He had to leave Monday for work. I was pretty stern with him before the surgery about how he'd have to let them heal and everything. I think I scared him laugh out loud.

I have the stuff i have open and am currently using in one of those lancome train cases they do around the holidays.

My stash is in a lingerie chest in one of the extra bedrooms. I ran out of room and have the rest in a box. I'm crazy. I also have some in some plastic bins under the bed. That is the skincare stuff. The make-up is in the chest. The box has both skincare and make-up.

My face primer has separated. When I pump it, it comes out as a liquid, not creamy like it was originally. I've only had it for about a month. This happens to my eye shadow primer sometimes, too, and I can never figure out why. It's as though the oils dissolve and make everything watery. Is there a way to prevent this? I can still use the primer, but it's super annoying and drippy.
I think the girls are right.

I also had Too Faced eyeshadow primer separate on me too. I usually just roll it really fast in my hand because the heat from your hand will help them soften and get mixed in again

I had the Angels one when they were first released. In hindsight, I really didn't like it. Over time, the straps became super loose very very quickly. The material is not breathable either.

Maybe other girls might have better experience

I was thinking, did they give you some bandage bra to wear? My roommate's girlfriend had hers done in college and she slept sitting up and wore bandage bras. They were in different colors and stripes and it helped hold them down so they don't go to your neck or move. I'd say her bandage bras were pretty cool, matched with clothing and you can't even tell it's for a boob job.

I've been sleeping sitting up. I get stiff at night and it hurts to get up if I'm lying down all the way. They didn't give me any special bras. My boobs don't like bras right now. They want to be free.

I've never had a primer really separate on me but Urban Decay's DeSlick in the tube did some sort of strange beading thing. It has some sort of rubberized little clumps in it and it was new! It's practically impossible to rub in without leaving pieces of it all over your face. It was a shame because it seems like it might have worked.


I just bought some more eye primer from beauty.com in hopes that they'll actually ship the free sample of NARS eye primer.

I also vote for the BBV wireless! Very comfy and lots of cute prints and colors.

I hadn't even thought to check MJR. Thanks for the reminder. bounce

The stretchy fabric is what concerns me. I'm afraid of weakening it & causing it to tear. It shouldn't be hard to take up, if it won't destroy the fabric.

I like matching solids with prints too. I already ordered a solid top w/print bottoms, & a print top w/ solid bottoms. My DH likes the all leopard look, but I may have to go with a solid color anyway. He also liked the matching bottoms with the other print top, but he got vetoed. Coverlaugh I decided to keep the solid bottoms instead.

I'm off to check MJR. Wish me luck.
I'm with azn, Secret Embrace seems to stretch out pretty quickly. I think you're supposed to hand wash them only, but I wash all my bras in washing machine with lingerie bags. The straps also irritate my skin. Overall, I wouldn't recommend them.

Good luck on MJR! Smilie

You should sell your stash & go on vacation. bounce

That's probably why that bra is so cheap. Thanks for the warnings. I'll pass.

This was my new favorite, until they stopped selling it in my size. Annoyed

I have used UPS label from one order to return some items, can I use the USPS label from the same order for another return order? Anyone ever tried it?

I like it. I like the fact that it is transparent, much easy to find out things.
