New name, same girls!

Let me reintroduce, the VS Social Thread!

Since the Social Threads seem to have been done away with, this is the new home of the VS Social Thread. We talk about everything from VS to Express to Beauty to Coupons to Hot Deals...and of course, our personal lives.

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

Quote from azn1x6flame :
For the girls struggling with hormonal or stress acne, I found that using a honey and lemon face mask worked really well for me. I saw some friends I haven't seen in a month or so and they said my face had cleared up a lot from what it had been. These are friends I don't usually wear makeup around.

This recipe [urbanbushbabes.com] was used as a guideline. I found that juice of 1/2 lemon was too much. 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of honey was a good proportion for me.

I have done this for the last two months and my face has been a lot better. Not perfect, but much, much better. I also do it whenever my face feels like it's starting to flare up again. I will say limit to twice a week. But I do it to maintain at once a week. I leave on for 1 hour
Thanks! Do you use organic honey or anything? I have done one honey mask just never got around to doing it again. It just stunk so badly!! If it works though, it will be worth it!

I believe that's the code on the site that expires on the 9th. This one should be good for awhile just in case you want more!
Oh I see! Oh well, it's all good, I have been wanting to try them for a while. I have another birthday code to use, too. Smilie Is there a chance on the last night of earning SRC that it will overlap and we will be able to make an order using one? Like can I pay with an SRC and earn one on that same order? Never done the whole overlapping thing!

Quote from GoHeels :
I just tried on two lace tops from Express.

Short Sleeve Baroque Lace Tee in Indigo http://www.express.com/clothing/s.../cat550015 I was taking a chance knowing I couldn't return it, so I went with a Small. It's wide, so XS would probably have been better. Regardless, it's cute, so I'm happy with it. As luck would have it, I found a tank I had ordered from VS a few years ago that matches it perfectly. bounce

Baroque Lace Tank in Roma http://www.express.com/clothing/b.../cat290002 Again, I went with S to be safe. Unlike the short sleeve version, this one isn't wearable for me, unless I can figure out a way to alter it. It's really pretty. The color, design & length are great, but the arm holes are crazy wide*. I tried it with a beige bra & cami. Unfortunately, it shows way too much of both. If I can't figure out a way to fix it, it's destined to hang in the closet w/ tags attached forever. Sadwalk

*Now that I'm looking at the picture on the site with a more critical eye, I can see the arm holes are wide on her as well. There's no way I'd wear it as pictured. Hopefully, I can figure out a way to make it wearable for me.
for the short sleeve, i think the xs may get tight on the bust. i'm jealous of your indigo tank Teehee i wore my ivory long sleeve version with white tank, nobody complained. in fact, old lady at walmart liked it laugh out loud

for the tank, you ordered in s too? how is the fit... won't you be able to size down to get smaller armholes?

Also I noticed there is a link in the love list page where you can share it. In other words, if some clothes or items are not available anymore but can be only added and listed as available when it is on your love list, you can now buy it if your friend has it. Smilie

No spring break with or without snow. Sucks! Especially since we're not from here. It would be nice to go home Sadwalk. They don't make up days until the end of the year here. They keep normal scheduled holidays and add them onto the end of the year.

Quote from smilinghelen :

Also, of my 3 bra orders, the most expensive one for $60, did not not have the $15 reward gift card, even though the invoice showed it, 1 order had the reward card, and the last order had a different but much more expensive bra... I got both polka dot VSX bras, ANNNNND, here's something that you may not even believe, I got several items TODAY, via Fedex from items that I ordered YESTERDAY!!?!?!?$@!$

Lastly, only 4 out of 9 orders that arrived had the SRC's, the others did not

I have a special request from my brothers wife, she needs a clarisonic mia with brush heads, she really really needs one as per my brother.. she has very bad, what appears to be cystic acne and she's been recommended to get one... I've been put in charge of buying it and getting the best price.. Any help from ladies who have purchased one and can recommend a good website for me to stalk for codes, let me know. Smilie The deadline is open, since it'll be shipped to my moms house, who will then either ship it herself international my brother, or she will mail to a relative who is flying there, so they can give it to her.. Thanks.
VS has been slacking lately. I re-ordered a sweater dress and they shipped me a cheap shirt Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

I got my Clarisonic Plus from Nordies and I think on Amazon, they usually go for ~$100, not sure if that's a good price, but I think honey and lemon mask works. I had/have cystic acne. Almost nothing worked. Then the mask cleared up the scarring and the skin that have scarred over and over again.

I used to use organic honey from a bee farm, but now I use use regular store-bought honey because it's just going on my face, not in my system. My masks have always smelled delish! i can't help but lick when I get the mixture that runs a little into my lips when I'm applying. If honey smells bad, could it be that's old? It should smell citrusy and lemony nod
