@heartsmyface  lol, if only. 😢  it's a shame cuz I actually kind of liked the campfire smell, for a bit...it reminds me of when I was a kid camping.  but then I have to remember that it's not good for the health.

@heartsmyface!! 👀 A cougar warning?!! 😳 Ohhhh, yes, the air quality from the wildfires. 😔 Wildfires all up and down the Pacific Northwest and impacting air quality all around. So sorry. 

[heartsmyface]

@itsfi   Yeah a cougar attacked a hikers dog two blocks from our house two days ago.  It’s still at large.  We’ve had a very bad couple weeks on the trail.  A hiker has been missing for two weeks, a bear swiped a jogger and the cougar.  
yeah it’s not safe to breathe outside without a filtered mask right now.  we’ve got every air purifier we own running trying to get the main areas of our house down below 50ppm. We’re at 76 everywhere and 35 in the bedroom 

[itsfi]

Oh no. That cougar was so close to your home @heartsmyface. Yikes. Good to hear you’re able to get the air quality in your bedroom and home down. 

[heartsmyface]

@itsfi   Yeah don’t let this get back to my hubby but for once I’m glad he’s a tech Weenie/ hoarder and bought every air purifier he could find during last years fires.  It’s been a life saver that he has PM detectors so we could locate all the areas of the house that smoke was getting in.  I’m currently sitting in my makeshift gym with an air purifier pilfered from the kitchen and watching the numbers go down.   Good to workout now:)

Look at those tech gadgets! All I understand is the temperature reading and the air quality index @heartsmyface. Oh, and the “moderately polluted” warning. That’s great you guys have air purifiers. Really helpful. Good thinking on the mister’s part and nice decision on your part to let him hoard ‘em all! 😃

[treestar86]

@heartsmyface haha, how rude of them!!  I got someone else's order once, it was weird...I didn't know what to do, lol.  you could always put in an extra sample and send it to the person? lol  😁

but ooh, that looks like some good stuff... 🤤

[heartsmyface]

@treestar86   It’s addressed to me!  I have no idea who’s order this is supposed to be or I would be hand delivering it.

When you have some purchases to make, but haven't seen a GWP that catches your eye.

[MsMAP]

I hate when I try to put clear gloss over any kind of lip color and it ends up all over the doe foot applicator

[SportyGirly125]

@MsMAP I hate that too.  I usually wipe it off with a paper towel or use my fingers to apply the gloss on top

[Titian06]

YES!  @greeneyedgirl107. I finally broke down and placed a Sephora order last night because I couldn't wait anymore.  So what happens, today's active promo code is for the new Glow Recipe Papaya Sorbet Smoothing Enzyme Cleansing Balm & Makeup Remover 3.4 oz/ 100 mL ; something I've been wanting to try!

[itsfi]

Ack!! I feel like this happens to me all the time @Titian06! A promo code for a DS skincare product I’ve held off on purchasing always seems to pop up either the day after I place my order or sometimes even hours after I’ve ordered. This happens even when I hold off a few days from when I planned to purchase. Lol. I’ve really got this timing down, haven’t I? 😆 

Hope the GR cleansing balm works out for you. I have really been enjoying the balm. 😃

[treestar86]

ugh that sucks @Titian06 !!  I've been wanting to try that too, but the sample is really tiny and not sure I want to bother...

[greeneyedgirl107]

@Titian06 I'm so sorry to hear that!  It's doubly sad when it's a GWP you've actually been wanting!!!

[sonnydee]

@greeneyedgirl107brow wiz almost got me today but then I remembered, I already have full size backups...😒

 

[greeneyedgirl107]

@sonnydee Good for you for remembering!!!  I've gotten fooled by stuff like that before.

My beauty pet peeve today deals with natural deodorant & bees! I have been trying out Aurelia brand natural, aluminum free deodorant because it came in my Liberty London Advent calendar. I'm all for trying new, more natural deodorants! Anyways, I thought I'd take it for a test run today to go watch my son's soccer scrimmage. You guys! Bees were buzzing me and initially I didn't think too much of it. I don't mind bees, and am in awe of all they provide us with. But this started getting crazy! They seemed to be dive bombing me and you know what?? They were buzzing my underarms!! The deodorant has eucalyptus, lavender, peppermint and tea tree essential oils. Did that attract them? So all the soccer parents...who were widely spaced out due to social distancing requirements saw me flapping my arms around in circles and running about. One yelled down the way to comment on my dancing skills. Ughhhhh. Natural deodorant fail. 

[Samtian]

@bem564 Ooh yikes! But yes that definitely attracted them. That and any other fragrance you might have been wearing.

[MsMAP]

This is more being mad at myself but I sooo often forget eyelid primer before doing something extra🙄

[sonnydee]

When you STILL have to deal with breakouts but also find a SILVER eyebrow hair. Only one. But STILL!
