remedies (preferably home remedies) for puffy eyes and face??

likkeee from not sleeping well and/or crying?

didn't know if cucumbers, strawberries, tea bags, etc on eyes actually worked or if those are just old wives tales!!

4/10/2010 11:54:14 PM

I know that there is something in all of those things that are supposed to help with the puffiness, but I don't really know...I've never had that problem really...

Maybe try a cold pack? I have heard that works too.

4/10/2010 11:55:54 PM

yea mine is from crying and not sleeping and i feel like its going to take fucking forever for my eyes to not look ridiculous. i really don't want to go to school with puffy squinty eyes on monday!

i'm going to try maybe all of the above and see if anything works lol.

try anything cold! like a bag of frozen peas or something.
the problem with that is if youre like me-it will get rid of the swelling but itll make your

and put hemorrhoid cooling cream on your eyes/face



drink lots of water.

i read recently that netti pots are good to reduce puffiness and dark circles under eyes. you can get a netti pot from any pharmacy.

4/11/2010 7:37:17 PM

ohhh awesome. thanks

my face doesn't look AS bad today as i expected. hopefully tomorrow only i will be able to notice lol

4/11/2010 7:38:29 PM

i might try it myself this week since i'll be traveling/flying next week and i tend to get sick while i'm away, especially for work. it's supposed to be very good for the sinuses and pressure in your face. i get bad dark circles and bags under my eyes all the time (even with 12 hours of sleep) so i'm interested to see if it works for me.

4/11/2010 7:41:14 PM

same i freaking hate dark circles

but i get them too. and same deal - even if i sleep. i think stress probably also has something to do with it. but whenever i can't figure something out i always blame it on stress haha

4/12/2010 10:46:28 AM

i bought this for my trip to FL and i'm scared to wear something that shows my arms but FUCK IT I DONT CAAAARE

4/12/2010 10:46:39 AM

all you need is a little pashmina ... it gets a bit breezy/chilly at night, so you'll appreciate having a stylish option for arm coverage

4/12/2010 10:47:47 AM

i have a black one i'll bring so you can borrow if you want

4/12/2010 10:48:21 AM

^^hrm, where to find a pashmina around here....

i have pretty much run out of time to order one online and have it get here by thursday

^YAY

and if you decide you like LunaK's pashmina, you can purchase your own at Target http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/180-5508887-2473551?asin=B001V81EGY&AFID=Froogle_df&LNM=|B001V81EGY&CPNG=&ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001

4/12/2010 10:49:34 AM

you ladies are so good to me

we're gonna have so much fun

4/12/2010 10:50:15 AM

mines nice and you can tie it around your back so that you don't have to deal with it falling off

4/12/2010 10:50:26 AM

I got this from Anthropologie in on Friday and I <3 it soooo muchhhhh (ps the Manhattan one was crazy huge)



I also got this from Ann Taylor loft:

ladies, if you are looking for a little black dress that's gonna make you look down right skinny, this is the one:

http://www.express.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=25851&parentCategoryId=2&categoryId=22&subCategoryId=22&user_att_value=Email&user_att_name=Interest&Mppg=0&Mcatpn=category&Mpper=3&Mcatp=cat_2&Mcat=22&Mpos=34&Mrsaa=*&Mcatn=Dresses+%26+Jumpsuits&Mpg=SEARCH%2BNAV&Mrsavf=*

I bought this on Friday for an event coming up. It makes me look very, very slim in the waist. Not that I'm large, but I have my lil pudge. BIG FAN of this dress.

Express also had a ton of jeans on sale. I got a great pair for 24, the dress for 70, and then 30% off since I spent over $75. ftmfw.

4/12/2010 12:04:18 PM

Also, Ann Taylor is going to consolidate all their stores into Ann Taylor Lofts. So, there might be some good close out sales coming up soon.

those band aid dresses look amazing on. I almost bought one for my birthday


Also, speaking of dresses. I saw a friend of mine in a dress the other day and ive been looking for one in a similar cut. I just found one and think it would look great on da body. What you yall think?





[Edited on April 12, 2010 at 2:13 PM. Reason : dress]

4/12/2010 2:07:43 PM

^^ That is good information to know.

Ok tww. Help me decide on my one piece. I'm pretty much sold on this one line "La Blanca" by Rod Beattie. I'm pretty short, with an hourglass figure. These are what I have been looking at:





I'm kind of leaning towards the fringe one, but it seems kind of slutty haha

[Edited on April 12, 2010 at 2:15 PM. Reason : caret]

4/12/2010 2:14:26 PM

i like #1

4/12/2010 2:15:53 PM

Yo we have that black and white LaBlanca suit at Saks You can at least try it on and see what you think!

4/12/2010 2:16:57 PM

i like the second one

and

is that what the style dress i posted is called Jen?

4/12/2010 2:17:01 PM

lol it's shutters not band-aids

Tadashi is famous for that shutter style

4/12/2010 2:22:09 PM

haha

i don't care what they're called at this point - all i know is that they look fucking awesome

4/12/2010 2:24:18 PM

I'm looking at one for my gala in August. It's sooo pretty and very flattering

Let's see if I can find it!

OH HERE IT IS!

The back

omg that dress is gorgeous diva

4/12/2010 2:26:06 PM

Yea girl....I go by it everyday at work and touch it hahaha

IT WILL BE MINE!

4/12/2010 2:27:12 PM

ok ladies, which ones are the best?











[Edited on April 12, 2010 at 2:28 PM. Reason : ]

4/12/2010 2:27:51 PM

by far number 1

but I'll let you get 4 as well

[Edited on April 12, 2010 at 2:29 PM. Reason : e]

4/12/2010 2:28:46 PM

OMG Diva...I love that dress!!! How do you hold your knockers up in that? What would you use? i want to wear a one shoulder dress one day.

4/12/2010 2:28:57 PM

haha prayers and a very nice bra

The dress actually has a lot of support in it, and it's not thin/skimpy, so a normal strapless could work. I've fit a couple ladies for it that bought the dress for upcoming events.

4/12/2010 2:30:09 PM

greenjay, i'm loving that website!! have you ordered from there before? just wondering what kind of quality it is, and how easy it is to return something if it doesnt fit? we have a black-tie affair on may 1 and i may want to order one of those dresses!

4/12/2010 2:32:57 PM

well, the ones i have posted are clearance, non-return only but the girls of fatshionista have said nice things about zaftique.

i really like number one because i measured and it might actually be shoe-length on me (i am like 5'10 or so), but i don't go to formal things very much. i like the way #2 and 3 would display my rack, but i think i want #1 and #4... i dont know how i am going to convince hubby that i need #4 too though!

4/12/2010 2:39:05 PM

Have you all been to myshape.com?

it's a great site where you put in your measurements and they scour the internets to find clothing that would work with your shape/size. It's pretty cool!

You have to be referred I believe so let me know if interested

4/12/2010 2:40:06 PM

Ladies, I need your opinion.

I'm going to be going shopping for the summer soon.

Swim boxers: Hot or not?

4/12/2010 2:42:25 PM

on him...hot

I love when I see guys come into our store and check those out! Too much fun.

4/12/2010 2:43:20 PM

I could wear them.

4/12/2010 2:44:14 PM

Diva, that site looks awesome. Could you refer me?

And Gronke, I like those trunks for vacation ... but not regular swimwear in Raleigh. Definitely best for Miami, Europe or the Caribbean.

4/12/2010 2:44:26 PM

So I can't wear them to the outer banks?

Don't make me post photos of me in my bike shorts.
