All this talk about your DHs snoring makes me laugh. My guy doesn't snore, thank God!
But, we have an English Bulldog and a Boston Terrier, those pug noses are the culprits to all the snoring that goes on in my house. The Bulldog sleeps downstairs on the couch and I can hear her upstairs. The Boston Terrier sleeps in bed with us...and keeps me up at night. Sometimes I'm just amazed by the sounds that come out of such small bodies lol

Scary article [yahoo.com] about Heavy Metals found in Cosmetics... some highlights include:
"Benefit Benetint lip gloss contained the highest level of lead at 110 parts per millions (ppm), which is more than 10 times higher than the limit set by the Health Canada Draft Guidance on Heavy Metal Impurities in Cosmetics"
Other products found to have the highest levels of impurities were:
Clinique Stay True Makeup foundation (Stay Ivory) — arsenic, cadmium, beryllium, lead, nickel, thallium
Sephora Sculpting Powder Trio eye shadow (Brown and Pink) — beryllium, lead, nickel, thallium
MAC Sheerton Shimmer Blush (Springsheen) — beryllium, lead, nickel, thallium
L'Oreal Bare Naturale mascara (Black/Brown) — arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, lead, nickel, thallium
Cover Girl Perfect Point Plus eyeliner (Black Onyx) — beryllium, cadmium, lead, nickel
Almay Intense i-color Trio eye color (Trio for Blues, Brown and Dark Grey) — beryllium, cadmium, lead, nickel, selenium
Benefit Benetint Pocket Pal (Red Tint and Clear Gloss) — arsenic, beryllium, cadmium, lead, nickel, selenium, thallium
... this sucks. I spend more money on higher-end beauty/skincare products because I want them to be better for me than the cheap stuff, but it's just as bad or worse! What I don't understand is that all of these metals end up in the product as a result of manufacturing processes... what in the world are they using for machinery??
thanks for sharing this too !

Pls see what I wrote above to azn~ I think they need a little time for the problem to become so prevalent that they are ready for your to request a different form of refund. I would say my "friend" or "sister" had the experience we described here, that you're worried and just in case- you want it changed.
I guess I should look for some ceramic ones, but it seems like when I was looking, it's so hard to find for my size. I shall keep looking
Liggy got me one and I've been dying to use it, but haven't had the chance to. I know that Porda uses one and I was amazed when she pulled it out.
Just wondering if you got your bra perks? I'm like dying waiting for mine!! Especially with the free bra for me!
hehe hope you receive it soon!

this tunic [victoriassecret.com] I highly recommend to stay away from it. Fabric, style, stitching- nothing about it is flattering. I ordered it with 30% off code and its going to be returned soon.
@ Anni, what style of pencil jean you recommended? I know you posted review few days ago but i cant find it
VS has not sent me any bra perk card at all last time

the one i just got that i decided to keep was the pencil twill [victoriassecret.com]. i also have the pencil corduroy [victoriassecret.com] and those are comfy too. i got all of those in a 2 - the corduroy is the most loose-fitting of the 3 styles. the waist/bum fits me really well!
stay away from the siren legging [victoriassecret.com]. that was the super tight one that has no stretch! but

i have the vs pencil jean [victoriassecret.com] - it was their only pencil jean when i got it, but now it looks like they have skinnier ones. i like it bc it's not as tight as a jegging so i can get the jeans over my giant calves. i'm not sure if it's still the same as when i got mine.
