Prissy Girl Beauty Regimens 🎀

my prissy girl guide to beauty services and building a beauty lifestyle that fits you 💗

Skincare:

Essential Skincare Routine ❤︎︎

twice daily, in the morning and at night

daytime: gentle cleanser, toner, serum, eye cream, moisturizer, SPF

prep and protect skin

nighttime: double cleansing with oil and cleanser, exfoliation, treatments, moisturizer

wash away the day and help skin accept treatments and actives during your beauty sleep

products will change depending on skin type and goals, but sequence will more or less stay the same

Face Masks + Treatments ❤︎︎

Face Masks -

typically done at home 1-3x/week

clay, gel, mud, cream, liquid

my fav masks at home:

aha + bha liquid mask by the ordinary: a literal overhaul of my pores. it’s refining and helps reduce texture and hyperpigmentation. 1-2 x/week

korean modeling mask: i use this after doing everything in my routine. it’s super cooling and smooths my skin out. the low temp of the mask reduces flushing of my skin and helps the steps in my routine absorb better. 2-3 x/week

Treatments -

done either 1-3x/week and/or exclusively at night

consumer grade Retinols, AHAs, BHAs at high strength

little extra things i like to use to enhance my routine:

Chemical Peel: application of medical grade AHA, BHA, Lactic Acid, Fruit Enzymes, or Retinol to peel away top layers of skin over the course of 1-2 weeks

pore refining, brightening, and anti-aging

after care is crucial. skin will be peeling and sensitivity to sun is increased. SPF MUST be used. it’s heavily advised that clients stay home for the first few days.

HydroJelly Facial: facial made of electrolytes, algae, organic white grain oat flour, rice flour, and white willow bark powder. leaving your skin hydrated, plump, and nourished. forms a vacuum-like seal that compresses facial contours.

Hair:

Hair Care ❤︎︎

Wash Routines:

curly textured: wash and condition every 2-3 weeks, deep condition every 1-2 weeks

straight: wash and condition every 2-3 days, deep condition every 2-3 weeks

Styling ︎❤︎︎

Hair should have a style everyday! At home hairstyling is limitless and really depends on your taste and lifestyle. The everyday woman does her own her once every 1-4 weeks using natural hair products, heat, or other tools.

Professional Stylists:

hair is styled every 1-3 months: uses heat to straighten or curl, extensions to lengthen and add volume, shears to maintain/attain a shape and length

trim ends: every 6-8 weeks

hair color: touched up roughly every 6-8 weeks (depending on how fast your hair is growing and how fast your color will fade)

Silk Press:

after a clarifying wash and deep conditioning, natural hair is straightened using flat iron and/or pressing comb, then usually curled in feathers or pin curls to preserve the style

lasts 3-4 weeks depending on maintenance

preserved by wrapping hair at night, keep hands out of hair, and using a wide toothed comb only

can be further styled with different kind of rollers, or with pin curls

Braids:

afrocentric hairstyles typically done to protect hair while maintaining beauty

lasts 3-8 weeks

styles include knotless braids, faux locs, stitch braids, french braids, etc

Extensions:

hair added to natural hair to enhance length or volume

can be done at home with patience and proper materials

sew-in extensions: (my personal fav) 1-2 months

your natural hair gets braided down flush to your scalp and the bundles are sewn on by the wefts in a flat pattern typically with a section of hair left out to cover the wefts $100-600

microlinks: up to 4 months

i-tip extension is added to hair using micropliers, clippers and loop tool. takes far longer than most extension methods but looks the absolute most natural $500-1000

tape-in extensions: up to a year, touch ups every 4-6 weeks

medical grade tape is used to attach extensions to small sections of hair $200-400

clip-in extensions: 3-6 months

extensions are clipped on by the wefts. the hair itself can last up to six months, but it’s not recommended to sleep, shower, or swim with the extensions in $50-100

Natural Styles:

all last roughly 1-2 weeks at most. allowing hair to completely DRY is crucial for these styles. your natural hair can be further changed in styles like buns, puffs, etc once dry

natural hair essentials: scalp oil, leave in conditioner, detangling brush, wide tooth comb, curling cream, styling gel, edge control and edge brush

wash n’ go

wash and detangle, then use leave in conditioner to keep hair moist. oil on the scalp and ends is recommended for growth and healthy ends

bantu knots

a traditionally african style where the hair is cleanly sectioned (usually parted in a cute pattern) and twisted into knots. style can be worn just like this or taken down for curls

braid/twist out

a specific pattern of curls is achieved after hair is twisted or braided with curl preserving products. end result depends on how big your twists or braids are

roller set

hair is sprayed with water and curl cream applied before roller of your choice is added. hair is left to dry usually overnight for springy well formed curls

Brows and Lashes:

Brow Shaping ❤︎︎

in salon or at home

Waxing - every 3 weeks

Threading- every 2-3 weeks

Razor Shaping - weekly

Brow Enhancement ❤︎︎

Tinting - monthly

can be done at home or by pro in the salon

Microblading - every 1-3 years + annual touch ups, exclusively professional work

cosmetic tattooing using a manual tool with nearly invisible hair-like needles to inject pigment in brows to create your desired brow look

Lash Enhancements ❤︎︎

*done exclusively by professionals

Lifts - every 6 weeks

basically a perm for your lashes to curl them semi-permanently for lashes to appear longer

Lash Extensions - new set every 6-8 weeks, fill ins every 2-3 weeks depending on quality and style

false individual strands of lashes glued to natural lashes to create semi-permanent length and/or volume

lash baths: wet lashes and apply a small amount of gentle cleanser or a “lash bath” to lashes. cleanse lashes and eyelids for about 10 seconds. hold a towel under your eye and use a nozzle bottle to flush soap and bacteria from lashes then dry with a disposable lint free towel. finish by brushing your lashes with a spoolie. daily.

