Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

I also have some obagi that i use for after peels. It's pretty thick and moisturizing. I also use it around my mouth when I get flacky there. Hate that.

Quote from kurips :
50% off + coupon is the best deal! We don't know what they'll have at 50% though. I'll use my $15 rc.
I pissed I don't have a coupon laugh out loud.

I'll have to log in and see if I have a reward. It should be about that time.

Neither will mine. He says "hi I have a problem with my order, but I am going to pass you over to my wife, she handles all the finances." Teehee
At least he introduces you. He wants me to do it from the dialing Mad

Do rewards come at the same time for everyone?

Not sure. I normally get my VS, express, and limited bills around the same time.

Ole Hendrickson makes nice products. I also use some stuff I got from my dr. Skinmedica, skinceuticals, and vivite. I'm a product whore.
They sell Ole Hendrickson at Sephora, I have sample packet I should try out. Also on Earth Day this year, Origins is giving out moisturizers so I'm gonna get one to try out.

Mine says I earned 2500 points. And wait for the email.

I should be receiving a last RC from right before the switch. I don't have it yet.

They show up on your account before you get an email. There will be a box to check asking if you want to apply them.

Hi Girls,

I was just wondering what beauty products/brands you girls use especially for face cleanser, moisturizer, scrub? Sometimes pricey products don't work well for me (kind of sensitive skin). Right now, I am using Clinique Moisture Surge which is good but not very moisturizing for me. What about Philosophy Hope in a Jar? I know you girls have lots of samples so you girls would know a lot more than I would. Thanks and hope you are having a good week.
When I messed up my sensitive skin by trying out different packet samples, I found the best way to remedy dry skin was to use Super+ coconut hydrator from Perricone as a base moisturizer and seal it in with Moisture Surge. I don't know what else the Moisture Surge is good for other than that. I've tried it in its own and it's so-so.

Philosophy Hope in a Jar was not good for me, didn't do anything. I second alvs, I like Ole Hendrickson. Also I don't remember who said, but you might want to try Origin's A Perfect World when they do their Earth Day trade- in. That's thicker than the other option, the Mimosa one.

For cleansers, I use a Japanese brand Noevir99. Love it since it immediately removes any acne that's starting to emerge.

Oh and the ole eye peel is awesome. I use it maybe every other night and put a heavier eye cream on top (also ole in an orange jar).

I bought my last ole from skinstore. I found a 20% coupon and they had more cb.

I've used HIAJ and I thought it was okay, nothing special for the expense! I find when something isn't moisturizing enough I add 1-2 drops of Jojoba oil to it and it helps. I love Jojoba after a peel or in the winter when I feel really dry, I use just the oil at night and wake up with soft skin! A little goes a long way tho.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Which black mini do you have? I have 2 from there!
I have this one in Black [express.com] and it isn't as short on me as the model since I have shortie legs. I also have this one High-Waist Banded Skirt [express.com] but I like the first mini better. Looks great with a nice pair of pumps .... especially my Jessica Simpson platforms. Wink

If he had a choice he wouldn't ... lol. Coverlaugh He hates talking to CC companies and ordering take out. I don't know what his deal is but if he's out there working while I'm home all day the least I can do is the talking. laugh out loud

They do it only once a month and it is when they do the billing.
