My first auto-delivery shipment of the Youth Creator Eye Serum started out on July 4 and it has quite the adventurous sightseeing trip so far. Started out in California, then Washington, then Illinois, and now Colorado. Good thing I still have a little left of that product in the bottle! LOL!!!

@World Traveler 

Road trip!  You don't need to answer this if you don't want to - but what state do you live in?  Just curious as to where it was supposed to end up!  LOL

[World Traveler]

@JudyL  I lived in California all my life, until three years ago when I moved up north to Washington. So the package touched down in Seattle, just to say "Hi, I'll be back in your area soon," and then took off for parts unknown! LOL!!

This is not the only glitch lately. Many weeks ago I purchased a lot of Perlier from HSN and never got it. Called HSN two weeks later and said there was no tracking for it. They determined it was lost and issued me new orders for the same products, EXCEPT they had no Perlier cleansing wipes in stock, so they credited my account for those. 

A few days ago the original order started showing up, and then yesterday the replacement order came in. Now I have twice what I ordered. Trying to decide whether to return the second set so I am not charged for it, or.......since the prices were so good, perhaps I will keep the replacement order. Decisions, decisions, decisions.

And who knows, maybe the original order of wipes will show up some day!

Oh my what a mess with your shipments.  Hmmm, understand your dilemma on the second order.  It may be worth keeping if the prices were good or could you give some as gifts come holiday time?  I've lived in CA all my life.  First Southern California, then moved to the Bay Area.  At least when the orders ship from Ontario, it doesn't take long to get to me.   However, it may take weeks for the items to ship from Ontario. LOL

HAVE HAD THAT HAPPEN TO ME TOO World Traveler and JudyL, HERE IN NJ.

IT COULD BE IN THE NEXT TOWN, AND THEN IT IS SENT ON A LITTLE TRAVELING TRIP AROUND THE GARDEN STATE!

[World Traveler]

@JudyL  The only area you didn't mention living was Central California, and that's where I was born and raised. But I did live in Southern California for a brief time and also Northern California for a short time, before going back to the Central area.

I do not miss the triple digits of California. My sister just left after visiting me for a week, and it was in the 70's here; it was triple digits when she got home.

@World Traveler 

When I lived in Southern California, I was in the Inland Empire and triple digits for the summer were the norm.  Now living in the Bay Area, if it gets to the mid-80's I"m whining about how hot it is.  LOL  Can't take the heat any longer.  Love living a block from the Bay and feeling that cool breeze.

[World Traveler]

@JudyL  Know what you mean. I am a couple of blocks away from the Pacific Ocean, and my new home has no air conditioning. Not many people have A/C here because we get the natural air conditioning of the breezes every morning and afternoon; sometimes during the day too. The hottest I have had it in my back yard is 81 degrees. 

What really made me laugh was the day I flew up here with my dog, it was 80 degrees and they had a heat advisory/warning out to everyone. Where I flew out of in California, it was 111 degrees. I was actually cold at 80 degrees.

I would tell some people they were wimps, in a joking way, and that they would not make it one day in California! They would come back to me with, "Oh, yay? Well, I've been to California and the minute it starts to sprinkle you all run for your umbrellas!" Which is true. LOL! When it gets in the 50's, they are wearing shorts here.

By the way, you probably got the Santa Ana winds when you were in the Inland Empire. I lived briefly in Costa Mesa, much closer to the beach areas than you. Around 3:00-3:30, those winds would come around like clockwork. I did drive out to San Bernardino and Riverside one time, but the air doesn't move much there, so I can understand what it was like. Felt like an oven.

[JudyL]

@World Traveler 

Most people here don't have AC either because we are so close to the Bay.  Grew up in Riverside and 110 summer days were not unusual.  Yes, it was like an oven.  Glad we both are out of that!  

Sorry to have hijacked your post on Perlier!

[World Traveler]

@JudyL  No problem.    I don't mind disclosing what part of the world I live in.

Now, for you and @weez1987 and anyone else........do you store your beauty items in the refrigerator? I'm pretty sure @weez1987 once said on a Lancer thread that she bought a small refrigerator for her products, one that is specifically for that purpose.

Although it doesn't get hot where I live, I have so many now with Perlier that I got on sale, that it will be a while before I get to them. Thought it might be a good idea; so much so, that I have already put some in a bottom drawer of my refrigerator.

Also, if it is a good idea to do that, are there some beauty products that should NOT be put in the refrigerator, like the oils?
