A look for a long pole light bulb changing kit brought me to Sunday Costco, a crowded place that I normally avoid shopping during the weekend. Entering the festively decorated mall, I parked my car a bit far in the packed parking lot. The sun was shining, people hustling by. Soon I was inside the warm-heated store, greeted by the lady at the entrance, as well as the faint fragrance from the fresh Christmas wreaths in the corner. After being told that Costco does not carry the long pole I was looking for, I strolled around aimlessly, taking a box of eggs into the big empty cart. I have availed myself of a close-by Costco in the vicinity of my workplace during the weekday, and nothing seems to be on my current shopping list. With reluctance, I looked at others' carts fully stacked with boxes after boxes of merchandise around me, increasingly unsure if I would wait in line to just check out a box of eggs. Just then, at the end of the aisle, a young lady from a beauty product stand smilingly beckoned at me, with a sample in her hand. I approached her, telling her that I have been using the skin care products purchased years ago. But a further conversation revealed that they also carry an organic anti-aging skin revitalization product for my age. She patiently explained to me how it works, and how it differs from Lancome or other high-end products. Good as it sounds, it by far exceeds my budget. Seeing through my hesitation, she added that I could return the product within three months if they are not effective.
So in my empty cart, a box of around $250 skin care product was sitting next to a box of $6 eggs, making the long line waiting for checkout a bit worthwhile. This is the most luxurious skin care product I have ever bought for myself. Is this the beginning of my attempt to rejuvenate the skin I used to be so proud of, or is it just a wakening consciousness of treating myself better?
The box is still sitting in my dresser, untouched, waiting for the owner to decide if it shall be returned or opened for use.
你種蘆薈嗎?如果沒有可以去種幾顆,用蘆薈汁擦臉有很好的美容作用,不過最關鍵的還是身體好,身體好的人臉色和皮膚就容易好,隻是塗抹往往有點治標不治本。前段時間因為空氣汙染,吸進了很多廢氣,我臉上馬上很明顯地多出了很多斑點,到現在還沒有消退。┭┮﹏┭┮
每當點開熟悉的網友,發現“人去樓空“,心裏總是一咯噔,和群兄一樣感到失落。
徒兒這次也讓師傅的心一咯噔了,謝天謝地,你又開門了!
你師傅也忙亂,但從不關門,就是怠慢來客了,今天罰自己外出吃一頓!;)
全家聖誕新年快樂!
(InfiniteAloe Gold)沒用過,那麽貴,應該有一定效果的:)) 用!:))
問好暖冬,周末快樂!
暖冬周末快樂!
我跟聞香一樣,也是用Estee lauder 的Advanced Night Repair 用了十多年,回中國送禮總要帶上八、九瓶(中瓶$100 左右)隻是日漸漲價有點送不起了。
我現在用的是十塊錢一大盒的那種,用了兩年也沒用完,跟你們一比我算是低端了 :)
一直有點懷疑:護膚品,不管多少錢,真的有用嗎,或者真的無害嗎?
個人覺得心情睡眠,鍛煉按摩或者自製有機護膚品是上策。
這錢花得值,盡管有點貴。就當是入門學費吧!
其實每個人的皮膚不同,應該先去征求護膚專家的意見,查查自己的皮膚特性,然後再定奪一個合適自己的護膚產品。是關用上了護膚品,那個牌子一旦選定了就不能輕易換了。
護膚品沒有貴賤之分隻有是否合適而已。德國有個超市的品牌叫什麽Q10的大家都去瘋搶,我也去湊熱鬧看看,天啊!售貨員跟我說要等兩年,牛不!5歐元居然贏大牌,且長年有貨。
他們的依據就是來自非商業的評判機構的對比和實驗數據,得出的結論而讓消費者瘋狂。
網絡太強大了,知識已經武裝到牙齒了。看來又要去進修消費學了。

值嗎 :))
菲兒說,“覺得要皮膚好,還是吃好,睡好”,有道理。我再補充兩點:要多喝水,多開心。。
我沒有試過這一款。平時有護膚,但是感覺是自我安慰罷了。不過就是裝腔作勢,也決心向精致女人靠攏:-)
