[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 180831"] I did a beauty make over on myself a few years ago...best thing I ever did! I had a big birthday recently and did another mini one...again...FUN! So...I have IDEAS! I am using John Frieda HAIR gloss in the colors. I have used them before. They are awesome and you can even get them in the grocery store. It does come in RED...but it is a little harder to find in this color. I would consider getting your hair either professional dyed or finding a really good at home color. You probably would want something with some shades of red in it. As you probably know, the older we get (know from experience) we usually need to go a little lighter overall. The red gloss will help to keep the color fresh. The shampoo and conditioner are helpful...but the gloss is better. The John Frieda products are really good and people have told me their products to stop frizzy hair are also very good. My favorite shampoos and conditioners are: Biolage (very good) and Aveda (excellent and all natural). I go back and forth between the two. My favorite item to keep my feet smooth is a product made by Origins. It comes in a green tube...it is gel like and similar to vasoline...only stronger. When I run out of it, I use vasoline in the mean time. I find that the vasoline alone (for me) is not as good. I needed a little "extra" strength product now and again! (I think that is 'cause I like to where sandals alot!) That pediatrician Egg thing is great as well. Between all these items...I don't have to get a pedicure as often. For facial cleaners: I use Oil of Olay and Roc...go back and forth between both. My New facial cream/eye cream: ROC (just as good in my humble opinion as the exp. stuff I bought at the derm's office not too long ago) You can buy ROC products at the drug store. Teeth Whitening I would try the Whitening Strips first and see how that goes. Believe it or not...there is a place in my local mall whitening teether for $100! Bottom line...if you want to go to the dentist, compare prices. Check the BriteSmile website for discount coupons. Also, there is a toothpaste called GoSmile that some folks like...might be esp. good after the whitening strips (not sure). WISHING YOU LOADS OF FUN/JOY...all good things! A good place to get ideas is The Sephora Shop...esp. if you get ahold of a REALLY good salesperson. I once got the ear of the manager...it was GREAT. p.s. EW WAS that RL product a perfume? One of my favorite perfumes is Ralph Lauren BLUE in the blue bottle! I'll check out WARM in the PINK bottle next time I'm in the store! [/QUOTE]
