With my epic YA Urban Fantasy series coming to an end this November, I thought I would start a blog series called “Behind the Series”. And which better series to kick it off with than Chronicles of a Supernatural Huntsman? It was the first series I ever started writing and has captured my mind and heart for ten years now. It’s bittersweet to bring this story to an end, but I have some spinoffs in mind, so it it’s more of a The End…? I will say, this WILL be the end of Kamlyn’s story. And just so you know, while the beginning of this article does not contain spoilers, when I get into the breakdowns for each book they might, so if you’d like to read the books before knowing the details, I recommend doing that first!
I started working out the details for what was at the time the first book in the series “Earth Angel” back in 2011. It was a very different story back, then, though the bones of it were still the same. Back in 2006 I watched the first season of Supernatural and fell instantly in love. I’ve always been a monster fan, growing up on the classic horror movies of the 80’s and 90’s. This show was right up my alley! I loved that their job was hunting monsters to protect people, a theme that constantly runs heavy through Kamlyn and her series. The Winchester boys were dragged into this life by tragedy, very much like Kamlyn was when she saw her son murdered by a demon-goddess hag in the middle of the night. I think if anyone was going to get into the business of hunting monsters, it wouldn’t be for fun or from a job fair, it would be because they lost someone to the darkness and they either want revenge or to make sure no one else feels the loss they feel. In Kamlyn’s case, it’s both.
Another inspiration for my series was Cassandra Claire’s Mortal Instruments series. I watched the movie and show, hoping they’d continue though they didn’t. Honestly, I read the first three books in the series I think. I loved them but didn’t continue due to, well being 20 and busy and unfocused, but the story of the Nephilim stuck with me, which inspired Kamlyn’s background and abilities. I also loved the idea of realm traveling from Mortal Instruments. It was a unique twist to a supernatural story that I implemented into Kamlyn’s as well.
The inspiration behind the Chamber of Darkness training came from my time in Navy bootcamp. I was Kamlyn’s age when I went in and was mostly surrounded by eighteen and nineteen year old. It was extremely easy to get sucked into the teenage drama even though I was years beyond it, just like Kamlyn.
The inspiration for the design of the Chamber of Darkness came from the look of the Ministry of Magic from the Harry Potter movies. The black tile with gilt in between seemed just the right mood tone for my own Chamber. As you can tell, the name was also inspired from the series that made such a huge impact in my life. The rivalry between Kamlyn and Ryker Alexander was also influenced by the famous rivalry between Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy, but with my own spin on it. The MaGee twins, Achilles and Atticus, befriend Kamlyn during training and offer some comic relief to the story, a tip of the hat to the Weasley twins though only in personality. These twins are Irish Indian descent but lack the red hair of the Weasleys.
And like most books, a lot of it is influenced by the author’s life. When I built Kamlyn, I imagined her somewhat like myself with brown wavy hair. When I imagined her best friend, Cara Bellamy, I imagined my own lifelong childhood friend. She grew up with a strong faith and it showed in our friendship and how was always there for me, even when I wasn’t always there for her. That’s the dynamic I wanted for Kamlyn and Cara because it felt real and relatable.
Once Earth Angel was completed, I received a publishing deal with a small publisher in Tennessee almost immediately. She started working to change, well, almost everything about my book. She designed some covers and asked my opinion. They did not represent my dark urban fantasy story at all. The covers were religious looking with naked baby angels flying around. When I brought up this issue I was told the cover was made to represent her publishing company and not my book. This told me right away we were not going to work well together. We parted amicably and I have been self publishing ever since. I realized I love cover design as well as writing so why not do it myself? No one knows what images or designs will best represent my story better than me! The cover for Earth Angel was purchased after I separated from my publisher in 2012 and it was self-published on Amazon. Like most new authors with no clue how things work, I put it out there and was immediately disappointed it wasn’t a NYTimes Bestseller. What?! But it didn’t stop me. Kamlyn’s story was still inside me. I’d already become bffs with this broken girl, and so I decided to write the prequel to Earth Angel, becoming the first book in the series, Broken Angel, pushing Earth Angel to #2.
When I wrote Broken Angel it was in 2015 and my daughter was one year old. That really drove the emotions behind Kamlyn’s loss of her own son to the monster in the dark. It was so easy to put myself in her shoes and write it out. This book has gone through several cover changes. While I still love the previous one I designed it was not leading people to the series like the latest one does. Broken Angel is all about Kamlyn finding out about the monsters of the night and starting her training at the Chamber of Darkness to learn to hunt and destroy them. Cover #2 best represents that and the overall tone of the book.
I republished Earth Angel in 2015 with some major changes to the overall storyline and characters. I basically rewrote it. I wanted to keep it as the story closest to the inspiration from Supernatural’s Winchesters, a girl who roams the country in her father’s old pick up truck, hunting monsters and taking them down. What changed most was her relationship with Sari. He presents himself as her guardian angel, but he ends up revealing secrets about her past, including her heritage and special abilities. Kamlyn, the girl who hunts monsters for a living, isn’t entirely human herself! She’s Nephilim, part-human and part-angel. Sari, unlike in the first version has no romantic feelings for Kamlyn and she does not have any for him. He helps her realize what she is and how to control her powers so she can have a chance at defeating Lamia, the demon-goddess who killed her son. That is all. The inspiration for the title Earth Angel, came from the old 50’s song by the Penguins. In the first version of Earth Angel, Sari and Kamlyn go to an open mic night at a bar and he gets up there and plays acoustic guitar, singing this song for her. Sappy, romantic, bleh! Needed to go. But I still think about those days when Kamlyn and Sari were an item.
Since I paid for this cover I was reluctant to ever change it, plus I love the colors and the way it perfectly represents Kamlyn and her story here, so I built my other covers around it, using similar text, color, and design throughout the series to make them match.
But stories often have a way of running on us in directions we never thought they’d go. I started the series because I loved the idea of monster hunting, but in the third book we see an even bigger overall plot revealed. Kamlyn isn’t just traveling the country hunting monsters for the Chamber of Darkness for six books. The series has other plans for her. In Hunted Angel she finds out that the Chamber has been infiltrated by the fallen angels. They’d already taken so much from her, including her bond with the man she thought was her father, by revealing she was actually part angel herself. Her focus has shifted from revenge for her son’s death, to revenge against the angel who tore her whole world apart when he took advantage of her mother. Dark, right? New friends are made, old ones return, and now Kamlyn is hunted as a rogue Huntsman as she tries to figure out how to stop the angels.
Hunted Angel has also gone through several cover changes. I admit I like both, but the girl in the rain-soaked cloak represents the story more. It lets readers know there’s something supernatural in the story, because people don’t just walk around in cloaks anymore, right? And she looks a little suspicious and on the run with the darker colors and the rain. If I was being honest, I would say this is maybe my least favorite cover in the series, but I do still like it. Who knows, maybe it will go through another cover change in the future! I published Hunted Angel is 2016, on a roll with publishing one each year.
After Hunted Angel, I felt a little burnt out and needed some new inspiration for the story. I was sucked into the zombie craze going on from the Walking Dead series and iZombie, along with others, so my focus returned to my Dead Soil trilogy as I worked on writing the second book and a few prequel novellas for my Dead Beginnings Series. I also started my Zooey Zombie novella series, so as you can see I was busy. But the time away from Kamlyn’s story was just what I needed.
Wayfare Angel is where the story starts really opening up into something bigger, more epic, and involves higher stakes. It is one of my favorite books because Kamlyn and her friends spend a lot of time in a realm entirely from my imagination, the witch kingdom of Arianthe. The influence of Arianthe came from Disney’s Frozen. The name is similar to Arendelle. The scene is wintry because of the witch queen who has the power to control the weather from her angelic side and has a deep love of snow. She lives in an ice palace, a little on the nose but I couldn’t help myself. Her castle of Arianthe is just so beautiful and they spend a lot of time in there. The queen has luxurious white-blonde hair, as does her twin brother, but that is where the Frozen aesthetic ends. There is much more to Arianthe and the witches who inhabit it.
