When I took the ACT, I scored in the 90-something percentile. I am comfortable using multi-syllabic words like loquacious, garrulous, and gregarious in casual conversation. I cannot, for the life of me, however, figure out how this recent purchase works! How does the bronzing powder escape from its plastic prison? I swear, even Houdini could not figure out this one. Your assistance is much appreciated!

I think that the plastic gets harder when it is around someone as vainglorious as yourself. Try stepping away from the bronzer, turn your head, like you're not paying attention to it, and leap on it. The success of this little trick scores somewhere in the 80-something percentile. Good luck!
p.s. Houdini's specialty was getting out of things, not into them.

Doesn't the powder just sift itself through a small screen and "soak into" the sponge?

I think it sifts too. Is this like a bare minerals type of thing?

Two Pretzels! You are a genius! My bronzed face and I thank you!

Hurley - Exactly...Houdini tried to escape, just like the powder is trying to escape. Vainglorious! Fabulous word!

31, thanks for taking what I said and seeing that it wasn't malevolent.
