I don't really care for tea. I only drink it with milk and sugar. I don't care if it is regular milk or coffee milk. Unfortunately I get this funky residue on my tongue afterwards that makes me gag. Doesn't matter if I only add sugar or sugar and milk. Coffee anyday though...:coffee:

I love about any cheese there is out there. That icky tongue feeling sounds like what I get after drinking tea. Feels groooooooooss!!!!:barf:
What? Tea? I live for tea. Thats where I get my caffeine from because coffee upsets my stomach.
What?! Tea?! I love tea! Lol I love just water added or a little splash of milk. I want a daughter someday just so I can have tea parties lol I do however dislike coffee. I think that's because when I was younger I'd always see it and think it was hot chocolate lol I will drink it though if I'm sleep deprived. With lots of milk and half and half lol

The only tea i can have is herbal tea. I'm not allowed to have caffeine, except i will cheat and have an occasional frapp from starbucks. But I'm pretty much 99% caffeine free so herbal tea (passion tea only) and water are all i drink. My life sucks! :cry:

Tea's awesome! I'm on a white tea kick these days but I love black tea and green tea as well. I love it all, as long as it's not contaminated with the likes of milk, sugar and nasty flavours (strawberry cupcake tea FFS!

). The only flavours I really like are jasmine and bergamot.


To derail the thread even further, has anyone tried cinnamon and clove tea? When I say tea, I mean chucking 1/2 a cinnamon stick and a 5-6 cloves in a small pan full of water lol. I bring the pan to the boil, and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. It's delicious and it smells divine

So my FOD from the MAC restock came today, damaged. I called and they might be able to replace it, I'll know in a few days. I'm not upset though, if they can't I'll just use this one. It was kinda smooshed and smashed up in the cap but the weirdest thing is- it was FREAKISHLY tall. I had a really good laugh looking at it, I can't believe it so TALL! But anyways here's a pic

Good grief! Well I mean at least you have some extra product! Break out your lipbrush to get that product out of the cap!

This is exactly what one of mine ended up looking like from the same restock! Super long and smashed at the tip. I got two, and the other had that sticky glue or wax on the side. I was so annoyed because these were gifts. I called MAC CS and I was refunded because they couldn't replace them as FOD is out of stock.

It probably wasn't down in the bullet as far as a lot of lippies usually are (and sometimes the freakishly short lippies are too far down in the bullet!). It's kinda crazy how much product is deep down in the bullet if you ever dig it out...I did it when depotting my lippies for my kit. In some cases there was another 1/3 of product down there! Hopefully they'll send you a replacement though.

You are right. That does look big. Not long ago, when I ordered RiRi Woo from Mac it was delivered damaged. In fact , someone must have rolled the lipstick all of the way out of the tube and tried to put the cap on. When I got it I could not wind it back in the tube. I feel your pain.

That's so weird! I hope it was just a coincidence.

You've got a good point! Kinda crazy how much lipstick they stuff down there! Thanks, I hope by some miracle they can too, but I don't have my hopes up

So annoying how many problems they're having with this formula!

I was just gonna say the same thing [@]butterflyeyes[/@] said. Carefully push it back down i to the tube and you're good to go!

Buick, girl to my taste! You're 100% right, no contamination needed. Have you tried pu-ehr? That's some serious "mud"
lol.gif
.

Bergamot is ok with me, but I dislike jasmine. I have not tried you cinnamon mix but sometimes I've made an infusion with ginger (againts the flu).

I saw a guy talking about paleo diet on tv the other day. He made the gluten & dairy free diet sound so easy. Just walk in the restaurant and choose a meal.
nope.gif
Not so easy. He should step out of the big city and visit regular towns/restaurants.


Nooo, not tea? Have you tied real tea - not those flavoured/mixes/other plants that are called tea? Tea is actually a finer drink than wine - more variety in (real plant's) flavour. You don't need sugar or any other additives.

I intend to try real tea. I'll give you a heads up if that changes anything. :)

I know one. I intend to give it a go. I am sure it has to be better than the crap that is usually sold in supermarkets...
