions, all right. My face looks like I literally rubbed it on a carpet or you know, like pretty, pretty and my face and neck.
SPEAKER_04But it's very symmetrical.
SPEAKER_00It was that's what's so funny about it. It is a perfect line.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Yeah. Well, I'm hoping that maybe not by the next this will be tomorrow, but maybe next week you'll have photos on it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. So I am so itchy. Like I'm still super itchy, and I know that Amy knows that that itch. And and you can't scratch, you just have to tap, tap, tap.
SPEAKER_02It's just you're like slapping yourself.
SPEAKER_00I like to take the tape with my nail and just stab. Yeah. Well, I can't stop now. I know if you hear that tapping, guys, that's what it is. It's that tapping. Um so I put a face mask on, I had to go into work, and then I was going to get my hair done. And my face was just it was it was itchy, it was tight, it was getting ready to just break apart and crack into a million pieces. And I gotta go to my hair appointment. So I have my hair extensions and they're in the car, they're in the middle console. I got my coffee, I got my water, my phone's right there. Um, and I got a face mask on, and my hair is pulled back into a bun. And I'm like, all right, here we go. It was a look. And it was a look, and I took a picture, and then I took a picture of the hair extensions, and I was like, y'all, we better hope that I don't get pulled over because I got some splaining to do. I kind of hope that you did get pulled over. I think that would have been amazing. I mean, so again, I think it's I I I really I've gotten to the point where if you need to see what it looks like. You need to see, you need to understand, I'm not ashamed of the things that I do. Oh, and you shouldn't be. I like what the things that I do for myself. I don't do them super often. Um, one of the reasons I chose to do this um harsher also was again, I do a lot of microneedling, I do a lot of peels, I do laser resurfacing, um lighter things. So when I did the the lighter ones in the past and I didn't really have a result, I was like, you know what, let's let's go bigger, go home. I haven't done anything like super like kick me in the butt, um, give me some downtime in a while. Um, even though the rep and everybody else thought I was crazy and said that I didn't need it, I will be 40 this year. And I do have some laxity, um, just like everybody does over time. Even if you're using really good skincare and you're doing treatments and stuff, you're still gonna get some of that. And so I was like, I don't want to look 40, I want to look 20. So let's do the damn thing and take my face off.
SPEAKER_04Honestly, I do appreciate that you have I don't want to say push the limit. You just you just went a different level than us because you are gonna get your your ideal client, it might be that you essentially, and they're gonna come in and they're gonna say, Well, what happens if and you now know what will happen. You have that that experience.
SPEAKER_00And I knew pretty much what was gonna happen, and I looked at him and I had asked the rep, like, so what is my downtime? And he kind of laughed at me and he's like, You probably should have asked me that before this. And I had in my head already pictured 10 to 14 days if I'm gonna do that. Is that what he said? He he said kind of like seven, but considering that today is Saturday and I still have a lot on me, and you know, I'm gonna be raw underneath, I'm gonna be itchy, I'm gonna be, you know, still irritated, still in that healing process, where you're not really wanting to just slather a bunch of stuff on and start back with active ingredients. Um, so yeah, I mean, I feel like a 10 to 14 day and looking like, you know, someone took your face and rubbed it on like the nastiest carpet ever. And it doesn't look that bad. It really maybe I'm just used to it, but but you're okay. So it is it is a longer downtime, and I didn't even go to like the highest settings. Like they were high, but you can go even higher. The other thing that I will say too though is that I have healthy skin. I'm very responsive. Okay. I'm going to respond better than somebody who's older. So if we go ahead and do this procedure on somebody that's older, they're gonna get good results, but their results will not be anything like mine because my skin cell turnover is so good, and I I don't need to regenerate the amount of new cells as somebody else does. So there's also that. I mean, I had a ton of you didn't see me right after. Um, I did go on a pretnisone. I heard, I heard you did. Because the amount of swelling that I had, had I not, I probably my eyes probably would have been swollen shut in the morning. Um and so it was that night was the most intense. And what I couldn't stand was that the numbing. So as the numbing wore off, which y'all, the numbing took like 12 hours to wear off. Like, and it wore off from my ears into my nose. Okay. Oh, yeah, that's right. Cause you yeah. So my last place that I was numb was my nose. But imagine, and I'm not trying to scare you guys away from this, I'm just trying to explain it to you. And it was literally only that night, and the next day I was fine. Um, but imagine when you have sunburn and it's like the worst, it's at the peak of just like throbbing and hot, and it feels like the heat just wants to explode out of you, and it's just it's uncomfortable.
SPEAKER_04Yep, I knew that.
SPEAKER_00And it doesn't matter what you take. I had like six Benadryl in me that night. I mean, y'all, I was not sleeping, it was just not happening. Um by the time I woke up, that that intensity and heat had already um dissipated immensely. Like there was still some heat, but nothing like that. And since then, honestly, it's been the tightness and now the itching and the normal. Um, it was literally, but the it was my nose. Like, I could not stand that my nose was so numb, and then my nose just started like running, and I didn't even know because again, it's just so numb. And I looked down and I'm like, why is there fluid leaking out of me?
