Happened!

OK, so as it turns out: I should have had short hair all along.

Here's the thing: it's just a haircut, right? But the second - and I mean the second - that ponytail was off my head, I suddenly felt…like myself. People keep saying "Do you feel so free?!" and YES.

Have you heard of Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Cream? You probably have: it's a super-rich emollient that you use on everything from your cuticles to your elbows to your eyebrows, and is a total cult product (and one of my personal must-haves). And it's not exactly "weird"; more like "classic"…so what's up with the "Weird Product Test-Run" title of this post?

What's up is that Elizabeth Arden just added a new product to the Eight Hour Cream line: Nighttime Miracle Moisturizer. And it's weird. It's basically an enhanced version of the original, with the same uber-thick texture (plus lavender to calm skin and help you sleep)…and the weird part lies in the fact that it's supposed to go on your face. Because it's one thing to apply a product that heavy-seeming to your nail beds, and another thing entirely to apply it to, like…your chin.

Oh, my hair.

I have loved it SO MUCH these past few months. I've even been accused several times of having hair extensions (as if I wouldn't excitedly declare CHECK OUT MY EXTENSIONS! were I to actually shell out the money for them)...which is less "accusation" and more "best compliment ever."

I did not have extensions; I had pregnancy.
