So far, the vast majority of the strong-scented stuff I've encountered have been mostly made in Europe stuff (France and Italy), even stuff meant for babies and kids, which to me is hard to believe. <br /><br />I wish Momopuri would offer trial sets for you to test-drive their stuff, like DHC and FANCL, or Aqualabel even. This way, you don't have to commit to huge full sizes when your skin might or might not react well to the stuff. Would you want me to send you a sample bottle of the Momopuri Lotion Rich or Milk?D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12606515472124254336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239774207937548463.post-7169857331347127222023-11-29T00:42:35.391-07:002023-11-29T00:42:35.391-07:00Hi Julia,

Scented hair products are much easier to use for me, although I hate when I like a product, but it comes with a strong scent, especially one that I don't like (looking at you, highly praised Garnier Fructis heat protecting oil lol)Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06615046738488357378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239774207937548463.post-23964155702493189412023-09-03T17:35:08.231-06:002023-09-03T17:35:08.231-06:00Hi,

She reads through, leaves margin comments, writes up some feedback, asks questions, points out loop holes, etc. Then 2-3 days after submission, we meet and chat about the comments and feedback she left, and I have my chance to ask her questions, etc.<br /><br />I didn't like exercising either, because I have weak joints and most exercises are high impact. So my doc recommended pilates that's low to zero impact, and it's been great! I never thought I'd like to exercise but pilates really changed how I think of exercising. I used to go only once a week for 1hr, but has been trying to up the ante to twice a week for the past month.<br /><br />That's what writing is for, really, YOU! Write for yourself first and foremost, I think. <br /><br />Sigh...I wonder where the wealthy folks think they can go if this planet went to sh*t ^.^"<br /><br />Take care.<br />D.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12606515472124254336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6239774207937548463.post-28441937980109881772023-08-23T23:29:12.023-06:002023-08-23T23:29:12.023-06:00Hi,

This summer has been crazy hot where I am too.