SPEAKER_04Well, to the listener, that's not gonna be your experience, likely. But I had a great experience. I I did get my hair colored that afternoon. The the stylist was as conscious as she could be, but it did feel like it was on fire at two particular points. And I just I just smiled and didn't tell her. Because what is she gonna do? You know, she's if anything, she's gonna be like, oh my god, I'm so sorry. Like, no, it's it's fine. Um I slept on my back, yep, slightly elevated. And then sandpaper city the next day.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, that's that's what you feel with um a lot of a lot of ablative procedures that are you're gonna get out there. Um, you do not have that feeling with microneedling, but a lot of the lasers, anything that's ablative, anything that's gonna be like IPL or anything like that, because what it's doing is it's it's pulling everything out. So it's gonna give you that sandpaper texture, and then as it sloths the way is when you're gonna get that that beautiful smooth, you know, poreless.
SPEAKER_04Speaking of that, we have to film it. We promised our audience that we would film a hydrofacial appointment. Oh yes, and I have one now because that is the the second piece to this to get derma planing and a hydrofacial correct about seven days.
SPEAKER_00About a week, oh and and but that's it. I mean, a week later, a week to two weeks later, based off of a mild setting.
SPEAKER_04Yes, for you it's like you're looking at a month.
SPEAKER_00You you also have to pay attention to okay, well, how how effective and reactive was that person to it? Um, you know, if they're still having a lot of dryness and redness and irritation and if you're not doing that to them, um you're gonna give them longer. Um, but yeah, I mean, I think it was it was fun and she the look on her face and I was like, oh, you're gonna do this.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, there was some hesitation. Um I was like, you're fine. You you did say that and you were correct. I am fine and I have no in fact I please let me know if and when you're gonna pull the trigger on and get that machine or something like it.
SPEAKER_00We are gonna get that that device. It's just is it gonna be that one like that particular one and like time frame wise? Um so yeah. I'm excited.
SPEAKER_04But I'll tell you what else is exciting, and this is what I was alluding to moments ago. So I walked I walked in to Exquisite Med Spa and I audibly gasped. There is some controversy going on at the at the place, and I am here for it. I give me Let's get into makeover, everybody. I walked in. If you know you know, when you walk in, there's usually a desk. It was gone. It was gone. It was gone. And I I truly, the the gasp that you were on the phone actually felt bad. The gasp that I had let out was completely involuntary. But um, yeah, there's chairs there now. The desk is now um opposite uh corner. I I am there's actually new chairs there now. I just saw a picture because shout out to um Tessa Caffeinated Mama Nikki, yes, yeah. She was there today, and she put something on Instagram and I was like, Oh, the chairs came, they look so good. I did I do a good pick on that. Yeah, I am like I'm beyond excited. Yeah. Um, but apparently not everybody likes change, and you know, you just gotta slowly get them there. Um change is good, everybody. We've talked about this. Like you look, if you didn't change, you'd still be wearing the same hair and makeup from the 80s, some of you. And that's no good. No bueno. So change is good. Yeah. It is healthy, it is it is a good thing.
SPEAKER_00It is a it is it is. It at first I was like when so Tessa, who's like office manager pretty much, you know, she's she's she's doing it. She came to me and she's like, Listen, I have this idea. She's like, just hear me out. And I was like, Okay, all right, I'm I'm here. She is motivated and she said, What do you think if we move the desk? And I was like, Okay. It's a desk. Like that's it can always move back. It can move back, like I I just looked at her and I was like okay. She's like, really? And I was like, yeah. Um, and then she's like, Well, I also think we should like repaint things and we should do and I so she showed me her image. Um, very cute. There are lots of things that I liked. There were certain things that I didn't, which you know, again, like we're not all gonna like everything. It's true. Um, and I said, Okay, well like, let me let me think about it. Like about like the things. And then all of a sudden I found myself just going through and I was like, okay, well, we could do this and we could do this and then we could do this. And I'm sending their pictures I sent the couple of girls some pictures, and they were like, Oh, you really just got into that, didn't you? Mm-hmm. And I was like, I mean, I can I can get into it. Like if I, you know, and so more things have come. We still have painting to do and putting things together and moving things around, but I can't wait.
SPEAKER_04So it looks just honestly, and I I saw it when the chairs weren't even there yet. Like the new chairs. If you haven't been, you need to you need that the shock. It's so good. I I just I love it. Thanks. So yeah, well, you're s you're still in the shedding here. We're we're we're yeah, I guess we're past that now. We can we can say that this is technically the horse or whatever the heck, whatever the heck that is.
SPEAKER_00And your big new thing that you did, which I'm super excited and proud of you for doing with your class.