Lash Styles:

Classic: one lash on each fan, thin lashes

Volume: fluffier lashes with more lashes on each fan

Hybrid: uses classic and volume lashes to make an alternated look

Russian: volume lashes made with very thin individuals, 5-6 extensions per natural lash, fanned out look

DIY Lash Extensions - lasts about a week (sometimes longer)

lash fragments or individual wisps are glued either under the lashes or on the lash line. KISS Falscara is a product that makes this concept simple and easy

Nails:

all these services can be done at home with the proper materials and KNOWLEDGE

Classic Manicure ❤︎︎

every 1-2 weeks

nail service that consists of soaking hands in warm soapy water then drying them. nails are trimmed, filed, and buffed. cuticles are pushed back before applying nail polish (base coat, color, top coat), then finally cuticle oil is applied.

nails can be enhanced with rhinestones, glitter, or charms and attached with uv gel or nail glue

my fav styles are pink, cream, white, black and any french tip using those colors

Pedicure ❤︎︎

every 2-4 weeks

sister to the classic manicure, but can be upgraded depending on materials. steps are similar to manicure, except feet are scrubbed and exfoliated before feet are washed and dried to apply nail color

regular polish, acrylic, or gel can be used on toenails

Gel or Shellac Mani ❤︎︎

every 2-3 weeks

same process as the classic manicure, but traditional nail polish is replaced with uv base coat, gel or CND Shellac polish, then uv top coat that’s cured in a UV or LED lamp

longer lasting and more strong/3d than classic mani and is typically removed by soaking in acetone

Apres Gel-X Nails ❤︎︎

every 2-3 weeks

my personal fav at home nails using the artme yoko matsuda nails. after doing a classic mani sans polish, you apply a dehydrator and primer to prep nail for gel. then you apply builder gel to your natural nail and cure. then you apply that same builder to the nail extension after etching it using an electric drill or acetone. marry the gel to your nail and cure. then just shape to your liking and top with uv top coat. tutorial here

Acrylic Nails ❤︎︎

every 2-3 weeks, nails are fully grown out after 6 weeks

manicure done with liquid monomer and acrylic powder to build and extend natural nail, then polished with color or just a top coat if desired

Russian Mani ❤︎︎

every 4-5 weeks

essentially a gel manicure, but more invasive. the eponychium is snipped away so polish can be applied more closely and flush to the cuticle. this aids in visuals and longevity

service is seen as risky because the skin is more susceptible to fungal or bacterial infection. this is actually how i do my nails at home.

Body:

Bathing ❤︎︎

2x daily

self explanatory, we all know how to bathe. i have other posts that talk about my shower and bath routines.

use a gentle cleanser then a scented body wash to complement perfume and smell fresh all day.

if needed, you can use body soaps with actives like aha, bha or retinol to exfoliate or treat skin at night

exfoliation - 2-3x/week. using scrubs, loofahs, bath brushes, etc.

Hair Removal ❤︎︎

shaving - 2-3x/week

waxing - every 3-5 weeks

sugaring - monthly

ipl device - a device that uses light therapy to slowly destroy hair follicles and unwanted pigment in skin. i use mine after every 5-6 shaves but i could really use it more often.

Vajacial ❤︎︎

1-2x/month

a “facial” for your lady area

the esthetician will first wax, then cleanse and apply an enzyme exfoliant. then they extract any blackheads or ingrown hairs from the area before applying a soothing mask usually in the jelly form.

Moisture and Hydration ��︎︎

body cream or lotion - daily right after bathing to hydrate skin

body oil - daily to seal in moisture and protect skin from debris and dryness

masks - weekly to address particular skin concerns

ex. when i was having eczema flare ups on my back, i used a dead sea mud mask every 1-2 weeks to help treat it

done at home or at spa

glycolic, clay, mud, salicylic, etc.

Enhancement Procedures:

the goal is to look younger and balance facial features. all these services are exclusively done by professionals usually in a medspa and are widely considered luxury.

Botox ❤︎︎

every 6-8 months; between brows, smile lines, outer corners of eyes, etc

discourages muscle movement to reduce wrinkles

Lifts ❤︎︎

lasts about 10 years; face, neck, brow, eyelids

skin is lifted to desired look, then excess skin is removed

Fillers ︎❤︎︎

every 6-12 months; under-eye, lips, jawline, wrinkle sites, cheekbones

injects acids (usually naturally occurring) like Hyaluronic Acid and Calcium Hydroxylapatite to add volume to your face

Body Contouring ❤︎︎

every 2-4 months until desired results are achieved

non invasive liposuction to achieve desired physique

CoolSculpting - cryolipolysis freezes fat cells for the body to the metabolize and and remove them

SculpSure - essentially the same as CoolSculpting, but uses heat and laser technology to destroy fat cells

Laser Hair Removal ❤︎︎

every 5-6 weeks; bikini, underarms, legs, arms

touch ups done every 1-2 years

hair growth is inhibited by exposing follicles to light at frequencies that kill them

Building the Regimen 🗒️💕:

when making appointments with your “glam squad” you can stagger your services by week depending on what’s being done. for example you can get your mani and pedi done one week. then your facials, brows and lashes another week.

Things to Keep in Mind 💭💞:

these frequencies won’t be the same for everyone depending on personal wants, budgets, etc. but will most likely land somewhere in the ranges i gave. if you need touch ups or redos any sooner than i mapped out, then the service most likely was of poor quality.

anything done at home may or may not be up to the level of detail and longevity as salon or spa work. if you see yourself doing the majority of your beauty maintenance at home, this can save money but may end up taking more time than professional services. so it’s a give and take.

Old man Terry slipping lactation pills in beloved's drinks and food and relishing in the way her body changes and her breasts become heavier, fuller, sore, bigger. I think he would do it as a means to control beloved and to obviously drink from it daily, believing it has benefits or something. When she lactates for the first time and is so confused, he feigns concern and gives her pills that he makes her believe it's for her health but it's to keep her producing milk. His good little calf.

