By chance is this your first ceramic cook top? If so, you probably are not applying enough elbow grease (not downward pressure, you just keep rubbing until it's gone). I have a different brand, have had it over a year and never have any spots didn't clean off, but some with more work than others. I've had ceramic cooktops for 20 years, and with regular electric, one learns how to really scrub those babies to get them spotless. Compared to them, those with induciton like to comment on how they seem to clean themselves, but it's really not quite that easy, just easy compared to dealing with baked on gunk from regular electric ceramic cooktops.

I was losing a lot of hair for the past eight months and I looked into many different causes - food allergies, stress, hormones, etc so I did my best to modify and with not much luck so I started looking at the ingredients in my shampoo. In my case I was also getting dermatitis. Anyways, I changed my cleansing habits. I apply coconut oil or castor oil to my scalp and massage my scalp and keep it on overnight. I also started to use Dr. Bronner's soaps (which I love, love, love now) on my face and in place of shampoo. It's pretty strong and leaves a build up so usually wash my hair again with an organic shampoo (no parabens or SLS - I think SLS is the biggest culprit with me) and just condition the ends of my hair and don't let any get onto my scalp. I think I am sensitive to a lot of products and they really clog my pores. My moisturizer is plain old coconut oil and Penaten (diaper cream) for any blemishes I may get. I used to lose handfuls of hair in the bath/shower and then more when I dried my hair and now I love 5-10 hairs max since changing my routine. All the hair I lost is coming back too!

hi some time ago i had experienced the same problem: my hair was falling very quickly. in every room, on my cloths, everywhere i was finding my hair only on my head no. so i start researching on the net for solutions and i decided to try some new products on the market and i am very happy with my decision. my hair is back where it belongs and this means that is on my head. i used on every wash a special shampoo with multi-minerals and after that a great regenerating hair mask, bothe products have the main ingredient clay. all the informations needed on this products you will find on this site: http://www.aslaskin.com/ProductLineDescription.aspx?Category=1

Blushing Escapade got my attention. Is it more of a true pink or a mauve/lavender pink in person?...Hearts of Fire looks vibrant, not like the dull brick reds of old.... I was interested in your picture of Ashwood Dark Side as it's on my long list. I'm not sold on the form though, so it will probably remain there. Still hard to beat Norris's Mary's Baby if one is going to forego the round and/ or frilly look.............Maryl
