did the facial- left it on for 20 mins.

thoroughly disappointed. btw, that's not skin sloughing off, just deeply congealed miracle whip. ugh. i felt like a pornstar.

*shrug* just didn't notice any improvement. ah well. it was only $2.49. :D
 
randy i don't really notice too much of a glorious face a few days later, i mean i am sitting here like an idiot now, rubbing my freshly scrubbed face, and it indeed feels softer than usual....i think...but couldn't be sure. but i get the same thing with my expensive facials....nice for a day or so then back to the same ol skin.

poops i am surprised you didn't notice any difference, i was pretty impressed with the after effects.

though with all the additives to miracle whip, i wouldn't keep this as a regiment, just a fun try for a few bored girly hours to yourself.

i think i like it because no one in my family would come near me, and it was kinda nice when you are used to your kids opening up the door to your bathroom when you are going potty. they were running away, it was lovely.

It doesn't clog your pores? I use it for my body in massages but use jojoba for my face

haha no it doesnt..I use the VCO cream that dries into a powder finish (manufactured for babies.) Love it!
 
^Babyspa by Splash :) You can find it in most department stores or Mercury! I use the blue one :)

straight hair!

okay, i have finally learned how to truly straighten my hair. i love being able to change it.

i was using redken's "fabricate" (in addition to other crap)- i spray it on a dry section about to be ironed.

well, my bff/stylist and i headed to a professional retail place and she turned me on to redken's "spray starch". i am luke-warm on this stuff, while every other chick is busting a nut about it. granted, i have only used it once, but still. i'm going to keep trying it.

so, what do you use?
 
i usually use lots of leave in conditioner, blow dry, then spray a small amount of Nexxus' heat guard spray on my hands, rub that through my hair (cuz it's super oily if you use too much) then spray all of my hair really good with Aquage Shine Spray (it's like a really fine finishing spray almost). Then I clip it all up on top of my head, and work my way up, layer by layer. This method seems to work really well. Then when I'm done straightening, I run pomade all through it, to keep it from frizzing out.
 
on an opposite note, i have had to straighten my hair for my entire lifetime...bad ugly curls. i accidentally discovered the best curl product ever. the compliments abound and are nauseatingly persuasive. nothing has worked better.

and i have used multiple aveda, paul mitchell...many salon suggested products, but this works best...just put on and air dry for lovely curls.

shine shock, it is under the brunette collection, but it is a clear gloss so will work for everyone.
 
i am jsut the opposite, very thick, and lots of natural curl, so i can straighten and big curl brush it out to an incredible "stripper hair" mane. i aspire to a flat straight do without my favorite salon artiste doing it. i spent 150 on the damned paul mitchell straightener, and still can't do what they do.

they sell their soul to satan for that talent, i do believe.
 
Hmmm....loving my Burts Bees Carrot Day Creme. Even if I'm extremely oily (usually) we've been having a spate of cold weather (OMG! in the tropics!) and my skin has been quite dry. This creme works great and smells sooo yummy.

^Depends on what you're looking for. I usually need to bring a full day's worth of books, standard purse stuff, whatever else so I have this made by Lululemon (yuppie yoga store):

I'm pretty sure you can find it on Ebay for less than the store sells it for. It has a detachable fanny pack (lol) and a small zipcase for makeup, etc. that clasps inside. I wear it without the fanny pack. It's nothing fancy but VERY practical. The annoyance is that it is held together in parts with very strong magnets that demagnetize my transit cards!

I have an unhealthy obsession with bags - should do an inventory and take a pic. My favorite is an oversized lime green Kate Spade copy that I have bought clothes to match purposely. :D

Thinking of dyeing my hair redder today. Can't decide whether to do it myself or go to an advanced haircolor student -- my last experience with hair modeling left something to be desired. :(

i LOVE this stuff, Pink Sugar perfume...

just got into the office, my coworker walked by and said, "is someone eating something sweet for breakfast? what is that? it smells soooo good!" it's sweet, but not sickeningly so like some sugary scents can be. anyone else wear this stuff?
 
really? i hate it.

i hate smelling sweet. my current favorite perfume is juicy couture.
