I sacrified one of my homemade twist bands for a humor point.....



Maybe I will wear it to work one day, haha.  There is a little room left to write the word "off"

Is there a way to search for people in trades who are wanting to try the Amika mask?

Control (or command/apple if you're a mac) F and search for amika on each page. Probably the easiest way.

Received my box today. Definitely should have opted out of the poop. I got box 20. Included supergoop foil packets, ouidad packet, kiehls eye cream in a baby tube, mighty leaf tea and That jouer lip enhancer that is tiny!! Here's to better luck next month!

Actually, you can do an Advanced Search and search for the keyword 'amika' and search only in the forum Make-up > Multiples (where everyone posts their trade lists) and Narrow Results to "Posts Only". You'll also get the posts by everyone who has it up for trade, not just who has it on their wishlist, but it's a lot faster than manually clicking on every trade post and doing the search.

Has anyone tried the Kiehl's Rose artica yet?  We were comparing BB's today at work and one of my coworkers got the Rose Artica, giving it to another coworker.  Coworker put it on and said it "burned."  I tried to look to see if it is supposed to offer these properties but was not successful.  

Makes me feel better about sending my box back!

Ladies! Insider info...VS is starting to look into expanding their sizes for bras! Great news for us larger-busted girls!

I also love Cacique at Lane Bryant AND Frederick's of Hollywood makes GREAT large bras that are SEXY!

I'm not sure if this has been talked about there is like 7 new pages since I last saw.  BB has to approve your comment on the new product review but when I looked at one product it had zero bad things to say and no less than 4 stars.  Now I get that alot of things are great and for the most part it will have good reviews but my question is are they going to let us post or less than 4 stars review?

If I had any money (I literally had to get the ten bucks for BB this month from my aunt because I'm out of work and have a long sob story that I won't bore you with), I would buy some of your faux twistbands off of you, provided you wanted to sell them. I'd be particularly pleased if some of them had swear words written across their length. 

Ermergerd. 

I think I can customize those for you... bejeweled expletives is a market twistband just hasn't entered yet /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

but i'd have to make very certain that I am charging exactly 3X my cost, so excuse me while I calculate the cost per rhinestone.

i'll get back to you with a quote /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I ordered the 20 yards of fold over elastic on Etsy that someone suggested and I'm going to make my own twist bands.  Wish me luck!

YAYYYY That was my suggestion /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Awesome color choices, glad I was able to help some people with my faux twistband advice. It was my only intention /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I got a call back from BB a week after I left a message!  Nicole wanted to make sure someone had addressed my issues per voicemail.  Wow after a week of calling getting vm and several emails not addressing the problems but playing the blame game I got a returned call.  Now that I have canceled one sub seriously thinking of canceling both will it make a difference if I try to call back or will it be more of the same.

I've seen quite a few less than 4 star ratings? Maybe you should look at the ratings of more than just one product. There are bad 3 star or less reviews even on the best selling items.

OP Delivers! I told you I was talking about the f'ing elastic.