Secrets are revealed and Kamlyn’s new powers are put to the test as she seeks out her half-siblings and they teach her how to harness the Light within her. I love stories with huge twists, so this is one of the first big twists in the series that got me excited about where Kamlyn was going next.
I loved the idea of different realms and portal travel. There’s so many examples of this in Fantasy it’s hard to pinpoint just one that gave influence to it in my novel.
The influence for the title came from Supernatural’s theme song “Carry on my Wayward Son.” Though I didn’t like Wayward Angel. To me, it made her sound like she was drifting aimlessly, which was not the case. Kamlyn had a clear purpose to her mission in Wayfare Angel. I think I invented my own word in Wayfare though because everything is telling me it’s Wayfarer but again, I didn’t like the sound of Wayfarer Angel.
And then there’s the dragons! Of course, much of the influence for the dragons, their behavior, and the fact that they can be ridden came from Game of Thrones and the Targaryens. (Among many other stories in the fantasy genre). This was my first time writing about the elusive creatures, but it definitely will not be my last. I really love imagining what it would be like to touch them, interact with them, cooperate with them in preparations for battle.
Rebel Angel continues the story line of Wayfare Angel. Kamlyn and her core four (Jake, Cara, Don, and John) continue traveling realms and learning new powers from half-siblings. There’s a lot of travel in this one, which I loved. It was like Kamlyn was building her own resistance to the Darkness, which is reminiscent of Star Wars and the rebellion against the Empire (along with many other fantasy stories of rebellions). Mermaids, Vampires, Demons, Kamlyn will visit them all, even hell itself, to ensure her side wins.
I love to travel, even though I haven’t been many places yet. I have big plans! I live vicariously though Kamlyn who gets to travel across the world through portal hopping and her searches for her half-siblings. A lot of the time, I am writing about a place I’ve never been, but to recreate the scene I like to “walk” the streets with google maps. You don’t get the sounds and the smells, but that’s where my imagination comes in. Some day, I will have been to as many places as Kamlyn has! (Except the otherworldly destinations).
Everything in the story is building up to a giant war of good vs evil, much like the culminating war in the Harry Potter series. Both sides converge in a familiar and magical place to battle out for the fate of, well, the world really. In Harry Potter, it was Hogwarts. In Warrior Angel, it’s Arianthe.
I absolutely love this cover. I was so excited when I found this collection on Shutterstock and they were done so beautifully that there was very little editing that needed to be done to it at all. I knew that for the last book I wanted to have something angelic but also otherworldly. This fit the bill perfectly. I don’t love that she looks like a Victoria Secret model in a bikini because that’s so not Kamlyn, but I did my best to kind of shadow that out.
I am Greek so I knew I wanted to incorporate its history and legends heavily into the final story of Kamlyn’s but it was reading the Lore that gave me the idea to modernize the Greek Gods and have them a part of society, hidden among it. I studied their likeness from photographs of their statues to make sure descriptions were classical, but for the most part I modernized their clothing and speech and sometimes even their personalities, though I wanted to stick close to ancient writings and how the Greek Gods behaved in them.
And who can really even imagine an Amazon without thinking of Gal Gadot and her Wonder Woman crew anymore? It was fun to do a new and different take on them, hidden among society as well in women’s gyms all over the world. What better way to stay battle ready and not draw attention to yourself? Expect lots of workout clothes, long French braids, and envious statures, which was a lot of fun to write. There is no Diana, but Hippolyta is in there as the descendant of the original Amazon queen Hippolyta. In my story they are mere mortals who have trained since the age of five for a war they knew would one day come. They were also given enchanted battle weapons to aid them.
Warrior Angel was my first time writing a battle scene, and I have to say I am pretty proud of how it turned out. It was epic! There are so many people, so many characters, so many creatures and beings to keep track of that I had to keep going back and adding in scenes because someone got left out or forgotten. I probably could have gone back and added to it a hundred times, but I try not to be obsessive like that and just let the writing flow from me. I am very happy with the way it turned out and it definitely prepared me for my upcoming Fantasy trilogy I’ll be writing next year, which also will culminate in a good vs evil epic battle scene.
And that is the behind the scenes facts for my epic 6 book YA Fantasy series Chronicles of a Supernatural Huntsman, coming to its conclusion with the release of Warrior Angel tomorrow! You can still preorder it today through Kindle to wake up to a nice little surprise in the morning Tuesday. The entire series is free with Kindle Unlimited for a limited time. Happy Holidays and Happy Reading!

Arrested or charged with a DUI or DWI?
Driving under the influence (DUI) means operating a motor vehicle after consuming alcohol or drugs that have impaired a person's mental or motor skills. In most states, a person will be considered "impaired" if they exhibit objective signs of intoxication, or if they have a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher. Many states also have zero tolerance laws for drivers under 21, where any non-zero BAC level constitutes an offense. Most states also hold commercial drivers, such as truck drivers, to a more rigorous standard.
Law enforcement officers use a variety of tests, such as field sobriety tests and breathalyzers, to determine whether a driver is impaired by alcohol. In some jurisdictions, you have a right to refuse some of these tests, but in other jurisdictions you may be required to submit to them. It is important to know the law in your particular state, and to consult a DUI attorney if you are facing charges.
DUI lawyers are criminal defense attorneys focused on representing clients facing DUI/DWI/OWI charges. Each state has different DUI laws. An experienced DUI lawyer will be able to evaluate the case against you and present your options on how to best limit the impact of the charges against you. DUI lawyers also handle related cases such as driver's license reinstatement and DUI record expungement.
Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC): The percentage of alcohol in a person's blood.
Field Sobriety Test: Any one of several roadside tests that can be used to determine whether a driver is impaired.

On February 23rd, hundreds of NYC voters in Quinn's district are expected to participate in a rally and press conference at a public hearing to express their dismay about major development in Greenwich Village - development which will undoubtedly be supported by Quinn, given her track record of repaying her estate donors at the expense of local communities in NYC.
is a great opportunity to reach politically active voters and the press with our messages about why Quinn should be voted out of public office.
Please let me know if you can make it: email
We will send a confirmation a couple days before.
When: Thursday, Feb 23rd, 5:30 - 7:00 p.m.
Where: 151-155 Sullivan Street (below Houston) at St. Anthony of Padua Church
As an aside, the press is finally reporting on our campaign against Quinn. In this article, the reporter writes, "As Council Speaker Christine Quinn prepares to run for mayor, the body's first openly gay speaker retains strong support in the LGBT community - but is despised by a vocal minority who believe her politics have been far too moderateon issues from paid sick leave to the living wage bill. That dissatisfaction has been most visibly demonstrated by a group led by animal rights activist Donny Moss, who seems to protest nearly every Quinn event."

I am hugely excited to be able to tell you all that I shall be releasing my third book in March – Nourish & Glow: The 10 Day Plan.
I felt especially humbled by your wonderful feedback in response to my two previous books, Eat. Nourish. Glow. and Cook. Nourish. Glow., but I also listened intently to what else you’d like my guidance on. I’ve since been working away like crazy (but very excitedly) behind the scenes to create my biggest, most comprehensive book yet.
This new book is my ultimate guide on how to eat well: now and forever. In a modern world where we regard slimness to be the ultimate goal, who can blame us for losing sight of the fact that our bodies require an abundance of nutritious foods – most vitally, healthy fats – to maintain vibrant mental and physical health and wellbeing? So, forgetting past and current fads, and the negativity and angst so many of us now feel around food, ‘Nourish & Glow’ encourages you instead to fully embrace the wonderful, nourishing positives of healthy eating.
