I need a cheaper makeup remover. All I use it for is taking off the adhesive from the bandages from the IV. Total waste of Clinique, but it's the most effective thing I have in the house right now.

Cloth shoes, rainy day. Good looking out, ita !.

I'm glad the nice guy at Fry's tested my optical audio cable so I didn't run the risk of having to buy, open, test, and return. And, thankfully, my cable was bad, so I'm going to assume my TV and audio bar work just fine. Whoot! Least pricey link in the chain.

What makes something "cold cream"? As opposed to just face cream?

I've taken to using straight jojoba oil on my face, hands, hair, whatever.

I've been using coconut oil as a body moisturizer in the shower. It's awesome.

I use baby oil in the shower and it is chea and keeps my very dry skin super-smooth and non-cracked. I use an under-eye cream at night--whatever has retinol and is on sale at CVS, basically. Tinted moisturizer during the day.

Wow, Consuela, that DW post your referred to is very damning.

Also, I'm startled by the number of people saying "But how will I violate copyright now??" with some sort of air of innocence, like they were owed free TV somehow. I know when I'm downloading someone's IP that it could go away any time now, and I'm not really asking for general sympathy in the case of its loss.

I have no one true cosmetic except Dr Bronner's peppermint soap, but I'll note for people with dry skin that my mother has beautiful skin at 85, after more than 50 years of using Ar-Ex moisturizers [link]

Jojoba oil. Best thing ever.

Yeah. I mean, it's kind of stupid that there's no way to access stuff worldwide legally when it's released, but I do at least recognize the implications of what I'm doing when I ahem. I'm fairly judicious, for the most part.

I swear, I've read more people complaining about a loss of access to copyrighted materials than complaining about the loss of a tool for legal filesharing (and most of the legal complaints were here).

Jilli, is there a particular jojoba oil, or can I just swing by the Vitamin Shoppe and pick up whatever?

I think I have an excuse for new jeans now...but I do so hate jeans shopping. I wish the cut I like came in black or dark wash, but not so Lucky.

Just pick up whatever. I think the bottle I currently have is Desert Essence, but I've used various brands.
