Hey Ladies,
Just have to chime in here.. I was a counter manager for Elizabeth Arden when I was in treatment. Lucky me!! I had to try and sell cosmetics to women whilst barfing in the trashcan behind the counter (no, not really) but I was bald allover!! I became quite adept at penciling in those eyebrows and matching my makeup to my scarf (I refused to wear a wig). I did quite well as the local cancer center was just down the street and I got all the patients after their treatments (made the other counters *green* with envy...(not really) LOL
Seriously though...there is a great book called "Dont Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without me" by Paula Bagoun. Its a "tell all" book about cosmetics and the industry.
I hate to see my friends here spend money on stuff that is mostly hype and can be purchased reasonably!

Much love to you,Marcia

PS Elizabeth Ardens 8 hour cream (the original red gel) IS about the best healer,moisturizer in the WORLD!