SPEAKER_04Yes, I did a thing, and I feel um I feel a lot more educated. You know, I will say I and and I should have I don't like that. My insecurities is what made me do it. I I do think had I continued down the path I was going, I think I would have been fine. However, the thing that I decided to get my certification is is twice as in-depth than what I was doing. So it's not like I just went to school to learn exactly what I was already doing. Right. I feel like I've actually gained a skill. Um I'm very excited to implement it. It's um I don't it's a sp a different kind of kit that I ordered, and I'll be here in a couple weeks. So there's some finesse to it. I need to I my poor husband, he was my um he was one of my he was my final technically. So I had my mom come, I did hers, and then he was my final, and he was extremely uncomfortable because it was like on Zoom, and every the whole class is watching, and he can't see them because my phone's turned around. So he's just sitting there knowing that people are looking at him. Right. So uncomfortable. I felt really bad, but I was you know doing the thing that requires finesse and I didn't know this, but apparently I was tying them a little too tight for him. And he didn't tell me until like days later. And I was like, that would have been nice to know. And he's like, Well, I didn't want to tell you during the so meanwhile, I'm just strangling my husband. It's fine. I mean, you know, it's fine. Um, but yes, I feel um I like I'm ready. So I need so I have we have events coming up, which I'm really excited about. Um but I do know still, I still feel like color analysis is still a very it's an old thing, and yet there's so many people that don't understand why they need it in our area in particular. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00So I just I just I have to be, I have to promote and just educate and now with me, you had me send you so with this, she wanted to, you know, do a little bit more of an in-depth and asked me to uh send her some some pictures. Some very vulnerable pictures. And then she needed to get an up close picture of my eyeball, y'all, which was very up close. It's true. Um, of both eyes. I was like, oh, hard.
SPEAKER_04Well, some people's eyes are different, right? And eyes tell stories. So apparently that is how color analysis was determined back back, like way back when it first started. Not even then. Um so we all know it from the 80s. It's been going on way longer than that. Um, but that was initially your deterrent your season was determined on your eye color.
SPEAKER_00So how accurate would you say that is for you? Not for me. Neither, not at all.
SPEAKER_04Which is why they're they're figuring out well that might work. Some people it's pretty spot on, but the majority is no. So for example, I have if you looked at my eye, you would think that I was an autumn just because they're green and they've got some things, but and your eyes being deep and brown and warm. And my husband, he has very cool eyes and he's warm-toned. Oh yeah, he's that's which is so funny-toned. That was the other joke. I I I always tell him that I failed my final because I have something called color bias. I'm so used to seeing him in cool colors, yeah. That doing the the we got down to the very last like determiner, and I'm just like, I can't see it because I just there was this one color that's my favorite color on him, even though it's and that's why it's okay, everybody. It's okay to dress out of your season, okay? But since he's made the change, I'm like, oh, okay. Like I I see it, but man, it's it's so hard.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. So you sent me a picture because you had one done on you. Yes. You sent me a picture of all winters, and there were four. Yeah. Because you sent me a did you send me a picture that had four or five? I think it was four.
SPEAKER_04I sent you. Well, so I'll say this while I'm looking for it. I was working with twelve seasons. Correct. Include so four and then three each of their subseasons. This particular um palette uh tech I don't want to say technology, just style, I guess, type, is 22. Right. Which seems insane, but but now that I've seen it in play, I'm like, you have to have it. Yeah. So the 12 seasons does not account for neutral undertone. And the there was like a person in our class who had a neutral undertone, and you could see she did not belong in warm or cool. And that is so frustrating because had I've had her in my oh yeah, there were four of them. Yeah, there were four of them. Classic winter, cool winter, vivid winter, and dark winter.
SPEAKER_00So I uh when she sends me this picture, yeah, and she says what she is, and I automatically look at it because she automatically thought you were cool, correct? So I'm looking at it and I'm looking at all of them in the bottom two, which were um what was that? The yeah. I literally like circled, um, there were two color palettes next to her for classic and then cool. And I was like, yes, no.
SPEAKER_04And I really love that because you you identified why it was the purples.
SPEAKER_00It was the purples. And when I saw that up against her, and it's just her face, there's I was like, oh, I see that as clear as day. And I'm like, mm-mm, mm-mm. It's gotta be this. And mind you, they're very close. They are, they're very close. They're very close in shades. Like they're not, um, so I can see why it would be really hard and really tricky, and it could make your eyes kind of wobble back and forth going, they have what is happening. Um they had advice on how to get over that.
SPEAKER_04Your your eye fatigue. You're supposed to close your eyes for like three seconds free open. But I'm like, I look psycho doing that. Like I'm I'm like draped over somebody and they can see me in the mirror, like closing my eyes and opening them. But anyway, so there's I have things out to people for me to like practice this system on them, you being one of them. Um, but I'll tell you what, I'm gonna start doing straight away is virtual. Yeah. You can determine, like, because they're all gonna look like that essentially, what I just showed you picture-wise. You can determine that in 10 minutes, like more or less. You know, whereas the in-person color analysis, it's a it's a it's a service, it is finesse. There's there's so if you want to, you know, indulge and do something for yourself and really have the experience, I recommend in-person.
SPEAKER_02In person, yeah.
SPEAKER_04If you just want to know and you don't want to sit there for two hours, then yeah, book a virtual.
SPEAKER_00Or if you're somebody who is not a fan at staring at themselves. Yeah.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_00And that kind of makes you uncomfortable, do the virtual first and then afterwards go in and do the in-person. Like once you once you're like, okay, and you start kind of maybe m starting to implement some of those colors into your wardrobe and stuff, and then you're like, you know what, let's just go do the full scale thing.
SPEAKER_04Or you can book instead a style appointment or a makeup appointment and learn more about yes. Or what I really I'd like to offer, I've had a couple people say that they would be interested, but it's a matter of pulling the trigger. But I would love to do a closet clean out and tell you exactly what to keep, what to get rid of, what looks good on you, what to wear with what.
