Eau Gourmande Fresh Fig by Laura Mercier
I had completely forgotten that I had this stuff in the house.
So I've become accustomed to products that I like randomly disappearing from the face of the earth.
Like, for example, The Thymes "Green Tea," one of the only fragrances about which I've been unreservedly enthusiastic, and the one that I considered my signature: "Brisk green tea and Moroccan rose warmed with an infusion of spiced honey and soft woods ... ." They stopped making it about 5 years ago. My last bottle of the body lotion is about 75% gone.
And then going through a piled-up stack of mail today, I found a postcard:
GREEN TEA: Back by Popular Demand
Since its retirement, we've heard countless heartfelt please for the return of fan-favorite, Green Tea. You have been heard ... .
I have ordered myself a new bottle of lotion. It was pricey, but I couldn't pass up this second chance.
Scents & Sensitivity
Jan. 7th, 2012 09:36 pmToday and yesterday were both warm as all get-out (for January, anyway), but there was a cold spell before that, which meant my skin got dry, which meant I had to break out the lotion etc.
Which brought me face-to-face (or perhaps arm-to-arm, since I'm OK for facial moisturizer for the moment) with the fact that I'm running out of my two favorite products, and I know that one of them has been entirely discontinued, and I'm starting to worry about the other one. I could probably do quite well with unscented stuff billed as hypoallergenic, but I like the idea of nice-smelling stuff to smear on. The problem is, so many scents and scented products give me problems of various sorts.
