Try Redken, that's what I've been using. :shrug: Aveda reeks, and doesn't work as well IMO.Wenchy said:Girly girl...Shut up and dance...
Makeup? I've found what works for me, but I'm still ticked off that my Agree shampoo was discontinued...still in search of the perfect shampoo.

My niece gave me some Pureology. I love the conditioner, it has a menthol type ingredient that makes your scalp feel so good. It's pricey though.

I'm gonna go check this stuff out at the Sephora store near me tomorrow, but was browsing through ebay to see what the big deal was with buying it on there, and I'm 
... seems like all I see are little itsy bitsy tiny amounts (1/8 tsp ... 1/4 tsp) in big azz containers being sold as samples, and by the way a lot of them are written, they're doing this at home supposedly in a "sterile environment with sterile tools". 
Are ya'll finding full-sizes somewhere on ebay or are ya'll buying the sample sizes? :shrug: I don't wanna get there tomorrow, get sold on the stuff, but think I can buy the same amount for half price on ebay if that isn't the case.

Crab, I did some eBay checking and, after you figure in the shipping, it's not any cheaper than buying from Sephora. Plus Sephora sends you sample goodies.
What's it smell like? I wear Ralph by Ralph Lauren and really like it, but it's time for a change.Nickel said:

I don't know, I can't identify scents. Don't put me on the spot.vraiblonde said:
Sephora says:
Pomegranate, Persimmon, Green Notes, Black Orchid, Lotus Blossom, Champacca Flower, Liquid Amber, Mahogany Wood, Black Violet, Cream Accord.
Must be the pomegranate that I like...I got a sample of some pomegranate lotion a few months ago, and have been wanting to order it, but it's always out of stock.

Good points.vraiblonde said:
Call me paranoid, but I'd be very nervous buying a product that was going to have contact with my skin from someone who's playing beauty mixer/divy-upper in their home ... you just don't know what kinda freaks there are out there and what the hell kind of crazy intentions they may have ... what chemical they may add unbeknownst to the buyer :anthrax:, etc. At least -- when you buy it from the manufacturer directly -- you have some recourse if it fails to meet your expectations or you have some freaked out reaction to it.
And someone will surely call me crazy for thinking it possible ... but then again, who thought someone would fly jets into buildings.

I wear CKOne and Obsession as my regular scents because they're "flexible" for whatever I might be doing/where I might be going and blend well with my chemistry. But I have a few that I like when I wanna little spice -- Cool Water for women ... Mambo/Mamba (can't remember what it's called) ... Sunflowers when I wanna be all dreamy and virginal like ...vraiblonde said:

Where will she put it if I'm bad?

Ooooh! That sounds awesome!Nickel said:
I used to wear CKOne, too, then I switched to CKBe, now I'm with Ralph. Which Larry likes because he can tell me I smell like ralph.