---

Of course it has benefits; mother's milk is the fountain of youth. Didn't you hear?

If Cleopatra could bathe in it, Terry Silver can drink it.

If it's good for a newborn, it's even better for an aging, power hungry Billionaire hellbent on quite literally latching unto and sucking dry whatever controlled and highly vetted source of health, longevity and strength he can like a vampire, and what a more fitting place for it to stem from than his very own beloved? Milk. It does a body good. A famous commercial from the 80's and 90's might come to Terry's mind as the idea occurs to him and of course the maintenance of a physique like his well into his sixth decade being alive doesn't come cheap (cheap, and not in the material sense, because Terry's more than willing to dish out cash) in fact, utilizing basic logic, it would be more and more complicated with each passing year; constant training, dedication, therapy, steam baths, devotion to the sport, very specific dietary choices. Yesterday, it was vegan screws and salads, but he so happens to find beloved's milk infinitely more appetizing, inviting and decadent to the degree he can and would induce their lactation through specific pills. Crushed in meals, crushed in beverages, crushed in a fine wine as they toast together over an intimate, romantic fine dinner for two. How very unassuming --- but he's here with an agenda. Terry Silver not only seeks rejuvenation because youth is the only thing money cant buy according to his own words, but he wants to consume in the general sense of the word. Consume beloved until they flow through his bloodstream, his organism, infused with his very bones; the things he breaks stone slabs with with such ease. The things he fights with. When he's in the midst of combat, it's like beloved's right there, alive and infused inside of his knuckles. You are what you eat, after all.

And of course, being Californian upper crust, he'd hear and see things.

He'd hear and see things for decades --- no doubt having participated too.

Celebrities eating their baby's placenta, Gwyneth Paltrow's beauty regimen that includes bee stings, Sandra Bullock's Hemorrhoid Eye Cream, Cate Blanchett's Foreskin Facials and Demi Moore's Leech Therapy. Hollywood's right next door. It would make Terry Silver's propensity for the strange and unusual almost seem commonplace; him drinking beloved's breast milk? Just another Wednesday in The Valley.

But, he cares. Of course he cares with every fiber of his being and his big, black heart. He tracks every change, every reaction, every sore and every bit of swelling surrounding beloved's body, perfectionist, control freak that he is. Their every complaint. Every bit of fluctuating transformation. Every bit of pain. Hell, he'd even bring in (a bribed off) doctor or ten to regularly check on beloved and quell any fears they might have by assuring them this is totally normal. It happens when someone's young and fertile; it is simply their concern he isn't truly surprised by because everything is going according to his plan and if he feigns anything, it's mostly innocence. But, Terry's far from innocent. This is him desiring to be one with beloved in every sense, consuming them, dominating them, wishing to take whatever he can from their youth and in equal measure, no doubt in mind it's a fetish too because the exchange simply turns him on. He is a dirty old man and he deliberately plays into it and just how very dirty and debauched he can be and that all by itself serves as a gleeful kink precisely because it's total filth. Total filth that totally amuses him. Perhaps even more so that he can expertly get beloved to actually allow him to drink from their breasts of their own volition to alleviate their pressure and pain they're feeling and have them thank him no less once it actually helps, perhaps utilizing a few well-learned massage moves of his as a gateway to everything that comes later. Oh, Terry the kindhearted saint, truly! What's best, beloved consented to everything of their own free will. Well, with some conditioning, white lies (in Terry's opinion) and slightly omitted details involved in the process, of course.

But, the ends justify the means.

Sooner or later, he'll sell the story to them in its entirety and have them agree to it regardless.

His good, perfect little calf indeed.

Not entirely out of the question he wont bottle samples and save them up behind a locked glass veneer in a specially refrigerated portion of his private wine cellar only he can drink from.

Now all we need is a queer club scene a la lone Star.

Buck would absolutely flourish, henren would be flirting, Eddie would be sitting at the bar doing a beer watching Buck like a hawk and sometimes smiling, Tommy would be in the void floating (sorry babe I'm a Buddie 4 lifer), and for a lil pizzazz Maddie and Chimney also go.

(it evolved into a tiny fic 🥺if you wanna read you can🥺)

ao3 link :

Ravi is probably there somewhere with someone in the VIP section looking down at them both happy but also a bit worried to see them.

(he's been working with them for a while now he knows the rumors of that many collective jinx powers they hold)

He sends them drinks periodically and they all wonder if someone is about to get a sugar daddy and then realize they're all couples so who's the couple who's getting a third?

Hen has her hands permanently glued to her wife's side and her head in her neck. She's murmuring sweet nothings and Karen giggles it away as she rubs any part of her that's closest to her and sips her drink.

Chimney and Maddie chat as they become a two-headed, four-limbed creation that smells of tequila, love, and laughter.

Maddie is constantly getting compliments on her shiny outfit and nails and ends up beside Buck periodically through the night, both of them like radiant sunlight to others.

Chimney also magically appears next to her almost instantaneously but vanishes and returns with drinks for his friends eventually chatting up the biggest guys he can on their gym regimen and suggesting they buy a calendar to support the new Asian Sex Symbol.

Of course, they sell a few copies.

Buck is the crown Jewel of the drag queens who are all shapes, sizes, and identities getting off of a show to have a nice night out.

He's marvelous and praises their outfits before quickly getting sucked into impromptu makeup and drag lessons, cards for shows, drunken histories, sexuality stories, and good ole fun lip-syncing.

And of course, since he's a bright star who everyone loves, many people begin their hunt.

A quick wink, a lingering smile, a hand on his lower back that lingers as long as a guy slides past him.

Okay, that's it.

Eddie orders another two beers, checking his phone for the babysitter's update before pocketing it.

He slides up behind Buck sliding a beer in his hand and resting his head on his shoulder his hand coming up to his waist.

