I got one of these as a gift when I was ~10 years old. 20 years later with daily use, the plastic coating was starting to crack a little so I got another. I absolutely love this thing. It's just flexible enough to keep keys from stabbing you when they don't sit quite right. https://www.acehardware.com/departments/hardware/keys-and-accessories/key-accessories/5936737

Find one that is old and "inefficient". We moved and ended up with a 90's era kitchen aid and it is so much better than our new fancy one. The new one from the old house is living in the garage, I really should sell it.

I mean, yes and no. The make-up based subreddits are ultra germaphobic in general and not really worried about the waste or longevity. Plus, if you are a member of those subs, chances are you go through stuff a lot faster than OP.

I put mine on a friendship bracelet, it’s very durable and the bracelet has sentimental value to me so it’s nice that I can use it and see it frequently. You can just untie it to add or subtract keys.

I don't. I put a keypad deadbolt on my house and have a hidden key as a backup. In 10 years it's never been needed, I just swap rechargeable batteries every few years. The only key I have is my car fob. And that's only until the phone-as-a-key works better on my car.

Yep, and that's why I think a keychain solution is the best for pocket. The trick is experimenting and finding one that articulates and sort of synergizes just right with your particular set of keys.

Guess you could put that all on a clip to a belt? There really isn't much you can do to avoid carrying the bulk.

My wife has a keywallet. It's a nice thing but bulky, like carrying another wallet. Excellent for a bag, but not very pocketable. And, like the stiff edc holders, you still end up with a car key dangling somewhere.

I don’t know about any specific brands but rubber hunting boots are usually what I wear if snakes are a big concern. Not very breathable though.

These are great as long as the keys are similar sizes. They can really free up space in your pocket.

Do you have to carry 6 keys? I've tried a bunch of different carabiners and s-biners of various sizes. Currently using one of these, which is working out really well.

Coach Belt Bag. You can carry everything and keep your hands free in style.

Unfortunately, most liquid makeup has a limited shelf life for hygienic reasons. Each time you dip an applicator back into the tube (as with most concealers), you’re turning it into a petri dish. I recommend a powder and a blush/sponge that you would need to clean after each use for truly long-term use. Alternatively, any liquid product that comes in squeeze/pump containers (more airtight=longer lasting, and they don’t have problems with bacteria) would also potentially work. Do NOT take the advice of people who keep makeup for years lol.

In my satchel when it's warm, in my coat when it's cold. Context: I'm a guy, and I started carrying a satchel for this very reason. I now also always have a pocketknife, some napkins and other useful things in there.

Second this one. It was the third one for me and it's the charm. Cleans the shit out of everything no matter how full, dries the plastic, and can hold 3 meals worth of dishes if you stack it right. Also has a fine mesh over the filter that will keep your glass out and wipes clean. Can't go wrong here.

I recently went through the same thing. Wanted to buy something better than the $400 in stock units at the box store. Did some research and ended up buying a Bosch 100 series. It fit my price range and I have been very happy with it and how quiet it is. I also enjoy that it does not have a heating element to dry the dishes, so now I can put plastics anywhere without worrying about damage to plastic storage containers.
