enter code at checkout. exact location depends on site; eg. sometimes code box is at the beginning, sometimes after billing/shipping are entered etc etc. as u progress tru checkout, just keep a lookout for prompt to enter code or coupon.
for most sites, u are given chance to view order one last time before final submission. double check dat the discount has been applied accordingly and total amount is correct.
some codes need orders to fulfil certain conditions before discounts are given. eg. certain order total, only apply to non clearance items etc.
so make sure the items in ur cart qualify.

re : bath n body works anti bac hand wash
hihi....
i was looking for possible "convenient" ways to buy the captioned handwash, as stocks at home running low. and i should only return to states late this year.
may i learn if there is any shop selling such stuff? previously i asked my female friends but was advised there is no such outlets in singapore or malaysia.
the last online purchase on sls was like in 2007 by znat.
good stuff!
cheers......

order direct from the merchant site?
looks like need us cc n billing so if u dun have access to such, try one of the freight forwarders' (like vpost, comgateway, borderlinx etc) concierge services.
or google spree bath body works and join one of those if u r comfy w the charges etc.
or buy tru general sites like amazon, ebay etc. remember coming across sellers w bbw pdts. then u can use regular eg. vpost, no need concierge. some may even offer intl shipping.
hmmm who is znat?
if u check vpost thread, u will notice some of us are still online shopping but ordering our own mini orders and simply sharing vpost base charges.

No where else to post this, but Olaf! I made my own sunblock last night using the micro zinc ox and zcote that you donated to me!
I have much difficulty finding a natural body lotion that suits my liking (they're always too oily and never fully disappearing...). Needless to say, i cant find any body sunblock that i like. Face no problem though... So I found my HG brand, EO everyday body lotion. Last night I measured 30g of the lotion and 3g of the powders (I hope that makes 10% zinc oxide content) and mixed it up using a battery milk frother.
It worked! mixed up the blend nicely - there's no separation of the lotion by this morning. I used a giant syringe to suck the blend from my mixer cup to the lotion bottle.
Quite happy with my DIY sunblock and finally finally found a something with a texture I confirm like

3g zinc to 27g base then will be 10%. for low exposure, borderline ok. for more significant exposure days, aim for 20% or so.
disclaimer : i am of the camp dat believes % is not the sole factor affecting how well an end formula protects lar...but for diy, its at least an easily controlled factor.
this is off memory so pardon if salar : dat micronized zinc is 120nm, just above nano. zcote ranges from 30-200nm, meaning on average not nano but some particles can be nano. it is the coated version of zcote.
according to dat gal i mentioned, for broadest spectrum protection, best to mix different particle size, from high micron to low micron. i have high micron zo (ie. more opaque, white cast) too if u decide to go this way.
adding zo this way to ready emulsified base unlikely to cause seperation i think. cos the balance between oil water emulsifier not affected? the more likely issue is whether the zo is dispersed uniformly in the lotion and whether w time, will the zo settle to bottom. ball bearing n shake shake before each use may help.
ps. EO is the brand avail at iherb? if so, never tried EO body stuff before but i really hated one of their shampoos.

Yeah I got that lotion from iherb. I've never tried their shampoos though I read one good review on it before...
That's why I went to mix both the micro zo and zcote considering the spectrum protection range.. Oh yeah, some math error over there.. Maybe I will add on more zo.. It's starting to show a bit of white cast but should be able to tolerate another 3-4% more.
The lotion has thicker texture than the typical watery sunblocks and thicker than the average serum. But not cream like yet. No sign of settling yet :x cross fingers

Hi, do you think it is safe to send delivery to hotel address?
If merchant accepts such arrangement, not sure whether need to inform hotel first before ordering.....
any advice or has anyone ordered before with such arrangement?