The girls immediately gush about the two saying there are Two Hot Firefighters ready to put out their fire and Eddie bursts out in laughter.

They begin to fawn over him next complimenting his jawline and face suggesting he go into modelling or movies.

One of them says it's a waste but they'd be all fired up if they see him covered in soot. Another asks if he's on the same calendar as the sexy Asian guy.

Buck pouts telling them no and he's the focus again.

The drag queens then launch into a spiel about fire safety and if they could do a lecture at a show or help them.

Buck ends up video calling Bobby at the request and he and Athena are laying in bed amused as they watch him stumble through his words before a crowd of colorful queens squeeze into the frame.

He assumes them he'll think about it and the comment on Athena's beauty before the call is cut.

Bobby turns to Athena after the call and she laughs. "Your boy is always getting into trouble." He kisses her forehead softly. "We should go next time." "Let's."

Later that night as Christopher's finally dozing off, his phone slipping out of his hand he jolts at the sound of the front door bursting open.

Harry and Denny freeze on the phone, their faces both lit up by their computer screen, "What was that?"

Chris reaches for his glasses and slips them on staying quiet.

He listens again and relaxes as he hears giggles and shushes.

He rolls his eyes and pulls his covers over his head. "It's my dads."

The shuffling gets louder and he groans softly as his door is knocked on before it's pushed open.

Eddie grins down at his son's lying form and stumbles over as gracefully as he can. Buck is in the kitchen filling two (plastic) cups with water and shakily walking to his room.

Eddie walks to the left of his bed and kneels down resting his head on his arm.

He pats his head suddenly emotional, "I love you so much you know that?"

Chris frowns at his distressed tone but also notices the softness in his touch.

They watch him and Buck tiptoe in to hand Eddie a cup and rest his on a nightstand.

"We should probably let him sleep, okay babe?"

Eddie drinks from his cup smiling and pats Chris' head one last time. "Okay. Night son."

As they're leaving Buck sticks his head back in, "By the way your phone light is still asking through the blanket. Go to bed, Chris."

Harry and Denny burst out laughing and Chris promptly hangs up. He closes his eyes with a smile on his face as his dads fall into bed sloppily in the next room, leaving their problems for themselves tomorrow.

Knife Play (Scaramouche x Reader)

Flesh is fascinating to a doll.

NSFW

[Warnings: blood, restraint, gore, noncon, reference to medical equipment, dead dove: do not eat, scaramouche is his own warning, sort of ended up being more blood play than knife play woops]

Pale fingers grip the cracked brick wall Scaramouche steadies himself against, leaning forward as far as he dares to catch even a glimpse of your flesh splitting.

"This one has grown quite deep..." Your response is immediate- a short, sharp cry ringing out above his colleague's musings as your skin is cut. It sends a shudder through Scaramouche, an electric tingling over the surface of his skin as if it's a misfire of the delusion at his hip. His lips are glistening with saliva as he worries them with an eager tongue.

Slow down, you fool, even his internal dialogue sounds desperate. He'd throttle the other Harbinger if he could. Time and time again he's watched as the Doctor hurriedly flicks your skin apart with the edge of his blade as if he's merely tearing an envelope. Of course a cretin like him wouldn't be able to conceptualize of the pure, organic beauty writhing beneath his instruments. Even the Doctor's clones had flesh, sinew, blood- they would never be able to appreciate the human body in the way that Scaramouche could.

Take a knife to the sixth Harbinger and all you will receive is disappointment. It would hurt- he'd found as much long ago- but the layer's of his outer casing would unceremoniously re-bind and life would go on.

Humans, however, are a flash of color when they're split apart. Layers of viscera too intricate to comprehend for most. It's mesmerizing. Were it up to Scaramouche, he would savor the look in your eyes as his scalpel penetrated your flesh. He'd feel the racing of your heartbeat against his own chest devoid of such an organ. Your blood on his blade, his hands, his cock-

"Please...Archons..." You beg so softly, defeated, and all Scaramouche hears is is please. Yes, beg, he thinks, thrown into the illusion. As long as his eyes stay trained on the carving tool, overhead light bouncing from its surface as it's turned again and again, it's no effort at all to imagine that your small cries of pain are actually whimpers of need. He can visualize so vividly his own body baring down on you now, he deserves it to be reality.

"It's too much," Your voice cracks and you strain. Scaramouche doesn't even hear the Harbinger's voice as he assures you it's almost over, his own thoughts leaping through the scene in his minds eye. Bleed for me. Scaramouche palms his stiffening member, bracing against the wall as a familiar twinge grows in his gut. The operating table is stained red, you're moaning so sweetly in his ear as he nicks your skin again and again and again.

"I can't, I can't-" Suddenly, the Doctor stops and hums in approval. Scaramouche's nails nearly crack as they dig into the brick beneath them. He can't already be finished... There's a brief conversation between the Doctor and one of his segments as bits of your removed Eleazar are tossed unceremoniously into a dish and whisked away. Rage flares in the sixth Harbinger's gut. He had waited so patiently for your Eleazar to return, bidden his time night after night for the Doctor to wheel you in for removal. It hadn't even lasted five minutes.

"As I mentioned, the nodule had burrowed itself quite deep this time. Its removal was relatively straight-forward, but we'll have to try a new approach with your treatment regimen."

"But-" Before you can say another word the Doctor turns on his heel and begins to depart. From his position hidden in the back of the room, Scaramouche fails to see the flash of his colleague's pointed teeth.

"Rest a while. I'll be back with a mixture that should at least prevent that nodule from returning in say...oh, an hour."

Heavy silence falls on the operating room as its thick, metal door swings shut. Scaramouche curses under his breath, slamming a fist against the wall at his side. Months of anticipation, for this?

As he chews his inner cheek, simmering in self-pity, Scaramouche glances up to see you laying helpless in the center of the room, illuminated by a bright spotlight trained on your barely clothed form. He takes a cautious step forward, realizing that you can't see a thing in the surrounding darkness.

