My husband has been taking care of me the last few weeks and made a really delicious beef stew. He always goes out of his way to make things that I'll enjoy when he cooks.

Thanks for responding and posting Karen's letter! It's useful to know what's up with the color -- I love all of Karen's skincare products so far, but it's still good to have an explanation for why there might be variation.

I've been using SN's skincare for the last few months and have been completely loving everything... I'm now on my third bottle of Super Defense Serum, and I've noticed that every batch is a dramatically different color. Is this normal for most people? The sample I tried was very dark and viscous, bu...

My favorite cleanser for my synthetic brushes by far has been castille soap. Dr. Bronner's works just fine and it comes in a huge bottle and lasts forever. You only need a tiny drop of it or it will take a really long time to wash out all of the suds (and if there is any of it left, you're more like...

You know you have too many e/s when... You ask for an e/s gwp that sounds so pretty in the description and in the swatches... and when it comes, you realize you already have it!

One of my favorites from SN was a total surprise -- Tart blush. It looks positively frightening in the jar, but it gives the most beautiful, fresh flush. Applied with a light hand, it even looks natural. I'm Asian (quite yellow, warm-toned) and normally this color (very cool, very pink) would scare ...

Up for swap : GWP eye colors in 3g sifter jars. I've unsealed them -- but only to take a swatch each. Otherwise, they are unused. - Original - Twister - Fool's Gold - Amalgam - Oracle - Winsome [claimed] Would like to swap for : Silk Naturals eye color samples! A little bit in a baggie will do! - B...

Yes! Definitely more easy-to-find and easy-to-order kits, even if they're with already-existing colors (e.g., for the brown-eyed girl, for the glamour girl, for breaking the glass ceiling). Also, for people who don't know the brand's products really really well, it could be useful to have kits that ...