Far more than a mere cookbook, ‘Nourish & Glow’ is a comprehensive workbook that you can dip in and out of as you please: from understanding how our mindset affects our eating habits; tackling common trip-hazards that have held us back in the past; to ‘wiping the slate clean’ of all the confusing and contradictory nutrition messages we’ve heard in the past, we start by creating strong new foundations to build upon. Then, together, we build on lost confidence using my unique and exclusively curated tool, the Positive Nutrition Pyramid, which will ensure you are unequivocally nourishing yourself with all of the essential ingredients needed for a happy, healthy body and mind. You’ll also find 50 brand new gluten, dairy and refined sugar-free recipes, complete with vegan and vegetarian alternatives. Finally, we will explore how to adapt this positive way of eating to your own, unique and constantly changing life.
I am enormously proud of this book and I hope you will love it, too. I look forward to sharing more about it over the coming months but, for now, if you’d like to transform your relationship with food for the rest of your life, it is available to pre-order on Amazon, just follow the link below:

In a relative order: Mircea Tiberian/Toma Dimitriu – The Pale Dot
Issued in the end of 2015, at Fiver House Records, The Pale Dot was recorded during a single day at the National University of Music in Bucharest.
Prominent figure of the Romanian contemporary jazz, Mircea Tiberian chooses (or is perhaps chosen) as a partner for this record by the younger pianist Toma Dimitriu. At first glance, The Pale Dot might seem a collaboration between master and disciple, but things are not so at all: the nine tracks on the album are all musical interactions taking place on an equal footing between two mature musicians with well articulated speeches.
What can rather easily be remarked about the music of this album is the lack of any excessiveness, of any rough touches or parades of virtuosity. Even if the stylistic range covered is quite extensive, the music has in every moment its own coherence, its own internal logic that allows itself to go beyond the concreteness of harmonic progressions of blues, of habanera rhythms or allusions to walking bass or free jazz techniques. Of course, a major contribution to this feature has the way in which the pieces were designed from the outset (most belong to Mircea Tiberian, two are written by Toma Dimitriu and two are collective creations). The subtlety that characterizes Tiberian both as performer and composer is shared by his partner. The final artistic product is thus protected from the recourse (and addiction eventually) to common places of jazz performance that may confer the music an easy, shallow appeal. On the contrary, here musical ideas follow their natural flow unencumbered.
It should not be overlooked that, in addition to stylistic homogeneity and conceptual unity that emerges throughout the album, at the interpretative level, the two musicians make together a flawless team. Despite the fact that Tiberian and Dimitriu have a completely different and uneven experience, it is extremely difficult to distinguish the two in their solo performances (I, for one, gave up on this challenge). Lacking such a fluctuation, The Pale Dot has many moments where the music seems to be performed not by two, but one person. Although they might be accused of a lack of individualization of each instrumentalist, I still think that giving up on this aspect in favour of the unity of the final artistic product was, in this case, an inspired decision.
Artist operating equally well in several stylistic regimes, Mircea Tiberian moves away from the daring experiments that have characterized some of his recent albums to engage with the exploration of more conventional harmonical and melodical structures. Therefore, the merit of the current album is precisely that it succedes in shaping firmly its individuality within a language apparently exhausted. To achieve this, the two musicians knew how to simplify and essentialise various classic jazz structures (either melodic, harmonic or rhythmic), to use later in a slender shape and partially detached from their usual meanings. On this foundation, Tiberian and Dimitriu discreetly inserted their own creative interventions the final outcome being a diverse, well-proportioned product, able to articulate its own vision on means of expression defining for the jazz universe.


Hi everyone, this is Paul Cameron in the WBTV Newsroom. You've probably seen movies or TV shows where someone breaks into a car and surprises the driver when they get in. That scenario happened to a pair of sisters with a frightening twist. A man got into their car early in the morning when it was still dark out. He popped up and demanded money. They screamed and fought him off. It's got neighbors in the small town of Kings Mountain very concerned.
A 13-year old girl we reported missing two nights ago, has been found safe and sound. Zacariya Cureton disappeared from her grandmother's home in Wesley Heights but police found her tonight in Uptown Charlotte.
NC health officials flu virus killed five more people last week. The state's total is now 27-- 22 of those people were younger than 65.
Have you every heard of a crook blasting his way into a business? Police have given me exclusive video of a burglar who used his gun to shoot out a glass window, then he reached inside the Cook Out Restaurant on Sardis Road North and opened the door. Once inside, he went straight to the safe and registers to steal all the cash. Police believe he's the same criminal who robbed a Cook Out in Denver in Lincoln County using the same method.
For most people, their pet is their family. Tonight, Brigida Mack is looking into a new smart phone app from the Red Cross which pet owners can use in case of a pet emergency.

SuChin Pak 00:00
Hey friends, welcome to another episode of add to cart I’m so excited today. This is a show about the things we buy and buy into. I’m Susan Pak.
Kulap Vilaysack 00:20
And I’m Kulap Vilaysack. We are very thrilled for our two guests today for they have the beauty knowledge Sue and I strive for. Our guests are two longtime beauty editors who have seen it all and swatched it all one is currently a freelance writer and the other working as the resident beauty expert for the Maryland Dennis show on CTV please add to cart the hosts of breaking beauty Jill Dunn and Carlene Higgins.
Carlene Higgins 01:02
I feel like we’re all kind of like sisters here because what that’s what we do too is Add to Cart. So we’re kind of like the flip side of what you guys do where the beauty aisle, you know?
Kulap Vilaysack 01:14
Oh, yeah, that is a place we are very comfortable.
SuChin Pak 01:17
It’s my sanctuary.
Kulap Vilaysack 01:18
I’ll speak for myself, need guidance.
SuChin Pak 01:24
We all breaking beauty. I know you guys are have it on the website, you have it on your shelf. But I like to really go in with pen and paper. You know what I mean? Just like live, live take notes as you guys are talking. Listen, we’ve had a lot of guests on the show love them all. But there are very few guests where I’m like, this is a podcast that I religiously cannot miss.
Carlene Higgins 01:50
Honestly, we love to hear that it’s like music to our ears. Because we feel like there are so many beauty products, everybody’s inundated. And so that’s really what we set out to do when we started the podcast as beauty editors, we’ve you know, like you said, we’ve seen it all swatch doll. So we just wanted to help people not waste their money.
Kulap Vilaysack 02:10
We’d like to ask like, what is your style? Like? What is your, your shopping food, if you will? How do you buy? How do you consume?
Jill Dunn 02:20
I think that I get a lot of satisfaction. And I know the two of you do too, from just adding to my cart, even if I’m not always checking, checking out I love to get those emails at midnight. And that says, literally, I got one last night from our brand that said your cart misses you and I was like, well, at least somebody does. I will look until the end of the earth for something I never make a snap decision. That also is true in many other aspects of my life. I’m a Gemini, I’m almost like but this side, but this side, but this side. And I’ve always liked going back and forth. So I feel like I really love the research part of shopping. And it’s not even necessarily to like get the best deal. That’s always feels good. But it’s more just like getting in there and knowing why something’s trending and just kind of like understanding the cultural zeitgeist moment like, okay, Emma Chamberlain is wearing Samba sneakers. I guess I have to go back and buy those again. I already wore them the first time around, but that’s the kind of stuff I’m doing when I’m shopping.
Kulap Vilaysack 03:21
So you’re like an anthropologist.
Jill Dunn 03:25
Yeah, like investigative reporting.
