Masks -L'Occitane - Rice Clarifying Mask
prissy973 11/15/2010 4:49:00 AM
this product did nothing for me. I think I spent around 35 bux on it. Recently I received my 500 point gift at Sephora, and in it included Murad claryfying Mask, a way better trade up. . I used to be a big L'occitaine fan, I bought their moisturizers which are decent, eye cremes and body cremes. Now I only buy their hand cremes or soaps.

Lotions/ Creams -Unlisted Brand - soaptopia 50/50 body balm in Rozilla
prissy973 11/11/2010 9:20:00 AM
I couldn't stop putting this product on last night. I used their shaving soap in rosewood yesterday which is a similar scent. Yes, the old school shaving bars which I will comment about once I get the proper English bristle brush to use with it. So I have tons of butters, balms, lotions, cremes, whatever you want to call it. But this is suppse to be 50% decadent cream and 50% indulgence and boy did they take the words right out of my mouth! It has vanilla oil in it so you have to swirl it around a few times to get it to mix with the rest of the butter. You can tell all their stuff is homemade. Love it!

Bath Treatments -Unlisted Brand - Soaptopia salt soak Eucalyptus & Tea Tree for muscles
prissy973 11/11/2010 9:03:00 AM
Since my bf and I have moved into an apartment close to his work I;ve rarely exercised. But it has been stressful living all by ourselves so I've dropped some weight recently and when I stay on my legs all day, my muscles get sore. I accidentally found this website, soaptopia.com (all kthere products are JUNK free and homemade), and although I didn't buy any soaps (I'm very loyal Lush customer) I did buy a few other things. One of them included this. So i poured a small heap into my bathub. Mind you my bf had just taken a long shower so the water wasn't even warm. So i know for a fact it was the salts that helped relax my muscles and not the "hot water" which can also be very helpful in doing that. As a Lush junkie I buy so many of there various products and only 1/3 claim to do what what they actually say. But this product really did help relax mhy muscles and this morning my legs aren't sore at all. Will stash the rest for a long day.

Cleansers -Ren - ClearCalm Anti-Blemish Clay Cleanser
prissy973 11/10/2010 7:02:00 PM
i used a sephora code and i got a trial size of this. I always hear about people saying how there pimples cleared up with some "miracle": product but I never experienced this till today. I received my 500 point reward and in it contained Murad claryfying cleanser which I have been meaning to get just wasn't sure about it. Well my skin got instantly better with that. Right now I used this Ren product (after using kate somerville exfoliate) and I put a little in my hand, definitely not enough to massage for 1 mintue according to the directions. SO I let it sit there. Man my skin looked instantly better, my pimples shrunk. It was awesome! Maybe cause it was the first time I used it but WOW. My pimples are smaller and for some reason in the past month my skin hass looked terrible and I think it is the Vichy normaderm, a new product I introduced, SO with my terrible skin, I used this product and I got instant results. I hope it has the same effects everytime I use it.

Eyeliner -Prestige - Liquid Eyeliner
prissy973 10/30/2010 5:52:00 PM
i've been using this liquid eyelner for over 10 years. i love how the felt tip glides across my eye lid. It' very easy to create a cat like swoop by your eye lids. This is my HG eyeliner because it stays on long, I don't have to worry about smudges and I can be creative. BONUS its under 10 bux and one tube lasts a while.

Treatments -evanhealy - sea algae serum
prissy973 10/13/2010 3:46:00 PM
I had never heard of evanhealy before. I bouggth this serum from a small organic store and for the small bottle i paid close to 40 dollar so I certainly don't think it's affordable. Anyways, I use Katesomerville exfoliate which also uses sea and agae minerals and I love the product, When I bought this one I always use a toner before putting it on, and it feels quite different than other serums. It is very light and doesn't block any pores. I just started using it. I read the reviews and I'm kind of interested in other evanhealy products. I'm not sure if I would buy this again. I would have to use it longer.

Treatments -Unlisted Brand - La-Brasiliana - Dieci all-in-one instant Hair treatment
prissy973 10/11/2010 11:28:00 PM
This is one of the spray leavin treatments that I would buy again. It has keratin and collagen that makes my hair silky smooth. But of course I had to use a special routine. Since I have so many hair products I decided to give Chi a go considering I just bought their straightener (the Sedu is way better in all aspects) For the best results,I ued their infra shampoo and chi infra treatment. THEN i used matrix color guard mask. My hair is colored and fried with a couple of extensins so I always need nourishment. I put my hair into 5 diffeent clips and sprayed the Dieci on 2 inch pieces and combed tem through my hands, Then I added chi straight guard, Used the chi iron guard in 4 inch piences then used then chi straightener. Then for the final touch used chi silk infusion and Perfecto!

