I’d love to be able to smell these in person before committing to a full bottle purchase.

Thank you in advance! I appreciate it.🙏🏻

I have some items I’ve been wanting to get, but I’m holding off in case there’s a good sale/incentive.

Thanks in advance!🙏🏻

I went to Monarch downtown. Very upscale and lux experience/service, but I have 2 issues: a little too pricy for my budget AND my botox wore off way faster than usual. I usually get a good 12-16 weeks, but it wore off in 8!

I need recs for a skilled professional who won't give me wonky Spock brows, but will give lasting results.

Thanks in advance.

(Edited to add ive been to 2 places, Monach and Charleston Med Spa. Wonderful people/experience…..BUT paid over $500 and at both places and at both it wore off in 7-10 weeks. I gave only gotten Botox maybe 10 times in my life and the other 8 times it lasted 12-16+ weeks…actually longer a few of those times. )

Thank you in advance. I appreciate it.

Thank you in advance. I appreciate it. 🙏🏻

Just recently realized how smart it is to save your points for the $100 voucher and got my first one yesterday! Immediately used it towards a bottle of original Chanel Coco so I got another 200 points just for the overage! (The perfume was $154.)😁

Anyway, I’m now hooked. How ofter do they offer this? What time of year typically?

EDITES TO ADD: I recently took advantage of the 500 points on any $75 purchase. I made 2 separate purchases a few days apart. I almost wonder if i could gave done a third, but i didn’t want to push it lol.

I find that detangling the ends/length of my hair with a conditioner before shampooing really helps in every way. It seems to be much less damaging than dry detangling for me. I only have 2c hair, BUT doing this I’ve noticed far less breakage.

What are your favorite conditioners for detangling slip? Low OR high end recs appreciated! I don’t mind spending on my hair lol. 🙏🏻😅

EDITED TO ADD my hair is fine with, and actually seems to love, silicones, so any product recs are welcome!

It seems like pricey shampoo and conditioners are a bit out of fashion lately, being replaced with affordable drugstore product. In a lot of ways I love this trend, as I don’t think quality has to necessarily mean expensive.

I have aging 2b-2c hair that does have some bleached highlights (twice a year). I also do a gloss every 6 weeks or so. BUT I invest and use Epres and K18 and my hair is in relatively good condition considering.

Ive been using drugstore S&C for the past year or two, with OK results. But I recently have given Olaplex S&C a try and really love it! I also used the no 6 leave in and a little of their oil, focusing on the frizzy temples and length, to give Olaplex a fair try (I gave deluxe samples).

Love the way my hair looks and feels! But I can’t help but wonder if it’s only temporary. Its been 3 shampoos and stylings so far.

Anyone use this line long-term with great success? Are you happy with their products?

I find it (both edt and wdp) beautiful, light, feminine, and hopeful/youthful. Love this scent! And its also the fragrance my husband adores on me….it always garners a genuine compliment from him and he seldom compliments!

The biggest issue I have with it is I VERY QUICKLY become nose blind to it. I smell it pretty much only when I first put apply, but that’s about it. Call me selfish, but I love getting wafts of my perfume through the day and I never do with this one. I re-apply several times a day and only smell it when applying.

If I love this, what other feminine perfume might I love? Not necessarily looking for a dupe (tried BDK Bouquet de Hongrie and didn’t love it), rather something that makes me feel the same as when i first apply the Eau Tendre. High or low end recs most welcome and appreciated!

(Oh and I do have and love Dior J’adore d’Eau which is very nice and in a similar feminine vein.)

I'm thinking of trying the one from Platinum Skincare, but was wondering if there is something better out there.

A most sincere thank you in advance!

I used two products that I've never previously used (Curest 5% numbing cream and Curenex Skin booster) and didn't do a spot test, Very bad, I know....and now I've paid the price.

I woke up this morning with a face full of acne-like bumps. I'm 52 yo and haven't broken out since my 30s, so I'm assuming it's an allergic reaction. I actually took an antihistamine before bed, but I've taken several different ones today as well.

How long until this clears and I look normal again? I go back to work on Saturday.

For those who have tried most, or even all of them, do you mind describing the scents?

I mostly shop online and haven’t set foot in my local store for eons. (Depression related.)

A most sincere thank you in advance!🙏🏻

I’m a natural person and seldom even wear eye makeup. My lashes have gotten so sparse and short with age though and I’m desiring a boost.

Is it possible to get extensions that don’t look like extensions? Just a light, natural, youthful look?

Thank you. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

I’ve lost 27 pounds with Tirz over the past 10 months, most of the weight loss in the first 6-7 months. I’m at my ideal weight (BMI of 21.7) and beyond happy. SO happy and content with my new size.

While on Tirzepatide I worked up to the full 15 mg. Then backed down to 7.5-10 mg per week, depending on how I feel. It’s what I’m currently maintaining on, but I’d ideally like to go much lower for maintenance.

However this is the issue I’m having: I’m hungry OFTEN and food noise feels back. I’m thinking about snacks and junk food much more often than I should be on this dose of Tirz. Is my body just used to it OR could it be the uptick in diet soda usage?

I “got back on” Pepsi Zero and like a true addict drink two to four 16 oz bottles a day. It started because I needed an emotional “treat”/pick me up during my 12 hour ER shift. Now im solidly addicted. I’m not proud of it, actually embarrassed by it, but this is the context lol. 😅

In your opinion am I just used to Tirzepatide OR has drinking diet soda increased my food noise despite being on Tirzepatide?

I’m someone with naturally short, sparse eyelashes. At 52 years of age, it seems to have gotten worse. I take fastidious care of my skin and don’t even wear eye makeup, and have never had lash extensions, so I’m not sure what’s going on. My eyebrows are thick, so this makes it even weirder.

I do have allergies which affect my eyes, and I’m scheduled to have an appointment to check my eye glands next month.

I’m considering both Latisse and natural looking eyelash extensions. I don’t want make up, but I do want to accentuate my eyes for beauty.

The only thing that gives me pause is the risk of peri-orbital fat loss.

If you have ever used Latisse, do you mind sharing your experience? Do you still use it? Have you used it long-term?

A most sincere thank you in advance!🙏🏻

I live on an island in the south eastern United States. High humidity.

Recently diagnosed with 30 different allergies, mostly environmental…the biggest inside (vs outside) culprits dust mites, cats, and dogs.

I bought a dehumidifier and an extra small ac unit (to offset dehumidifier heat). Ive been working very hard to keep my bedroom at 46% or less, but the two units have to literally run 24/7 and i HAVE to keep the door shut at all times.

Its soooo much work and i only just started a couple of days ago. Please tell me there’s hope.

Just found out I have a milk allergy, which I suspected (malar edema, facial redness).

I’m wondering if butter and heavy cream might be okay. I’m willing to make necessary changes, I’m just a little depressed and figuring it all out lol.

(Also allergic to soybean, crab, sesame, and black walnut.)
