I got my Skindinavia mist today. My mystery gifts were Dermstore Lip Quench http://www.dermstore.com/product_..._38330.htm & a .16 fl. oz. Dremu Oil Serum http://www.dermstore.com/product_..._11642.htm. At least, it wasn't Dial body spray like last time. laugh out loud

Quote from Tizzylicious :
Maybe I should just buy 2 white tanks! bulb I think the white one would be so cute over dresses. You know how it is here in Florida when you go out to dinner or shopping, they think because it's 95 outside it has to be 60 inside and when you go out after the sun goes down they don't adjust the AC. I freeze when we go out to dinner. I think the white one over a dress would still be light and summery. I liked the rouched sleeve and that it's a 3/4 sleeve too. I don't know, maybe I should look around at other places for a white blazer.
I take a sweater every where I go too. I hate being cold in a restaurant or theater. Another problem with indoor temps. in FL is many of the elderly are hotter natured. I used to tell the pastor to make sure everyone kept the water off or it was going to snow in church. That was my not so subtle way of telling him it was way too cold in there. They ended up putting some small blankets on the back pew thanks to my suggestion. laugh out loud I find I have the same problem everywhere though, so I never leave without a sweater here or on vacation.

You need more enablers! :whee :
I can't afford to allow them to be enablers. They're name brand snobs. shake head They're the family that I mentioned before that calls you up to brag on their $500 purse that I don't even like. I have to feign enthusiasm to keep from bursting their bubble. laugh out loud It's just not my thing. I can think of so many ways I'd rather spend the money.

My future daughter( who btw is not even conceived yet) is going to be with her son I have him booked 2 years ao i think : P K was in race too but she got baby boy : teehee:

If she turned out to be more nerd like I think she will go after one of k's son ; )

I missed the pic alvs, but I know how handsome he is.
Kurpee's baby will be the perfect age for your "not yet conceived" daughter. laugh out loud You need to get to work on that, before he gets too old. Stick Out Tongue My DH is 6 1/2 yrs. older than I though. I think that's a good age difference. Most guys my age weren't mature enough for me.

My DH is 4 years and 2.5 months older than me. I think 4 years difference is idle to match the maturity level nod But when I married him I never thought about age difference laugh out loud

I didn't really think about age difference either. My DH's maturity level was one of the things that I found attractive in him though. I was tired of guys who weren't as mature as I.

I ended up only spending $152. I'm so proud of myself. Stick Out Tongue I hope I stick to it, until the lingerie is marked down. There's a few more bras I'm on the fence about though. Facepalm I ordered some panties to match the new bras & bras I have, but I'm not sure I'll keep all of them. In most of the colors, the only available panty was a hiphugger. I'm not really a fan of hiphuggers, but I'll give them a try.

What did everybody order?

For those looking for the Estee Lauder DoubleWear Kit, my DH was just able to get the kit & GWP at our local Belk's. I was glad to save the extra $7.50 I would have had to spend to get my order up to $50. Plus, I'll have the foundation for the hot & humid parks next week. Whee

i quoted the wrong post, but your free gifts are great! one order got a $12 value and the other $77? i placed a couple of orders too Teehee

eta: i went back and now see the serum is not full size. still better than the drugstore brand mist they sent before that they don't even sell in their site.

I agree. I was happy with the freebies. They should at least sell the stuff they give away.

I've always been able to use as many GC's online as I wanted. It's surprising that you're having a problem. Maybe, the site is glitchy with the start of SAS. You should be able to use them together though.

I take a sweater with me everywhere I go too. It is REALLY cold in movie theaters here and restaurants are hit and miss with the temperature. I hate it though because I don't like to have it in my hand or on my shoulders so I usually carry semi-large purses. Sometimes I just want to take a tiny clutch and I can't.


Also I got the same dermstore freebies.

I usually just keep my sweater in the car, then put it on as I go inside. I rarely carry a purse, when I'm with my DH, so there's not other place to put it.

Did you order the Skindanavia spray also? I'm looking forward to trying it to compare it to the UD spray. I hope I like, because I have plenty of it now. laugh out loud

I'm on the subway like 90% of the time I go out since NYC parking is a nightmare.laugh out loud I miss cars.

I ordered the Skindanavia spray too. I've been using the small bottle of UD spray. I do wish they had the oily skin version on sale too but I had to buy it anyway. It's supposed to be the same spray as the regular UD one so I'm sure it will help some. Whenever I go out with my makeup on I find I don't have to blot as often if I use the spray to set it. I almost wish I had dry skin.laugh out loud

I wish the Estee Lauder Double Wear had worked for me but the coverage wasn't enough and the shade selection wasn't perfect for me either.
