Women Are Talking About Their Amputations With #MyPhantomPain

“Phantom pain doesn’t have one narrative.”

This is model and blogger Cax Mee. After being diagnosed with bone and lung cancer at 14, Mee beat the odds with experimental drugs and a leg amputation.

This is model and blogger Cax Mee. After being diagnosed with bone and lung cancer at 14, Mee beat the odds with experimental drugs and a leg amputation.

Since then, she's traveled to five continents, amassed nearly 80,000 Instagram followers, and appeared on BuzzFeed and Refinery29, among others.

@mamacaxx / Via instagram.com

But Mee still gets phantom pain — pain in limbs no longer existing after being amputated — and was recently inspired to learn about others' experiences with it, too. That's why she created #MyPhantomPain.

"I wanted other amputees to see that we all experience phantom pain/sensation in different ways, and use different methods to alleviate the pain."

Responses came from Instagrammers including @amputeen, whose "phantom" experiences are sometimes painful, but not always...

"When I first experienced a phantom sensation, it wasn’t necessarily pain," she told Mee, but noted she's since experienced everything from intense itching sensations to excruciating burning. She said she treats the sensations with baths, massages to the "red balloon" she feels around her amputated foot, and cannabis.

This Anti-Razor Bump Razor That Actually Works Just Got A Whole Lot Better

Yes please to anything that makes a smooth bikini line easier!

Recently, I wrote a review of this men's razor set called Bevel. It's a fancy razor that comes with grooming products, and it claims to prevent razor bumps and irritation.

Even though it's for men's facial hair, I tried it on my bikini line to see if it worked and could be a good investment for women who prefer shaving over waxing.

I Tested Popular Monolid Makeup Hacks And Here's What Worked

Give your monolids some lovin’.

Hi, I'm Lauren and I have monolids! For a very long time, I HATED my eyes.

Hi, I'm Lauren and I have monolids! For a very long time, I HATED my eyes.

Going through puberty with monolids was no lie, a fucking struggle. Inapplicable Youtube beauty tutorials combined with my total juvenile makeup techniques equaled a hot mess that I had no idea how to fix. I thought I could just solve the problem by forcing double eyelids with tape or glue, but that didn’t work out for me. I gave that up and over time just grew to appreciate my eye shape, because Y-E-S, they’re great the way they are!

Lauren Han / BuzzFeed

The hack: Save eyeliner by lining just the area that will actually show up on your open eyes.

The hack: Save eyeliner by lining just the area that will actually show up on your open eyes.

Lauren Han / BuzzFeed

This hack is GENIUS. I mean, yeah, you can see it when I close my eyes but does anyone really take that long to blink? And is it really any different from seeing a ton of black eyeliner? No and no. So floating eyeliner is a total win. Check out the tutorial here.

Product used: Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner, $22.

Rating: 5/5

We Got Eyelash Lifts And The Result Was Kind Of Crazy, TBH

Lash out.

You've probably heard of eyelash extensions which are pretty popular because ... well, who doesn't want longer eyelashes? But eyelash extensions can sometimes be dangerous and have some pretty gnarly side effects if not performed correctly and taken care of! Not to mention that they can cost upwards of $200.

So when we heard about Lash Lifts, a treatment for natural lashes that can add curl and definition for 8-10 weeks, we wanted to try it out.

It's a similar process to eyelash extensions, but it's performed with shaped shields and thick cream solutions so it's a newer, safer way to perform the service, according to Courtney Buhler, CEO, Founder and Lead Artist of Sugarlash PRO. And yeah, it cheaper, but it still ain't CHEAP. They cost between $75-$125 for a treatment, but hey, it's still a lil' cheaper.

@sugarlashpro / Via instagram.com

The process is pretty simple, and the whole thing takes about an hour.

The process is pretty simple, and the whole thing takes about an hour.

The process goes as follows:
1. You clean your lashes. I MEAN REALLY CLEAN, you can't have anything on them!
2. A silicone shield is applied to your eyelid and then the technician applies the same adhesive onto the top of the shield and brushes the natural lashes up onto the shield to give the shape.
3. Then you get some lifting cream on your lashes for 8-12 minutes! This is the part where you NAPPPP!
4. Then you get a setting lotion for about five minutes, and some nourishing oil, and wa-la, you have gorgeous lashes that look real AF.

Macey J. Foronda for BuzzFeed

Going into this, none of us had ever received eyelash extensions before, so we were going into it blindly hoping to come out of it not blind!

**It's worth noting that we tried to have our co-worker, Sheridan, who has had many extensions get this procedure as well to compare, but her eyelashes were too curly for the lift to work as we found out right before!

Get them from Modcloth for $19.99.

Promising review: "These are the best leggings I've ever put on. They're so comfortable and flattering that I'm going to have to keep myself from wearing them every day! They are the perfect weight — light enough for a warm fall day, but substantial enough to make one feel secure and comfortable (i.e., no fabric getting wedged in crevices, and so opaque they passed the White Panty Test). I'm glad I got the high-waist, too. I think the regular waist would have been a bit too low for my comfort. They are a little long on me, but I'd rather have that than the alternative. I definitely plan on buying more of these!" —Aemilyus
