Cheap on Ebay...

I should give those another try. The only thing that I didn't like was that the strips only cover/bleach your front teeth! I do have the bleaching kit from the Dentist but they also make my teeth sensitive but I haven't been using Sensodyne toothpaste either as recommended.

Do you use the strips everyday Angel? You do have beautiful white teeth btw.

Been lurking! But I decided I need some help from you ladies.
I have never been much of a girlie-girl, more like a plain Jane.
I am 43 and never worn any makeup except mascara and an occasional lipstick.
However, I have recently developed age spots on my face. Any solutions besides covering them up? Does the Oil Of Olay regenerist treatments help those as well?
Also, has anyone used any of those firming creams on cottage cheese thighs? Do they work? I workout regularly but nothing seems to help that area in the back of my upper thighs. UGH!

Anyone watch GMA this morning??? They said Oil of Olay Regenerist system best value for skin care and just as good or better than more expensive brands. Cool!

I am looking at the Victorias secret site and I soo wanna buy a bikini there..
I have one but I'd like another one as I don't really like the bottom part of mine.. But i'm too late.. It will never arrive here before i go.

Oh and a question..
If you are big chested do you use halter tops or just any kind? What shape/type of a bikini do you think is flattering for your self?

Halter, triangle, brazilian triangle. Mostly just let it all hang out!

I have to try the Mac cosmetics.. so much talk about them.. wonder where I find that here? And last, I had the whitening thing from the dentist, some years ago, wow they do make you teeth sooo sensitive... haven't used in ... don't know when.. teeth are yellow again, darn..... so about the white strips.. on EBAY are they good ... not liking arriving at "ole age".... guess I am just not having a good night... week.....thanks to all my "girls" ! I remain missing "my little girl" but you girls are such a big help... muah!!!!!

I hear ya on the hot flashes sista!! I've been hot flashing for almost 10 years as I started PM early. The only thing that I am grateful for is not having periods! I saw this cute little 'saying' on a plaque the other day: "I'm still hot, only now it comes in flashes"! Heh Heh Heh

As far as the Mac products go, I believe that they are Canadian made and I am not quite sure as to where you could find them in the States.

We have a MAC store at the MOA and Nordstrom's. Check here to who carries it around you.

Yeah these sizes are smaller than normal.. but they do "expand" when they are wet..

Muchas gracias for the offer.. I would definetely take it if I had enough cash to fool around with.. Just realized yesterday that I have to buy a new mascara and moisturizer.. and home wax.. and the list goes on.
I have 4 bikinis and 1 extra top... I think i'm ok



I called today and told my hair stylist that I didn't like my hair.. she's gonna fix it thursday

Yeah.. I think so too..
I was kinda scared to call.. but she was so nice that I didn't panic..

What a good deal! Even here in the midwest I pay close to $150 at a mid range salon.

there is a cream called "tri luma" - it's pricey (around $100US) and you need an rx but it lasts a long time and it works well for age/sun spots.
