Quote from nerdgirl :
Coverlaugh i was notified of the wag almay deal back when we had the chat forum. i have a few stores near me so i ended up totally stocking up on makeup removers and method soap - i'm still using them! the makeup removers turned out to work pretty well (i love the moisturizing one with mineral oil) and i already loved method soaps. i don't usually go to wags and stopped going to RA bc their rewards expire so fast. i like cvs bc i get to take my time - i often get too busy to go ds-ing every week and i like that i get a whole month for cvs. plus, there's 1 nice cvs by me where they take expired ecb's.

i generally hoard for about a year, then go through my stash until i'm almost out. then i start to hoard again... and the process/cycle continues. laugh out loud

i'm like slicky - i won't use those face bars (or any bar soaps) on my face. when i get those bars, i end up using them on my body. actually i've used a few face washes as body soaps, bar or liquid. it works well to deplete the stash. Smilie i'm so excited that i JUST finished my sephora birthday body wash from last year! that one took forever! laugh out loud
I love DS'ing. It is very time-consuming. My issue with WAG is that the hardcore people buy things I would never use nor do my friends and family. I do not have yard sales, so the good RR deals were lacking for me. I usually did not roll my RRs. Therefore, it was more expensive for me to shop there. I do not pay a lot of money at CVS. (Except maybe tomorrow, I think I am going to buy the Philips AirFloss. My dentist recommended it.) When I do, I get GCs using my CC points.

The Neutrogena Naturals facial bar is not first on my list to use, but I am curious about it. That birthday body wash from Sephora went bad on me. It was almost gone though, so I was not upset. I used it when I traveled via air. It was the perfect size.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
I use purpose. Love it Icey. I also use vivite exfoliating cleanser sometimes.
I have never heard of either.

Quote from slickydoll :
That's okay. It's important to check out cleansers and update your routine every now and then.

This one looks interesting. I may try it at some point.

http://www.sephora.com/gentle-foa...dAnswerTab
I am trying to stay away from the expensive ones. I took inventory, and I have a lot on my shelf to try. There is one at Lush I almost purchased, but I may get a sample first.

Quote from Stardust42 :
Aw, thanks much for reposting it, Icey! hug You look great in that dress! My first thought on seeing it is "princess." Girly And alvsy was right, it looks like you've full, voluminous hair. I'm jealous. Stick Out Tongue

Does that mean you might be moving to another state if you find a job? Seems like a big transition. Best of luck to you, Icey! Smilie
No problem. Hahaha...princess, that is a first. Don't be jealous, Dusty. It is a lot to deal with.

Yes! I need to get out of my hometown. I am tired of being here. I will miss my friends and some family, but I am ready to move on with life.

Quote from slickydoll :
I've used this one but at only 4.2 oz it doesnt last very long.

That looks very interesting.

The only reason I'm even looking at the pricey cleansers at Sephora is that I have store credits to use Teehee

Cant justify any large makeup purchases since I have so much already.

Purpose is made by Johnson & Johnson. You can buy it at a drugstore. Vivite is a skincare line by the company that makes botox. Dr offices sale it. You can also buy it on some of the beauty Internet sites.

I like some of ole hendrickson's products. I'm getting away from sephora's stuff more and more and using the lines that they sale at my dr. They have skinceuticals, Vivite, skinmedica, and obagi!

That is the sunscreen I use. It also comes in a formula that isn't tinted. I like it because it's gentle. They put it on my face after I have microderm or a peel. It doesn't bother me even after that.

hey azn, was this [victoriassecret.com] the coverup that you had liked? wasn't sure if you'd seen it in clearance - looks to be pretty cheap now!
I did see that! I did a return and rebuy a while ago at that price nod
Quote from Stardust42 :
I'm still on the search for a good moisturizer with SPF. Lately, I figured out moisturizer with chemical sunscreen leaves my skin itchy, so I just started to look for one with only physical sunscreen instead. Would like to hear if anyone has any recommendations. look around
Wave I got my L'Occtiane coupon for the hand cream. Just a heads up.
Quote from IceyNiki :
I believe so because she purchased the risque swimwear that matches it. It has been $34.99 forever though. I purchased it at $34.99, but returned it because I do not actually have swimwear that matches it. (I think a white swimsuit would look fab with it.)
laugh out loud Yes, I did. nod I think probably a gold swimsuit would go well with it? I don't really know? White could work too, but I got matching to not have to worry bounce

Wait a couple more days. It will take 3-4 days. There was the weekend to consider Smilie So don't worry! I've noticed they've been taking a bit longer than I'm used to.

I have a ton of items in my shopping bag, and there are no freebies! (I do not want that flimsy "backpack".)

if a job listing says an application document should have "500 words", can I submit one with 600 words?

here's the wording: "...three letters of recommendation and a 500-word statement on..."

I don't "think" they will count your words. How many pages does 500 words take up? if it's on the same amount of pages, I think it will be ok.

i also think they just say this so people don't submit very long essays.

I don't know k - while I agree with you that it is most likely just a general spec of how long to make your statement, you know academic types... I would hate to lose a job because 1 person on the hiring committee is a stickler for rules. 100 words over is quite a bit (20%). I'd try to keep it in the 500s.

I have one white bottom and a few white tops, but I do not wear them together. The coverup is so cute though.

Are you submitting this electronically? I would stick to what was asked. My aunt is a recruiter. They do not receive resumes electronically, but someone in the office has to manually put them into a database. She screens people out who do not follow the requirements.

wave

Hope you ladies are doing good! I just wanted to stop and ask you all if you knew about the product testing Loreal does. Last time I did a survey for them ( literally, a SURVEY) they sent me 5 products as a thank you. They included a Lancome color design eye quad, Kiehls Mascara, Kielhs eye makeup remover and two others. The last 2 product tests I did warranted a full size Lancome Visionnaire and a SkinCeuticals cream.

The link to sign up is here [lorealusa.com].

I can't promise you'll get in or anything, but I thought maybe some of you would be interested in trying Smilie I'll update here when they have surveys available too!