Then, he sees it. In all its glistening glory, a scalpel stained red lays on a metal table at your bedside, open for the taking. He swallows hard, inching closer and closer, throat suddenly bone dry.

An hour.

His hand clamps over your mouth before you can even register he's there, muffling a surprised yelp. Like a man possessed, he snatches the scalpel from its resting place and holds it up to the light above. Your blood dribbles down the blade's shaft before dripping onto the floor below. Scaramouche swallows again.

The room is nearly spinning as elation takes its hold. Without a second thought the Harbinger hikes himself onto the operating table and seats himself between your legs, running his eyes down the length of your body before returning to your face. He grins wildly as your chest heaves, body writhing to try and get away, fruitlessly jerking at the restraints on your wrists and ankles. Suddenly, he recalls that he's never heard a single sound from this room and removes his hand from your lips. Your sobs of fear are like music.

With his other hand now free, he hikes up the tattered gown that adorns you even higher than it had been and groans aloud as the sight of the Doctor's previous work reveals itself. On your inner thigh sits a dark, weeping mark crudely made by the scalpel Scaramouche now wields. He reaches out to touch it with his finger tips and you gasp in pain, bucking up unknowingly into his clothed length.

Warm. It's all he can think, over and over. All of this time he never thought that blood would feel like anything else but water. He rubs the viscous fluid between the pads of his index finger and thumb, mesmerized at the texture. How could a fool like the Doctor not see the beauty in his work?

"Wh-what do you want?" Your voice is so small, trembling. Tears wet your cheeks just like in his fantasies. Scaramouche is beaming, eyes wild, caging you in with his body. You gasp in pain as his thigh brushes against yours, cloth dragging against your open wound.

"I have to know what it feels like," He mumbles, dragging his open palm along the goose-pimpled expanse of your unmarred abdomen. With his other hand, he traces the inside of your other thigh with the tip of his scalpel. You shake your head violently, not entirely sure what he means.

"Shhh..." Hot air envelopes your ear as the stranger's lips hover just above its shell, "You should be grateful...to be used by me," A strangled sound escapes you as Scaramouche pushes forward, blade slipping into your flesh and setting your nerves ablaze. The way it feels as it punctures through jolts the Harbinger's cock alive and he keens. It was better than anything he had ever imagined. Humans are so fragile, so much more fragile than he, and just the thought of it fills him with adrenaline.

"Stop, stop!" You cry. Your heart is racing so fast that Scaramouche wonders if it might just stop. He looks down to see a rivulet of crimson trail down your bare skin from the deep cut he's made and he nearly laughs with delight.

Again, he presses his blade to new places on your flesh and again he watches with frenzied awe as boundless color springs forth. Some cuts are shallow, some deeper than he means to make them. He can't help but shamelessly rut against the valley between your thighs as he slices you again and again and again.

When there's no more room for openings, he tosses the scalpel to the side and presses his hands to all of the dribbling cuts on your body. You aren't coherent anymore as he smears crimson up and down your thighs and abdomen, as he rambles about the raw beauty of human flesh and how eternally grateful you should be to be able to please him like this.

"I want to see-" He mutters against your neck, freeing his cock from the confines of his under garments and dragging it along your marred skin, "-your insides..." The sixth Harbinger moans, imagining slicing you open right here and now to poke and prod at whatever lies beneath, "It would be a...worthy sacrifice..."

The thought of how warm and wet the cavernous opening between your ribs would be is enough to send Scaramouche toppling, and he stills against you. Warmth spreads over your thigh as he finally releases, and he reels back to watch in awe as spurts of clouded semen meld into pink pools on your skin.

Before he can even begin to come down, bright light floods the operating room as its door swings open. The Doctor waltzes in, arms behind his back. Though he doesn't feign surprise, he does feign concern as he shakes his head at Scaramouche, who sits coated in your blood and still quivering between your legs.

"Well, well. It looks like our dear sixth just couldn't help himself," He looks to one of his younger segments, who flashes him a devious grin in response, "If you wanted to be my assistant, little puppet, you should have just asked."

“As HUMSS, how can you uphold dance as physical fitness upon influencing the future?”

As a Humanities and Social Science (humss) student, I believe that promoting dance as a form of physical fitness can have a significant impact on the future. By actively engaging in dance classes and highlighting its benefits, we can inspire others to embrace dance as a regular exercise routine, thus enhancing overall physical well-being. Organizing dance events and workshops in our community can raise awareness about the importance of physical activity and encourage more individuals to incorporate dance into their fitness regimen. Moreover, conducting research on the positive effects of dance on physical health and sharing these findings with educational institutions and health organizations can lead to the integration of dance programs in school curriculums and healthcare initiatives, fostering a healthier future generation. By advocating for dance as a means of promoting physical fitness, Humanities and Social Science (humss) students have the opportunity to shape a healthier and more active future through the beauty of dance.

Quote

Simplicity is difficult, after all, no less than complexity. Both require taste and skill. Neither is less artificial or more natural than the other. Both are necessary for good writing. And when either becomes a forced regimen, exclusive of the other, the results can be only hideous. Good writing is produced not by forsaking the beautiful for the sublime or the exorbitant for the restrained, but by finding new ways of orchestrating the interplay between them. Now, all the authorities of the age seem to concur, the literary performer should treat the organ’s console as a collection of decadent temptations to be resisted; he or she should confine the performance to a single manual, played with two fingers, with no stops pulled and the pedals never so much as brushed by an errant shoe-tip.

@ultfan asked: ACCOMPLICE : for one muse to assist the other at the scene of a crime ritualistic courtly torture. (most likely in an ult despair context but lbr komaeda isn’t against this regardless)

A Comprehensive List of Scenarios

She didn't like having her beauty regimen interrupted.

