I hope you feel better soon Lisa!
Thanks for your top! It will give me an idea of what to try in your minerals!
I can't wait to try the mineral pencil and Kiss Me Mascara!
Oh it does. It is one of the most painful things ever! It felt like I was swallowing broken glass! I actually do have a kao free version of the liquid & the powder, we've been experimenting! I do like the Sarafina a lot & I also love GOW. Yes the smell of Sarafina is nice. Several things remind me of a pear scent. The Rosa Mosqueta does not really have a scent at all. LOVE this stuff! I also got f/s of the PureLife Bodywash REALLY liking that one. Next time though I'm getting the lemongrass one as I got the vanilla lavendar but all I smell is lavendar & that isn't a fav scent of mine.
The pencils are nice I am liking them. Right now I have dark brown & black coming. They are soft but not too soft & I haven't had any crumbling or breaking.
EEk! Awww *huge hugs* I hate the crushed glass feeling! Did you have to take any antibiotics? Hot tea with honey and lemon can be a little helpful.
Get out! --Okay, once you need a tester....I'm here! =P *drooling too* LOL!!!!
I'll definitely have to try Sarafina...especially the rosa mosqueta. Yep, and I also have a huge list of stuff I want to get from GoW and have to narrow down a tad. Too many things look so good. I'm looking into all kinds of ingredients...that's my problem. lol
...and with the pencils, do they have kaolin clay? *ducking head & crossing fingers* I really enjoy pencils for lazy or better put *hurried* days and I unfortunately, get a lot of those. lol
Yes & I am allergic to most anitibiotics! I am on Keflex & so far so good. 1 listed side affect is *skin rashes* EEEk!
I been drinking tea w/ honey (lemon HURT, that's how awful it was)
Pencils do not have kaolin clay! Ingredients:
Ingredients:
Oh man! Luckily, you're able to take that one. I hope it continues to go well and NO skin rashing. I can imagine the pain. Do try to at least take some kind of vitamin c soft gels or lots of green tea. Chamomile might be good for you too...it might help with some of the inflammation in the throat too...lots of honey though. Honey is good food. heehee How about cold things? Do they help at all? I remember when I had strep, I was constantly sucking on popsicles...the cold seemed to help numb.
Oooh, looks like I'll be ordering a brown one soon then. =P
I LOVE honey & I have a big box of green tea! Love chamomille too! Honey is a good facial mask. I've also been eating a lot of Otter Pops, LOL
The brown is nice. Its a really dark espresso brown. I'm trying to convince her to make some of my fav colors (like Smokey Green & Dark Mocha )
I agree...honey is awesome. Love how refreshed it makes my skin look and feel...and it helps that it tastes good too! lol Very good! Both of those teas are so good and good for you too. Who can pass up an otter pop...I want the BLUE one! lol
Dark Espresso and Dark Mocha are definitely in my league of browns. =D
So Aubryorganics smells strong? I am on the VitaCost site ordering! Wow love this site!
You will have to fight Zack for the blue one!
The strong product from AO is their GPB shampoo & conditioners...they smell like pine sol, but they do work like a dream on the hair. The other product I didn;'t like the smell of so much was the sensitive skincare set in their skin specific Travel A Go-Go...smelled like maple syrup to me. lol Their Rosa Mesqueta products smell divine though....really nice! Hand & body creams are very nice. The Honeysuckle Rose Shampoo & Conditioner works well and has a softer pleasant scent.
LOL!!!! I couldn't fight Zack...he's too adorable! =D
I just ordered some rosa mosqueta body lotion & other stuff from this VitaCost site only $5 shipping! Love rosa mosqueta on my face so decided to get body lotion too.
Pine Sol? eew! LOL My hair is pretty dry & I blow it out straight a lot.
I think I ordered mine from Vita Cost. lol Great deals too...was everything around 20% or more off??
I have pretty dry hair too and it needs moisturizing...like the rest of me. lol The GPB does work well, but man.....it STINKS!
Yes! I went to http://www.vitacost.com/ to order the Alvera Natural deodorant & ended up with a few other things! :-) Man I don't know if I can take stinky!
hmmm, I don't know if anything can cancel out the strong smell of pine. haahaa The blue PineSol is called "Sparkling Wave" scent...it reminds me of Tide's Mountain scents...a lot easier on the nose than pine. lol I'm not a huge "green" scent person though (or with Original PineSol, that would be orangey yellow). =)
...nothing like the blue otter pops, either way...those are just yummy. heehee
BTW where's Mystical Blue on your list. JK- LOL. I didn't even bother with too many e/s colors because I love them all. :-D I'm an e/s ho too. LMAO.
I DO need to add that e/s as well as Peach Fuzz! BTW did you see my post on Makeup swap about BE WellRested? Hoping you know?
Lookit that! You listed Twilight Green first! LOL Had no idea! What? you don't have Caribbean teal as one of your HGs??!!!! That's my all time favorite from you as well as Opal Beige.
Yes I am better now but the Keflex made me SOO sick! Dr told me today to toss it. No one else got it. I spent all week boilng toothbrushes & running around with disinfectant, LOL
I love Carib Teal too but like the darker greens better , but its in the 'many more' LOL Opal beige doesn't look as good on me as on you! I think it may be myage & its a higher sheen color
I have a ton of new colors & new jar sizes to announce & I been too sick to do it!
