Wow, purchased twice? That really is something :) I can imagine it'd take a while for me to finish mine ... though I do use a fairly decent amount each time. I don't mind the scent but I can see how it'd be a too much after a while for those with sensitive noses. I was thinking of the AHA Concentrate (which is actually cheaper some places - like StrawberryNET) but the mask was the one that received the most glowing exposure on blogs so naturally I was sucked right in like the sucker I am :psleepandwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09916100256685023244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501277763592283146.post-69386765242304684512014-01-09T00:19:00.006+11:002014-01-09T00:19:00.006+11:00Hope you get your hands on it soon!Hope you get your hands on it soon!sleepandwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09916100256685023244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501277763592283146.post-33480030498882933522014-01-09T00:18:44.143+11:002014-01-09T00:18:44.143+11:00What other products of theirs would you recommend?...What other products of theirs would you recommend?
