How to Properly Care for Your New Glasses

Introduction

Embarking on the journey of caring for your new glasses is crucial to ensure their longevity and maintain optimal vision. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the nuances of caring for your eyewear, providing insights and tips that go beyond the ordinary.

The Importance of Proper Care

Your glasses are more than just a visual aid; they're an investment in your daily comfort and clarity. Proper care not only ensures their durability but also guarantees a clear vision, free from smudges and scratches.

Choosing the Right Cleaning Materials

To maintain the pristine condition of your glasses, start by choosing the right cleaning materials. Microfiber cloths and lens cleaning solutions specifically designed for eyewear are your best allies in the battle against dirt and grime.

Cleaning Your Glasses Effectively

Gently wipe your glasses in a circular motion, paying extra attention to the nose pads and hinges. Avoid using excessive force, as it may damage the lenses or frame. Regular, gentle cleaning is the key to crystal-clear vision.

Storing Your Glasses Safely

When not in use, always store your glasses in a protective case. This shields them from potential scratches and prevents accidents that could lead to misalignment or breakage.

Handling Your Glasses with Care

Handle your glasses with clean, dry hands. Avoid placing them face down, as this exposes the lenses to potential scratches. Additionally, refrain from using your shirttail to clean them—opt for the proper materials.

Avoiding Common Mistakes

One common mistake is using regular household cleaners, which may contain harsh chemicals detrimental to lens coatings. Stick to recommended cleaning solutions to protect both your lenses and your eyes.

When and How to Adjust Your Glasses

Regularly check for any discomfort or slippage. If needed, make minor adjustments by gently bending the temples. For major adjustments, consult your optician to avoid causing damage.

Dealing with Scratches

Despite precautions, scratches can occur. If minor, try toothpaste or baking soda as a gentle abrasive. For deeper scratches, seek professional advice.

Protecting Your Glasses from the Elements

Rain, heat, and dust can pose challenges. Use lens coatings for added protection and always shield your glasses during adverse weather conditions.

Knowing When to Replace Your Glasses

If you notice a decline in vision despite proper care, it might be time for a new prescription. Regular eye check-ups ensure your glasses always complement your visual needs.

How to Properly Care for Your New Glasses: A Step-by-Step Guide

Start with the Right Cleaning Materials Begin by gathering a microfiber cloth and specialized lens cleaning solution.

Inspect Your Glasses Examine your glasses for any loose screws, misalignments, or scratches.

Gentle Cleaning Motion Using the microfiber cloth, clean the lenses in a circular motion, paying attention to edges and corners.

Nose Pads and Hinges Ensure thorough cleaning around nose pads and hinges, where dirt tends to accumulate.

Storing in a Protective Case When not in use, place your glasses in a sturdy case to prevent damage.

Handle with Care Always handle your glasses with clean, dry hands, avoiding unnecessary pressure on the lenses.

Avoid Face-Down Placement Never place your glasses face down to prevent scratches on the lenses.

Regular Adjustment Checks Periodically check for any discomfort or misalignment, making minor adjustments if necessary.

Dealing with Scratches For minor scratches, try toothpaste or baking soda. Seek professional help for deeper scratches.

Weather Protection Shield your glasses during rain or extreme heat to maintain their quality.

Regular Eye Check-ups Schedule regular eye check-ups to ensure your prescription is up-to-date.

FAQs about Caring for Your Glasses

Can I clean my glasses with regular household cleaners?

It's advisable to stick to specialized lens cleaning solutions, as household cleaners may contain harsh chemicals that can damage lens coatings.

How often should I clean my glasses?

Cleaning your glasses daily with a microfiber cloth and lens solution helps maintain clarity and prevents the buildup of dirt.

Is it okay to use tissues or paper towels to clean my glasses?

Avoid using tissues or paper towels, as they can leave behind fibers that may scratch your lenses. Stick to microfiber cloths for optimal cleaning.

Can I wear my glasses while cooking or near heat sources?

It's best to avoid wearing glasses near intense heat sources, as this can damage coatings and affect the frame. Consider protective eyewear in such situations.

What should I do if my glasses get wet in the rain?

Use a dry, clean cloth to gently wipe off any water droplets. Avoid using clothing, as it may contain abrasive particles.

Can I adjust my glasses at home?

Minor adjustments, like gently bending the temples, can be done at home. However, for major adjustments, consult your optician to prevent damage.

Caring for your new glasses is an essential aspect of maintaining both their longevity and the clarity of your vision. By following these guidelines, you not only ensure the durability of your eyewear but also contribute to a consistently clear and comfortable visual experience.

all i can just think of are fluffy hobie headcanons w reader who has glasses 🗣️🗣️🗣️ like they would be making out and hobie would be complaining about reader's glasses just keeps knocking on his face (definitely did not think of this because i wear glasses)

— okay as a fellow glasses wearer, i loved this idea sooo much (// ^ ^ //) ♥︎

hobie thinks your glasses are adorable. he has these moments when he’s admiring you and noticing the tiniest details. his favorite one is when your glasses slowly slip to the tip of your nose and you huff in annoyance— pushing them back up. hobie thought it was funny, but he came to find himself adjusting them for you.

with delicate fingers, hobie pushes up your glasses by the hinges until they perfectly frame your face— softly brushing a knuckle over your cheek as a way to ease your irritation.

“wha’ me to get you some goggles instead?” hobie quipped under his breath, brushing your hair behind your ears.

you simply rolled your eyes with a cheesed smile, to which hobie would playfully pinch your cheek as you continue to work.

blessed with perfect vision, hobie had no concept on what it’s like to be forced to wear glasses.