SuChin Pak 03:26
Yeah. Yeah, that’s, that is. It’s like an it’s like a, I don’t know, it’s like a thing you can’t turn off. Like, I wish I could just be like, this. This is good. This is good enough. Like, let’s just buy the thing that’s in the store on this site. I can’t do it. And I haven’t hot which is why I listen to podcasts like yours because I have to get all the information, all the perspectives before and it doesn’t matter if it’s $2, doesn’t matter if it’s $2,000. It’s the same amount of effort that goes into it.
Kulap Vilaysack 04:03
What she described like, I wish I could buy this like coffee, I’ve already had three of them. In that time. She was describing me. Carlene how about you?
Carlene Higgins 04:20
Okay, well, I would describe myself as a bougie bitch on a budget. I love everything bougie, I really do. I worked at a fashion magazine for over 12 years you know, we were like flown around and treated right and driving in black cars and you know, going to fashion week and all that stuff. But I would like shop the sample sales whenever I would go to New York, you know, I would I would look them up online and I would hit them and I would you know the thrill of the find, the mythical chanel sample sale. That was the best thing ever. I got a $4,000 tweed blazer for $400.
SuChin Pak 05:12
That’s the one in Paris, obviously?
Carlene Higgins 05:14
No, they used to have sample sales in probably every city for media. And so they had one in Toronto, and I got to go to one before they canceled the sample sale. And now I have it on good authority. They just burn everything. They burn it all.
Carlene Higgins 05:21
That’s ow they keep the prices, a Chanel, you go into a thrift store and you’re like, this is more expensive than that. I don’t even understand how the math on this works.
Carlene Higgins 05:46
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And with beauty too. I love the Bougie skincare. But I really do like to try to help people find deals. So you know anything for less or I know dupe culture is not very ethical. But I do like to find like a cheaper version of something and help people out. And Jill, I can’t believe you didn’t mention this because we always joke about this. Jill is a drugstore girly, like she loves the drugstore finds. And that’s actually what I love about gel because we’re kind of opposites that way. And she, whenever she does her TV segments, because I think she’s also learned with the audience there. It’s like you try and hit them with some Barbara Sturm shit for $300. And they’re just like, literally laughing her off the stage, you know, and she’s not going to come with that.
Jill Dunn 06:38
And I think I think the other thing I was thinking about this the other day is just like drugstore products have just come a long way like the makeup at drugstores used to be just like chalky crap that you couldn’t test and you couldn’t see it. And now there’s just like, with the explosion of like DTC affordable brands, like direct to consumer or the color pops of the world. They’ve just forced the people like Maybelline, CoverGirl, whatever to really step it up. And so I think that the quality is, you know, better than ever at a drugstore price point. And I think another thing is just from our magazine days, and, you know, we both worked in magazines for many years. And you get to the point where, honestly, a lot of editors, I felt like I was a little bit more cost conscious than most, but they didn’t even know what things cost guys, and I’m here to tell you, a lot of them weren’t trying anything. They were just like, it’s purple. It’s going on the purple page, because that’s totally director said.
Carlene Higgins 07:22
I can attest, that is how it was it was really like, I don’t even care what the price is, you know, the fact checker can deal with that. And I think that’s, that’s one of the great things about being a beauty podcaster I think versus being a beauty editor is we’re so much more in touch with our audience directly. Like they’re literally DMing us and they’re like I bought this because of you will I don’t want to be on the hook for somebody buying something that they think is terrible, because I said it was good. So I really like I work hard to test product. I’m wearing fuchsia eyeshadow today people, coz I’m testing it. My son just told me I look like I haven’t slept in days, you know, and but I’m wearing it. I’m trying to rock it. You know?
Kulap Vilaysack 08:25
This is research that you are scientists.
SuChin Pak 08:33
Taking the hits before we really have to exactly like that. This is exactly what we want from you guys.
Kulap Vilaysack 08:41
You are first responders of the beauty aisles.
Carlene Higgins 08:44
We are responders will take the metal anywhere. We can get it.
Kulap Vilaysack 08:51
I’m so excited to dive into your carts. Let’s start with Jill. Jenny bird sunglasses. Who knew, I didn’t know.
Carlene Higgins 09:00
Can you put them on while you talk? Let’s see these.
Jill Dunn 09:04
Yes, I’m going to do the reveal. So Jenny bird if you guys haven’t heard of her before, she is a jewelry designer. based in Toronto. She has been around for about 10 years. Her style and aesthetic is just so wonderful. Everybody from Kylie Jenner to Selena Gomez has worn her pieces and she’s just like always on the red carpet and very creative. Very, very talented. So she’s just launched sunglasses. I literally got them this afternoon and I am so obsessed. They’re called the brow and just so good.
SuChin Pak 09:38
Oh, she just went from like, in front of a mic to a red carpet like that looks like a Haley Bieber esque. Like Jenner ask sunglass.
Jill Dunn 09:53
It’s ridiculous. Like I’m not in my 20s but so I can’t wear the cool wrap y2k ones like they’re just a bit much for me. But these are really cool. They’re like a bit of a slight cat eye shape. Tortoise shell, or Yeah, like tortoise kind of print on the bottom. And a cantaloupe. It’s called tortoise shell and cantaloupe is the color that I have on and love that we’re supporting a female owned business, and she just dropped these like, in August, so they’re really selling. These are going to like 200 bucks. Yeah, like 200 bucks.
Kulap Vilaysack 10:26
I like it looks great on you.
Jill Dunn 10:30
Kulap Vilaysack 10:31
What do you think, Su? Could you rock this?
SuChin Pak 10:33
Oh, I could definitely rock those. I feel like it just like, hide so much. If your sunglasses are doing more of the work, you know, I like to tell Ku you know, sometimes she’ll compliment me on my makeupand I’ll say it just hides the decay you know the decay of the interior the decay of your soul however way you want to do it.
Kulap Vilaysack 10:55
Sometimes she says the rot, I find way more disturbing.
SuChin Pak 11:00
Yeah, that’s like a mid-week, a mid-week sliding into the weekend. I’m like it. Wow, I have to hide the rot. But Jill, I applaud you for even buying sunglasses online.
Jill Dunn 11:13
I totally agree with you. Because I just feel like my face shape is a little bit water. Sometimes I feel like sunglasses just look ridiculous on me like, so I had to try them on. And they actually created virtual Instagram filters for each of the styles. So I did try them all on. And I was like these ones. I was like, Oh, these actually look good. And it was kind of like a really good filter because it was 3d and you could see the sides like you could see the arm the sunglass go over your ear. I was very impressed. So I was not disappointed when I got them.
SuChin Pak 11:44
What does that mean a 3D filter. It’s like it’s just you go?
Jill Dunn 11:49
When I turned my head. I could see the side of the glasses and how they would look on me on profile.
SuChin Pak 11:55
Amazing. Amazing. I mean technology. Am I just late to this game? Like is this been around forever?
Jill Dunn 12:01
Well, no, I think doing it on Instagram is pretty new. There’s a lot of try on filters with like eyeglass companies and things like that.
SuChin Pak 12:09
Hot Tip. That’s how you do it.
Kulap Vilaysack 12:14
Speaking of social media, Carlene is something that is been big on Tik Tok. Of course, I know nothing about it. And I’m really excited to hear about the K-18 Hair Mask.