It was, as Sonia was reminded time and time again, her greatest asset. Junko saw to that every time she graced the Queen of Novoselic with her presence: a purr into Sonia's ear before the queen took to the cameras, while she draped herself over the queen's lap as she sat upon the throne. when Sonia buried her face between Junko's perfect thighs as she brought her waves upon waves of pleasure and pain until Junko could be, at least temporarily, satiated in her lust for despair.

Beauty was the key. Beauty commanded, enslaved, teased, tortured, and conquered. Junko had run a manicured thumb over Sonia's mouth the last time, reveling in the blood and cum that lingered there, and had told her she was best, she was perfect, just like that.

And thus, in her absence, Sonia was meticulous. It had become a ritual, there in the once-lavish bathroom that had been her father's: from the silk robe she wore, to the two servants who escorted her, to the dripping tears that began to fill the white porcelain tub. At its edge, the two women clad in little more than undergarments carefully peeled the silk away from their Queen's shoulders, each taking a hand to help her climb into the tub.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please!" The choked, strangled voice begged from above. Sobs and sniffles that, until that point, Sonia had ignored. Rather pathetic, really: the girl, no older than twenty if she had to estimate, couldn't even handle being stripped naked, branded on the buttock with the royal seal, and strung up with rope several meters above the bath.

She was beautiful, but she wouldn't last long. A pity: Sonia liked it best when it lasted.

"I...I am a hard worker! I will do anything, please just spare my brothers and sisters!" She babbled, her brown eyes widening as her lips parted at the sight of Sonia, pale and soft, flawless and naked in the porcelain tub below her. As if she had trouble deciding whether to plead for the lives of her siblings or plead for access to her queen's cunt instead.

Sonia's delicate mouth turned upwards into a smirk, watching her eyes glaze over. As their gazes met, the young woman dangling above her gasped, her cheeks reddened, and Sonia knew in that moment that saving her family was now the secondary goal of joining Queen Sonia's court.

"You are...most powerful, m-most beautiful.." She stammered, her gaze greedily dropping to Sonia's chest, her belly, the apex of her thighs. "P-please, I promise I can make myself useful to you-"

"You are noisy."

"H-huh?" A pitiful cry of confusion. The first time, since Sonia had sunk into the tub, that she'd been intrigued by her: not her long brown hair, or her round eyes, or the smattering of freckles just below her navel, or the pink nipples that had hardened at the sight of her queen, bare and resplendent beneath her.

"You are much too noisy," Sonia repeated, a soft purr to her voice as she reached over the side of the tub. "And not even the right kind of noisy. We will fix that."

"What do you mean, I-" The young woman tried to protest, right before a scream ripped from her throat. Her queen had retrieved the stick that rested by the edge of the tub. Or rather, what the woman thought was a stick. Instead, Sonia had grabbed the ceremonial spear, raised it upward, and cut her open from navel to nose.

"That's better," Sonia declared in a breathy sigh, her body relaxing against the tub. If she was going to be noisy, she'd at least do so in a way that pleased her. Organs succumbing to gravity and dangling below the open cavity she'd cut, blood spilling down, down, down to splatter over Sonia's elegant face, her full lips, her delicate shoulders, and down even further, over the swells of her breasts, her taut stomach, the curves of her full hips and thighs. "Mmm...that's much better."

Noisy as she screamed and begged and bled, yet lovely and sweet and caring, and thus perfect for her bath. Junko would be proud, Sonia thought as she rubbed the girl's blood deep into her skin, starting with her face, down her chest and torso before finally settling her fingers between her legs. A modern Lady Bathory she was, she thought as she sliced at the young woman further, opening up her belly before pushing her over with the edge of the spear and cutting through the brand on her ass, a better version. The men she tortured lusted for her until she disposed of them but the women, beautiful and young and hopeful and innocent, Sonia savored them. Drained them of every single one of those qualities until the blood hardened against her skin, her moans of self-pleasure ceased, and the servants entered again to bathe their Queen in milk, rose-scented soap, and water, in that order.

The corpse would be moved away discreetly, a process that occurred while Sonia was dressing and another servant entered her bedroom, bowing deeply before her before announcing a friend had arrived. "A friend? I do not have those, you silly man." She'd insisted, before ordering that the guest be shown to the dungeons corridor alongside a few other, special requests. A friend coming to visit, hmm? Well, they'd better adhere to the rules of Court.

Clad in a clean gown, hair and makeup carefully applied, Sonia strode into the corridor with her retinue flanked behind her. "Well, as if I do not already have enough 'Servants,'" She teased, the corners of her mouth turning upward at the sight of the Servant. Or Nagito, as he'd once been. They were twisted now, all twisted now, around Junko's fingers and honey-sweet promises of Despair. "What brings you to my Castle? Well, we shall find out shortly. After your welcome ceremony. Please, come."

At her nod, two guards opened the door to one of the dungeon's many rooms. Inside, a skinny boy with mouse-brown hair, tattered clothes, and chained wrists waited. He whimpered at the sight of Sonia but considerably brightened upon seeing her companion. With a sweet smile, Sonia pressed two brightly-colored wrapped treats into his hands. "Go on," She urged Nagito with a silkiness, a playfulness, to her voice. "He's been told that the man with the fluffy hair has candy for him. He hasn't eaten in almost a week, you see." The boy, caked in dirt and smelling of piss and shit, crawled to Nagito eagerly on all fours, chained hands extended while babbling pleas for the sweets. "It's only proper when you visit someone's home to bring a gift, you know." She reminded him, arms folded over her chest as she waited, watched, eyes fixed on Nagito's hands and the way the little boy used the last of his strength to claw for them, begging for the food within.

Will Sunscreen Cause Acne?

Welcome to Aussenskin, where safe skincare is our utmost priority. We take immense pride in offering you our organic Australian-made Vegan SPF50 sunscreen with added hyaluronic acid—a product designed to provide superior sun protection without compromising your skin's health. Today, we'll tackle a common concern: whether sunscreen can cause acne. Join us as we debunk the myth and shed light on how the right sunscreen can actually benefit acne-prone skin.

