Re: Coate's Tea Tree, Sandalwood, Lime, Rose, Almond & Laven

i would suggest keeping the cream in its tube rather than transfer to a tub. it will keep longer.

qsc is a high cushion product with clay in it. don't think you get as close with it. i think glycerin will get you slicker and a little closer

getting used to the new smf2 look

i'm having a little trouble getting used to the new look of smf. the old website made it easy to tell if a new comment was added to an existing post. i am having trouble seeing if a new comment has been added to a post. am i missing something? thanks

i noticed the difference in the packs but all is for not cause i didn't win the bid. i am excited however, i won two packs of the light brigades. i haven't received them yet but am wondering if the packaging and nostalgia will prevent me from using them.
