Those clips don’t don’t stop all snoring but it did stop a substantial amount of snore back towards the throat and palette. I think it’s part of a trigger.
I don’t like the looks of a bat, it doesn’t express me fully. Refinement. But if you need crude resource for foundation to hone traits help yourself.
No Michele. Not me. This is mean. Don’t pin it in me or justify it. I’m only listing it here because I heard the word ‘conceal’. I thought it might have been make up concealer applied to the abuse victims but it has to do with report submission and falsification.
Beauty doesn’t come easy, at least not the superficial kind although I would have had difficulty seeing through any of these women.
Do you use a lot of makeup?
Would you have to go grey or bald to oppose them? Respond in if it sells it’s hair topic
See, Mark, this, to me, is a really dumb question so I have to ask, what does hair have to do with opposing them, unless it’s some kind of reference to time and even that reads as if you’re going way out there in order to make a point.
Even dumber is your request for me to reply in a threat that you didn’t post in.
The Bible mentions cosmetics sparingly, usually with a negative or cautionary tone:
2 Kings 9:30 – Jezebel “painted her eyes and adorned her head” before her death. Often cited as an example of vanity or manipulation.
Jeremiah 4:30 – Condemns Judah’s use of adornment and makeup: “Though you dress in scarlet… enlarge your eyes with paint, in vain you beautify yourself.”
Ezekiel 23:40 – Describes women adorning themselves with eye paint and jewelry in a metaphor for spiritual adultery.
1 Peter 3:3-4 – Advises women to focus on inner beauty rather than outward adornment: “not with braided hair and gold jewelry… but with the hidden person of the heart.”
Isaiah 3:16-24 – Condemns the vanity of the “daughters of Zion,” listing their adornments before predicting judgment.
Generally, cosmetics are not outright banned, but often associated with pride, seduction, or spiritual unfaithfulness.
Before Esther went to the king, she underwent a 12-month beauty treatment, including six months with oil of myrrh and six months with perfumes and cosmetics, as part of the prescribed purification process for the women in the harem.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
The 12-Month Process: Each young woman in the king’s harem had to complete a 12-month purification and beautification process before being presented to King Xerxes.
First Six Months: The first six months were dedicated to the use of “oil of myrrh”.
Second Six Months: The remaining six months involved “perfumes and preparations for beautifying women”.
Esther’s Obedience: When Esther’s turn came, she followed the prescribed process and asked for nothing beyond what Hegai, the king’s eunuch in charge of the harem, suggested.
Outcome: Esther’s beauty and grace, combined with her adherence to the prescribed process, led her to win the favor of the king and become queen.
Biblical Context: This is described in the Book of Esther, specifically in Esther 2:12-17.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
The 12-Month Process:
Esther, along with other young women chosen for the king, was required to complete a 12-month beauty preparation before being presented to King Xerxes.
Myrrh Oil:
For the first six months, the women were treated with oil of myrrh, a fragrant and aromatic substance.
Perfumes and Cosmetics:
The remaining six months were dedicated to perfumes and other cosmetics, further enhancing the women’s beauty and preparation for the king.
Purpose of the Preparation:
This extensive beauty treatment was a prescribed ritual within the harem, ensuring that each woman was presented in the best possible light to the king.
Esther’s Choice:
After the 12 months, Esther, like the other women, had the opportunity to choose her attire and jewelry from the harem before being taken to the king’s palace.
Michele, I’m not condemning you at all. Cosmetics aren’t even banned in the Bible, although they are mentioned in a negative light. Isa uses cosmetics occasionally. I was just interested when Greg said they were mentioned as I wasn’t aware of that, so I looked it up.
