Revisit a classic perfume Fragrance is a powerful thing -- one whiff of a particular scent can take you back to another place and time. Love's Baby Soft by Dana, $9.99 is a classic scent that many of us grew up with because, well, it's inexpensive and teen/tween friendly. Launched in 1974, the familiar pink perfume is classified as "a refined, gentle floral fragrance" that boasts a blend of florals but for some, one spritz is tantamount to taking a walk down memory lane (remembering your bunk at camp, your first sleepover or maybe even "spin the bottle"). Memory-inducing notes aside, it smells much better than its small price tag would indicate and is teensy enough to toss into your gym bag or glove box to keep you powdery fresh at all times.

I wonder if threading works. It seems interesting.

I liked the Aussie 3 minute miracle as a daily conditioner, but it wasn't conditioning enough for me to use it as a deep conditioner.

I hear threading hurts more than waxing but have been thinking of trying it. I do waxing every couple of weeks for my brows. I can deal with the waxing- it's tweezing that I hate.