Self Tanners -Unlisted Brand - Sevin Nyne by Lindsay Lohan Spray Tan
prissy973 10/9/2010 1:12:00 AM
unless your an artist and can spray the same continous motion (at 12 inches a part and not miss a spot) THIS PRODUCT IS NOT FOR YOU. I walked myself through the online tutioral that is on her website and I was in the surprise of my lifetime.It gets very messy cause you should use the spray in the shower (unless you want to set down a bunch of white towels and wash them afterward) and after you spary your entire body as per the instructions,my bathtub looked like smeone has drawn grafiti on it, Needles to say the effort in cleanyly notthat not worth it. When i dried up i noticed I was splochy, darker in some areas tha other. My face same out horrible. Two thumbs down Linsday!

Lotions/ Creams -LUSH - Creme Anglaise
prissy973 10/5/2010 4:24:00 AM
i've been in love with this product when it first came out, it has saffron in it which is more expensive than gold in many countries. Persians use saffron in many of there dishes (I'm persian). But that is not why I fell in love with this product, It is so smooth, and it is thicker than a lotion so it is moistuizing. Not the most moisturizing product I've used, but it seeps into your skin well. And the smell just takes me to some tropical island. I use it all over my body (besides my face, I just started using Baby face) and my body smells out of this world for hours. There is no other lotion that smells like this creme. This is my HG lotion. kisses to the people at lush. At 50 bux a pot for the creme it is a bit pricey. But I don't use this as an everyday lotion. Just on the weekends or when I want to pamper myself.

Lotions/ Creams -Korres - Quince Body Butter
prissy973 10/5/2010 4:05:00 AM
I bought this product at sephora several months ago but i have so many unopened HE lotions and body butters I felt like I should wait. For a lotion, yes it is on the thicker side but i'm used to body butters and products made solely of shea (from l'occitane). So this didn't seem think for me. However it was moisturizing and it went strainght in my skin, I didn'y care much for the spicy fruit scent but my boyfriend of 3 years (poor thing has smelled so many lotions i'm surprised his sense of smell can tell the difference between verbena or Trish by Trish Mcevoy). But he liked it, and I mostly use my lotions so i can smell good for him. Korres is also a greek product which I never knew. But anyhow, I'm very pleased with it. The only con is the big cap that I lost the day I opened it. For my lotions and butters (unless they're in a tub) I'd like to have a cap that attached to the bottle. Anyways 2 thumbs up, and in 5 years when I'm almost done with my lotions/crenes/body butters this will be something I would repurchase.

Toners -Elizabeth Arden - Refining Toner Lotion
prissy973 9/30/2010 2:23:00 AM
I would have to agree with the other reviewers. This is a basic toner ehich does nothing more than take the last traces of your makeup off. I just used it twice tonight once wirh origins have a nice day and agsin with clinique dramatically different gel and all my skin barely feels different. Waste of $20. Do not purchase this product, Buy a l'oreal toner at the pharmacy if you have to but don't waste your money on this.

Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel
prissy973 9/30/2010 2:10:00 AM
I bought the jumbo bottle and it's too thin. Even though I can see how it can be helpful for people who have clogged pores (like me), I needed get any moisturization (i don't know if that is a word) out of it. It's a very light facial ,moisturizer that does seep right into your face which is the only reason I like it. I use alot of produsts to help unclog pores and peels but I like to have a duenching moisturizers which is why I don't feel that this is for me. It is nice to have it but I rarely use it. When I use my daily moisturizer I want it to help restore my skin and have anti aging benefits which this lotion lacks. But if I were to go back to my teenage years, I would definitely repurchase this.

Lip Gloss -Laura Mercier - Violet Glace
prissy973 9/22/2010 8:53:00 PM
I first got the duo which looked wonderful. I loved it so much I decided to repurchase it again and bought several other LM glace, and a lip liner in plumberry (all bought recently) The violet duo looked great on me for the first couple uses. But then I was like, hmm this isn't that much of a big deal I had made it out to be. The duo has a bonus with the shimmer. I wanted to buy a lipliner that went along with it and I tried christian dior automatic liners (i hate pencils) but I settled with plumberry Laura Mercier which looks great with the violet. After purchasing it twice, I can see how people would like it but I sat there and looked at myself and thought there was nothing too special about this color. I loved it in the begining! (this is in a span of a month mind you). So i may buy it again but the quality doesn't seem different than that of the drugstore lip glosses besides the duo because you have the luxury of having a HE shimmer along with the violet to enhance your lips.

Lotions/ Creams -Unlisted Brand - LoLLIA _ Imagine Handcreme
prissy973 9/16/2010 8:45:00 PM
The packaging is by far one of the perks of this product. It uses light pastel colors that give you a feeling of innocence. The handcreme itself has shea butter in it along with macadamia and avocado oils which makes it a very rich cream. Just a dab will fully moisturize both your hands and the smell is indescribable. Well, it's called IMAGINE.
