Not Showing Topics As Having New Replies After Logging In...

I don't know if I'm the only one experiencing this, but I haven't seen anyone else mention it.

Usually, once I log in, all the threads that have been posted or commented on since the last time I was logged in will show up with the darker "New Replies" icon next to them, but yesterday and today when I've logged in, they've all showed up with the paler "No New Replies" icon.

I don't know why this is happening, and it's a little bothersome, since I can't tell if I've read certain topics, or if I need to check them.

Threads that are posted or commented on after I log back in will start showing the "New Replies" icon. I just don't know why all the ones that are posted or commented on during the time that I'm logged out aren't showing that I haven't read them.

Anyone have any idea?

My Kid Sister's Prom Is Coming Up...

(Sigh.) My kids sister's prom is coming up, and she's planning on wearing a dress that I don't think is very flattering. And now she wants me to do her makeup, because even though I've tried time and time again to show her how to create some simple, flattering looks, she has no idea what she's doing.

I'm thinking about just doing something subtle in some shimmery nudes, with slightly winged eyeliner, and little lipstick for some pop. Her dress is bright orange, and I don't want to overdo it, especially since she touches her face a lot. I figure nudes won't make her look absolutely ridiculous if she manages to smear them all over.

Any other suggestions?

I don't know why she can't just stand up straight. (Sighhhh.)

It looks really pretty, I think, but it sounds like a bit of a pain in the butt to do. Has anyone here tried it?

There are a bunch of YouTube videos on how to do it, if anybody's curious.

New Look In Threads...

I just noticed that when I click on a thread, it now shows the original post at the top, slightly separated from the responses, and then shows the responses with a little indicator of how many there are.

I think it looks great, and it seems like it'll make replying in really longs posts a heck of a lot easier, since the original post will always be right there at the top of the page.

Kudos the the Acne.org crew! : D

I Finally Ordered Some Of Dan's Products...

After about seven months on The Regimen, I finally ordered the Benzoyl Peroxide and AHA from danielkern.com. I opted for the cheapest shipping rate, which said it would take 2-5 business days to get here, but I was just wondering if anyone else from Chicago had ordered supplies from the site, and how long it took for them to get their order.

Also, I'm kinda nervous about switching from Neutrogena On The Spot to Dan's BP. I've seen some people talk about breaking out after switching over, and good grief, I don't want that. I dunno. I guess I'm just nervous and anxious about using something new. I mean, what's the consistency like? Is it anything like BenzaClin? Does everybody break out a little when they switch over? Should I use the same amount of Dan's BP as I'm using with the NOTS, or should I take it easy and start with a little less, and work my way back up?

And should I wait for a little while after I switch over to Dan's BP to start using the AHA? How long does it take for the AHA to really start working? And how long does a tube of AHA typically last? I'm really hoping it'll be as wonderful as the people on the Org have made it seem.

I'm excited. And scared. And nervous. o_0
