Thanks, everyone
Bra story: I've been procrastinating like you would not believe. 1. I kept assuming/hoping I'd lose significant weight 2. I've been thinking about a breast reduction and wasn't sure I wanted to invest $000 in bras only to change sizes soon. However, it was too much of a need to keep ignoring , so in I went . I ended up with 3 beautiful bras - 2 of them on-sale. 2 from Chantelle and one other brand I can't recall, that was decidedly NOT on sale, and very expensive, and I didn't realize what I paid for it until I got home . MORTIFIED and a little annoyed too. Longer story though. The store owner showed me how to fit the bra onto my own body (some lifting and pushing and adjusting going on within the cups), and of course I ended up with sizes that aren't available at mass retail (department stores included). The biggest takeaway is that the underwire MUST be all the way around the great tissue and right under the armpit to be effective. This of course = a much wider, bigger cup size. UGH. I knew all of this but it's been a few years since I last was in a speciality lingerie store with knowledgable staff.
Re brows: I am obsessed with eyebrows , to say the least. I have almost no brow hair left, and what I do is now pure white. I have had them microbladed in the past, which was fine, but there is new-ish technique offered now called micropigmentation , which gives a more powdery, makeup-y look. I tried it , and prefer it, actually. In person they are not quite as pronounced and dark as they look in some photos, but they are certainly "there" , no doubt about it. I have such low-contrast features and a small face, and without distinct eyebrows, my face would be a vague blur. I believe that as we age, we benefit from some definition and structure to our faces, and defined brows do that. It sure makes getting ready in the morning a whole lot faster and on weekends with no makeup or in the pool, I still look presentable
