Lauren’s little brother asked Ben what he thought of the Fantasy Suite in a clip at the very end. that was so utterly WTF.

dirty pretty things was really good.

It's also in some of the nice brands of energy bars, I can't remember if it was Kashi or FiberOne. but someone out there is using finely ground wood to make their bars full of fiber.

“and I want to talk smart things!”

I think GWB is goodlooking actually but people can’t separate his personality from his features.

YES. true. being terrible at something then cutely giggling.

trying to redeem yourself from acting like a moron can be so hard.. I think Olivia would have done better to go talk to ben about other things, act all quiet and reserved and different from how she normally is, thus getting Ben to ask her what was wrong. It would positioned him as the one who brought it up instead of…

I think Jami who got sent home last week is black... or halfsies? (I'm no expert on id'ing race.)

I'm not sure if "growing up" is the thing amber needs to do... but she needs to do something. I got really annoyed when she started crying on the pool chair. she came on the show knowing how it worked and that she had a roughly 4 percent chance of ending up with Ben. ARGH!

probably yes. I guess I just want people to be more comfortable being bad at things!

Olivia constantly talking about her subpar showgirl performance was more annoying than her actual performance. Anyone can bomb a talent show. Ben will get over it. But the way she kept acting on the date was just annoying. Even Ben was confused by it. he didn’t even understand why she was apologizing to him and…

I live in Minneapolis and I WANT TO DO THIS!

uh, I’m sorry I bothered you with my obviousness? you said the tingle made you think it was doing its job which is not at all true... so... yeah.

yes! DIY for the win! I’m constantly telling people they can make a really nice all natural lip balm for like thirty five cents.

tingling, believe it or not, is irritation. it’s just a really mind, diluted, irritation. Menthol, camphor, and phenol and the three biggest causes of tingling feelings from lip balm. some people's skin tolerates it better than others. anyone with very sensitive skin will need to watch out for those ingredients, or…

look for products with high amounts of olive oil, avocado oil, and shea butter. all those ingredients have a slower absorb time and last longer on your mouth.

that’s the thing, lip balm should not need a preservative in the first place. it has no water in it. bacteria love water, very much. but when you make a product out of oil and beeswax without any water in it... you don’t have to include a preservative. that’s why lotion needs preservatives but lip balm does not.

some people react badly to jojoba oil, and EOS does contain jojoba.

I don’t understand the mold either. I make lip balm and my readings on the internet led me to believe mold/bacteria love WATER. and products made entirely from oil and wax will not have an issue with mold. EOS is all oil and wax, I don't know how mold could end up in there... was there tiny water droplets inside the…

MAKE YOUR OWN. I started doing this a while ago and I recommend it to pretty much everyone. lip balm is very easy to make. melt oil with beeswax, stir, pour into container. that is all.