“how many fingers am i holdin’ up?” he would extend three fingers in front of your face, dragging his arm in different directions and distances.

when you tell him that’s not how it works, hobie would simply shrug his shoulders with a lazy smirk.

“wrong. the answer ‘s two.” he would obnoxiously bend his ring finger and wave it on your heated face— earning him a smack to the chest.

and yes, making out with your glasses really gets on hobie’s nerves.

a soft sigh would spill from your lips as hobie grazes his teeth along your neck— his mouth coming back to slot themselves back into its place. he leans in for another kiss and immediately comes contact with the foggy lens of your glasses.

“for fuck’s sake.” he hisses in exasperation, snatching them off your face but still being mindful not to touch your lens, he tossed them on the nearest soft surface.

before you could whine about him handling your glasses like a madman, hobie cups your cheeks and briskly pressed his lips against yours— knocking all the wind out of your lungs. you nearly tipped over by his desperate advancement until hobie wraps a firm grasp around your waist, pulling you closer with a satisfied hum.

“y’know nothin’ can keep me away from you.” he would breathe out in between heated pecks.

but sometimes, hobie doesn’t know the extent to his own strength.

“‘s just a dent babe…” hobie would look apologetic when you patch the temple with lousy tape— your pout making him feel guilty.

he nervously grasped the lenses from your hands and placed them on your face. cringing at the way the lenses slowly tilted to the side as a deep frown settled onto your face.

“see your specs still look… fine.”

don’t worry, he got you a new pair afterwards.

u ask for shy!reader here i come holding a request

shy reader who is used to ppl telling them they look better without glasses, only for steve to find out they actually do very much need them, especially to read

so steve finally encourages them to wear them more and make sure to tell them how cute they look with them

hi, angel! thanks for ur request! fellow glasses-wearers rise! (1.4k)

Six months, five days, and twelve hours — that’s how long Steve’s been your boyfriend. Not that he’s counting, of course. It takes him the same amount of time to find out that you wear glasses.

He always knew your vision wasn’t the greatest. You complained about it from time to time — the headaches and the blurriness — but he never thought it was bad because you never made a big deal about it. He figured it was more existential than urgent, the idea that you might need glasses in the future if your eyes ever worsened. 

He didn’t know they were already worse. 

It’s your first movie night together — “the first of many,” Steve lilted when he sat down on the couch beside you, with a bowl of popcorn in his hand and a kiss on your cheek. He liked the idea of that, of having a tradition with you. He liked knowing that a section of his busy week could be carved out just for the both of you.

And it’s not like you’ve never watched a movie together before. It’s just that usually, there are about five teenagers sandwiched between the two of you, not including Robin and Nancy. 

The former always insists on sitting on Steve’s left and only occasionally sharing her popcorn. The latter sits next to you and, halfway through the film, has already managed to convince you to leave with her and do something more fun.

But now, at eight o’clock, tucked tenderly away in your apartment, it’s just the two of you. 

And your terrible, terrible eyesight.

A quarter of the way through Beetlejuice, Steve catches you squinting at the television across the room.

You’re all wrapped up in his arms, lying on your sides on the small couch. Steve keeps you pressed against him to stop you from falling off the edge of it. One of his arms curls around your stomach and the other is balled into a fist to prop up his head.

He looks down at you, already smiling, and with a “Be honest, would you fuck Michael Keaton as Beetlejuice?” on the tip of his tongue. It fades when he notices your eyes are halfway closed.

For a second, he thinks you might be falling asleep. He can tell by your scrunched nose and quirked mouth that it’s something else entirely.

His hand squeezes your hip to get your attention. “Babe? You okay?”

“Huh?” you hum as you turn to him. The furrow between your brows dissipates when your eyes open to their fullest again.

“You’re squinting.”

Your mouth falls softly agape, as though in slight surprise. 

You hadn’t noticed it, really. You hardly ever do, but it’s been happening a lot more recently.

Just a week ago, Nancy pointed out how closely you held her newspaper to your face while trying to read it. After that, Dustin had been trying to show you a new VHS at Family Video but had to come about ten steps closer for you to see what it was.

“Oh. I didn’t realize…”

“Do you have a headache?” Steve asks, bushy brows pinched in concern. “Do you wanna turn the movie off?”

You shake your head against the pillow. “No. It’s fine.”

“Is it your eyes again? Can you see—”

“Yes, Steve,” you interject, laughing gently. “I can see the screen.”

“What’s the time say, then?”

“I can see,” you argue in a non-answer.

“Humor me.”

You huff. Then squint again.

The red numbers below the TV stand are mush. Your eyes try hopelessly to focus on them. With what you lack in eyesight, you make up for with confidence. “Nine… Thirty-six…” you answer with a nonchalant shrug.

Steve sputters out a laugh that fans against your cheek. He shakes his head in pity. “Babe…”

“What?”

“That’s not even close! It’s eight-fifty-five!” he chuckles with a pink smile and sparkling honey eyes. 

You roll your eyes at him in response. He leans down to kiss your cheek when you turn away from him again. 

“You gotta make an appointment to get your eyes checked, babe. You can’t just go through life not being able to see anything—”

“I have glasses,” you mumble.

“What? Since when?”

“I don’t know. Since, like, middle school,” you shrug. “I just don’t wear them.”

Steve, halfway offended, gapes at you in response. “…Why didn’t I know about this?”

“’Cause I don’t like wearing them. They make my eyes look funny. I hate it.”

“Where are they?”