The Myth Surrounding Sunscreen and Acne

It's not uncommon to come across claims that sunscreen can cause or worsen acne, leaving many individuals hesitant to use it regularly. However, it's crucial to separate fact from fiction and understand how sunscreen works in relation to acne-prone skin.

Understanding the Importance of Sunscreen

Before delving into the connection between sunscreen and acne, let's emphasize the significance of using sunscreen. Sunscreen is an essential component of any skincare routine, regardless of skin type or concerns. It shields your skin from the sun's harmful UV rays, preventing sunburn, premature aging, and reducing the risk of skin cancer. Safe skincare practices involve incorporating sunscreen into your daily regimen, ensuring your skin stays protected and healthy.

Sunscreen and Acne-Prone Skin

Some individuals with acne-prone skin may be wary of using sunscreen due to concerns that it could clog pores or exacerbate breakouts. The reality is that not all sunscreens are created equal, and some formulations may be more likely to cause issues for acne-prone individuals. However, it's essential to find the right sunscreen that suits your skin's needs.

Non-Comedogenic Formulas

The key to avoiding acne breakouts while using sunscreen lies in choosing non-comedogenic formulas. Non-comedogenic sunscreens are specifically designed not to clog pores, making them ideal for acne-prone skin. Our Aussenskin sunscreen is formulated with non-comedogenic ingredients, ensuring it won't block pores or contribute to acne breakouts.

Look for Oil-Free and Lightweight Formulations

Acne-prone skin tends to be more sensitive to heavy or greasy products. To prevent potential breakouts, opt for oil-free and lightweight sunscreen formulations. These types of sunscreens are less likely to feel heavy on the skin and won't add excess oil that could contribute to acne.

Patch Test New Sunscreens

If you have concerns about trying a new sunscreen, perform a patch test before applying it all over your face. Apply a small amount of sunscreen to a small area on your forearm or jawline and wait 24 to 48 hours. If no negative reactions occur, you can confidently use the sunscreen on your face.

Sunscreen itself does not cause acne. The key to safe skincare for acne-prone individuals lies in choosing the right sunscreen that is non-comedogenic, oil-free, and lightweight. Our organic Australian-made Vegan SPF50 sunscreen with added hyaluronic acid is a perfect choice, as it is designed to provide superior sun protection without clogging pores or contributing to acne breakouts. Embrace the importance of sunscreen in your daily skincare routine, and you can enjoy clear, healthy, and protected skin under the care of Aussenskin. Here's to a lifetime of safe skincare and confident beauty!

Beauty And Health Bd

Beauty and health are integral aspects of a person’s overall well-being. In a country like Bangladesh, where culture and tradition intertwine with modern trends, the pursuit of beauty and health takes on multifaceted dimensions. The vibrant heritage and diverse landscapes of Bangladesh influence the traditional practices and contemporary approaches to beauty and wellness. This article aims to explore the interplay between beauty and health in Bangladesh, encompassing cultural influences, modern trends, and the fusion of traditional remedies with global innovations.

Cultural Influence on Beauty and Health in Bangladesh:

Bangladesh's cultural richness is reflected in various traditional beauty and health practices that have been passed down through generations. Ayurveda and Unani, ancient holistic healing systems, hold significant importance in Bangladesh's approach to well-being. These systems emphasize a balance between mind, body, and spirit, employing natural remedies, herbs, and dietary practices.

The tradition of using natural ingredients for skincare and haircare is deeply ingrained in Bangladeshi culture. Ingredients like turmeric, sandalwood, amla, and neem have been staples in beauty regimens for centuries. These natural elements are often incorporated into face packs, hair oils, and body scrubs, promoting not just external beauty but also overall health benefits.

The Cultural Significance of Henna in Bangladesh:

Henna, or "mehendi" in Bengali, holds immense cultural significance in Bangladesh. Beyond its ornamental use in intricate designs during celebrations and ceremonies, henna offers medicinal properties. It's believed to have cooling effects and is often applied to the palms and feet to relieve stress and cool the body, especially during the hot and humid Bangladeshi climate.

Modern Trends in the Beauty and Health Industry:

In recent years, Bangladesh has seen a surge in the beauty and health industry, witnessing a blend of traditional practices with modern innovations. The market is flooded with a wide array of international skincare, haircare, and wellness products. Bangladeshi consumers are becoming more conscious of the ingredients in their beauty products, leading to an increased demand for natural and organic items.

Moreover, the integration of technology in the beauty industry has been notable. Beauty clinics and wellness centers across major cities in Bangladesh offer advanced treatments such as laser therapies, non-invasive cosmetic procedures, and high-tech skincare solutions. These technological advancements are reshaping the beauty and health landscape, catering to the evolving needs of the population.

Challenges and Opportunities in Bangladesh's Beauty and Health Sector:

Despite the progress, challenges persist in the beauty and health sector of Bangladesh. Accessibility and affordability remain significant hurdles, particularly for the rural population. Limited access to quality healthcare and beauty services in remote areas underscores the need for improved infrastructure and awareness programs.

Nonetheless, these challenges also present opportunities for growth. The rise of social media influencers and online beauty platforms has facilitated the dissemination of information and products. It has also created opportunities for local entrepreneurs to showcase and market their traditional, homemade beauty remedies to a wider audience, both domestically and internationally.

The Role of Holistic Health in Bangladesh:

The concept of holistic health is gaining traction in Bangladesh. Yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices are becoming increasingly popular among urban dwellers seeking a more balanced and harmonious lifestyle. These practices not only promote physical well-being but also focus on mental and emotional health.

