Why We Are So Bad at Buying Happiness

"Those who say that money can't buy happiness aren't doing it right."  Have you heard that joke before?  Well, it turns out that there is more than a kernel of truth in there. People are generally bad at buying happiness because: 1. We buy to keep up with the Joneses / ...

Hair, Hair, Everywhere – the Recession Edition

I wrote a hair post in both 2007 and 2008, so I suppose it's only appropriate to continue the tradition in 2009! This post is dedicated to recession's impact on hair budgets. The recession is a major reason why I've been neglecting my hair a bit during these past several months: ...

Experience, Not Stuff

Experience, not stuff: I've decided to make this my mantra to live by. It'll be hard, because I like nice things (ex: shoes), but guess which of the following I remember the most? (a) A $100 leather jacket purchased in Buenos Aires, that I've worn ONCE in 3 years. (b) A $45 hour-long horse ride on ...

Should Parents Pay For College Education

A college education has, for a large percentage of society, become the de rigueur entry-level degree.

How to Host a Dinner Party On a Budget

Hosting a dinner party is always fun, but right now I need my get-togethers to be budget-friendly as well. Remember when I made crab cakes? That was for a group of 5 or 6 friends. The crab cakes were delicious and everyone loved them, but, crabs are expensive! Two pounds ...

Pure Altruism - Does it Exist?

Every time the holidays come around, feel-good human-interest stories surface. This is a time to give to others, help those in need, and realize that the world is not as cutthroat or as competitive as we may believe. But is it true? Can people be purely altruistic? The authors of Superfreakonomics (the ...

The Price of Addiction To Argentine Tango

The Price of Addiction To Argentine Tango

It's happened. I fell for the sultry dance, hard. (I even made its own category!) I leave class with a big smile on my face. I read Argentine tango forums and blogs. I fall asleep thinking of boleos and molinetes. I'm not sure how my wallet feels about the possible financial ...

I haven’t tried these towelettes yet. I have been using the Costco MU wipes & they are better than the MAC ones & cheaper. =)

Sara Lang September 15, 2009 at 6:56 am

I want to win because I can’t afford to try out new products on a tight budget, but would love to know if these are worth budgeting for!

Reply

Sara September 15, 2009 at 7:50 am

I agree with Marisol, I have been using the Costco facial wipes; they are great! I am always willing to try something new! Moist towelettes can be such a relief after having makeup on ALL day!

Little Miss Moneybags September 15, 2009 at 8:05 am

I’d love to win these! I’d put them in my dance bag and use them at the studio after class or after performances to wipe off the tragic stage makeup I have to wear. We use baby wipes pretty frequently, but I’d like something that was designed for use on adult faces.

Chung Li September 15, 2009 at 8:45 am

I would love to win this. It is quick and easy to freshen up my face. I even used it to remove some makeup.

Reply

Kari September 15, 2009 at 9:51 am

I would love to try those. Right now I use the Clean and Clear towelettes. They do a great job, but I’m open to new possibilities! Especially since the Clean and Clear ones can be hard to find.

Kim September 15, 2009 at 11:19 am

I LOVE these towelettes, and I would love to win a pack! I use them all the time…especially on nights when my skin is feeling sensitive and an astringent just feels like it will be too strong :)

Reply

LJ September 15, 2009 at 11:40 am

I’d love to win a pack of these! My face is sensitive, so I have to use something gentle, definitely not a washcloth and bar soap. Enter me! Thank you :)

psychsarah September 15, 2009 at 1:35 pm

I’d love to win some of these, because when I perform with my chorus, we have to wear some heavy duty (awful) stage makeup, and getting it off my sensitive skin as quickly as possible is always a priority. Like Little Miss Moneybags, I use baby wipes, but these sound like a HUGE step up!

Carrie September 15, 2009 at 3:15 pm

i love these for those nights that i’m just too tired to wash my face properly

Carrie September 15, 2009 at 3:16 pm

Hmm.. I’d like to give them a try because I’m about to go on a little tour of Asia and if I can cut down on what to bring just by getting these towelettes, I am game.

I hate trying to squeeze liquids into a little tiny plastic bag just to get on a plane.

A bit unsure about the waste, but.. if they work.. heck why not?

i love these! i have been using them for a couple of years and they are great. even my boyfriend uses them!

These are great when you are way to tired to wash your face, but don’t want to leave your makeup on.

Reply

Ginger September 16, 2009 at 2:32 pm

I want to win because I’m a lazy bitch & can’t be bothered to do the whole makeup remover, cleanser, toner routine!

@monicarolevans September 16, 2009 at 2:39 pm

I would love to win the towelette because JUST started working out, and can already tell that I’m headed for a break out. If I have the little towlettes at my gym- I’d be dirt and grime free :-)

Despite being in my mid-30s, my skin still breaks out like I’m 14. I’d like to try these.
