folica has a new rebate up! It's with $50, though. The last couple times, they've reduced it to $25 purchase eventually.

Also, does anyone get limited coupons anymore? I haven't gotten any in months, and I'm just curious if they're still sending them out at all...

I'm sorry the LS deal didn't work for anyone. Frown Is it normal for them to have area specific certificates for national companies? I thought the targeted deals were only for local businesses.
No worries about it not working. Thanks for thinking of us when you saw a good deal. On the bright side...money saved! Cool

The light pink straps are very worn looking. The black straps have rubbed. :wave : bye-bye

I do not recommend the Gorgeous Bras that add two cup sizes. I do not need that. It is too much. I recommend the original push-up, and the demi is not bad either. I am glad that VS clearly identifies which is which.
In that case, it sounds like it's time for them to retire.

I'll keep the Gorgeous bra in mind for SRC possibilities.

Thanks, but I must not buy another bra right now. Nono

Quote from ayaspiralout :
I'm glad they sent out the pins yesterday then :crazy :
That's what I was thinking. We finally get a pin code, then find out it was useless.

$15 sale @ dermstore
Thanks. I was unhappy with myself for not ordering more of the Kronos conditioning spray, but wouldn't order it full price. The price at Dermstore is $3 more than what it was before, but it's still a lot cheaper than retail.

How was your trip?

The Kronos Styling Mousse http://www.dermstore.com/product_..._19563.htm in the Dermstore sale is good for using on your hair, before rolling.

Speaking of rolling hair, I read an article the other day that was discussing a survey given to men. They said the thing that attracts them to a woman first is pretty hair. A large majority said they would choose a woman who was overweight (not obese) over a woman with unattractive hair. There was a VS reference, which is why I read it. The article said, if you're going on a date & don't have money to go to the salon & Victoria's Secret, go to the salon. laugh out loud It doesn't matter how sexy your lingerie is, if they don't find you attractive in the first place. I'm paraphrasing, but that's basically what it said. I immediately thought about you girls & our hair discussions, when I saw the article. Teehee

True about the hair, in my experience. I've had friends comment and ask how I get my hair the way it is and some exes have too. DBF comments about my hair a lot of the times, but usually, it's just messy in my opinion. I like the messy beach waves look that I normally get when I get out of bed if I washed my hair right before bed. I think I'm lucky because sometimes my hair looks great in the mornings and I don't even run a comb through it. laugh out loud

I still haven't tried my rollers yet! But I will this week! It hope it works with the products prep!

hehe that is awesome you have great hair by just sleeping on it!!

i used the rollers again a week ago and went bm dress shopping. by the time i got to the place all my curls had fallen out again, so i was just left with volume & body in my hair. my friend LOVED it, and asked me where i got my hair cut and how i did it. i was surprised, kuz i usually always love HER hair (she has thin sparse long hair so it looks really really good curled - something i could never accomplish).

not a guy's opinion, i know, but i usually don't get comments on my hair since it's generally just straight.


oh, also, i wanted to report here that i don't think OPI np stays very well on me. i did my nails on wed and it started chipping by sat. i took it off yesterday. this was SH-base, 2 coats OPI np, seche vite top. i'm now trying julep again with SH-base and SV top. let's see how long this lasts.

What is everyone thinking about getting from sephora? I've been admiring the new tarte foundation brush Smilie

My hair is the one thing that really stands out about me, but I used to HATE it when I was younger. I have long straight red hair that keeps styles very easily. It's sort of an odd color red, since I'm not Irish. When I was younger, people used to make fun of it, but as I grew older, I realized it was what made me unique. When I was really young, my aunt used to take me to doll shows. As I walked down the isles, I used to have doll makers ask her how much she would sell my hair for. To this day, I'm still scared of dolls...and I won't go to doll shows.