“In my bedroom—” you answer absentmindedly, then whine when he starts to get up. “Steve, don’t! I’m comfortable!” 

“I’ll be right back,” the boy promises.

He shoves the covers down and climbs over your legs to get off the couch. He presses another kiss to your cheeks before he goes, like he can’t stand the idea of not kissing you every chance he gets.

He finds your glasses in a thin leather case in your desk drawer. They’re simple, rounded things — rimmed with silver and pretty in their minimalism. He rushes them back to you with a boyish excitement fluttering like a butterfly in his chest.

No one’s ever been this thrilled to see someone in a pair of glasses.

He beams at you when he hurries back into the living room.

You’ve already sat up against the back of the couch, not nearly as comfortable without Steve holding you. Your knees are brought up to your chest, the knitted blanket through over them and bunched at your lap. You meet his grin with a childlike scowl.

“Here. Put ‘em on,” he says, motioning the glasses to you.

“No,” you whine, flopping your head back against the couch.

“Don’t be so dramatic,” Steve laughs. “They’re just glasses.”

“I don’t like them!”

“Why?” 

“‘Cause they make me look weird!”

“I don’t believe that.”

“Well, ask everyone who’s ever seen me in them,” you retort, halfway pouting. “I got made fun of for, like, six years when I wore them to school. Everyone called me Turtle until I graduated.”

A grin pulls at Steve’s lips. “Turtle?”

You nod shyly, looking at him through your lashes and trying not to smile back. “Yeah. ‘Cause I looked like Toby Turtle from Robin Hood—”

Steve doesn’t mean to laugh. It just sort of comes out. A big, boyish, hearty chuckle sputters from his mouth before he can stop it.

“Don’t laugh!” you scold, giggling alongside him.

“Well, now you have to put them on.”

Steve inches toward you with the glasses in hand. You don’t protest when he slips the sides over your ears and uses the knuckle of his forefinger to push them up the bridge of your nose. 

He steps back to admire you with a grin. Your girlish pout has returned to you, but it doesn’t look nearly as intimidating when you’re blinking up at him with unusually large eyes.

He shakes his head down at you. “You’re the cutest damn thing I’ve ever seen, you know that?”

“Don’t lie,” you grouse. “I look like a bug.”

“Correction: the cutest bug.” 

He laughs when it makes you glower. 

He steps to the side and points to the clock again. “Can you see the time now?”

You look at it, then back to him. “Yeah… ’S Time for you to go home,” you deadpan.

“When’d you get so mean?” Steve lilt, beaming at you as he settles on the couch again. 

The two of you absentmindedly crawl back into your original positions. He lounges behind you and clutches you to his chest again. “You used to be so nice, Toby Turtle—”

“Don’t,” you protest, halfway smiling despite the glare you give him. You look almost owlish behind the thick lenses. "It's not funny."

“I’m just kidding, babe,” he promises. He sprinkles kisses to your face and laughs into each one. “I love them. I swear.”

“I’m glad someone does,” you murmur.

Steve pulls back with a grin, toeing the line between sincerity and mischief. “I’ll show how much I like ‘em later,” he teases quietly, squeezing the outside of your thigh where his hand rests. “I have a feeling I’m gonna have a lot of fun with these tonight.”

Your face heats at his words. Your nose scrunches, feigning disgust as you push him away.

“Perv,” you mumble, crossing your arms over your chest and turning so your back is pressed against him again.

“I thought Toby Turtle was supposed to be nice—”

“Steve!”

CRAZY ART THE CLOWN X CRAZIER KILLER CLOWN READER

I wrote this while at a family event :3

My cousin says hi by the way 

Yea Art is crazy. Remember the first time you meet? You were sitting on your couch hungover and hungry when you ordered food. As you heard the doorbell you dragged your body over to the door your head pounding like someone was hammering your brain over and over again. You opened your door and there stood Art the clown the guy you saw on the news just minutes before. He was wearing the same black and white clown suit with the little black hat but with a bloody Pizza Hut uniform over the clown suit. At this point in your life you didn’t even care. Your dad just died and left you the barn and homes in the middle of nowhere! In fact you were hoping for Art to kill you but you took the pizza and threw a 20 dollar bill in his face with some changes for a tip before closing the door. Art was a bit confused. She wasn’t scared? Well that was new.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Well after that Art was just kinda there. In your back yard/barn eating your sheep alive, in your kitchen throwing around a dead rabbit or something, even going as far as to put cockroaches in your fuck sink! WHAT A DICK! But he would kill off the fox’s and coyotes that tried to kill your hens and chickens that was a plus I guess…

After that you kinda may or may not had followed Art ones and helped him kill some people… well you couldn’t help yourself you were bored of life! And well one day you got a bit too cocky as you got yourself killed and Art was definitely not going to let that slide killing the person that killed you. He did unspeakable things to the body. You sense you can’t even have death (also because your the main character lmao) you came back to life as a clown with no remorse. You had a nice dirty clown suit, wearer your hair down and had sick new clown makeup!!

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Here you were, walking into your house when the phone rang. You picked it up

“Helloooo..?”

You said in a huff. You were already planing on killing who ever was on the other end as all you wanted to do was go over to your barn and kill and eat something. Nothing. You heard nothing. But then something moving. Of course it was Art. He probably needed to get picked up… UGHHHHHHHHAHHHHHH

Even if you didn’t want to you got inside and you were hungry you when back outside and got into the car and drove. It wasn’t hard to find him. Just pull up to the nearest diner. As you pulled up you saw Art standing in the window blood everywhere in the dinar, dead people everywhere. You know the usual!🤷🏽‍♀️ You swing the car open the cold air not phasing you in that moment. You walk over to the door Art was just standing there looking at you with a crazed expression. You had a crazed expression too as you both just looking at each other with “loving looks” through the glass. After a hot minute but you end up opening the door and jumped into Art’s arms wrapping your legs around his waist.

