That sounds gross... sex smells like body fluid. I hope they didn't bottle that scent. Not saying I don't enjoy sex, just don't need to smell like it all day.


flex! That was good stuff, too (I ousted about Faberge and Halsa).

I'd describe the scent of. Flex as "musky/powdery"

Soft n Dri will help hide...when you're nervous inside! That was my deodorant in high school in 1985! Love that smell.

Anyone remember Faberge Organics shampoo? Ahhhh...that stuff was amazing with such a great scent. I swear it was a volumizer well ahead of its time. It was perfect for the big hair hairstyles of the 80s. Fab edge was discontinued, then I switched to Halsa marigold for blonde hair. Part of a whole line specifically for your hair color. Again, the scent! Gone by 1989. Never have found a favorite since.

And, Carnation Breakfast Bars. The first, ahead of their time, breakfast bar. The delicious, dry and crumbly goodness.

Hey 18:31 - I have a great big surprise for you! If you would like a Lemonhead fix, go to the gas station on the corner of Wisconsin and Ellicott. I was paying for gas there the other day and noticed that they have a display of all of the "old school" candy including Lemonheads! To the left of the cash register. They even had those baked bean things, (Boston Baked Beans?), Now & Laters and Atomic Fireballs!

If anyone else on here is also mourning -- any suggestions for substitutions for either?


Also Clinique's Dramatically Different lotion. It's been 15 years and still I mourn it.


The yellow stuff for your face? I think they still make that.

The Body Shop pineapple facial wash used to be very different than it is now (if they even still make it) and when they changed it, I stopped buying it. Then I stopped buying anything there because their SPF lotion gave me hives, and customer service said 'Too bad for you!'

Anyway, I do miss the original PFW.

No! It was L'Oreal. It's been so long I got mixed up.