SPEAKER_00I would have 10 pieces of clothing left, y'all. Like there would be nothing left. But I don't believe that, but it's it's hard. And also, I do think that um finding colors, especially d depending on what time of year it is. That yes, and stays. Oh, that's true too.
SPEAKER_04That's why you gotta be picky. Like, yeah, if you're gonna buy a thing, make sure it's like a staple.
SPEAKER_00So it's high quality. So I think it was two or three podcasts ago we were talking about this wedding that I'm going to.
SPEAKER_04Oh no, we need to this one, right? We need a follow-up yeah. Um that's what's what you all don't know. Uh Rachel tried to get out of the wedding, and her significant other was like, No, you are coming with me. And honestly, you have to. We are all invested. I linked the dresses in case anybody I got one of them. Okay.
SPEAKER_00And I tried it on. And it does not look like it did on the picture. And which one? The one I showed you, the strapless. The one that was like the one. Oh, really? This one? This one? Yeah, it's not so it looks a lot again in pictures, it looks a lot more white there. It looks a lot more clean. Oh, is it like muddied and it's like a muddied kind of and and I don't know if it's because of the size of it or whatever, and I still have to take it and get it fitted because it's way too long. Okay. I got a small, I think that was the lar the smallest you can get. Okay. Um, and when you tighten it as much as I need it to be tightened, even though I have the boobs back, right? Even though I have boobs, when you tighten it as tight as you need to, it still zips, and so the zip is loose. Oh no. In it. So there's a lot of things going on, but again, the coloring is not as it seems. Well, do you like the coloring? No, I will never wear this again.
SPEAKER_04Well, then don't don't buy it.
SPEAKER_00Or don't go return it. It's I think it's too late. So I'm just gonna alter it and then, you know, like did you order just one dress? I did because I was like, I couldn't remember. I thought about ordering two, and I went back and forth, and I was like, new I know how I am about returning stuff. Yeah, I'm terrible. And I didn't want to spend this money on these dresses, and I was reading reviews, guys. Like I went through and kept reading and kept looking and reading, and this dress does not fit um, it's it's out of the wheelhouse of what I'm supposed to be able to wear, and I'm like, I don't even care. I don't even care. But it's I'll have to try it on and send you a picture. But when I tried it on and sent a picture and even looked at myself for a hot second, I was like, oh. Yeah, but you you you do that all the time. We need you need fresh eyes looking at it. It made it, like I said, the coloring of it was like it almost just appeared like a sandy, like bait. It just it's not cute.
SPEAKER_04Oh everyone let us know in the comments should Rachel um get a different dress or you're gonna try it on and we have to let the people vote.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I will. I just I also you know, when I tried it on, didn't have my hair or anything else. Like, we're just not like seeing it. That's another thing. Isn't that funny?
SPEAKER_04My face I'll go out like this. That is actually something I used to do. Yeah. Um I would intentionally try clothes on when I was feeling my worst to see if they passed. Because usually, right? Right, when we got somewhere to go, and you're like, everything's on the floor, because you're like, I hate everything, nothing looks good. That's when you want to try on new clothes. Because if they pass the test when you feel your worst, then they're gonna ex they're gonna shine when you're feeling your best. Anyway, I don't know. We're just never I don't know, we're just never like when you're in a mood, you're in a mood. Like nothing, nothing less good. I just told you today. I I did my makeup, I filmed it, I was gonna post it on Instagram, and I was going through all the videos, and I'm like, I look yellow. Why do I look yellow? I looked yellow, not like jaundice yellow, but I had like a a a yellow cast, if you will. I was I was organizing my makeup recently, and I um I carry I have all the colors from Saint, things I'll never wear, but it's it's for my clients when they want to come and do a makeup analysis or they want to try Saint for the first time but don't want to commit yet. Um, you know, just just saying everybody. Um but anyway, I was organizing my makeup and putting my palette back together, and I put the wrong color in my palette, and that is what I used on my face. Oops, and it wasn't like enough to be like, oh, this is definitely wrong. It's just I I looked very flat and a lot lost dimension anyway. Not good, had to take it all off, and then I realized like guys, are when's the last time people have checked their makeup? Because your skin changes, number one. Right. And are you not feeling good in your makeup? Because I felt some sort of way and I could not put my finger on it. I went into in into town. That sounds so like I went into town. I went I went into town today, and I kept looking at myself in my um V mirror. What's it called?
SPEAKER_01Your when your back your rear view mirror?
SPEAKER_04Thank you. Like I instantly I knew something was off, right? But I couldn't put my finger on it, and then I went back. Um I was yellow. It was literally yellow.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yellow is not a good um. It's not great. Not a good look. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04It's not it's it's not, it's not good. Yeah. So anyway, so that was I don't know where I was going with that. I guess just, you know, you never know when you're not gonna feel good about yourself. And it's because you're wearing the wrong foundation. And I do um I do think you guys should look at your inventory and maybe upgrade uh upgrade some stuff.
SPEAKER_00I mean, everybody should uh look at their inventory and upgrade things that are not to mention things expire.
SPEAKER_04They do. Just saying, you know. Um so I had like so much oh, I didn't even tell you. I had a bird in the house. A bird. Yeah, it was um Easter Sunday. Okay. We went to church and we came back and there was shit everywhere. Like everywhere. And you and you know there's only one kind that birds create.