“ARTY!!”

You said basically squealing in joy. For a quiet guy he was loud with love!… or whatever a killer clown fells for one other?

Art squeezed you in his arms to a point of it being painful but it was just love. Honestly if he was hugging any average person like this it would break there spine but you both were demons? Something you both can’t put your finger on.🤷🏽‍♀️ You jumped down basically dragging Art out the diner. As you made your way to the car your black heals clicking against the ground you throw Art into the back seat before laughing in his face as he silently makes jesters with his mouth and shoulders like he is laughing too even if his head did slam into the other car door. You had gotten into the car and started it up and you could hear the police sirens in the background. God you couldn’t stand that noise! It was annoying and loud and it only meant trouble! But Art loves that sound as it means he will get to see his “art” on the news. As you drive you started to nag him about letting someone call the police. And Art? He is silently mocking and laughing at you! You going to let that slide? No you were just going to just show him tonight what happened when he fucks around!

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

HEYY SO THIS IS THE END! Hope y’all enjoyed this as this is my second fanfic I made! I may or may not make a pt 2 idk though🤷🏽‍♀️

A new beauty routine I’ve recently invested in is getting my nails done at a salon.

I haven’t seen a lot of people discuss the esoteric significance of doing your nails more intentionally. Onychomancy is a divination tool that explains how a person’s nails signify energies that one intends to attract more of in their life. Essentially, the shape, health condition of a person’s nails as well as how it’s colored and/or designed carries messages from each person’s psyche and divine source(s). Once i’ve learned of this magick, doing my nails have helped me to become more aware of the energies that i need to embody more and which for me to release.

I thought it’ll be cool to analyze the inspiration behind my new set and discover what it is that i’m trying to manifest with them. 🎀🤍

This is what my new set looks like !

At first glance it’s pretty apparent that i’m going for a wintery snow vibe overall. Perfect for the colder January - early February days. Aesthetically, i was most inspired by:

clean, crisp, winter days when the branches turn to icicles.

The look of glaciers and ice during sunny mornings which in some shade turns everything white to a gorgeous translucent blue.

The waif-like elegance of figure skaters. Especially, the way a body could be disciplined to move, bend, and twirl on harsh and frozen surface.

The icy and delicate femininity of an “ice princess” appearance.

The catch however, is in my choice of coffin tips which is where onychomancy reveals the true inspiration and intention behind it.

🧊Grace Kelly in Rear Window (1954)

“She’s not cold. She’s a volcano covered in snow”

This quote from Alfred Hitchcock summed up the energetic essence of my nails. When Hitchcock was asked about his distinctly cool, blonde female leads, he disagreed with the consensus that she was merely icy and sterile or submissive. Instead, underneath the cool mask burns simmering passion and emotional complexity. Despite the calming or icy effect of the designs (depending on how you perceive them), coffin shaped nails according to onychomancy, corresponds to fire. I’m personally aiming to activate my tropical chart’s water houses 4,8, and 12, aka houses of things hidden and the subconscious. These houses in my chart are ruled by the fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius).

This set is less about manifesting an outcome and more focused on embodying a persona. In the book Hitchcock/Truffaut, Grace Kelly recurring presence on his films was described as a paradox between the inner fire and the cold surface: “she is sensitive, disciplined, and very sexy”. Such duality makes Grace and other women sharing similar roles on screen a compelling and mysterious force of art.

🪞Kim Novak in Vertigo (1958)

So my current nails shows rather than tells about the wearer. In a book of Onychomancy, it states how glass tips are like windows. A purely transparent set express full candor yet if it is embellished, the wearer may enjoy a bit of poetic license in its revelation. This is for someone who says “please look. but don’t touch”. I like how the book also states the support glass tips provide for setting boundaries and discernment which is something i’m trying to incorporate in the otherwise explosive self-expression of my inner truth. When I do express my emotions outward, I’m reminded that not everyone deserves to know this side of me. Color wise, my set can be placed in the light blue category. Based on color psychology this shade of blue symbolise patience, peace, and calmness. I view this color as Saturnian in nature. Because boundaries + coolness vibrates with Saturn.

A person whose fire elements is in her hidden houses posess a lot of passion and energy within a calm surface. There’s a tendency to hide this side of myself out of shame. I was made to feel that this authentic side of me was too much even frightening, thus not meant to be seen. I think my set wants me to feel safe expressing more of my fiery creative side by being assured that I’ll naturally remain “cool-headed” while doing so. I’m encourage by the intensity of my emotions and expressing my passions unapologetically without the fear of losing my mind. The addition of a 3D snowflake heart on my mars fingers (thumbnails) represents heart-centered willpower. Even if she’s a little cold, she’s not without life.

I find the women of Hitchcock thrillers act as invitations to explore the hidden inhibitions of his protagonist. If they aren’t capable of maintaining a healthy sense of mind, they’d lost it in the pursuit of her mysterious secret inner world. I think her independence, range, poise, and determination is something I like to embody more of recently💋.

*I don’t claim invention or expertise of onychomancy. For more depth on the subject you can check @/occult nails and @/taibunnii on Twitter.