The Future of Beauty and Health in Bangladesh:

As Bangladesh strides into the future, the convergence of tradition and modernity will continue to shape the beauty and health landscape. A greater emphasis on sustainability, ethical practices, and inclusive approaches to beauty and health is expected. The integration of traditional wisdom with scientific advancements will likely pave the way for a more comprehensive and accessible well-being experience for the people of Bangladesh.

Conclusion:

Beauty and health in Bangladesh are not just about external appearances but also about inner well-being. The country's rich cultural heritage and modern advancements create a unique tapestry where tradition meets innovation. The journey towards a holistic approach to beauty and health involves not only looking good but also feeling good—a harmonious balance that aligns with the ethos of a thriving society. Bangladesh's pursuit of beauty and health encapsulates a journey of self-care, cultural preservation, and adaptation to changing times.

Fic Update: The Roles We Play (Chapter 2: The Doppler Tailor)

Summary:

Sarah lays Rose Red to rest by returning the dress. She meets the tailor instead!

Imryl pushed a dress stand on wheels towards the male elf. The rose dress was mounted on it.

“Isn’t this one of your creations, Elihal?”

“Part of my spring collection to be exact!”

The male elf called Elihal replied, then glanced at Sarah “Oh, so you are the customer! I am Elihal, tailor and owner of The Stylish Dopper. Shame I was not there to greet you in person. I had an engagement I couldn’t miss.” Elihal wore a doublet of dark gray and white fabric with deep green trim. He made a sweeping gesture with his right hand as he bends for a graceful bow.

Sarah found Elihal fascinating. Though he has the sharp features distinct to his race, his voice is deep and ethereal, smooth as silk and a touch hypnotic. If Ida was a male, he’d be Elihal.

“I am Sarah. Pleasure to finally meet you, master tailor-“ Elihal scoffed, interrupted her with a swift hand-flip.

“Please, Elihal will do! And my thanks for purchasing one of my pieces.” He regarded the dress with a look of pride.

Sarah grimaced. “Uh, yes… about that-“

“Oh? Does it need repairs?” He was giving the dress a quick look over, ruffled the petals and couldn’t find any visible damage. “Fear not, I can patch any clothing on the spot, but I left my tools in the shop. Let us finish our beauty regimen first and we will discuss the dress on our way to my humble establishment.”

After coins were exchanged for the service, Elihal and Sarah walked together towards The Stylish Doopler. Elihal carried the dress, safely folded back into the box. The weight didn’t seem to bother him. He held the door open for her while his other arm supported the box.

Sarah was glad he has not flipped the signage to “Open” yet.

It took a few minutes to drape the dress onto one of the headless mannequins. They both stared at it admiringly. Elihal glanced at Sarah and saw her look of sorrow. He misinterpreted the cause.

“Do not worry, lady Sarah. There is no hole or rip I cannot fix and, before you know it, it looks like it was never damaged at all!”

Sarah shook her head. “It’s not that. The dress is in pristine condition. I came here in hopes of returning it.”

Those manicured hands went up to Elihal’s chest, accompanying the sharp inhale and wider eyes.

“Re-return?” He choked. Sarah guessed that word never occurred to him in his entire career as tailor.

"Elevate Your Fitness Journey: Embracing the Power of Physical Exercise"

In a world that's constantly buzzing with innovation and technology, the significance of physical exercise remains timeless. While our lives might have become more sedentary, the benefits of incorporating regular physical activity into our routines are undeniable. From boosting our mood to enhancing our physical well-being, engaging in exercise is a holistic approach to leading a fulfilling life. This blog post delves into the various aspects of physical exercise and how it can empower us to reach new heights of health and vitality.

The Science Behind Exercise:

Physical exercise isn't just about lifting weights or running on a treadmill; it's a comprehensive science that involves understanding how our bodies respond to movement. When we exercise, our bodies release endorphins, often referred to as "feel-good" hormones. These endorphins not only help alleviate stress and anxiety but also contribute to an improved sense of overall well-being. Additionally, exercise increases blood flow, delivering essential nutrients and oxygen to our muscles and organs, thereby optimizing their performance.

A Strong Body and Mind Connection:

Beyond the physical benefits, regular exercise establishes a strong connection between our body and mind. Engaging in physical activities has been proven to enhance cognitive functions, boost memory, and promote mental clarity. Whether it's yoga, weightlifting, or a brisk walk in nature, these activities stimulate the brain and encourage the growth of new neurons, fostering an environment for learning and mental sharpness.

Tailoring Your Exercise Regimen:

The beauty of physical exercise lies in its diversity. There's an exercise for everyone, regardless of age, fitness level, or personal preferences. Finding an activity that resonates with you is crucial for long-term adherence. Whether it's dancing, swimming, cycling, or practicing martial arts, the key is to engage in something you genuinely enjoy. This not only makes the process more enjoyable but also increases the likelihood of sticking to your routine.

Maximizing Benefits with a Balanced Approach:

While the enthusiasm for starting a new exercise routine can be high, it's essential to approach it with balance and moderation. Overexertion or pushing too hard too soon can lead to burnout or even injuries. Gradually increasing the intensity and duration of your workouts allows your body to adapt and become stronger over time. Additionally, coupling exercise with a well-balanced diet ensures that your body receives the necessary fuel to support your active lifestyle.

Embracing Consistency and Patience:

Results from physical exercise aren't typically immediate, and that's perfectly okay. Consistency and patience are key factors in reaping the long-term benefits of your efforts. Setting achievable goals and celebrating even the smallest victories can keep you motivated on your journey. Remember, it's about progress, not perfection.

Conclusion:

Incorporating physical exercise into your life isn't just about fitting into a certain clothing size or achieving a particular aesthetic. It's a holistic approach to wellness that enriches both your body and mind. By understanding the science behind exercise, embracing a balanced approach, and cultivating consistency, you're empowering yourself to lead a life filled with vitality and well-being. So, take that first step, embark on your fitness journey, and watch as your body and mind flourish in ways you never imagined possible. Your future self will thank you for it.