SPEAKER_01Right.
SPEAKER_04Thankfully it was all localized in just our living room. Um, but it was actively flying around. Like you heard the f the wings flapping, it was the animals are going insane. And so we have a fireplace, and it has the option of being a actual wood-burning stove, or not wood burning stove, sorry, wood-burning fireplace. Okay. And we just opted for gas logs and all that. So because of that, it has these vents on the side, and they're they're with these little like metal slider doors. Okay. Oh gosh. My beautiful almost one-year-old kitten has figured out how to open these flaps because birds have nested in in those vents. Wide open. And that's how we got in. So we closed them. And then like three days later, I come down and I hear a starling like like la like like made me like jump. They didn't come in. But that cat opened those stupid flaps again, and and they're wide open again. She's so cute, and yet look, there she is over there. Look at her stupid little paws. Look at 'em. She seems like so cute.
SPEAKER_00She's just a baby.
SPEAKER_04Guys, this cat gives hugs. I don't you pick her up and she gives you a hug. She nuzzles into your like where your neck and your shoulder meet. Like I cannot I just love her so much. And she's such a little butthole. Yeah in that she opened the doors and there was a bird in our house. So my husband opened a window and it went out. Went out, thankfully.
SPEAKER_00But so you gotta keep that closed.
SPEAKER_04But yeah, I have to keep checking because I haven't figured out how to keep it closed. There's no lock on it. And this stupid feline, I mean, you know, cats love birds. I know. It's a whole it's kind of a thing. Um anyway, so that was fun. So that my Easter was I had a little moment in there to clean up all of the debris, if you will, from No poop though?
SPEAKER_00Sedvert lots. Like but like everywhere or on like everywhere.
SPEAKER_04Like on our blinds, on our couch, on like drops. So how long do you think the I don't know. I don't know if it was panicked, do they like panic poop?
SPEAKER_00I mean, panic poop, is that a thing? Probably. If you think about like, you know, if you get upset or nervous and people can just like have to go to the bathroom or this bird panic pooped everywhere.
SPEAKER_04I mean, everywhere. It was I get upset just thinking about it.
SPEAKER_00So that that was fun. I think my biggest thing is like furniture. So yeah. All over the furniture. But not most of your furniture is is leather upstairs, right?
SPEAKER_04Yes. It was not on the leather. Oh. And I looked pretty it was it more on the floor? A lot of it was on the floor. Uh our desk, which is wood, our blinds, the um the uh window screen. Probably because it was trying to get out.
SPEAKER_00Of course. I think it's a good one. Honestly, it's amazing that the cats didn't like injure it. I'm actually quite disappointed in the cats. Um I'm really it probably did freak out, and they were like, oh my gosh, it's like um what's that movie where it's like the birds come out and they get you the birds?
SPEAKER_04Sandra was oh that one bird bird box or something like that.
SPEAKER_00Is that where she's blindfolded? Yes. I think it's called Bird Box. Yeah, so it's a creepy. Did you see it? I never saw it. It's creepy, and like you have to keep your eyes closed at all times because birds are like, oh yeah, birds actually come out. Oh yeah. Um so but like they're freaking scary. So I mean, like, y'all get a bird and it's losing its ever loving mind, like the last thing you want to do is get pecked in the wood to death and like Yeah, I don't know if I'm really into that. Yeah. Getting pecked to death. But yeah, these birds are like, if you hear 'em, like you don't eat you have to like run. You can't have your eyes open. You should watch it. It's I want to. It was scary. I can't with scary movies. Like I mean, it was scary, but it wasn't like I don't know. I don't like scary movies either, but it wasn't it wasn't like disturbing. No, it's not like I was gonna go to sleep and think about it. Oh, okay. I mean, maybe some parts were, but I feel like You're not selling me on this yet. You know, I a documentary, like something that's based off of truth that's made into a movie, like um what's one of the newer ones with that guy that uh like Dr. Death? Like no, um That's a podcast. Well, what's that one movie I watched recently and I only watched a little bit? So he would get the guys to come home with him, and then he would like keep them and he would eat parts of like he would do things to who what was that? Yeah, what was that? But like he hid them in their his house and his neighbor would call because she would smell things, and he was like based on a true story. Oh, absolutely. And I was like, I watched like it's a ser it was a couple, like a series, and there were a few of them because I forget how many men he did this to. And
SPEAKER_04I don't want to look it up, but I am gonna put it in the show notes when we find it. Um what can I all right?
SPEAKER_00My note is gonna be He is a serial killer. He is a serial killer and he would like hide them in his home and his neighbor that's how he finally got caught was the neighbor just kept calling and was like the smells, the smells. And so they found like all these photo albums and like he just took pictures with them. He would keep them for days. Please tell me this was like back in the 70s. Yeah, I think it was a while ago.
SPEAKER_04Um that was a time, wasn't it? I feel like all serial killer stories are from like the 60s and 70s.
SPEAKER_00But he would like kidnap them, he would go down to like bars and stuff, get them really drunk, and have them come back and be like, oh, we're gonna hook up, and then he would like drug them and then he would keep them for a little while.
SPEAKER_04This is terrible. Yeah. I hate everything you're saying. But so stuff like that. It's just like the smiley face killer. Isn't that I feel like that's a a modern day zero killer? I don't know. I don't like that.
