(kindly tolerate one more off-topic post..but i couldn't resist adding this one!)
are u kidding me, Cassin! I am not from the US and I have not seen women being so obsessed with makeup, hair, shoes and bags in my home country as in the US! dunno what it's like in Europe, but US women definitely do spend a significant amount of time and energy on trying to look good! I was shocked to see so many salons dedicated just for Nails when i came here!!
