Playing In Makeup By Yolondo. Beware; Must Read! (coverage, technique, cost, benefits) This review is a month old because I never received a link to leave a review on the official website. I’ll start with saying it definitely is full coverage. It feels like water and looks like skin. I bought the dark and medium palette and felt more confident in buying a full compact that was the right shade for me. But not only is it still hard …

Global sellers, how do you calculate your shipping cost? I’m currently shipping my goods domestically. Easy, just one simple flat shipping rate to deal with. No biggie! But my business is growing and there’s a lot of opportunities inside and outside of the European Union. That means I would have to deal with multiple flat shipping rates (per weight/size class) that can be different per country (even w…

How long to dollar cost average lump sum I recently received a $50k bonus. My normal bonus is around $5k and I expect it will return to around that number moving forward. I usually just put it directly into the market however with this much larger sum I imagine it makes sense to dollar cost average. My question is how do I break that down? I was thinking $5k a month for 10 months but i…

Travel Insurance “Total Trip Cost” I booked a trip to Aruba on points. The cancellation policy is “14 Days before arrival or forfeit deposit/1 Night deposit required” When getting travel insurance I basically only need to put in the cost of one night stay at the hotel correct?

Does it include all your expected spend at hotels you haven’t yet paid fo…