Carlene Higgins 12:27
Okay, the K-18 hair mask I’m going to be honest, is the greatest thing that’s happened to the beauty world since Olaplex. At least if not sooner, you know, it’s huge, huge news. Especially for bleachy blondes like myself, if you’re not a natural blonde, it really changes the texture of your hair. And we had the founders on our show just a couple of weeks ago. One of them is a scientist, and he was explaining it. But really what he said that resonated with me is that it’s like retinol for your hair. So if you think about retinol, and what that meant in the skincare world, that was like a massive ingredient because it actually goes beyond cosmetically, just putting a skincare cream on your face, the ingredient actually has, it’s a drug essentially. And you can get different versions of it where it’s, it’s less intense, but it actually changes the chemistry of your skin. So that’s what they’re saying it does to your hair to rebuild the bonds and make your hair softer and basically restore it to a healthier state. So what you get at the end of the day, the before and after is just like shinier and softer, like visible difference in your hair. So that’s why it went crazy on TikTok so basically what you do, and I have it here somewhere it’s this little bottle and you use it in place of your conditioner. So you just like you wash your hair as per usual. You towel dry it you try to get it they said like 70 to 80% dry. They say you use one drop just one drop, that’s all it takes. I use two because I have long hair and a lot of damage. And then you just let it sit in your hair for four minutes and then you brush it out and you do whatever you want to do next if you want to add a curl product if you want to blow dry if you want to walk away whatever you want to do, they just don’t want you piling on other products before the four minutes are up. That’s all you do. And like I just blow dried at the other day. I did a little reel for Instagram and it’s like so much straighter and softer. It looks like I used a straightening iron but I didn’t and I use no other like there was so much less frizz and I didn’t use any styling products after like it’s just the visible before and after to me I knew is the first time I tried it. I was like this is gonna be a big deal. This can be a huge deal. And it’s completely good.
Kulap Vilaysack 14:59
So our listeners to have never heard me be so silent when someone else is talking.
SuChin Pak 15:04
I have been on a hair journey like Ku, are you adding to cart?
Kulap Vilaysack 15:13
I’m not even talking about my cart now it’s because I used to be, I had a year to year long journey of being blonde. I lived by I mean I needed all blacks but what you’re describing which, Su, when was I blonde like not that long ago now like the technology has like.
SuChin Pak 15:33
Pre-pandy you were blonde.
Carlene Higgins 15:36
No joke. I just went to a new hair colorist like three weeks ago. And she’s like your hair. I’m going to be honest; it’s really damaged. She said before we do all of her highlights I need you to use que tiene for two weeks at least to get your hair back in the condition where I can even dye on top of it.
Kulap Vilaysack 15:56
Again, you’ve blown my mind like I have just through the pandemic I’ve let my salad pepper just come all the way through. And I described to the other day have I painted myself into a Silverfox corner because I do you always want to have the option to change if I so desire. But it is hard for me to Yeah, like to go back. I mean, I was just, I was on the chair a lot. doing various things but now with this K-18 I’m like, Okay, it’s a new dawn baby. It’s something new. Oh, I don’t know.
SuChin Pak 16:33
Final question. Is there a cent?
Carlene Higgins 16:35
Not that I notice.
SuChin Pak 16:37
Okay, great. Add to Cart.
Kulap Vilaysack 16:49
Speaking of hair, Jill, your hair looks amazing. Is it due to the new and improved dyson air wrap?
Jill Dunn 16:59
It is the dyson air wrap. I haven’t, have a lot of your guests recommended the air wrap. I’m curious.
Kulap Vilaysack 17:10
No, no. But I of course, I’ve been following things on TikTok and Instagram and watching and I’ve asked my person if it would be good on my hair. She was like, I don’t know. So I need to hear from you.
Kulap Vilaysack 17:21
So in 2020, that’s when I really became enamored with the air wrap. But there were a few clunky bits about it, which was that the barrels that you put on to curl your hair you used to have to switch them on and off. It was a whole thing. And like Carlene is already zoning out it was like way too much for her when I used to explain it.
SuChin Pak 17:39
This is exactly why I can’t get into it. I can’t get into it. There’s too many parts.
Jill Dunn 17:44
Yeah, so but the new and improved one they’ve they have put it made it so that you just have the one Airwrap barrel, it’s a lot simpler to use a lot easier. And they have the best tool ever. And I feel like you’d like this. It’s called the flyway tool. So this uses airflow and not heat intelligent, kind of designed SuChin to lay down all of your hair and it is insanely smoothing. So anybody out there, do you see this.
SuChin Pak 18:15
All day long, I just have sprouts of hair.
Jill Dunn 18:24
Every person who has curly hair, whatever. They’re just like awkward their postpartum and they’re like, I don’t know what is going on. I have all of these little weird baby hairs and they stick out of my ponytail and there’s only so many like hair waxes I can use to like calm them down. So this is a way of using like airflow and not like a searing heat of a straight iron to make the hair look super shiny and smooth. And it’s pretty genius. The whole thing with the new Dyson air wrap it’s got 6 attachments that come with it for $600 and your hair texture and the quality of your hair is unquestionably way better and healthier. Like I don’t need to get as many trims.
Kulap Vilaysack 19:09
Okay, this is interesting, because I’m gonna game SuChin’s feelings right now. She was like, whoa, whoa, do I become a hair person? I never really cared about hair. And then you drop the price tag on her, and I saw her eyes.
SuChin Pak 19:29
Jill Dunn 19:31
Yeah, but look Jill’s hair.
SuChin Pak 19:34
Before we recorded I said Jill I’m not going to comment on your hair right now off mic. I’m going to comment on it on Mike because it looks professionally done but who knows she may be adding to cart something.
Jill Dunn 19:48
It’s out there. I don’t know guys. I feel like this is going to be on a lot of people’s Christmas wish list but I also know a lot of people that buy it and return it because they get it they’re like I don’t know how to use it and they freak out. They freak out because they have spent $600 on it. What have you or somebody like?
Carlene Higgins 20:05
If you bought me a wolf stove you know I’m still not cooking, you know?
SuChin Pak 20:17
She’s getting on with her life.
Kulap Vilaysack 20:23
Let’s talk about some mascara off. Speaking of Chanel, we talked about Chanel earlier, I’m putting Chanel and Carlene together. What is this noir allure mascara?
Carlene Higgins 20:42
This is the limousine of mascaras. It’s extra-long, it’s like stretch the bullet Okay, and it’s got sort of this gold and on it and you pop it up you don’t have to twist so it’s going to shave off like a second of your beauty routine. Which is awesome. No and then it’s really a regular type of mascara but what I think people will like about it what I like about it is that it has like conditioners in it so it kind of helps with the health of your lashes over time now. I actually have very basic criteria when it comes to mascara because I have hooded eyelids and they’re quite oily as well. So if my lashes look great, and it doesn’t transfer or smudge, or flake then that’s like that’s already checked a huge box for me and then if I can wash it off without like ripping off my eyelashes because it’s too like it’s adhering too much to my lashes and I really like that too. So this one I can attest I’ve tried it and it like checks all of those boxes for me plus is really beautiful and it comes in its own little, look at this, a little mascara box.
Kulap Vilaysack 22:03
You got me there; you sold Su when you said oily lids.
SuChin Pak 22:09
I call them my omega three lids just a salmon sitting on top, I mean how does this compare to say like Thrive Cosmetics which for me that, that mascara is like a game changer?
Carlene Higgins 22:26
Absolutely it is and I was gonna say you know this is a $44 mascara does do people need an expensive mascara like this, heck no, if you want to treat yourself to something that Chanel be able to walk out of the store with a little Chanel bag then go ahead go for it.
Jill Dunn 22:42
I think you said the other day Carlene that it because it’s red inside this black gorgeous case. You said that that’s a nod to the inside of some Chanel bags. Is that true?
Carlene Higgins 22:51
Yeah. Like you know some of the Chanel bags have that sort of dark burgundy-ish red and in fact, this is kind of like a gimmicky thing you guys but the actual tint itself they say has a dark red to it that’s supposed to make your lashes I don’t know give it some more depth or something but I honestly did not detect that so I’m gonna call BS on that one but it’s a great everyday mascara like this isn’t gonna give you the huge you know the big Twiggy lashes but it’s a great everyday mascara that’s not going to do you wrong suck she’s not gonna do you dirty there’s gonna be no smudges you know? You don’t have to be embarrassed.
