Re: Poll: I can't live without...
The one technology product you can't live without My MacBook Pro. I never thought that I'd be a Mac person but I can't imagine having to go back to a PC.
The one beauty product you can't live without ( a specific makeup, shampoo, lotion, etc) TIGI BedHead Resurrection Shampoo/Conditioner. I have the most overprocessed hair on the planet and this somehow makes is smooth and shiny.
The one clothing item you can't live without (we'll say that basic underwear/bra/socks are a given) Ann Taylor LOFT jeans. Every style of theirs fits me great and I love all of their washes. Since I basically live in jeans, I get a pair or two everytime I hit the outlet. Love them.
The one food item you can't live without Does coffee count? If not, I'd have to say cheese, of almost any kind except for goat.
I second the Ann Taylor Loft Jeans, they are the only ones I have!! I almost listed those but the fitness fleece is very versatile for me.
The one technology product you can't live without: I'm not a tech person, so I'll just be lame and say the internet in general
The one beauty product you can't live without ( a specific makeup, shampoo, lotion, etc): Mascara, any variety (have used Volum' Express since high school though, with L'Oreal Voluminous for more oomph; I never go a day without either)
The one clothing item you can't live without (we'll say that basic underwear/bra/socks are a given): Lucky Jeans (Sweet 'n Low maybe? the only brand that fits my out-of-proportion hips and that has strategic pocket placement)
The one food item you can't live without: Chocolate. Duh.

The one beauty product you can't live without ( a specific makeup, shampoo, lotion, etc):(Only one?!! I'm much more high maintenance than that!) I love my MD Forte glycolic cleanser...it definitely keeps my acne under control better than anything else I've ever used.
The one clothing item you can't live without (we'll say that basic underwear/bra/socks are a given): considering the fact that pregnancy has made my chest grow to pornographic proportions, I definitely can't live without a great bra. I looooove my Panache Super Bras--so comfy and give great shape and support.
The one food item you can't live without: I don't have it everyday, but my world would be a dark place without Dunkin Donuts french vanilla coffee, mmmmmmm.
The one technology product you can't live without I guess I'd say tv. I love taking a break from the internets and whatnot - but I have to at least have a tv.
The one beauty product you can't live without ( a specific makeup, shampoo, lotion, etc) Chapstick. Specifically Burts.
The one clothing item you can't live without (we'll say that basic underwear/bra/socks are a given) I honestly think it's a tie between leggings and hooded sweatshirts.

We make the rockin' world go 'round.

What is (be specific with brands!):
The one technology product you can't live without
I love my smartphone but I'll say the one thing I cannot live without is my DVR. What did we do before this miracle invention?
The one beauty product you can't live without ( a specific makeup, shampoo, lotion, etc)
My Clarisonic and Bumble and bumble styling cream.
The one clothing item you can't live without (we'll say that basic underwear/bra/socks are a given)

The one food item you can't live without
Chickfila!
The one beauty product you can't live without ( a specific makeup, shampoo, lotion, etc): Clarisonic Mia
The one clothing item you can't live without (we'll say that basic underwear/bra/socks are a given): My Joes Jeans.. so comfortable
The one food item you can't live without Cheese :-)This sounds awesome. Where can I find it??
1: My car... that seems like technology to me. It is my comfort blanket. Otherwise, the internet. I live on it.
2: TARTE Mascara. It's all natural and the only brand I've found I'm not allergic to, AND actually works.
3: My summer skirts/dresses. I hate wearing jeans and would probably be a nudist without these.
4: Pasta. I would die without pasta.
It's the Remington Spin Curl and I got mine from Target last winter. I haven't seen it there for a while. The only down side to it is that it only spins the hair in one direction, but once it's styled and pieced out, it's not noticable.
EDIT: In the US it's named "AirWave" and can be found here.
The one beauty product you can't live without: A great daily lotion with SPF 30 or more. Right now I use Philosophy but I switch on and off with a basic Alamay one too, for budget reasons and my skin will get used to one and start getting oilier.
The one clothing item you can't live without: Jeans, I love Gap's curvy line.
The one food item you can't live without: Bacon
My Food Blog

The one clothing item you can't live without (we'll say that basic underwear/bra/socks are a given):
I'm also a Panache Super Bra fan- they're all I wear- they make shirts actually fit well.
The one food item you can't live without:
umm, Diet Dr. Pepper. Or chicken.
Stand up for something you believe in.
Now I do! Swoon! I had their poster in my bedroom and the tape when I was a tween. I'm pretty sure I had a crush on whichever one didn't have the bangs.
The one technology product you can't live without Blackberry
The one beauty product you can't live without ( a specific makeup, shampoo, lotion, etc) Covergirl Trublend pressed powder

What is (be specific with brands!):
The one technology product you can't live without My MacBook Pro. Love. I have a feeling once I get the iPhone it will be that . . . DH would say the iPad, which has basically replaced his now-dead Dell laptop

1. Internet
2. American Crew Fiber hair paste. Yes, it's for men. It's the only thing strong enough to hold up my Jersey-girl pouf, while still making my hair "touchable" and not like a helmet.
3. I bought a robe over the summer that I wear every day. Not fancy, but comfy, and not too shabby for "hang around the house" purposes. The brand is Aria.
4. Eggs. Over medium. Lots of S&P.
1. Technology - my Blackberry (even though it has some bugs and I want to try an iPhone)
2. Beauty product - concealer. Any concealer. I don't care about the brand as long as it hides my random spots!
3. Clothing item - right now I love my gray/white striped Express sweater. My classroom is usually warm, so I love dressing in layers.
