smin2x I bought a mocrowavable sterilizer but I did not use it because I have to sterilize plenty of bottles and it won't fit into it. It was really a wast of money, I'm just thinking I will give it as a present to one of my friends when they will have a baby.

If you want to dye your hair, what color will you choose?

youless @youless (113839) • Guangzhou, China 26 Sep 07

I have never dyed my hair. But if one day I have to dye it, perhaps I will dye the color as well as the deep purple grapes. I think it is not very big difference from my original hair color and it is suitable for Asian people.