*Ki Lunula books such as : “The Ancient Art of Onychomancy” and/or “Explorations in Onychomancy”are great sources of knowledge on this subject.

ms. lolly i'm getting glasses and i'm afraid i'm going to look uglier than usual in them. i don't want people to make fun of me (esp. not the guy i like. i dont think he will bc he's sweet but im still anxious) but. i'm afraid that people are gonna tease me. idk what to do and im super nervous bc i'm not attractive and i think the glasses are gonna just bring that out. do u have any tips on getting over that, as a glasses-wearer? (at least im assuming by your pfp)

sorry to disturb u with my silly ask but i hope u have a great day <3 love ur writing and huntlow posts

Hello! This kind of thing is hard to give advice on but I'll try my best :D! It's kinda like asking what kind of clothes will make you feel the most confident when only you know for sure what makes you comfortable and what doesn't. But I can definitely give you my opinions on glasses and what I feel best in and maybe you can take it into consideration.

(EDIT: OH MY GOD. I wrote a good bit about choosing glasses to feel nice in but I just read the ask again and it's possible you've already gotten them. Just scroll down to the bottom of the ask and I'll talk a bit about that if it's the case.)

You worry about not liking the way you'll look with glasses. That's okay, I've been wearing them since I was little so I feel really ugly without them. It's fine to feel a little insecure. But hopefully you'll find a pair that you think you like nice in!!

For the first ten years of wearing glasses, I had really small, thin wiry ones. Blegh. No wonder I felt so ugly during that time. They were not it. Was looking like this bitch.

But just cuz I didn't like the way they looked on me doesn't automatically mean you won't! Everyone's face is different.

Size matters (HAH) to me. I feel more happy and confident with the way my face looks with glasses depending on how big they are. I like how big glasses look. So when I was 18 I got THESE frames

And I liked them a lot!! I decided I like big wide glasses. So any frames I got from this point forward would look kinda like this.

However!! I kinda regretted the colour. It's like having a big big blocky border around your face dulls it a bit. So when I got new ones a few years later, I wanted them to be lighter. To brighten up the face area. These ones!!

They're pink!!! Or red maybe. But they're pink to ME!!! They are also EVEN BIGGER than the black pair I had. They're HUGE asgdbjnk. And I love them huge. The bigger the better. They're not really circular but they're also kinda roundish and I like that too.

So I guess think about the size, shape and colour. Would you like something more subtle like a small pair? Would you like them big and round? Getting them in a colour that you like Would definitely help!!

The thickness of the frames also matters. Maybe, since you're a little worried about how you'll look wearing them, you'd like something thinner? More subtle? Something in a pale colour/or without much of a border at all? Something that doesn't hide your face

Maybe something similar to this?

(I mean the frame thickness, not the size ahsbdjnk. We don't know what size you'd like yet.)

I kinda want glasses that look like this. I want thin gold ones like Miss Willow Park from hit Disney channel show the Owb Houb. However I don't really have that option. I'm borderline blind so I need the thick plastic frames to hold the thick as fuck lenses ahsbdjnk.

But since this is your first pair your eyes probably aren't nearly as bad and you have way more options!!

OKAY!! So if you've already chosen your glasses and are still worried about how you're going to look in them.

Alright, there are never any easy answers to this problem. How to get over not liking the way you look. People definitely like to pretend it's easy, that "Love yourself! Everyone is beautiful! :)" are these magic words that will suddenly rewire our brains into being happy and content with ourselves after a lifetime of feeling like the odd one out. When some people are put on a pedestal for how they look and some are not. It's hard to say physical ugliness doesn't exist when it's been beaten into everyone's heads that it does.

Despite everyone's best efforts to dismantle the concept of beauty standards, they persist relentlessly. They're roots in our brains, roots in society, and they're roots made of iron. So it is nobody's fault for being unsatisfied with themselves even after trying for so long to forcibly inject some girlboss confidence into their bloodstream. Its hard. It will always be hard.

If self love isn't easy at the start, aim for self neutrality. Just not hating is a good place to start.

It seems like you're not comfortable with yourself without glasses, so maybe if we start with that, your face with glasses will be way easier to accept.

In the end, you only have the one face to get you through this lifetime. And it's a lifetime you will waste if you spend it wishing it was different.

Everyone's face is a rearrangement of facial features, none of which are inferior to anyone else's, no matter what we've been mentally trained to believe.

You're a masterpiece all on your own. Every feature on your face belonged to someone in your family who came before you. Every feature you have was once adored by someone else. Specifically because it was a feature that belonged to a very wonderful person.

One day there will be someone who loves you more than anything. They'll love you so much than when they see a face that even looks remotely like yours they'll think that it's beautiful.

If it helps, mess around with your appearance a little. What colours do you like? Patterns? Skirts? Button up shirts? Long hair? Short hair? Dyed hair? Cardigans? Jangly jewelry? Figure out what's the most beautiful to you and add them to yourself. If you don't like your face, drown it out with what you do like. Until it gets to the point where its so distinctly you that you couldn't imagine this whole look without your face attached to it.

If you get to that point where you can feel happy with how you look as your default, then sliding a pair of glasses on and off shouldn't make much of a difference.

Thank you for telling me you like my writing and my posts. You seem sweet. I'm sure that's what people think when they're reminded of you. I'm sure that's what the guy you mentioned thinks. How can a person really be ugly if you associate their face with warmth and kindness?

Stay kind to others. Be kind to yourself. There's not much else I can say.

