I thot so too when I so all the different colors of nail envy
so I just went with the one you showed some pages back.

girl Amazon has been my newest friend in a while now
everything there seems to be cheaper than elsewhere
as a matter of fact when I got my nail envy it was a little over $9 free ship so you can imagine.

still not told me how to paste pics!

Gamine:
I think any black soap would do.
We currently use Village Fresh.

Bentonite clay [b][/b]won't be sold at your local beauty store,
I don't think. But hey don't worry about it.
what does this do?

jovi:
@ Mad-max,can we get mama lotion in nigeria?
@ jovi
have you used mama lotion before?
because I used it in the past and this stuff literally burnt my face beyond recognition in the 1 week I used it
needless to say I couldnt go to work in those days I had to return it and gave a nasty feedback
its a shame it didnt work for me though since I read so many wonderful reviews on it

a bit of background if you have sensitive/soft/combination skin like me
Ill advise you to save your money and dont buy it

but if you've used it before and it works just fine
disregard my rant  grin

I also forgot to mention the KESSA
its a form of exfoliating glove I use
I got one from the spa
and ladies that stuff is ahhhhhmaazing

you literally see the dead cells flake off your skin
I use my regular sponge and rinse thrice and i add little black soap on the kessa and the stuff doesnt even foam but you need to see what comes off my body after "supposedly taking a bath with regular soap and sponge"
I swear it scary grin grin grin

but its so gentle even to use on the face at least I use mine on my face but with little or no pressure though.

I saw one  off amazon and it was about $12 but luckily I think mine was like 500 bucks at the spa


heres the link of exactly what I have here

@ madlady
I am loving the O.P.I thank you very much
before my OPI arrived tho I got this recipe that meditterean women use
crushed garlic in nail polish allow to ferment for 7 days and apply(men that poo smells funky lools)
but it works and I can live with it,so I alternate it with the OPI and my nails are as hard as ever
really grateful thanks

FamilyRe: How Would I Forgive My Extended Family Members? by browncocos(f): 4:35pm On Sep 16, 2010
I suggest she should tell her husband
to lessen the burden shes  feeling (a secret shared )
thank God none of those girls got pregnant ,abortions and all it wouldve been double sad!
the woman shouldnt feel guilty though its easier said than done
she just needs to forgive herself since she feels she has failed as a mom,
forgive  the boys and pray for her daughters
so that they dont carry the baggage of abuse into their marriages
BusinessRe: Is It Possible To Send Western Union To Yourself? by browncocos(f): 4:28pm On Sep 16, 2010
Yes it is very possible
I sent money to myself while in the U.S
and cashed in Nigeria some days later
It went hitch free I even doubt if the cashier noticed it was in the same name
and yes of course you need your I.D and the test answer and money transfer control number MTCN etc

^^^^^
like i always say
your past is your past
be prepared to deal with it and face the consequences
because its going nowhere
period!

if the guys dumps her if she spills the beans at this crucial stage its not necessarily because of her past but because she was dishonest about her past
you simply cant ignore your past no matter how squeaky clean or dirty it was
deal with it.

[b]Her major mistake is she should hv opened up about her past from the beginning or say nothing instead of lying. Just a simple "I hv had a very rough past in relationships I am ashamed to talk about". If the guy wants to know more, then that's his cup of tea.[/b]


i totally agree

Poster, what kind of a person keeps a xrated video of another school mate for four yrs. That's kinda perveted too. Who is the poster to judge that the girl is not good enough for the friend when the friend has chosen the girl as the one he wants. The heart works in mysterious ways. I can decide to fall in love with an ashewo. My friends better keep their mouths shut if they know anything. But I deserve to know what I am going into b4 I even start.
lol thats funny! grin grin

IyaBasira:
I hope this gets to you before you spill the beans but I just wanted to give you my advice.

To be honest, the re- virgin operation thing is not new. But it doesn't mean she is a bad person. She may have found a guy she really loves and theres something you said earlier that pained me. You said and I quote , There are some good girls out there better deserving of him than her, one of them ought to be blessed with a quality guy like him, NOT her. What exactly is a good girl? Is it one who has never slept with a man or is it a girl whose heart is truly pure? People say that God chose Mary because she was a virgin and its not true. It was because she had a pure heart and a sound mind. So in the world we live in today, who is truly good? It all depends on your definition.
She may have done awful things but please don't be so quick to judge. My suggestion is that you speak to HER . Be very honest and straightforward with her. Her doing the re- virgin operation might not necessarily be that she is capable of murder as someone said earlier. That is a girl trying to fix a mistake she once made. She probably feels that her virginity ( which is now gone)  was the only thing she could have given to her guy and she's not going to tell anyone how messed up she feels inside. You know how Nigerians are , they'll say "OH! Didn't you know when you were doing it ?"
Everyone tells you to move on but no one explains to you how to forgive yourself. You might see the whole re- virgin things as an act but I see it as a girl admitting that she messed up - not to her bf because she is just too scared. She is definitely not going about it the right way but thats why I said please speak to her first. And depending on how you structure your words, she might have a change of heart, who knows.
I am not justifying her actions in any way, however.
If you can convince her to come clean then no harm done. But be sure to ask your friend how things are going with her a while later. If you are really good friends then he will tell you about her coming clean (if she has). If she hasn't then feel free to tell him.

And please, please, I beg of you, do NOT show him the videos,  Put his feelings into consideration. Showing him will just traumatize him for life and this will just make things extremely difficult for the next girl who comes along. You said he already has trust issues and the video will not help matters. I know you want to look out for your friend but please follow my advice.
I totally believe in giving second chances and that she might have changed.
she fall my hand as i read about the operation thingy
this goes to show how far she is willing to cover her tracks
why not just open up and tell the man the truth
what's the worse that will happen,he wont marry again , so is that the end of the world?
The truth shall set you free!

I know a man that married a real ,confirmed "ashewo" back in the days and that worked for them
the woman  changed for good and she told him all about her sexcapades et al

I am sorry I sound kinda hard but I told my husband all he needed/had to know about my past (palatable or not)
when he was sure he was ready to marry me,I lay it all out in the open and asked if he was ready to go ahead or not.

This is mos def a marriage thats going to be based on false hood especially if she's willing to go for an operation to re-virgin herself(whatever that means!)
