Simply pull down on the clasp so it moves closer to the back of the bra and then pull up the extra strap that will hang loose to straighten out the straps. Pull down both clasps to an equal length.  If they're too tight, then you'll feel constricted near the straps and may even feel them digging into the skin of your shoulders. The clasps are the plastic things on the back of the bra—each strap will have one. Pull up the clasp from the bottom, moving it up, toward the front of your bra. You'll need to pull down on the straps while moving up the clasps. If the straps are too loose, they can fall down off your shoulders all the way to your elbows. Sometimes the bra doesn’t feel comfortable because the hooks are too loose or tight. To make it tighter, hook the bra on the eyes which are further in. To make it looser, adjust the hooks to the farthest out eyes.  If you can comfortably wear a new bra on the tightest hooks, consider going down a band size. You should wear new bras on the loosest hooks except when pregnant. Once you've put on the bra and adjusted the straps,  gently pull at the straps and the sides and back of the bra to make sure that it fits comfortably. After this, you can begin to make sure that your breasts fill the cups, which is the trickiest part of putting on a bra. Check the straps and band of the bra to make sure that nothing is twisted.   The cup size may be too large if your breasts don’t come close to filling the cup. The cup size may be too small if your breasts overfill the cup.

Use a gentle eye makeup remover to wipe away any mascara or eyeliner. This makes it easier for you to see where your real lashes end and the extensions begin. Use your normal makeup remover to clean your eyes. Boil water on the stove or in the microwave. Then, carefully pour the water into a heat-safe bowl. Set the bowl on a table or countertop where you can bend down over it. If you like, you can add some essential oils to the bowl to help you relax. For instance, you might add 2-3 drops of lavender, tea tree, peppermint, or eucalyptus essential oil to the water. Set your timer for 15 minutes, then drape the towel over your head and lean forward. Be careful not to get too close to the water, as it could scald your face. Position the towel so that it encircles the bowl and traps in the steam. Keep your head over the steaming bowl for 15 minutes. The steam will loosen the glue on your extensions so it comes off more easily. Pour olive oil or coconut oil onto a cotton swab. Make sure that it's really saturated, as dry cotton may scratch or irritate the skin around your eyes.  If you're using coconut oil, you may need to microwave the oil for a few seconds to get it into a liquid state. You may need to use multiple cotton swabs to get off all of the lashes, so have extras on hand. Start at the inner corner of your eye and pull the cotton swab across your lashes. Make several passes to coat the extensions in the oil. Once the oil coats your lashes, the extensions should start to come off. Keep wiping until all of the eyelash extensions are removed.  If your skin starts to feel irritated, stop wiping immediately. Wash your face, then see a professional to get the remaining extensions removed. If necessary, apply more oil to your cotton swab or get a new swab. Don't simply pull off the extensions, as this can damage your natural lashes. If the extensions don't wipe away easily, comb the oil through them with a spoolie, then let it sit for a minute. Once it's had a chance to soak in, run the spoolie through your lashes again to comb out the extensions. After you've removed all of your extensions, apply a pea-size amount of mild facial cleanser to your skin. Work the cleanser over your face to remove any excess oil from your skin. Rinse your face with cool water, then pat it dry with a clean towel. It's okay to use your normal facial cleanser to clean away the oil.

All oatmeal is not created equal. There are varieties of different cuts of oats, but for cookies you want to use rolled oats. A rolled oat is an oat that has been flattened into a flake, and then lightly steamed and toasted. It will retain its texture and shape through the cooking process. Do not add instant cooking rolled oats; they will just turn to mush. Any other form of oat will be hard and very difficult to chew. Adding too many rolled oats to the recipe will result in a cookie that is dense and dry. Adding too few to the recipe and you'll barely know they are there. The key to adding oatmeal to the recipe is balance. Every recipe is different; if your recipe calls for nuts, then you can simply exchange the measurement of nuts for oatmeal. The same can be done for dried fruit or any other addition. Every cookie recipe is different; therefore it is important to slowly integrate the oats so as to not overwhelm the recipe. At the same time that you add the chocolate chips to the recipe, add 1/4 cup (2 oz.) of rolled oats. Thoroughly combine and look at the dough. If the oats are hard to find and there seems to be very few of them distributed throughout the dough, add 1 additional quarter cup (2 oz.) and remix. Unless your cookie dough recipe makes more than 3 dozen cookies, 1/2 cup (4 oz.) of oatmeal should be plenty. Add more oats if the batch of cookies is doubled or produces a higher yield. Continue to portion out the dough and cook the cookies as your recipe directs. Check the cookies 3 to 5 minutes prior to the estimated cook time as the rolled oats may expedite the cooking process.