SPEAKER_00Stuff like that kind of creeps me out more than like because I know that it really even though like you they got 'em, you still the fact that there's like humans that are capable of doing that. People are doing that. Yeah. It just is like, but like scary movie, like the stupid scary movies from back when we were kids. Oh well. You know, so I'm like, okay, whatever.
SPEAKER_04I I'm trying to think of a scary movie I've seen recently. And and if so, it's by accident. Because I don't my husband my husband will pre-watch shows and movies for me. Because he knows I can't I'm just a baby, like I can't handle it. I did watch a movie, it's not new. Um, so I'm sorry if you guys have already seen it, but it's called The Menu, and it's with what's that girl with her eyes that are like really big and too wide set? Anya Taylor Joy. I have no idea. Yes, I'm pretty sure it's her. Anyway, um she stars in it, and then there's a whole bunch of other people, and I won't say the plot, but essentially it's like, you know, they go to like a high-end restaurant, whatever, and it's just exclusive. There's only like 10 to to that are allowed to dine there, and nothing is normal, and it never gets normal. It is like but it's like disturbingly entertaining. Like I like there's some humor in it. I love dark humor. If it's like supposed to be a little comedic, I'm I'm in. Like I can't I can't explain it. I don't know. I d I don't know. I don't like serious, scary movies. Did you find it?
SPEAKER_00Jeffrey Dahmer. That's what it is. Yeah, that's why it was like I couldn't Yeah, cannibalism. Like he would keep them for hours to days. And then but the background of that, like his his parents like left him by himself. Well, his and like and so that's why he would keep these men. So who's to blame here? Is it the parents?
SPEAKER_04Don't you think a little bit, you know, depending on how people turn out, the parents should be a little bit on the hook.
SPEAKER_00Um, yeah, but yeah, he targeted mostly young men and lured them to his apartment, and that's what happened was the neighbor would call all the time. Interesting. And then finally, and the police would eventually found body parts in his apartment when he was arrested. Right. And all these pictures of like these people that they had found. Um I mean, I was like, I know the like it's right there. But yeah, I guess as a kid, his mom was like an alcoholic or something, and she got taken away, and then he was left with the dad, and then they ended up getting back together, but they left him by himself to fend for himself. And he had all these like issues growing up and at what point do you feel bad?
SPEAKER_04Like at what point because we've talked about this, you cannot let your past dictate who you are.
SPEAKER_00So at what point do you does it switch? I you know, for him, I think maybe like he became a sociopath. Yeah. You know, well, not just a sociopath, but I think he um schizophrenia probably maybe could be maybe some bipolar schizophrenia, and he was untreated. And you know, at that point, like he probably had lucid moments where he seemed okay, and then no one really but yeah, stuff like that. Yeah, I don't I don't like that. Yeah, don't watch it. I watched it and and guys, I was by myself at night at night. Oh my gosh. No, I would never set myself up for it.
SPEAKER_04You're just yeah, I was gonna say you just broke all the rules. All the rules. Set myself up for failure, and I was like, mmm. Um, should I include that in the show notes?
SPEAKER_00Was it on um was it on Netflix? Yes, Netflix, the Jeffrey Elmer series.
SPEAKER_04I listened to this. Now I know for sure this was probably four or five years ago. I listened to it was one of the Dr. Death series on podcasts. I had to stop. I don't even know what happened. It was one of the doctors who was operating on people's backs or whatever. I was so it affected me so much. Not that I was like scared, right? It was just the dark. It was just I am affected by things that just have just darkness to them. I'm clearly a vampire. Like I love my house, is super dark. I got love all of that. But anything that's like what do you call that? Like the and bad energy. Yeah. And you just know from from I don't know. So I had to turn it off. So I don't know what happened. Yeah. I don't know what happened to him. I'll never know.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. Just just don't. So okay, I want to bring out something else because I had seen this recently and somebody else brought it to my attention. Do you do you know who Dr. Pimple Pimple Popper is?
SPEAKER_04Uh yeah, yeah, I do. And um I'm I'd like to keep it just, you know, but go ahead.
SPEAKER_00It it it repulses me. Like I cannot it does. Like it just makes you ill. So again, she's a dermatologist, like she does all these procedures and like goes in and gets rid of things that most people would find absolutely repulsive and want to like faint and vomit and all of the things.
SPEAKER_04I have, I want to be clear. I have the stomach for these things. And I really enjoy it. I don't enjoy I don't get that that yeah, that yeah. I get watching like skin peel love could do that all the time. I love watching um it's actually really gross if you think about it, but it's like people that have that um more scalp? Yeah, it's like the dry thick Yeah, but there's like a video of this guy, he has this certain device and he's brushing and he's getting it up, and then I could watch that all freaking day. Anyway, go on. But yes, I I digress.
