Oh, they would definitely send another tube! You should call. They keep getting bigger and bigger and doing more and more tests. If I can get a job in CA when i finish DBF wants to work for them. Did you or DH ever get yours done? I hear it's just awesome!

Happy Birthday!

they are in CA? it sounds really cool.

happy birthday btw!

Yup, based out of San Francisco. Lots of the big genetics players are there. It would be idea if we could both move there once I finish my program.

Wow! Thanks everyone for all of the birthday love! I'm totally floored by all of the nice messages and posts. This will be a good one for sure

I may go look. I glanced at the site this morning but I don't like ordering from them without a code.

I'm not sure. I haven't used any yet. That may be why they sent so many and multiples to the same email. I didn't log in when I used some of the free shipping pins because i was trying to use up the src's.

Quote from nerdicus

:

wait, so can you use this even if it's not your bday?

Quote from tarribear

:

You can only use one reward per that period? It used to be as many as you wanted. I guess they did that to curtail the fleabay selling of them.

Quote from PordaPoddy

:

I also got these clips from BedBathandBeyond so you can cascade the hangers on each other, but I'm reserving that for space emergencies

Happy Burfdaaaaay! Is this the one you can only use 1x per account? I know the Angel rewards work that way (only one reward-type SPXXXX code per account from that reward period)
Happy Birthday!

That will be nice for you- it will help with the post-wedding planning vacuum

That is very kind of you

. Do you do the D-store shuffle? I backed off on it. My returns are mostly lingerie and swim that I paid full price for

I still need to unload my d-store stash at a shelter and set aside pillows, towels and sheets for the animal hospital. The to-do list for 2013 just keeps growing.

I bought that kit for DH and I a few years ago and had to contact them for something- they are very nice. My kit actually expired (the tube w/ media that you send the sample in), and I think they might actually replace it.

i remember for my bday i got 2 codes both sent to me directly from VS. it let me use one n the 2nd one gave me the mssg only one per account. i ended up placing the order over the phone. they verified it was my bday and put it through.

you can use bday codes even if its not ur bday. someone gave me one of theirs and i was able to use it during my non-bday month. it only allows you to use one tho...you can always do guest check out tho.

my lashes are stick straight asian lashes so i rely on eyelash curlers. some mascaras will straighten my lashes after i curl them. i've been using clinique high impact and it's ok with my lashes so far, but (as i mentioned earlier today) lancome does not play nice and uncurls them. so far i think lancome may be the only brand that i've tried that straightens my lashes this much. it's such a shame kuz otherwise their formula is really nice!

i will have to try tarte.

i need the curl to get those pesky lashes out of my eyes!

Glad it wasn't just me with those fresh sugar lip balms.

Quote from Cheapeats

:

It holds my curl well but my lashes are so short that they usually stay curled.

Tarte's Lights Camera Lashes has a more intense curl for me but it didn't really add any length like They're Real.

My Fresh Sugar lip balms always broke too!

new bday sephora gift!

deluxe minis of benefit's they're real and watt's up

Quote from red333

:

It's nice having a January birthday because we can choose between the new and old gifts. I'm torn. The fresh sugar stuff is my favorite lip stuff ever, but the benefit mascara is pretty awesome

Sephora has has amazing birthday gifts the last few years (ever since the philosophy one).

how nice you get to choose! i just started using the fresh sugar lip . its like amazing.. is there anything else out there so moisturizing? i put it away for the entire year til recently. the cold weather makes everything soo chapped. asked my coworker for a recommendation since most lip stuff i use doesnt moisturize long enough.. n she recommended fresh.

i swear ..too many samples. its so hard to use up even one deluxe sample.
so far so good tho, the fresh sugar lip hasnt broken off. does it get softer as you use it? im thinking the ice cold is keeping mine in tact

DBF says my house is colder than outside!

I have three authorized users on my account, I feel they should all be able to use the birthday code online and in the store. Not sure if that is even ok.

i wonder if doing guest checkouts is the reason i got 2 on the same email. it's weird.

just don't stick it in your pocket - it will never recover.

i keep mine in my purse now but may have had it in my pocket once. i think that's what killed it for me.

mine normally ends around the 10th.

getting older is much better than the other option. i still don't like it though. i don't think i should be 30's. i feel 20 something!

I know what you mean. In my mind, I'm still in my 20's. Unfortunately, my body feels every day of 44 & then some. I still know how to have a good time, which many people my age have seemed to have forgotten. My sisters & BILs can be so boring & seem so old.

They have a NYE party every year, but it ends by 9:30 pm.

You're as old as your mind feels.

Quote from Cheapeats

:

It also sucks that our birthdays are so close to Christmas and Valentines Day too (well for those who usually have a significant other).

I feel bad for even wanting a present right after the holidays.:l ol:

My DH's birthday is the 30th & DS's is Valentine's Day. I often forget to save DH a gift & give them all for Christmas. Then I'm scrambling to come up with something to give him. We've always bought DS birthday & Valentine's gifts, so he could celebrate both. Now that he's older, we have to celebrate his birthday on a different day. He's always gone on Valentine's night. The good thing is we now get to celebrate Valentine's Day as a couple. We used to make the day all about him. The birthdays around Christmas seem to be the worst. Most people do like I do & just divide the gifts between the 2 occasions. Last year for DH's 50th I booked us a getaway. I usually only do special things like that on milestone birthdays though. For most, he gets what I remember to save out of his Christmas gifts.

CUTE! i think it's fine. in general lighter browns read taupe/neutral to me and work with both browns and blacks.
