attn: your help and/or suggestions are needed! i am having the worst time with my nails lately. they are peeling really badly at the top, breaking easily, im getting a lot of hang-nails, and overall they are dry! and with the weather changin, ohh..its only gonna be getting worse.
the first product at the top is a sally hansen nail fortifier (protein) that i had bought a while ago, it seemed to work pretty good but they say to use a couple coats every couple days and that just made the polish all bubbly after a while.
so recently i bought the third product at the top, sally hansens nail strengthener. and i am so unhappy with the product, i just want to return it and get my $4.00 back. seriously. it hasnt helped with anything. in fact, the polish starts chipping off within a day.
so...i was thinking i should have bought the opi nail envy in the first place. i wanted to save myself some money, but in the end, it hasnt really mattered because im not getting the results i want with the two products i did buy.
i did add a few products to my beauty list: three by opi, nail defense by orly, and millonails strengthener by essie.
what would you suggest? have you used a really good nail treatment on your nails?
im in dire need to fix this nail situation! i love keeping up with my nails. and i love when they look nice, it makes me feel more feminine. =]
<33! thanks in advance

hello.
i would just like to share how excited i am that bath and body works will be selling their discontinued products online now. :]
fragrances i love: cool citrus basil, water blossom ivy, rice flower and shea, and white tea and ginger. mmm..a few of my favorites.
i do have to say though, im really upset they dont have peony on this list because it is one of my all time favorite products of anything i use. the fragrance of the body splash lasts forever.
and lastly, its kinda funny they are selling these discontinued products at full price, because during their semi-annual sale, these lotions and sprays are $3. hmmmpphh..
my question for you:
any products you've adored that have been discontinued? not just at bath and body but anywhere.
<3.

hi. :]
i would just like to share my dilemma with you all.
lately ive been stressing myself out because even with working, im really low on money. and by the low on money i mean, i have none. this means, what id really like and need for myself, has to be put on hold....for i dont know how long.
unfortunately all at once, i feel like i need a total makeover! at this time, all im thinking is that i need a haircut & style! [my hair is lifeless], and new color [hmmphh..i need a change!] new makeup is a must. and new fall clothes..[theres soooo many cute pieces out there!]...
you know that feeling when you start something new and everything feels so fresh.. i want to feel that right about now..
so i ask: how do you ladies deal?

hello ladies. i was just wondering if any of you could be of any help. im looking for a gift to bring to a bachelorette party this weekend. the bride to be is a chilhood best friend of mine. and im stuck! its even harder to decide since i dont have much money. i know usually people give things that specifically make the bride feel sexy [lingerie//sleepwear] or maybe fun little toys for her and her husband. unfortunately, the few cute things ive seen on victoriassecret.com have been rather expensive. :[ i was thinking of getting a cute pj set from target. maybe a pink or coral color. or maybe ivory and light blue. just a small tank top and shorts. any other ideas? (remember im on a tight budget! around $40 or less.) thank you!
<33.
