Here's a comparison chart done by a blogger: http://www.misslabelle.com/2012/05/17/setting-lotion-trial-the-results/ Based on personal experience, I definitely vote for Lottabody. I tried my best with flaxseed lotion, but on my hair it really dulled the shine, and therefore the overall effect...

I simply use a special soap (if that is the correct term) for handwashing. Either the Oxy or the Blink one, both are, in my experience, just fine. Meh, of course, in Europe, you have to watch where it was manufactured - I'm not a 100% sure, but I think I'm buying those made in Germany...

SkullChick, you might want to see a dermatologist. If you changed your beauty routine and still get irritations, break-outs, rashes, etc., the solution could be a tad deeper than a good face cream. In the meantime my advice would be a) the same as Oh lala!'s b) if the key factor is irritation...

Oh, boy, this snowballed fast :) At least the church is seeing a tourist flow. Praised be the Internet.

GHT, your wife looks beyond lovely! My most sincere compliments! Antje, thank you so much for explaining the wave! I've always wondered how it was done, and never got around th finding out.

You might want to be careful about regular application of lemoin juice to your skin. It doesn't need any undue stress. Sour cream with minced persley is better for sunburns (or to make freckles pale).

Scarlet Street (1945). I think it's a great example of the noir genre, even if gets overlooked a lot. P.S. this film makes me wish Jess Barkers' movie career weren't so short-cut. He could have dished out some great roles. Le sigh.

You know, I went a very un-traditional route just the last days. :) I usually prefer "dr. Organic's Rose Otto Night Cream", but I've been having a few stress-related (or so I think) break-outs and irritations (P.S. I'm a VERY pale skinned gal), and I used a sample of Lush's Ro's Argan Body...

Have you tried a dark grey?

fortworthgal, do you moisturise before you apply the makeup? I mean, as in right before application?

Goodness, you all look so wonderful!

An old lady shared a recipe with me - I don't know how "vintage-authentic" it is, but seeing as how she's well over 80, I think it qualifies. Homemade, too. Take 5 garlic cloves, grind them, mix in a tablespoon of cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, ginger, and kurkuma each (all ground). Add enough...

The Woman in Black (2012) I've had some serious doubts about this, remakes being what they are and the 1989 film being a masterpiece. But this film was a very pleasant disappointment.

lynseyshaw, since I had absolutely the same concerns, I'll answer that gladly :) I'm a 36F in What Kaite Did measurements and I've always had trouble with adequate back support with modern bras, with the back strap riding up to my neck and the shoulder straps cutting in like hell. (Excuse me)...

Carmen Del Rio / I love both your your hair and your eye make-up! The rolls look absolutely great.