SPEAKER_00Go ahead. Anyways, I everyone's always like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. They're talking about her. So unfortunately, when she was filming, she had a stroke. Oh no. Yeah, recently. Um she's been around for For a long time and like she's a healthy person, you know, and takes care of herself. And I haven't really done a deep dive into it or really looked as to, but apparently she was literally filming when it happened and had to go to the hospital. And I don't know if I think they've had to stop since then. I'm not sure that she's a hundred percent back. Um, but it made me think about like, you know, again, she's a doctor. It doesn't matter what profession you are in or you're not immune. You're not immune to these things. Um and uh I again, like most of the time, we're not gonna hear about the average people, you know, but we hear about her because she's on this huge show. And yeah, honestly, guys, like I I just enjoyed it so much. I just oh wow. Like watching, like just peeling things, like get oh, getting it out and like seeing that is like huh, how it's like you like feel that built up so much. And then it just really and you're like So you're probably really sad because it's not one. I think they had enough to do for a while. I'm just not sure. Um, but yeah, I you know, I I hope that she is gonna recover and do okay. I mean, it's a it's a scary thing to have a stroke. How old is she? Um I would guess that she's like fifty. Yeah, that's that's way too young. Um I mean she looks pretty young. Oh, okay. So do you know her name? Is she just the I'm just uh I forget what her name is. Again, like we're talking about it, so of course I'm gonna go blank.
SPEAKER_01I know. What's her um what's she called? Literally Dr. Pimple Pauber. Okay. That's a series.
SPEAKER_04That's right. Oh, I'm I didn't silence my phone. I hope you guys don't mind the little clicks. Click, click, click, ity, click. Um, her name is Sandra Lee. Yeah. Recalls early signs she was having a stroke that she missed a stress. I will uh put this in the show notes for anyone who is late to the game and doesn't know who that is. Um click click it clicked. I know, right? I um well hopefully you can rely on some reruns. Like Yeah.
SPEAKER_00I mean, I don't watch it all the time. She's 55. Yeah, yeah. That's and she looks good. Like you can. Yeah, she looks really good. Her kids are teenagers. Um, you know. That's way too young. So um it's like, you know, it kind of just shows you like it can happen to any of us at any time, and uh, you know, even if we're trying to So which angle do you take?
SPEAKER_04Are you a carpathium live life to the fullest, or are you a prevent, prevent, prevent?
SPEAKER_00So I think I used to be like, okay, I need to do ABCD, like prevents, take all these things, do this, do that. Um and then you know, that can become very overwhelming. Um, my my dad, my mom laughs because my dad's one of those people, he's like, I need a vitamin for this and a vitamin for that, and I need to take this and you need to take that, and you need to do oh, now it says I needed a banana right before bed, and I need to do this, and and so I mean he's great. He's doing great. He's 71. Like he's overall, you know, he has blood pressure issues, but he's he's pretty healthy. Um so you have that, and then you have people like me who I I really don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs, I don't take anything on a regular basis, I don't even take vitamins. Right. Um, you know, I had to take medicine because my face was swelling and you know, venadry, and I took some ibuprofen and stuff, but like on a regular, I don't do any of that. Right. Um I feel like I eat pretty decently. Could I eat better? 100%. Could I cal like watch my calories? Could I work out? Could I do this? Could I do that? I absolutely could. But I'm also like, even if I do those things, that doesn't mean I'm not gonna die tomorrow. Also true. Yeah. So for me, I'm like everything in moderation. If I feel like I need to add something in because maybe I have an ailment going on, or then I'm gonna do that. But I'm not gonna sit here and buy 5,000 vitamins and protein powders and drinks and um let me put some uh calcium and some uh uh collagen and some feeling very called out right now. I um for me that's just not not top priority. And again, that's just me. I get it. And I also if I did those things and I had to do that every single day, and like I would get I when I start doing things, I become like Well, you get it's the opposite of obsessive to a point that I have found is can be very unhealthy. Yes, um I have found that if it the second I start saying I'm I'm on a diet, I am I'm gonna take all these things, I'm gonna do this, it kind of backfires on me anyway. Totally. So I just kind of go with the flow at this point. You have found that that is what works. Yeah, for me, and again, I I will be obsessive, I can be obsessive compulsive, and you know, the ADHD and things like that. So um it's better for me to kind of just try to go with it the best that I can.
SPEAKER_04That's so good to know that about yourself, which is good. I am way less regimented than I used to be because of that. I noticed it was causing stress, but I was that person. I wanted to be on like everything, everything. I wanted to know the latest and greatest, and I wanted to be the one doing it, and I would be the person to go to, and I'm like, yeah, I've tried that, which is true. Yeah, I still I could be. You could still come to me and I'll tell you the truth about things. Um noticed uh very unhealthy. Yeah. Um very uh I also I'm pretty sure I have a CD or at least a form of it. Yeah. Um and then I noticed the rebel in me was reverting and not doing it because I didn't want to. And now I feel like I'm in a I'm in a happy place. I'm doing exactly what I want to do because I want to. Right. Not because I have to.
SPEAKER_00Or because you want to try. Like let's just try.
SPEAKER_04But I want, I do still want things to work for me. I want to know that my coffee is not just acid sitting in my stomach. I want to know that it's got collagen and protein in it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I just want coffee.
SPEAKER_04Like, I just want the coffee. I want coffee too, but when I'm having it first and on an empty stomach, it's kind of like I know I know myself. That doesn't affect everybody. Some people tolerate it just fine. Um, yeah, I I also have cut back on drinking, um, which is by accident. Yeah. Um, it's kind of exciting, actually.
SPEAKER_00But have you noticed like this is the one thing I have always said. Like, yes, a drink or two can relax you. It can make you uh, you know, especially if you feel a little like I love drinking.
