I wash my all cotton mattress pad protectors in the washing machine and dryer. But these are truly 100% cotton meaning the batting is cotton. I would double check the HSN product regarding what the batting fill is made out of. Most all cotton mattress protectors actually have polyester filling which makes me hotter and sweat.

Probably not clean beauty but I read many posts on here complaining about other brands sold. SLS if a harsh chemical that allows for more foaming. I personally don’t find that any products form this brand work on my skill or do any damage control.

I recently bought a Nakery product again that was fabulous in the past and now causes me skin to dry out more. Lots of comments in the reviews and even on here that Nakery is not clean beauty either.

I just looked at their website and the model with the short darker brown hair looks really familiar. Like I have seen her on QVC or HSN years ago probably. Interesting.

I am noticing many items no longer have the fabric and sizing information. That makes is a hard no for me. Even QVC is trying to get away with doing this at times.

I am on both forums from time to time. I have noticed a lot of moderation and if someone reports you for something even not warranted, that post or thread is removed. I have had one advice seeking post removed from QVC for politics but it wasn’t a political post. I just said, oh well.

I had read the good advice people gave me before someone reported the thread. I am pretty sure who reported it at that time but decided not to take it personally and no longer remember who it was.

A lot of petty people on that forum but some nicer ones.

I have never had a post be reported or removed on here but it is slower and I don’t tend to use this forum like I tried with that one advice seeking post I tried on QVC.

I feel it is harder to “fit in” on the QVC forum. Meaning you have to work it a long time it feels like until you are a member of the “in group” on there. And there are mean people on QVC. Just have to ignore them.

I watched her once in the morning and really enjoyed her presentations. She gave a lot of good information on each product and did not interrupt the vendor.

I threw away the pink bottle in my naive state of belief in this brand. So I can’t compare ingredients. And it has been too long to return the white bottle. Sad this no longer works. I even recommended the old pink version to a friend. Sigh.

I enjoy perusing your thread and love the ones that have moving parts. I think what you do on here is a form of art. A positive hobby. I sometimes go months without looking and then lately I wanted to see what you post!

What a lovely reminder about getting back out to real stores. I think for many of us we still have a sort of Covid era fear and we learned to shop on HSN and QVC. I used to find things on these two shopping channels I could not find other places. Now I have gotten picky and don’t like the cheap fabric and bad fit found here. I will have to make myself go to real stores again. Thank you for the reminder.

I used to love Marla Wynne fashions but not in the last 5 years I guess. I hate ankle pants and Marla insists on always having ankle length and now it is very wide legs. She has said while showing her clothes line on HSN that ankle pants balance her type of body shape so she always does them. I thought to myself, never assume everyone else thinks the same as we do but a common mistake people make. .

I am having much trouble finding anything on HSN that fits me now. The last pants I bought were Nina Leonard, same size in different styles, same designer, and only one fit. That one was “demin” and smelled to high heaven. I have now washed it about 7 times with laundry borax and detergent and gotten it to where it doesn’t reek of whatever chemical is always on HSN’s jeans. The pair I sent back were too small and showed the “lumps and bumps.”

I look at the fit on the hosts and the models and the vendor person. Too often they have the host and the model is one or two sizes too small of garments and if I can see their “lumps and bumps” I won’t buy it. I want my pants to be heavy enough fabric, old school style.

And dress the models in the correct size so the pants are not so tight the legs wrinkle across or the buttons on the front of a top don’t gape at the bust line. When I see the lumps and bumps, I am not interested in purchasing because what if it looks like that on me and the model is in her “correct” size? Yikes.

I miss many that are now gone. I can’t stand the odor of the denim sizing or whatever it is that smells so badly and won’t totally wash out. DG2 is one of those lines with the horrible smelling denim and it makes me sad to watch and know I don’t dare order again and be disappointed or pay to return.

I believe the label C. Wonder has been around for years. I remember buying two cute cotton shirts from this line in about 2020 and thought it was “cotton wonder” HA HA. And it wasn’t Christian Siriano back then. I believe the “rep” is now the designer, his name is Ken. He does a good job I think but their clothes do not fit my body nor am I working any longer. I think I would be wearing more of this line if I still had an office job.

I like Matt Evers, he is not as fake as some of the hosts, he is low key, and listens to the vendors. He is calm and I can watch him without cringing or changing channels.

Men can show wigs and at least they are not wearing the woman’s wig in an unflattering color and proclaiming it so wonderful, get two!

Odieboom, your state should have what is called Long Term Care Ombudsmen. It is a program that helps with issues at long term care facilities. There should be a poster on the wall in a place that patients or their loved ones can see it. LTCOP in Florida. Also there is something I found that is called Elder Affairs in Florida. Get some muscle behind your complaints. Take photos on your phone when you go in and see food on the floor. I worked at a non-profit in my state that did the long term care ombudsman program in my state. There is also the Area Agencies on Aging in every state (a federal program). You do not have to fight this by yourself. Big hugs.
