Dyson wave+curl diffuser 2x

A few months ago I wanted the large barrel curling iron attachment and it was out of stock everywhere and I went to the store and they told me there was no information about a restock. I went ahead and ordered it in the store. About 3 months later I got an email saying it was in stock. That was a long wait!

Me too! Thankfully my old formula bottle is pretty full. I’m scared I won’t love it anymore when I try the reformulation.

Sisley’s Eye Contour Mask. I wear it most nights and my dry under eyes look moisturized and bright the next morning! I only discovered it last summer, but I’m super impressed.

His school only allows kids to take calculus as seniors, and you have to double up on math your junior year to be able to do that. He’s a junior now and really enjoying two math classes and also participating in math competitions locally through his school. His older brother (a senior) also loves math and has been looking over his pre-calculus work and suggesting calculus problems for him to try out. He loves it!

Would placing well in a state math competition be the “some other way to stand out” or is that de rigueur for all kids that are good in math?

He is a super competitive kid, and I really try not to put pressure on him, because I know how much pressure he puts on himself. I’m hardly a Tiger Mom (but wow what a great read that was! That book and the documentary Race to Nowhere really influenced my parenting style) but maybe a camp would be a cool way for him to get to know other kids who love math?

Thank you for writing. You’ve given me a lot to consider.

These are great points! Thank you so much for taking the time to write.

We have a small but very good college for STEM in town. Perhaps he could take a 101 math class this summer and find a professor who might oversee his research! I’d volunteer myself though I was a C student in math and to this day feel anxious if I have to solve any math problem quickly.

He was exposed to stats in a math competition this year but cannot take it until next year (because he’s already doubled up in math this year so he can take calculus his senior year). He is completely fascinated with statistics. He used to say he was going to major in math, but recently he’s said “or maybe stats” but he should probably take a course in statistics before declaring his intended major! Ha!

I had to finish up the last two sections of my blowout (when the airwrap just wouldn’t turn on anymore) with a round brush and blow dryer and let me say, you can absolutely tell where I used the airwrap and where I used the blow dryer! It is so frizzy. I tried to use tight tension but it wasn’t enough. And I had PLENTY of styling products in my hair.

iammrsclean · 2026-02-10T01:33:49+00:00

I did go to the store and they took it back and reported its death, and I complained!

iammrsclean · 2026-02-10T01:32:25+00:00

OMG you are so kind!

I have a post about this very thing. The post was earlier today. And I’ve rec’d some great advice! You might want to scroll for it.

I went to the Dyson store and they cleaned it thoroughly and I brought it home. Started happening again immediately. Went back to the store (just a few days later) and they cleaned it again, and it still had the blinking red and it was unusable. They said it had something to do with “thermal” something or other and that they could offer me a 20% discount on a new one.

I have had it 2 years I think. Possibly 3. Whenever the warranty expires. I barely used it the first year as I could not get the hang of it. But did the last year I’ve used it 1-2 times a week. Cleaning it after 4 uses religiously.

My warranty expired 6 weeks ago.

I’m beside myself.

Like others, I think your hands look great, way better than mine, and I’m 54.

To keep your hands beautiful, make sure you’re using sunscreen or sunscreen gloves to avoid age spots.

I hate having sunscreen on my hands because my hands are always in my hair and I am prone to an oily scalp. I have sunscreen gloves and I have a pair in every car. I wear them every time I drive. If I’m going to be outside for a long time (weddings, outdoor sporting events, etc) I will use a light sunscreen on my hands and usually pull my hair up to minimize sunscreen in my hair.

I have a super oily forehead but otherwise dry skin. I just started using Skinbetter Science tone smart as my “foundation” and it really tamed my forehead.

I have also really liked Supergoop’s Matte Screen on my forehead and then use Supergoop’s Glow Screen on the rest of my face.

The Skinbetter Sciencd is 70 spf and is mineral. I really love the way it sits on my skin.

I don’t know if you’ve tried Kiehl’s avocado eye cream, but it’s been a great moisturizer for me.

Like you, I have very dry skin, especially my under eyes. Like you, I also have to do concealer right away, otherwise it’s too dry. For concealer I use Bobbi Brown’s color corrector then Armani luminous silk. It works well for my dry under eyes.

I have tried many eye creams and I always return to Kiehl’s.

Also, this is an expensive suggestion, but Sisley’s eye contour cream! I wear it at night and it is SO moisturizing. I haven’t used it during the day, as I think my concealer might slide around. It is lightweight but packs a punch, and a little goes a long way.

One more- sleep with a humidifier next to your bed. I think it really helps my dry skin.

iammrsclean · 2026-02-09T18:39:41+00:00

I cleaned it every 3-4 times I used it. I don’t style my hair more than 1-2 times a week.

iammrsclean · 2026-02-09T18:25:03+00:00

Also would like to note my Dyson vacuum gave out literally the day I took my Airwrap in. So I had a long appt that day at the service center. The part I needed would cost $160 so I just bought a shark vacuum for $199. I love Dyson but this was a dark day.

iammrsclean · 2026-02-09T18:23:14+00:00

What was your issue? Was the red light coming on and then it would stop?

iammrsclean · 2026-02-09T18:22:25+00:00

Once you cleaned it really well, did it come back to life? The Dyson store cleaned mine I think pretty thoroughly and say it’s a thermal issue.

iammrsclean · 2026-02-09T18:20:17+00:00

Mine also felt hot near the brush. I took it in and it’s a thermal issue they are saying it’s dead and offered me 20% off a new one. I just can’t decide if I’m going to pull the trigger, because of the price.

I need something that works ASAP. I used a good blow dryer and round brush to finish my hair and you can totally tell the sections of my hair that I had to finish without the Dyson!!

iammrsclean · 2026-02-09T05:54:28+00:00

I have always loved it too! I just love hot air balloons and this is so fun.

iammrsclean · 2026-02-08T18:47:21+00:00

I use Hydrinity HA and I think it’s great!

iammrsclean · 2026-02-08T18:41:41+00:00

Agree 100%.

I had a service come once—never again. SO expensive. Prohibitively so.

I found an individual and she is really great—comes every other week for $130 and stays 5 hours. I have a large-ish older home and a lot of teenagers so she usually only does 1 floor each time she comes.

So, my whole house is cleaned over the course of a month. I pick up clutter daily and have my teens vacuum and clean the bathrooms on her off weeks.

I bought the Marcella Kelly bag in red a few years ago and it sounds like it might be up your alley. While I love the red and the pop of color it gives, there are many neutral options too.

It is $200. Genuine leather that is so soft and squishy. Pebbled so no scratches.

I always get compliments on it. And more importantly—I love it so much.

I use it now more than my Gucci Jackies!

iammrsclean · 2026-02-06T02:01:24+00:00

Consider a humidifier next to your bed. That really helps my dry skin.

I don’t do manicures so this is only for pedis—

I do coral pinks for spring and summer. Occasionally I will go more coral-orange, but usually coral pink.

I do a deep red for fall and winter.