Let’s keep talking about some skincare. How about the pillow talk DERM skincar?
SuChin Pak 23:46
Jill. This was on my list of questions. I was going to ask you to like just hit Add to Cart and purchase please tell me.
Jill Dunn 23:57
Okay, so I actually have it right here. And it’s a three piece debut. And he just, of course wants to support to support the pillow talk to him. Of course, if you guys aren’t familiar, she’s the wonderful dermatologist based in New York who got famous on Instagram for doing little dermatology updates and asked me anything’s right from her bedroom. So she wore her PJs and she just did like every single night especially in the pandemic, giving like free skincare advice to anyone who was in her DMs basically and I think she has like 700 and some 1000 followers now it’s pretty incredible. And she was on our show and it was like one of my favorite interviews we’ve ever done just because she has this approach that’s like no bullshit and just cut to the chase and give such direct good information very tangible takeaways. It’s not like well, it really depends on your skin type. She’s like no, do not pick that up does not work for you. Next question. So really appreciate it. And even in the press release, so the trio of products are called the it’s all about Treatment Treating hyperpigmentation. And it’s like a brightening line basically. So it’s called the major fade line. So there’s the major fade flush mask, major fade, hyper serum, and the major fade, active seal. And these are all meant to be used at night. And they’re meant to be used together because brightening or like getting rid of dark spots or acne marks, like it takes time and you kind of have to be very consistent doing it. And she also talks about how if you have extra of the cream on your hands after you’ve put it on your face, she’s like, take that shit right down to your Tatas.
Kulap Vilaysack 25:49
My type of person.
Jill Dunn 25:50
And is this a gel cream moisturizer. So I have oily skin and I don’t like to use really, really rich or heavy moisturizers at nighttime especially, I feel like so many night creams are way too heavy for me. So I appreciate that. This is a night cream that’s a gel cream. And it has vitamin C in there and a lot of brightening actives, and she came through on the packaging to because it’s in a tub that you push down on the top and it gives you the perfect amount so you don’t overdo it. And it’s all airtight. So the actives in there are actually going to do what they say that they’re going to do. So the vitamin C isn’t going to go off and the brightening complex isn’t going to go off and just love how it feels on my skin and I love the whole thing. So far I’ve been really impressed with it and I just don’t think she’s going to come to market with something that’s not going to work especially when she has so many people coming to her with this specific question about brightening or dealing with melasma or what have you. So yeah, it’s been it’s been a win for me so far, but I’ll be curious to hear what you have to say.
SuChin Pak 26:55
I just I love that she knows her. She knows consumers, she knows her audience and she’s real she’s like if you’re gonna pay this much money for it, then make sure that you get every little last bit so she’s thought of all these like small details that make you believe that the formulation and what’s in the in the packaging is also as well if not more thought out. So I bought I didn’t do the trio I went a little rogue and I just bought the last two steps because the I have so many exfoliants in my cabinet so I was like I think I could kind of get something going and then and then try the other two but my experience with dermatologists with skin influencers who have a lot of quote unquote skin in the game that their products generally I’m happy with because I think that they have to hold themselves to a standard that they no BS is going to be called the second that hits the shelf and people are not happy with it.
Kulap Vilaysack 28:18
I want to hear from Carlene about body suits from Alex New York because you are taking fashion cues from Donna Karen.
Carlene Higgins 28:26
Yes when it comes to fashion this year. I’m taking cues from Donna Karen now if you are around my age, then you’ll remember who Donna Karen is if you’re a younger listener, you may have no idea but you can always Google it or like throw it into Tik Tok maybe it’ll come up I don’t know. But anyway famous New York fashion designer and she’s iconic and became really well known for I don’t know if she invented the body suit or just like popularized it but she her whole thing was like seven items to build your wardrobe and it was like this it, was probably like you know the trouser the white shirt the you know the this, and the body suit was one of those things. And honestly I just, it’s, I find it’s all I really want to wear these days like if I’m going to an event or if I’m going to you know when you go out for drinks and you’re like what am I going to wear like it’s just the body suit and jeans and different shoes and I just find it tucks everything in you guys It’s like wearing hosiery you know how that just like tucks in your legs and sucks you in you’re like, Oh, I’m feeling so spelt like that but on top and like in the tummy area.
SuChin Pak 29:47
She looks like she’s Laguna Beach, a cast member. You know what I mean? Let’s throw back to that era.
Carlene Higgins 29:54
That’s too kind.
Kulap Vilaysack 29:58
Yeah, you look fantastic. Wait, that’s
SuChin Pak 30:00
Wait, that’s a body suit. And the second one you’re wearing a long sleeve yellow, almost like a cardigan. Is that a body suit?
Carlene Higgins 30:08
It’s actually a body suit.
SuChin Pak 30:10
That’s my kind body suit. Look how covered up you are and it looks amazing.
Carlene Higgins 30:17
Tucked in, it’s from Alex, New York. So I, I really like this brand in particular. And I again, you know, I bought on sale girl, it’s always like 70 or 80% off. I get them for like 50 bucks when they’re regularly 200. And, yeah, like we’re going to LA next week. And like, I’m bringing three body suits, you know, because I’m just like, if we’re going out the cute little restaurants you know, what am I going to wear body suit jeans, little kitten heels. Little goodie bag. I’m so ready. But yeah, and I find you can just like you can wear like a long skirt, and suddenly it’s cocktail like it’s just the best little wardrobe starter. I will say though, that Alex, New York is not very size inclusive. So I don’t love that. So even though I haven’t tried it, I really like what skins is doing. And they have a huge selection of body suits that go up to I think I was just looking at it. I think there’s like eight sizes instead of you know, three or four.
Kulap Vilaysack 31:23
SuChin, I put in the chat ones that I think you’ll enjoy.
SuChin Pak 31:28
I’m gonna ask you a question. I hope it’s not too personal, Carlene. What is the butt crotch feeling of these things? That’s the thing that keeps me from getting into..
Kulap Vilaysack 31:43
If any inventors are out there, basically essentially the bottom and then everything the same up top, then she would be down.
SuChin Pak 31:59
I would be body suiting it left and right. But is it a little bottom? That’s gonna go by sect or is it a generous bottom that will hold a mature woman down.
Carlene Higgins 32:12
You know what, I think I have two different kinds from them. And one of them is a thong and one of them is like a fullback but the material is. Is it […] guys I always say it wrong But it has no seams. So that’s what I like too is that even if you’re not wearing the thong one, you don’t have the granny panties on the tight tight jeans that I’m trying to rock. So, I like that you can do the fullback but I also do have the thong one. And it’s not the most comfortable but it’s worth it. I just feel so like put together when I wear it. It’s hard to explain but it’s just, it’s like a confidence builder is weird. It’s just a really is like wearing shapewear on the outside and you’re just so, you feel so like, so good.
SuChin Pak 33:05
I’m into it. I just got to look into the butt a little bit more and then I’m diving right in guys. How many times have you heard that?
Kulap Vilaysack 33:16
Thong is a non-starter for Su, but the full bottom sounds like a possibility.
SuChin Pak 33:21
And by the way, I may be launching my own shapewear line attached biker shorts. Listen, it may not be the most popular but there’s going to be an avid group of people out there that I have changed their life. And that’s what I’m here for.
Kulap Vilaysack 33:39
I mean, we should let you go. But I do need to I need to. I don’t want to let you go. And so I have to ask about these removed from cards because […] what is we’re done with clean girl aesthetic. You’re done.
