I haven't received the email yet but man I wish I had more sense in my pickings! I doubt anything I ordered would be at risk of selling out before it gets to be my turn. But since then I've remembered several things I "need" that I might not be able to get. I had settled in with a Diet Dr Pepper to build a wish list, not play a round of Supermarket Sweep! If you need a friend who is a quick thinker in an emergency I'm not her. :lol:
Omgosh supermarket sweep LOL this was me too. I woke up late all relaxed, propped up my pillow and panda stuffie for nice neck support while I took a quick look, and then suddenly…. “Wait… what?!” Fly into action, panda smacks the ceiling, throw mouth guard on the floor, yank phone charger cord out of the wall, hair up in scrunchie, hold full bladder, and start to speed scroll. Definitely the fastest I’ve ever shopped and purchased in my life.

We hadn’t even seen most of it, so it wasn’t like I knew what I wanted. (I supposedly had a whole week to figure all that out!) so it was more like… SHOES scroll scroll scroll yes yes yes no wait definitely not remove from bag yes yes yes wow those are ugly yes yes shake out sore thumb switch to pointer finger, BEAUTY scroll scroll scroll add add do fast likely incorrect math and realize gift set is actually more than buying full price individual products switch to left hand, LUNYA swear because they don’t have the cotton PJs, SUNGLASSES add to bag add to bag add to bag add to bag add to bag. PLACE ORDER. Start again… CLOTHES… HANDBAGS… PLACE ORDER. Go to ThePurseForum… feel dizzy… pee in bed.

Oh my GOSH! Literally had me laughing out loud! :lol::lol::lol::lol:
 
I hear you! Have you tried the Dr Dennis Gross LED face mask? That thing is awesome! You only need 3 minutes to get the result 1 time a day. I use it with the Alpha Beta peel (also awesome for improving and maintaining skin texture). I've had the mask for 3+ years and use it all the time. There's a bundle in the sale this year.

Also, they're having a sale on the brand website--20-25% off, ends today.

Review from my fave, Byrdie (even if I forget how to spell it all the time!):

Ok read the review. I’m interested, how do you clean it? In theory, I could use it, my husband could use it and maybe my 17 year old for her acne?
But I don’t know if devices like that are recommended for someone so young.
 
Thoughts on the Max Mara coats in the Anniversary Sale? Worth it or better to wait?
I love Max Mara! I think both are a good choice with the navy one being a true classic. It’s not difficult to find them on sale. I often check both their site and Bloomingdales. The navy one is on my wishlist so we shall see. The quality is excellent and worth the price IMO.

Wipe it down with a cloth or alcohol wipe. The inside has a rubber feel to it so your face isn't touching the LEDs.

I can tell you it 100% works for acne. I had adult acne (crazy!) a few years ago and that was one reason I bought it. It has the red and blue lights--the blue lights are for acne. I wish they made this when I was younger because I could have really used it!

The only con I have is that I bought this in an earlier model and it had a horrible head strap. I gave up on it and now I just lay down on the bed (what a great excuse) and chill for 3 minutes. :P

I also have the crappy strap model and enjoy 3 minutes of relaxation lying down. Think it helps with skin circulation or something because I look more refreshed when using it regularly. Convenient enough to use daily (~5 days a week).

I tried some other brands and the straps are all awful. There was one in last year's sale that I wanted (not sure why, but I think it was just because it was new!) but when I tried it on it totally squished my face and I could tell the way the nose piece was shaped that it would leave an impression when I took it off. That was a no-go for me! :lol:
 
Great reminder. As an Icon surprisingly bumped to Ambassador this year, these are definitely first world problems. I was working and missed the excitement yesterday. I scanned the first page of the preview and quickly got back to work but I'm sure it must have been a fun time. I've learned not to say there's nothing that interests me this year because I say that almost every year and as the sale progresses, it's like they fine tune and either add things I do end up liking or things I didn't think I'd like turn out better than I thought, so we'll just see :smile:
Did we have the same Monday?! I was busy at work yesterday (only person in the office) and I managed to slice open two of my fingers on random metal objects in the office, ugh. I quickly added a few things to WL and my bag but was became distracted by some other office dumpster fire I had to put out and by the time I was free to browse the app again, Nordstrom shutterdown! Happy for everyone whose orders were honored though and I’m looking forward to your try on pics!