Good luck, love <33

Halo [Union]

The amulet must have been beautiful, once. Union had snatched it on the way out of a crumbling cultist cave, having recognized Sarenrae’s silhouette even without its colour or sheen. Outside, it didn’t take him long to realize it was desecrated. Cupping it like a baby bird, he had smoothed his thumbs over it, hoping to reveal her face. There was no change, and a frigid vacuum where power and warmth should have been, made starker next to his own holy symbol.

Union would have argued that being tarnished didn’t take away something’s former beauty. Anything in Sarenrae’s likeness was, by virtue of what she embodied, lovely. Having her holy symbol restored seemed to encompass all that she was—redemption and healing, brought to its best through care and devotion.

The Killjoys were spinning a lot of plates, but taking the amulet to the Temple of Renewal didn’t feel like it would tip any. He made regular visits when they were in Vasselheim. He couldn’t forget their roots—small problems were still problems. One stone could become a landslide—a ripple, a wave.

Mosaics of the rising sun passed under his feet as he made his way down the main aisle. The Temple of Renewal was a bright temple, filled with high windows that streamed in natural light. Stained glass and tapestries added colour and depicted her history—wine reds, golds, and whites.

He came to rest at the foot of her statue. Like when he’d regenerated his eye, he’d brought a small bowl topped with holy water. He knelt, dropping the trinket in. After letting it soak a moment, he fished it out by its chain and tried rubbing again with a cloth. The metal remained unaffected.

He curled his hands around it and pressed it to his chest, resting against his own holy symbol, his heart above his heart. He would try a remove curse, but first, a regular prayer.

“I found this amulet in a den of Asmodeus worshippers,” he said. “I would restore it, for he should never have the opportunity to hurt you again. He’ll never, as long as any follower of yours or I live, be able to extinguish your light.”

Their once-humble group was approaching a strength that could rival Asmodeus in a fight. Not individually, but as one. Even when Union had been briefly embittered towards godhood and lost his eye, he had never thought himself above or on par with them.

Reflecting, he didn’t know if it was a power he deserved, but it wasn’t one he’d take for granted. He had always promised to do good, and this was an extension of that. He didn’t just fight Asmodeus because he was vile and could use a good thwarting—he fought him for Sylus, and on behalf of everyone who couldn’t.

He prayed for protection, courage, and the same resolve that had moored him up until them. There would never not be evil—he was optimistic, not gullible—and he would be there to meet it every time.

He traced the sigil for the spell midair with one hand, still clutching the amulet in the other. He held it for longer than he needed to, six seconds tipping into a minute, almost worried to check that it had worked. If he couldn’t fix this, what chance did they have against Asmodeus?

He peeled open his eyes and looked. Its shine had returned, and in it, a kindling, ready for a new wearer. He sighed, shoulders relaxing.

A second pair of hands entered his vision, folding over his own. He glanced up, expecting another one of the clergy—but the temple had emptied, and standing above him was Sarenrae, stepped down from the plinth.

It wasn’t like Union hadn’t spoken with or basked in her presence before, but every time felt like the first—like he was experiencing sunlight after spending an eternity underground.

Everything about her had the inviting quality of a fireplace—warm brown skin and aurulent eyes so bright they were almost white, the core of any candle. She wore a magnificent halo of fire and radiant, flaming hair poured to the back of her legs. A pair of pearly feathered wings were tucked against her back, matching a simple but elegant dress that flowed all the way to the stones. He wasn’t sure that her feet were touching the floor, but she had a groundedness to her. Where Pelor blinded and awed, she was homey, a goddess you could curl up beside.

She smiled kindly. “Hello, Union.”

Union bowed his head, still kneeling. “Everlight.”

Holding his hands, she gently pulled him to his feet. She stood taller than him, though not half as large as her statue, taking on a more modest, humanoid size.

She turned over his hands, palms up, opening them to reveal the holy symbol. “Thank you for bringing this here.”

“Of course; I had to.”

“I heard your prayer. The more you grow, the easier it is for me to reach you. You asked for strength to defeat Asmodeus—truthfully, you have everything you need. Nevertheless, I would be honoured to help.”

She closed his hands around the amulet, hers woven overtop. Rays of light flared out from between their overlapping fingers. His palms warmed and the feeling spilled up his arms and washed through his entire body.

Separating their hands, the amulet had been sculpted anew. Two hands framed layered glass petals that curled into the Dawnflower. They looked as delicate and iridescent as dragonfly wings, but when he tapped it with a nail, he knew they were as resilient as diamonds.

“Allow me.” She lifted the necklace by its cord. He dropped his chin and she looped it over. It settled, like before, against his breast.

He marvelled at it, its latent magic already crackling and reaching out to join with him. “What will it do?”

“It will make your spells more potent, and allow you access to your divine powers more often.”

“How can I repay you?”

“You already have, many times over, and you exalt me by fighting against him. It’s not a coincidence that you share Asmodeus’ blood—it’s not unlike fate every time one his distant children find their way to me. You’re resistant to his fire and receptive to mine.”

She pressed her fingers atop his amulet. “It can be difficult to preserve one’s faith the more trials you endure, and gods know you’ve endured them. Every malevolent act is a test, but you’ve never wavered. I’m proud of you, Union. I would advise you to use it wisely, but I trust you will.”

Union sniffed, misty-eyed. “Thank you, Everlight.”

She nodded, once. Her smile bloomed into a grin. “And congratulations on your engagement.”

Union gave a pleased flush, shuffling on his feet. “Oh, thank you.”

“You and Twill will be happy together. Have you thought of hosting your wedding here?”

“It may be a joint ceremony with the Wildmother, but we’ve considered it, of course.”

She chuckled—the sound resonated. “Good.” She bent to kiss his forehead. “Go forth.”

