The problem with tourmaline in general is the expense..All are high. I have a couple of bi-color tormalines, but one can't get good ones reasonalby..if you see it..BUY it now, same as GOOD Tanzi..See it..Buy it, but a lot of it is very light shaded or even gray..and who can afford the larger gemmy stones..Yikes..Citrine is kinda pretty but I don't think many people like it..like Peridot, its kinda yukky, but I really don't like Peridot. It is my poor neices birth stone.She hates it too..I got her a ring for Christmas this year..Bought today, so she will have the hated Peridot in her drawer anyway..She will hate me..NOT..I don't like my birthstone either..(garnet),so I have things in every color including the red, but I have geeen, raspberry, etc., so I can wear my birthstone, without it being a dull red garnet..

I miss the Essence of Time full line of products (especially the light colored soap and their lipsticks). I still order directly from their Company but I wish HSN would add them back. HSN still sells their cream. Their products are wonderful and reasonable. Also, I still order Connie Steven's Collagen Skin Quencher directly from her Company. I have asked HSN to bring her products back also.

Connie Stevens.

And Adrianne's cleanser and toner
that was in the beauty by the pound
kit. I didn't care for the vanilla
products in the kit, but that cleanser
and toner were the best -- and also the
original 5 essentials cream.

Are you kidding??? My birthstone is a diamond, and still anytime there is a birthstone ring on, I buy garnet!!! I love that stone! Go figure, huh??

I guess I also didn't realize tourmaline was so expensive now. I thought it was a semi precious stone and HSN still carries PRECIOUS stones (like sapphires) for reasonable prices so I guess I figured they could still get ahold of tourmaline and sell it for reasonable prices too...

I also miss Cervelle. I had a lot of Cervelle clothes that were very pretty - and reasonably priced.

Also, Essence of Time - I used to love watching those presentations, and I did actually get some, and as I recall it was quite good.

Please bring back the Rendezvous weekender tote,item 343-200. I bought it in the giraffe print (it came in black and zebra, also). I have gotten three requests from friends who want this for Christmas. I'm going to be put into the "Dumper" if I don't deliver! Please bring it back, it's very popular.

I have the pretty royal blue Bravetti mixer with the retractable cord, all the attachment mixing pieces like the whisk, dough hooks (great for making meat loaf too!),and a couple other attachments. It also sits upright on it's bottom so the handle is on the side and you can grab it easily. I have had it for a few years and it still is great! I wonder why I don't see the Bravetti items anymore.It is light and easy to use! You would think with it being affordable and user friendly it'd be available still!
Sig. Club A used to have the most FABULOUS retinol peach colored and delicious peachy scented gel wash, available in kits with retinol caps and 5E, then of course those DYNAMITE professional size sets that you would use with a massaging brush. Those bottles were each in 1 lb bottles, the gel cleanser, a vanilla bean scrub and a lovely moisturizer. You could use on face and body with the massaging brush. I MISS that FOAMING GEL OIL FREE CLEANSER !!!! It smelled like heaven, made your skin feel like a baby's bottom just by washing with it, it exfoliated with NO harsh scratching. I REALLY hope she might bring it back some day soon! Peter thomas Roth has copied it and it cost way more, I also tried another sample by someone else, seemed a copy with a higher price tag. It makes you wonder why and what happened.

Great minds think alike!!! I JUST wrote HOW much I missed NOT just the set but just the retinol gel cleanser as well!! She only has cream type of cleansers and I LOVED the gel cleanser and that FABULOUS Toner!!!! I remember when you could just mist it on your face. I REALLY wish she would bring that back even if she couldn't do the 1 lb bottles. It was THE best. It really made your skin feel like silk without even using the scrub or any manual exfoliator, the cleanser did it ALL by it self! LOVE!!!!!!!!!that stuff!

Remember when HSN used to offer those huge skin care kits from SSC, Adriene and Marily Miglin? They used to have a treasure chest of goodies. I know that it is cost prohibitive but at least once a year they would offer one.

i loved the hope line by kristian alfonso. truly the best fitting jeans ever and very stylish line overall. what ever happened to her? she used to sell her jeans like crazy.
