As if I need another reason to poke around the drugstore! I esp. love
the old-fashioned kind with all the little bottles of mysterious
things...I really miss that about England...they have great chemists'
(drugstores).

So, let's see, the shopping list: spirit o' camphor, oil o' clove, NEw
Skin, transpore tape, cotton balls, q-tips...anything else?

Last time I went to the drugstore (and I resisted buying camphor
spirits because I wanted to find out the results first) I walked out
with the coolest heating pad. It heats by chemical reaction and the
heat lasts for about 4 hours, then you re-activate it by microwaving
the gel back to liquid. It's too cool! I also found a gel facial
mask by Queen Helene with honey and vit C. It's very acidic judging
by the slight sting I felt when I tried it on my face last
night...probably will be good for henna, too, when thinned down and
painted on...