How does Jim react to his Atomix form?

He absolutely did not expect turning into Atomix at all. Whenever Jim transforms, he has this instinctive feeling about any new form. This ranges from an action or emotion. For example, when he turns into Eatle for the first time Jim had the urge to eat.

Atomix? Explosive power. As for when he unlocked this, I say Eternal Night 2 in the Canonverse. Jim was really anger after what happen to his canon counterpart and just snaps when Gunmar lays his hand on the Trollhunter.

Appearance wise, I say this is the first instance where Jim has an alien that looks very very much like his human self. The closest being the Trollhunter armor with a visorless helmet as the grooves, horn tips and large Omnitrix symbol on the chest bubble in a pure teal glass like canon Atomix.

Our boy did rough up Gunmar until Canon!Jim have him focus that rage on the Gumm-Gumm Troops. Like Ben's Atomix, this one is righteous in personality but is closer to that of a lethal protector. One reason why he keeps it as an ace.

You know the watch wearer is getting serious if he abouts to unload a Nuclear Winner on someone.

Glass Bangles: A Must-Have Accessory for Every Traditional Ensemble

Glass bangles have been an integral part of traditional attire in many cultures, particularly in South Asia. These vibrant, colorful accessories are not just decorative pieces; they hold significant cultural and social value. Often worn during festivals, weddings, and other auspicious occasions, glass bangles enhance the beauty of traditional wear and symbolize femininity, grace, and prosperity.

Historical Significance

The tradition of wearing glass bangles dates back centuries, with evidence of their use found in ancient civilizations. They have been crafted from various materials, but glass has remained a favorite due to its versatility and the ability to create intricate designs. Historically, glass bangles were made by skilled artisans who would heat and shape molten glass into beautiful forms, often embellished with intricate patterns and colors.

Cultural Importance

In many cultures, wearing glass bangles is considered auspicious. They are often associated with good fortune and are believed to bring prosperity to married women. In India, for example, brides wear glass bangles as part of their wedding attire, symbolizing their marital status and the blessings of a prosperous married life. Each color of bangle carries its own significance, with red symbolizing love and passion, green representing fertility, and white denoting purity.

Variety of Designs and Colors

One of the most appealing aspects of glass bangles is the wide variety of designs and colors available. From simple, elegant bangles to heavily embellished pieces adorned with sequins, stones, and intricate motifs, there is something for everyone. Artisans often create bangles in sets, allowing wearers to mix and match different colors and styles to complement their outfits.

Styling Glass Bangles with Traditional Attire

Glass bangles can be styled with a range of traditional wear, including sarees, lehengas, and salwar suits. Here are a few styling tips:

Sarees: When wearing a saree, opt for bangles that complement the color and design of the fabric. A combination of thin and thick bangles can add depth to your look.

Lehengas: Choose bold, statement bangles that stand out against your lehenga. Mixing different colors can create a vibrant, festive look.

Salwar Suits: For a more casual yet elegant look, pair delicate glass bangles with your salwar suit. A set of matching bangles can elevate your outfit without overwhelming it.

Care and Maintenance

To keep glass bangles looking their best, proper care is essential. Here are some tips:

Avoid Impact: Glass bangles can be fragile, so handle them with care to prevent breakage.

Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the bangles regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they can dull the shine.

Storage: Store bangles in a separate pouch or box to prevent them from scratching or tangling with other jewelry.

Trends and Innovations

In recent years, glass bangles have seen a resurgence in popularity, with contemporary designers experimenting with new styles and techniques. Innovations include using recycled glass, creating eco-friendly bangles, and incorporating modern design elements to appeal to younger generations.

Conclusion

Glass bangles remain a timeless accessory in traditional wear, embodying beauty, culture, and tradition. Their vibrant colors and intricate designs continue to captivate wearers, making them a must-have in every jewelry collection. Whether you're dressing for a festival, wedding, or a casual outing, glass bangles can enhance your traditional attire, adding a touch of elegance and charm.

Falling stars, falling into places, falling thoughts

every star makes her mark

her legacy her last word her last wish

I can say so much to the stars in the sky

begging for a change for a new beginning a new wish to fulfill

I can say so much but never speak validation

whispers from the mirror don’t end my blind torture

it stings like a dagger hidden in a cloak, accidentally stabbing the wearer

have I worn the ring that tempts me to self contempt?

stringing down from my tower does my cascading blind hopes

offered to anyone who offers to climb them

but I am my own enemy, my own enemy in my own territory

who glorifies the other towers and castles

and wades in clandestine pools of muck and alligator tears and confusion and hate

my own anti-hero, trapped my own phantom in the mirror

I think but never do like stars who fell from the sky

they let go from their strings and met their beautiful fall, the eyes of Icarus

my thoughts do fall the same way they do like walking off the plank of captain hook’s ship

am I beautiful while I forsake my Eden and end up in my eternal resting place, Earth? have I mounted my grave and infused the carvings with warning signs?