Jill Dunn 33:53
Yeah. Okay, well, I have a lot it’s just annoyed me the whole phrasing of it since it came out and I don’t have a problem with the look. We all want to look like Hailey Bieber. Okay, like we know, she’s stunning. Like, I want to look like a glazed doughnut. Absolutely. But I have a problem with it being called a clean girl aesthetic because it’s like, what’s the opposite of that you’re a dirty girl. And I just also feel like it puts a ton of pressure on people to have perfect skin. I don’t need makeup and I’m just going out with like the perfect nude manicure and I can wear my hair back confidently off my face, which means you never break out. You know, I just think the whole notion of it is really like you have to almost look like a supermodel to be out there pulling it off. And it’s, I think, not that healthy in terms of like a trend or a look and then I read a whole article about basically like black women started the quote unquote clean girl aesthetic with like the clean hairlines laid down edges really glowy dewy skin, just like that’s not represented at all in this whole vibe that you see on TikTok.
Jill Dunn 34:00
And I agree, there’s a level of there’s a level of pressure. There’s a level of expectation that feels very unrealistic that feels like it’s in a world where filters don’t exist. You know, like it just it’s not we’re not in that world and so it’s nice to kind of level set on that.
Kulap Vilaysack 35:28
Carlene, you say no more remove from cart Skin Tint.
SuChin Pak 35:33
I’m with you Carlene, I am with you.
Carlene Higgins 35:36
I just don’t, I just don’t fucking get it, like skin tins can, they can go straight to hell, as far as I’m concerned. But you know, I am going to admit that maybe there’s something that I just don’t see. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned, being a beauty editor, or beauty podcast, or whatever it is over the past many, many years, is that, you know, we do wear blinders, right? It’s like I review products for my skin type and my skin tone and my hair and I can’t really, you know, talk about people who have different textures of hair and relate to that. So maybe there’s somebody out there that they are loving the skin tense, and they’re like, Yes, I couldn’t wait for them to come out with a thinner version of a tinted moisturizer. Like you know, something super watery.
SuChin Pak 36:29
Slide off my face.
Carlene Higgins 36:31
So oily and like glowy to the point that all the makeup that goes on over top looks terrible and just like slips away. But maybe somebody loves that, but I have a lot of skin redness and uneven skin tone. So it really does nothing for me. So when I have talked about them in the past, I’ve been like, if you have pretty much perfect skin, then you’re probably going to like the Skin Tint. But then I started asking myself if you have pretty much perfect skin, why do you need a Skin Tint? Like you really don’t actually and I think this is going back to what you guys were talking about before is like what you’re buying and what you’re buying into. And I’m kind of like I feel like this is a trend that people are buying into that actually serves no purpose but oh, you know talk to me like if you’re out there and you’re like I love skin tins this is what I really needed but I would just say like you could you could add oil to your foundation you could mist your you know miss the hell out of your sponge I just don’t know that we need this. I don’t know.
SuChin Pak 37:39
I think that it’s a little bit related to Jill’s remove from cart the clean girl thing I think they’re kind of they kind of came up together as the clean girl movement the skin tint, because yeah, to me skin tints. I’m glazing right over that. It’s feels like a jackass.
Kulap Vilaysack 37:56
I hate to be a contrary voice. I use the Kosis tinted face oil foundation. Yeah. And I do have fantastic skin. I mean, I guess I love to say yes. I hate to say it, it wouldn’t be good.
SuChin Pak 38:23
Definitely not. She’s a bougie gal but she does have perfect skin. And I do have to say the Skin Tint like the ones that like again, I don’t know how if it’s true or not the ones like Kosis they have some kind of skincare element to it.
Carlene Higgins 38:42
But again, I would say let your skincare do that. There’s so much good skincare out there. You know, I just don’t know why. I don’t know. I don’t get it guys.
Kulap Vilaysack 38:53
I have a great skin as I mentioned and then but I have freckles. Yeah, I have freckles and so I want to show those freckles because you know, and so I use a skin and it just kind of gives me a nice like it pumps the look up a little bit. I aesthetically like I have dry skin so that also helps right to, you know, but I hear what you’re saying.
SuChin Pak 39:26
I love it. I love the controversy. Love it.
Carlene Higgins 39:34
Everybody drop us your comments. You know, wherever you hear about this podcast, are you Team Skin Tint or are you down with Skin Tint? Let us know.
Kulap Vilaysack 39:45
No, I appreciate this was like yeah, maybe okay, but at the end of the day, I’m like, it makes me it looks really good. I’m so simple. I don’t understand. Landscape as you three do.
Carlene Higgins 40:00
But would you buy it again, would you buy it again, you would pay the dollars?
Kulap Vilaysack 40:04
I would pay the dollars and I brought it to our show prior as a game changer, because I preferred it over what I was using before. There you go. But, you know, it’s because I have such good skin.
Jill Dunn 40:18
Yes, I mean brought rocket out. I love that. And I mean, I know that products is a huge bestseller. So you’re not alone. There’s a ton of people who love that. So there’s a lot of perfect skin people out there just Thankfully, there’s something for them finally.
SuChin Pak 40:42
It’s like representation is so important. It feels good to be seen.
SuChin Pak 40:51
Really lay it out there.
Kulap Vilaysack 40:56

Given that more and more women enter the legal professions and the paid workforce, the hours of work have become more and more demanding. Therefore, reducing the number of working hours will enhance sharing of responsibilities while curbing the effects of unemployment. This will help in reducing stress to the unemployed population within Canada.
The Canadian legislators will be required to inform the officers heading different councils on the strategies that will not create confusion during the working hours nor cause severe feedback from the Canadians as a result of changing payments (Brockman 189).
Still, the legislation will remain stringent over the overtime working hours where most employees go without any payment. In this way, the industries will be forced to hire more workforces and harmonize the payments depending on the skills and the capacity of service. Importantly, reducing the working hours for the civil servant and causal laborers will welcome flexible working approaches such as teleworking, flextime and job sharing. Here, the legislation will ensure that the locals are protected against employer’s exploitation and internet setbacks (Krahn et al 164).
The insurance policy for the workers might concentrate on representing the workers for some risks while assuming others. This is because the industries could not feel obliged for compensations of triple the workforce in the normal schedule of working. In such circumstance, the legislation might push towards contracts in different jobs based on the job specifications. This strategy will go a long way in developing flexible workweeks while minimizing the unemployment rates.
Labour councils are normally active in their provincial or territorial federations of labour. They often serve as the mechanism through which information from the provincial or territorial federation is distributed to unions in their area. A labor council has a diverse range of activities. It is often involved in providing strike support for local unions, and it works toward broader social goals, such as available and affordable child care, accessible education, and public health care and social services. Labour councils are also involved in regional community campaigns and fundraising for charitable organizations. Labour councils that are affiliated with the Canadian Labour Congress also take on the task of hosting educational programs for unions and union members.
“Like a labour council, a provincial labour federation is an organization composed of unions” (Brockman 211). However, the federation comprises unions from an entire territory. Local unions without a regional, national, or international affiliation may join a provincial labour federation directly; local unions that are affiliated with parent unions are usually represented in the provincial labour federation by the parent union.
Provincial labour federation pressure and lobby provincial governments to promote their point of view, particularly if the government appears likely to change labour related legislation in a manner that does not favor the union interests. Provincial federations also coordinate the activities of their member unions to support the federation’s lobbying efforts. Still, they provide affiliated local unions and labour councils with a range of services, including communication, education, and research. “They support their affiliated union by acting as a source of information, a coordinator of joint action, and a provider of resources that may be beyond the reach of individual members” (Krahn et al 296).
Unions have certainly been weakened politically by the rise of neo-liberalism of Canada into liberalized trade arrangements, and the numerical decline of manufacturing. For instance, the Canadian Labour Movement refused to become involved in the negotiations of parallel accords to the NAFTA. However, these unions have kept up their numbers, in part because of high rates of unionization in the public sector, and in part because of the retention of the core elements of the labour relations framework created after the Second World War. Most important among these features is the ‘Rand’ formula, by which all members of a workforce are obliged to pay dues to a union that has secured the official right to represent them.
