a friend of mine recommented this towel to me, 6 years ago, in summer vacations, and i haven t use any other sponge in my everyday shower ever since! it s really great in mild exfoliation, but works great as an ordinary sponge too, making great mousse out of any shower gel or soap! i ve read that some girls cut it in pieces to make it smaller and last longer. JUST DONT DO THAT!!! it s size is just perfect, because, using it as a sponge, u just fold it many times to make it sponge- sized, and hold more soap in it this way. AND it s most precious use, even better than that of exfoliating, is that IT S A PERFECT BACK- BRUSH WHEN IT IS UNFOLDED!!!! u just hold each edge with each hand and you can brush your back, alone, perfectly!!! thus, u have no need of those hudge back-brushes that hold bacteria after a short time!! u have a sponge, an exfoliating glove and a back- brush , with this thin towel alone!!! it dries in minutes and it s perfect to take in a trip and have it back in your bag dry , the day you depart... it s one of these hg items that are genius, effective, easy to have and hold AND CHEAP at the same time!! i love this kind of products, i ll never replace this one .NOT EVER!!!

my perfect match in mu color is no125 of MUFE. i m close to nc25 in mac, but the nc are a bit yellowish for me and the nw are a bit rose. in careblend powder i bought the medium plus, which seems to be a little dark, but it is n really!!! it is just a little colored and gives to medium light skin tone, just a dewy and soft look which i find very flattering. i rarely use powders becausei find that they make the skin look dull no matter how lightly i put them. this powder s texture is like no other i ve ever tried. not drying out the skin neither looks cakey, just softly settles makeup and gives alittle color in pale skin. i can even use it with the sponge , which a never do in other powders because this makes them look too heavy on my skin i love this powder from the first day i bought it and put it on without any othe make up, just over my cream and mac s dandy mineral blusher on top of it and looked just great!

i m IN LOVE with a body cream!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i first bought the EDT and the body lotion when they first came in london where i was in a trip, since it was available in my country about 2-3 years later... i liked it so much, finished all of the lotion and left some of the EDT just to have some to smell and use rarely and didnt buy any, for years. i recently put some on, and remembered how much i like it, went to a shop and discovered the whole body range. i bought the body cream, went back home,had a shower and used it... it smelled and felt so so so so SO SO gorgeously!!!!!!!!! i couldnt stop smelling my skin and felt extremely good!!!!!!!!! smells fresh , yet sensual, VERY feminine, creamy ,SEXY (i hope my bf agrees on this), i just wanted to eat me up!!!!!!! i also bought the EDP and the deodorant. i use just deodorant and the cream when i stay at home or just go to work and put the EDP when i go out at night or have the mood for something more intence. I ABSOLUTELLY LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEE NR FOR HER!!!!!!!!! ESPECIALLY THE CREAM AND THE EDP i m a parfume addict, but this is going to be my HG parfume!!!!