Loki’s torture and smoke signals fan in my chest

it’s like pressing the stop button but nothing is working and all systems shut down

no mechanic can fix except me but then again I am my own enemy

as I venture into the looking glass into a world of speakers

with all my whispers and personalities amplifying every volume of insult inside of me

immunity cannot be a threat when you’re vulnerability is a dagger

to your own heart of weaved webs and remedies

an old library who no one dares to read

my number is lying on the phone for everyone’s curiosity to call

merely passed by like phantoms and dead over the heads of the souls and the living

Can I retrieve, like a dog, a lost victory? A lost dignity?

like a falling star who dived too deep in her thoughts

What irony - millions of showers fall and fan out without knowing they are falling

so, am I missing? Am I faulty? So, am I falling? or am I just writing, thinking over the fill line

like stars that twinkle and brighten in the dead of night

what are they thinking, I wonder, from one falling star to another?

thanks for reading :)) wrote this just now!! Thank u for the love on my last poem; I appreciate it so much!!

btw does anyone got tips on writing in ur own language?? Because im used to writing in English, but I got chosen to write for the a section in my school newspaper that only uses my native language I don’t have a problem understanding it but my vocab could be better my word choice could be better and im stressing out about it :(

Hope u guys had a lovely day today!! 💕

Tips and tricks for glasses wearers who don't like wearing their glasses, but don't want contacts, and want to wear their glasses more (based off my own experience):

Make sure you actually Like the glasses you have or wanna get. Now I know most of us never buy glasses we actively dislike, but do extensive thinking into the style of glasses you want before you buy them, and what was wrong with your previous pair that meant you didn't like wearing them. E.g, I didn't like wearing my last glasses much because, while their shape was really cool, the frame was rose gold, which really blended in with my skin colour too much and made it seem strange from afar. This time, I made sure to get black frames.

Ensure you know your face shape, and try to accentuate it. In the end, this can be a stylistic choice based on parts of your face you want to emphasise more and others you wanna minimise, but I've found a general rule of thumb is just scaling your frames to the general shape and size of your face. E.g, I have a big rounded-square kind of face, and so I like wearing huge square frames with some rounding best. however, again, shape is highly dependant on what the WEARER likes most, and what you feel the best in. If you have a square face but really like circle glasses, go wild!!!

Glasses chains/ropes. When you wear them round your neck, they can be highly useful in reminding you that you have glasses and that you should wear them, and they help me more than just having my glasses case in front of me. They come in a lot of cute styles, and can be made of different materials like metals, rope, beads, etc. While people have told me they give me a grandma or even librarian vibe, they are never hostile or mean spirited about them, and I get a lot of compliments! They are both stylish, and very effective to me.

About Makeup. I really really enjoy wearing makeup, especially eye shadow looks, and I want to show off my hard work. This is why I make sure to always wear huge glasses, or at least ones that allow you to see my eyelids. I always have a problem with base makeup like concealer and foundation, where you can see a visible mark left by the frames when I take them off. While I haven't put it into practice yet due to my forgetfulness, my best advice would be to figure out where on your face your frames sit, and avoid putting the skin makeup there. You can shear it out around the area where your frames are too, to blend your bare skin more to your makeup.

Figure out clothing colours you generally wear, and make sure your glasses match. This is pretty explanatory, as if you have colourful frames, sometimes you may not like how they look with a certain colour you want to wear. Neutral frames safest bet, with black frames matching everything, but again this is also a matter of preference and what YOU think matches,

Now I know this is probably not very useful if you don't plan on getting new glasses soon or don't have an opticians appointment booked, but I'd thought I'd share these tricks I accumulated that got me to the glasses I have now which I adore.

New Glasses Care Tips: Maintaining Clear Vision with Proper Care

Welcome to our comprehensive guide on new glasses care tips and eyewear maintenance. Your eyeglasses are not only a visual aid but also an important accessory. Proper care ensures they remain clear and functional, giving you optimal vision. Whether you're new to wearing glasses or a seasoned wearer, this guide will provide you with valuable insights on how to maintain your eyeglasses in top-notch condition.

Eyewear Maintenance Guide: Caring for Your Eyeglasses

Taking care of your eyeglasses is not just about aesthetics; it's about preserving their quality and extending their lifespan. By following a few simple steps, you can keep your glasses looking pristine and ensure your vision stays crystal clear.

Proper Glasses Care Routine

Creating a consistent glasses care routine is essential for maintaining their quality. Start by rinsing your glasses under lukewarm water to remove any dust or debris. Avoid using hot water, as it may damage coatings on the lenses. Then, apply a small amount of mild dish soap to the lenses and gently rub them with your fingers to remove oils and fingerprints. Rinse the glasses again under lukewarm water, and finally, gently pat them dry with a clean, soft microfiber cloth.

Lens Cleaning Instructions

Cleaning your eyeglass lenses properly is crucial for clear vision. Avoid using abrasive materials like tissues or rough fabrics, as they can scratch the lenses. Instead, use a microfiber cleaning cloth provided by your eyewear provider. If you're on the go, keep a small microfiber cloth in your bag for quick clean-ups.

Eyeglass Frame Maintenance

Caring for the frame is equally important. Regularly check for loose screws and gently tighten them with a small screwdriver if needed. Additionally, avoid placing your glasses face down, as it can cause scratches. Instead, store them in a protective case when not in use.

Taking Care of Your Spectacles: Dos and Don'ts

While caring for your eyeglasses, there are certain dos and don'ts you should keep in mind to ensure their longevity.

Dos:

Do use both hands: When putting on or taking off your glasses, use both hands to avoid uneven pressure on the frame.

Do use a proper cleaning solution: Use a lens cleaning solution recommended by your eyewear provider. Avoid using harsh chemicals or household cleaners.

Do store in a protective case: Always store your glasses in a sturdy case to protect them from accidental damage.

Do clean the case: Regularly clean the inside of your eyeglass case to prevent dirt buildup.

Don'ts:

Don't use your shirt or tissue: Avoid using your shirt, tissue, or paper towels to clean your lenses, as they can scratch the surface.

Don't leave glasses in direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can damage lens coatings and frame materials.
