Excellent customer service, emailed them yesterday about the hand cream and they're sending me another box gratis. Got back to me this morning, best $15 I spent in a min

Yes, these are good sizes except the hand cream and the ck perfume. The brow shaper is reg size, the hair stuff is prob half size of a regular bottle (I see Target actually sells smaller versions of the hair stuff) but it's perfect for me to actually try new stuff without the hassle of if I don't like it. It should be good for me a month or 2 for sure.

I LOOOOOOVEEEEE this! I actually did my hair in a teal as well, but I didn't bleach it, so it's like a tint. I suck at these things.

Bleach is a big step, I understand your hesitation

Where's the men's hygeine thread? Not sure where to post this. 30/Male/Bronx, Had acne as a teen, and adult. Mom's has adult acne too.

Been using proactive plus (latest version of proactive) and it makes me look like I have a glow and clean, however, it doesn't cure acne. It cost 44 dollars a month (can modify to cost 34 a month, but still ...), so it's crazy to keep it up, I switching to prescriptions cause it's only 6 dollars a month and may have better results. Aczone in morning, Tazorac at night.

I have oily and sensitive skin, Half Black, Half Puerto Rican. What's the best face wash I should use, would suspect that's important. Thinking either Black soap or Regular Neutrogena, but those are two way different products?

wanna try something new. I'm gonna get a sew-in that'll probably be 24 inches (yes gawd!) but want a different color. I want ombre but don't know which 2 colors I should do. Another thing, since I'm leaving my hair out on the top, I'd want the color to not stand out but I don't want it the color of my natural hair(1b). any ideas?

More red tho. Its warm. If you didn't work in an office I'd say black and navy, another warm tone that's striking but not too wild.

how high do you think the color should start? or should I get that color on top and get a lighter color at the bottom?

I was thinking something like this but not sure if the red would be too much for you.
