" Whats your favorite Perfume name?"

11 responses

msmargo My favorite perfume is Lauren by Ralph Lauren. The scent is to die for and the bottle is very pretty too. It is a reddish brown with a gold crown type cap. It is rather hard to get. I've been wearing it for almost 30 years. I love it.

msmargo Hi Glow. I use Roc too. I use their daytime moisturizer, their retinol serum, their night time moisturizer, and their eye cream. I have tried other more expensive products, but I keep coming back to Roc. I love that I can buy it at my local drug store.

msmargo You know your bf the best, but maybe you are reading too much into his parting words. Was this unusual for him? Would he normally call you when he is out of town? My bf has this maddening/great ability to forge things. We will have blow out fights and he will...

Do you pluck or shave your eyebrows?

dorisday1971 @dorisday1971 (5657) • Philippines 5 Mar 09

Plucking the eyebrows is painful while shaving it needs maintenance. I personally can't hold the pain of plucking, so I just shave my eyebrows keep it nice. How about you, do you prefer plucking your eyebrows or shaving it?

msmargo I personally don't know any Indian people, however I've read about people living in apartments having real problems with the smells associated with Indian cooking. I imagine it has to do with the spices used.

msmargo I like the smell of sulfer when you first light a match. I smoked for a year in my early twenties because of this smell. I don't smoke anymore but I do like to burn candles, so I get that smell whenever I light a candle.