SPEAKER_04I'm not but so it makes me sick if I have too much. Anxious the next day. I will notice when I now when I do have a beverage or two, I have like racing heart the next day. I'm like, oh, I don't care for that. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Um I yeah, I just for me, I've always said this like I don't feel like I need to necessarily have a drink to be the life of the party. If I want to be the life of the party, I'm gonna be the life of the party. And that is fact, I've witnessed it.
SPEAKER_04Yes, that is true.
SPEAKER_00Like I don't have to it's not a social crutch for you. It's not. And I feel like, you know, for me, especially like drinking, um, a lot of people, it is just that's what they do, and it's socially, and um, I've not been that type of person. So for me, you know, I look at things like that and I'm like, okay, well, I don't have to do that, and I don't need to do that.
SPEAKER_04See, I'm in a worse boat. I just love cocktails.
SPEAKER_00Love them, love them aesthetically. It gives they give me headaches. Like I have like I just love them. I I think we should go. The one thing that I've one place I really want to go is Italy. Okay. Okay, I want to go to Italy. Okay. I want to do the vineyards. I want to go on a bicycle tour and like go through the vineyards and go to different places and because I've heard that their wine does not give you a headache. Their wine does not make you feel like death the next day.
SPEAKER_04Like I get deaf the night of. Like my fingers will swell like this. It's the sulfites, I guess.
SPEAKER_00I I cannot it makes me want to sleep. Like I'll drink it and I want to go to sleep, and I feel like I'm going to vomit all day the next day. And I don't, it's not just a feeling, it just it it happens. It's a it's it actually happens. So I'm like, the one thing that I've always been told is like, you know, you go, and and it's supposed to be beautiful. And I'm like, I would love to just ride a bicycle and eat all the pasta and pee pasta.
SPEAKER_04It's from walking.
SPEAKER_00I know they walk a lot, they walk a lot, they ride bikes a lot, and smoke cigarettes, and they're all fine. And they're all fine. They're all fine, y'all. Like, and there's this, there's this place there.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And they did a little Netflix clip on that too. That like everybody lives to like a hundred and something. Oh, it's like a blue zone. Yeah, it's like they're all healthy and they all do the things that you know or we are forbidden to do. Don't drink, don't smoke, don't do this, don't do that. But it's because they live in a country, and unfortunately, we do not, FDA and CDC and pharmaceuticals, and they do not follow these rules. They put crap in our crap. Yep. And they don't do that over there. So even though they are smoking and they are drinking and they're eating everything, it's all fresh. It's the purest version that they can have. And so, like, you know, their lungs aren't like, you know, got fiberglass fiberglass in there.
SPEAKER_04Did you see that like cigarettes is they're making a comeback?
SPEAKER_00Have you seen this? Like, people are like So the the reason that I would say that that's probably an accurate statement is because they're finding that nicotine is good for you.
SPEAKER_02No, not I've seen that study.
SPEAKER_00Not that it's good for you, but they're finding that the vapes are just they're melting your lungs. Well, so it's both then so much worse for you than actually smoking, which seems insane and it smells awful, but it's a true statement. Like a vape is just it's so bad. They're so bad.
SPEAKER_04It's bad and and nicotine. There was a study that came out of health benefits for it. It has to be extremely low dose. But I mean, this isn't an opportunity for cigarette companies to change their ways.
SPEAKER_00But that's like milk and eggs, remember? Milk was bad. That's true. Milk is back. Milk is uh whole it was whole milk is back in schools now. Right. But it was bad, milk was bad. Then there were eggs, eggs were bad, and butter was bad, butter was bad. Yeah, whole fat was bad. Low fat was bad.
SPEAKER_04Are you guys like hearing the trends? Like, this is why not all trends are good to follow.
SPEAKER_00How about you know, again, it comes back to real food, real stuff. And um, so again, that's why, you know, adding in all of the vitamins and you look back at like our parents, like they weren't vitamins we had. Right, but great. They weren't like our parents weren't eating vitamins and stuff like that. They were eating out of their garden. They were eating liver. Not even well you know what I mean? Like they weren't getting tons of uh vitamins, like take your daily vitamins and take this and take that, and now it's like Well, it is kind of dark.
SPEAKER_04The the um soil uh is not as nutrient dense anymore. I don't know.
SPEAKER_00You know, it's like it's all Crimea River.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Like it's just what do you throw my hands up and then? So I go back to you asked, like, what am I uh you know, we're gonna die from something. We're gonna die from something. Unfortunately, and like it's a scary thing to think about, but it is it somebody I know somebody and this just happened, it was super sad, and um, they were vacuuming in their car out and got electrocuted. Oh, no way. Oh, I hate it. Very, very young. Oh gone. We can't edit this out. And we can, but again, it's like you just never know. And instances like this, you know, like like Dr. Pimblepopper just having a short, like, fortunately she's okay. And so for me, it's gonna happen. Unfortunately, it's gonna happen, and I think that we should all just make the best choices for ourselves and our family at that time.

And then at school, they had fluoride tablets, and you would line up and you would get your fluoride tablet every day. And Hey guys, do you know what's in rat poisoning? Fluoride. Well, there's a whole conspiracy about fluoride. When you go into that.