Globalization and Liberalization in Canada also led to union expansion into the public sector in the 1960s and 1970s, at a time when women were entering the workforce in large numbers and social movement activism on diversity was surging, especially feminist activism.
With the Canadian Union Movement fairing much better to globalization and liberalization, far reaching changes in the labor market are anticipated. These changes will be realized through conservation of an absolute political and social environments that are important socialeconomic players (Krahn et al 244). Obviously, the political arm of the Canadian labour movement will be a major asset, allowing it to better resist the pressures of neo-conservatism that have been building in response to the economic globalization.
Still, the decentralized natures of globalization make the Canadian labor movement highly vulnerable to the effects of globalization. Unions in Canada concern themselves mostly with seeking better working conditions and are active mainly at the level of the individual firm. Therefore, it means that free trade and broader choice of possible locations for production facilities will give employers greater bargaining powers when it comes to demanding concessions regarding working conditions and the organization of work.

Marine Scrubber Systems Market Insights, Trends and Growth Outlook 2028
According to the Lloyd’s List Scrubbers Survey, in less than a year the permitted levels of sulfur in marine fuels will fall in emission control areas to 0.1% when the latest emissions regulation begins on January 1st, 2015. In the shipping transportation industries, they brigh a lot of economical values with rising a number of fleets. Unfortunately, this development always encloses to the environmental pollution issue. According to the laws of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), ships are required to reduce the emission of SOx in the water areas in the world, these areas are known as emission control areas (ECA) or SOx emission control areas (SECA). The mandated guidelines of the international organizations are estimated to create lucrative opportunities for the scrubber manufacturing companies and scrubber installations in the new ships or retrofit installations. This has led to the emergence of the global marine scrubber systems market.

Global Marine Scrubber Systems Market: Key Trends
The wet scrubber segment led the scrubber system market in 2017, and is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. Wet scrubbers are effective air pollution control devices for removing particles as well as gases from industrial exhaust streams. Wet scrubbers are generally the most appropriate air pollution control device for collecting both particulates and gas in a single system.
While closed loop and hybrid systems are available for enclosed bodies of water with little water exchange or where discharges are restricted by local regulation, the ECGSA suggests open loop operators switch to low sulfur fuel for port stays where open loop operation is not possible. The cost impact is likely to be limited as over 90% of fuel consumption is during full away at sea, which is where the financial benefits of scrubber-related fuel savings really accrue.

Guest post: Why spending £53k on rent isn’t a waste of money.
First-Time-Buyers will end up paying a staggering £52,900 on rent before getting onto the property ladder.
In London, the situation looks even bleaker, with average rent increasing to £63,318 and over £90k when including the purchase of a property.
Is renting really a waste of money?
Anyone can waste money by making bad spending decisions and relying too much on credit. But on its own, renting is actually a smart and flexible financial choice! Sure, people who rent more space than they need or who live in a hot part of town and pay ridiculously high rent are wasting their money.
Is it worth renting UK?
Owning a home is cheaper than renting in every part of the UK, but first-time buyers need an average of £51,000 for a deposit to get on the property ladder, new research suggests. It compared monthly mortgage payments with expected rents and found big savings for homeowners across the country.
Is it really better to own than rent?
Fast-rising home prices and higher mortgage rates have made it cheaper to rent a home than buy and own one. Rents are up just 4 percent. Renting and reinvesting the savings from renting, on average, will outperform owning and building home equity, in terms of wealth creation.
Is London worth renting?
If you’re renting in London, you’ll probably be better off, in the short term. You won’t need to worry about falling property prices, and you may find it easier to budget, as rents tend to change less frequently than mortgage rates. Finding a home to rent is quicker than house hunting for somewhere to buy.
Is renting forever a good idea?
Even better, you can live in a rental either forever or maybe one day you’ll change your mind and nothing will prevent you from buying your own residence. The arguments against renting forever is that it is more expensive than owning. The additional expense of renting may be worth it to you.
Is renting dead money?
Renting is surrounded by the stigma of being ‘dead money’, purely because the renter doesn’t own the deeds to the property. Yes, your landlord does take a lot of money from you each month. And yes, that money will go to paying their mortgage and leave them some profit on top.
Is it better to buy or rent UK?
If you will only live in an area for a short period of time or you expect your circumstances to change, renting is usually cheaper and more flexible when you need to move house. However, if you intend to live in an area or property for a long time, buying a house can work out cheaper.
When should you not buy a house?
Why You Shouldn’t Buy a House
- You Have No Down Payment.
- You Have Poor Credit.
- You Have a High Debt Ratio.
- You Have Little or No Job Security.
- Renting Is 50% Cheaper.
- You Tend to Move Every Year.
- You’re in an Unstable Relationship.
- You’re in a Declining Real Estate Market.
Why is it better to buy than rent?
1. It’s cheaper than renting. Although buying a house is more expensive at the outset, it can actually be cheaper than renting in the long term if you play your cards right. They attribute the drastic difference in costs to the rising costs of rent and the low fixed-rate mortgage rate, which currently sits at 4.3%.
Should I sell and rent instead?
Selling and Renting Means You’ll No Longer Own an Appreciating Asset. When you’re paying off a mortgage, you’re investing the bulk of your monthly housing costs into an asset that you own. When you rent, all of that money goes into someone else’s pocket. However, sometimes renting is the most cost effective way to go.
What are the disadvantages of renting?
Disadvantages of renting a house
- Signing a contract. Many landlords want you to sign a year lease agreement.
- Conditions. Landlords try to attract tenants by doing some renovations, but commonly they are cheap.
- Rent fee might go up annually.
- Moving expense.
- Bad landlord.
Why rent when you can buy?
Renting allows you to avoid certain costs, such as making repairs and upgrades, property taxes and homeowner’s insurance, but depending on where you live, owning a home may be the more affordable option.


If you’re new to Qlik Sense, start with this Discussion Board and get up-to-speed quickly.
I try to upgrade to the Nov 18 version of Qlik Sense. Currently, I have synchronized persistence, and I follow the instructions to upgrade and to convert to a shared persistence.
The problem is this: I get Postgres wrong password error. That happens even though the wizard asks me to define a password, and I input the original Postgres password.
Already tried this:
Logs and screenshots are attached.
I had previously sent a too-rushed reply, please ignore that.
Have you tried the steps suggested here?
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your response.
I will try the suggestion in the link you provided, but I have another question:
Does the upgrade installation needs to be done while the services are running? The link is not so clear about it.
I have followed the steps from the link and uninstalled my current Qlik version.
Now, when trying to re-install that version again i receive a message stating:
"The port 80 required to run the qlik sense services is in use by another processs"
Our server provider checked and the Qlik is the only program using port 80.
I've seen a couple of post suggesting to change the port from the QMC, is there a way to change the connection port for Qlik while it is uninstalled?
The services should be stopped before performing the upgrade.
Have you tried rebooting the server before restarting the insallation? There might be some hanging process locking the port.
Yes, I rebooted the server and stopped the Qlik web connectors service (The only one remaining after uninstalling).
Is there a way to make Qliksense use another port?
That is strange.
Can you please run "netstat -abno > c:\ports.txt" from an administrative command prompt and attach the result?
We managed to find the process that was using port 80, but experiencing a different error now.
After successfully re-installing, we are on phase 7 and trying to activate the 'Qlik sense repository database' service, but it does not start. Already tried re-booting and activating all other services.
When I undo the sense folder re-naming and use the sense-reinstall folder, it works.
Given error is :
The Qlik sense repository database service on local computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs.
What does the Repository / Trace /System log file say, right after the issue happen?
