Hi! :D
There has been a lot of talk about silica and brewers yeast, and in the “Help- ways to get eyebrows to grow?”-thread I wrote about the Silica/Brewers yeast/Seaweed flour-tablets I take. There was a lot of interest in them, so I’m going to see if anybody would be interested in doing a swap for them?
What I will offer is to buy those I think are the best and send them in exchange for other goodie-stuff
I’ve been through six different brands, but I keep coming back to “Futura Silica”, which is just the love of my life! :D Even though there are lots of other brands, this are- in my humble opinion- the best! 8)
I hope you all trust me and my experience, but I’ve decided to translate what it says on the package:

From my own experience, my skin is very good now- I had terrible skin when I was a teen but after two months taking Futura Silica, my skin was doing great. I still get a little trouble around my period, but with four pills per day a few days a month, it’s clear and radiant.
My nails have grown a lot stronger and I can now grow them a lot longer than I even find comfortable. This brand also gives my nails this glossy shine like if I am wearing shiny nail polish.
It made my hair all over my body grow faster and thicker- especially eyebrows and lashes. The eyebrows you see in my pictures are circa half the size of my natural brows! :shock:

So what are the downsides/side effects of this?
They taste pretty bad, but I like that they taste natural and are not coated in something.
It makes the hair thicker and grows faster all over, so if you have dark hair you might want to think twice before you grow a moustache! Some people complain they get “Neanderthal legs” from it, but I’ve never gone that long without shaving that I would notice
The only bad story I have heard, was this lady with a really bad fungus-infection who took them and it made the infection worse because of the yeast, but this lady was so ill that se couldn’t even eat sugar since it would feed the fungus! *shivers* Gross!
I’ve been taking it for two years and haven’t seen any side effects apart from the thicker eyebrows. But it’s just spending a few more minutes plucking them

Oh- and a little trick I discovered: Taking one pill at breakfast, one at lunch and one at dinner gives better results than all tree at the same time

My idea of this would be that if anybody is interested we could swap stuff for the cost of buying these tablets. They cost 50 kroner for 120 tablets which is 40 days worth of a normal daily dose or 30 days treatment. Its 7,75 dollars or 6,62 Euros per package

I would be interested in swapping for:
* Great new conditioners, hair oil etc.
* Boar bristle brushes
* Seamless wooden combs
* Ouchless elastics
* Hair sticks (Especially the titanium ones from Argus-designs http://www.argusdesigns.com/products/titanium/ti_sk.html I LOVE those!)
* Silk pillow covers in black
* Head scarfs and bandannas (This one’s cute!
http://www.tznius.com/cgi-bin/product.pl?productid=65&groupid=15 )
* Cute bows
* All sorts of fun hair toys
* Bunjiis

I’m pretty open to suggestions!
Oh yeah- My friend Flemming who have been living in California for most of his life keep complaining that he misses pop tarts, so if they can be shipped somehow I would like to surprise him with those ;) and that powder to make jello-shots! He he

I think I have covered most of this, but if you have any questions then please post them here and I will do my best to answer them!
Interested? Then post here, send me a mail or a private message and let’s figure something out

Hey- I get to do a FAQ! Cool!! 8)

Will you offer the Futura Giant Evening Primrose-oil, as well?
- No, I haven’t tried that product myself and I don’t know if I can recommend it. I have tried the fish oil tablets and the calcium supplement and think its pretty good, but not that one.

Can I pay you?
- I would really prefer not. I would much rather try some new great products that other long haired people can recommend, for the worth of the tablets.

Are they for swallowing or chewing?
- They’re for swallowing, but that ½ second it takes to pass my tongue, I still have time to go “blearh”

Igor,

I'd be willing to find some bandanas like the tzinus site has. What colors would you like? I saw them at $4 apiece, but I may be able to find less expensive ones, depending on what you want.

Hi Rose Hanna!
My skin is very fair and I’m a blonde, so I mainly wear dark colours; Black, dark blue, dark grey and that army/camouflage green actually works out pretty fine
Sometimes I can even do red colours as long as it’s not too much of it
But definitely no white, purple, yellow, bright/light red, grey and green. It tends to make me look pale and sick :nono:

I have sent you a PM as well

I’m going to send out my first package with silica tomorrow! I’m soooo excited! :D

Have a great hair day!

You don't have Jello there? Get outta here. I could just send you some. Not a big deal. PM me if you would like a few boxes of jello, I'm sure I could throw in a box of poptarts too.

I just sent her a buttload of Jello and some PopTarts! :D I'm sure you can never have enough of that stuff though! ;)

Igor, you'll be eating ;) jello for a long time! :P

I’m sooooooo looking forward to see it! :D And I know a certain American/Dane who is going to be all jumpy with joy! I’ve known him for 2 years now and every week it’s “Oh I miss pop tarts…. ” Pretty funny when it’s coming from a whiny guy the size of a bear! I’m really looking forward to see his reaction! 8)
And to get some great hair stuff! :D And jello! :D Jello-shots!!! ;)
When I packed the boxes for you, I noticed that one of them seems to have been exposed to rain, so I went back to the store to complain and get a new one. Sure they’re packed individually in that plastic/tin foil thingy, but still… :?
Anyways, I’m sending them first thing I the morning- I’m still stuck at school and I’m not sure when were done here… I really hate AutoCAD! :evil: One would think that a car park would be easy to draw, but noooooo….

That’s like the nicest thing ever! :shock: :shock:
Do you want to swap for it? :D

Igor,

I can't think of anything I want right now. I could just send it. What flavours. PM me or send an e-mail, I think its in my profile or those little buttons.

Now where’s that dancing banana? ;)
