    Secret Weapons

    It's not much better with A/C. You go from Hot & Humid to Cool & Damp:( My secret weapons are my nails. They grow like the dickens! I use Sally Hansen's Diamond Hard treatment to keep them from breaking. I usually keep them bare, as I type so much at work, polish just chips right off...

    Oil Cleansing Method

    It's amazing how much my skin has changed in 2 weeks. I thought I was getting great results with the cold cream, but there has been a definite improvement in the size/clarity of my pores from the grapeseed oil. *happy dance*

    Oil Cleansing Method

    After seeing mention of this in the Cold Cream thread, I was curious to see who else has had luck with this method? I've been doing it for about 2 weeks now and have had some really good results. Since I'm prone to having somewhat "cranky" combo skin, I skipped the EVOO and tried a mix of...

    Skin Care tips/remedies

    Amen Sister! With warm weather upon us, I had to flip from ponds to cetaphil and I'm LOVING IT. I was shocked that it could clean so well (for looking like wallpaper paste).

    Thrift Stores or Flea Markets

    Try the thrift shops up on Baseline in berdoo. I always had good luck at Lighthouse for the Blind and the Easter Seals one down the street from there. Riverside has some good ones tucked around downtown as well. Check the phone book.

    Help, Ladies! A Restoration Crisis!!

    Those are my exact sentiments. Though I know you must be head over heels in love with the dress, you would be able to wear it with more confidence if you didn't have to worry about it falling apart on you. Plus you could have it made to your exact measurements and in any color you wish. I...

    Hair Conditioners?

    I'm well into a 2 year addiction to Redken's AllSoft products. I stated earlier that I had switched to Dove for a bit, but it made my head itch. The AllSoft conditioner and Heavy Cream Super Treatment are the best products I've ever used. I have baby fine, stick straight hair that was completely...

    Skin Moisturizers

    As a recent SoCal transplant, I really do miss a good Indoor Swapmeet!!! You can get all sorts of hair products for next to nothing; I was definitely getting spoiled shopping there.

    Skin Moisturizers

    This might seem like too simple of an answer, but have you tried changing your shampoo? I generally use Redken's Allsoft everyday, and when I switched to Dove for a few days, my head itched like nobody's business!!! I thought I was gonna lose my mind. I ended up giving myself scabs from...

    Skin Moisturizers

    I've noticed that with certain lotions, my hands will feel great for a while, then it seems like they become even drier than they were before. All of the scented body lotions (not the creams, though) from Bath & Body Works seem to do this to me. For a good basic everyday type of moisturizer...

    Do you have a set beauty routine?

    You know, I was just having this exact thought the other day! I was thinking about buying an "eye cream" since I have been using my Olay Sensitive around the eye area, but I got to thinking...what's so special about eye cream??? Thanks for passing this along.

    Do you have a set beauty routine?

    CanadaDoll, I snagged this off of their website: Shipping & Returns Shipping Info ... Shipping is done through UPS for domestic US and some of eastern Canada. Everywhere else is the United States Post Office That sounds pretty hopeful!

    Do you have a set beauty routine?

    You're very welcome! They have a great sampler pack of 2 oz bottles that includes some other scents: Peach, Lemon, Lavendar, Rose, and other more traditional formulas. It's a nice cheap way to try them out, and I especially like having the small bottles to toss in my purse or desk drawer. I keep...

    PS I get my Thayers at Wild Oats market, but you can also order it online here: http://www.thayers.com/store/

    Do you have a set beauty routine?

    Try Thayer's Rose Witch Hazel. It has a nice rosey scent and no alcohol to dry out or irritate your face. The cold cream does take some getting used to. Especially if you've grown accustomed to using acne washes and having "squeaky" clean skin. Once I stopped using them and started using the...

    Max Factor Pan-Cake Foundation

    Thanks for the tips. I learned very quickly about the streaky-ness this morning LOL! I won't be getting my sponge that wet next time. Just out of curiousity, how does the Pan-Stick compare? Is it oily? Thank you! It's Noel Toy :D

    Max Factor Pan-Cake Foundation

    Hi ladies! Thanks to some of you, I'm a devoted cold cream/witch hazel lover! Tonight while shopping, I came across a display of MF's Pan-cake foundation. Again, trusting the judgement of the ladies around here, I picked up the lightest shade they had and tossed it in my cart. Now that I'm...

    Favourite Scents

    Demeter has a delicious lilac. Their lily of the valley is quite pretty too! http://demeterfragrance.com/product.aspx?t=f&id=898 As for staying power, these single note scents aren't the greatest. Although for the price, a few "touch ups" throughout the day won't break the wallet.
