Lotions/ Creams -Komenuka Bijin - Body Cream
sbender 3/3/2013 1:36:00 PM
I do not know why this fabulous body cream has so negative reviews. Well, in my opinion it is one of the best body moisturizer I have ever used. Yes, it is thick, but it spreads easily, and it leaves your skin so wonderfully smooth, and moisturized. There are no synthetic perfumes, no alcohol, and as almost all Japanese products, this is so superior to other, overpriced and overhyped Western skincare products. Highly recommended for people with dry skin! Thanks Komenuka Bijin!

Absolutely amazing moisturizer at great price! I use it on my hands since they are so dry, especially in winter. It does not leave my hands greasy which is very important, and absorbs quickly. Amazing drugstore product!

Cleansers -Unlisted Brand - Tata Harper Regenerating Cleanser
sbender 1/12/2013 8:59:00 PM
While I love Tata Harper's Reparative Moisturizer, like her Floral Essence and her Serum, I do not like her body oil, and I absolutely do not like this cleanser. Seriously? $75.00 USD for this cleanser? What is so special about this cleanser that is so expensive? Absolutely nothing in my opinion. It did absolutely nothing special to my skin. Skip it. She has some good products, but this one is not worth the money. Note: Luckily, I did not purchase this product in full size. I have a deluxe sample (15 ml).

Deodorants -Unlisted Brand - Soapwalla- Deodorant Cream
sbender 1/4/2013 8:50:00 AM
I am not happy with this "natural" deodorant. It was pretty good the first week or two, and then I developed a redness with itchiness, and unfortunately had to stop using it. I do not have a sensitive skin, and this is the first time I experienced an allergic reaction to a skin care product. I like the application a lot, the smell is good, but these "natural" ingredients are not that harmless as they look like. I am starting to hate this overhyped movement about natural skin care cosmetics. Not everything natural is good. I am going back to my regular deodorant that works, and despite the synthetic ingredients does not cause me any trouble.

Moisturizers -Unlisted Brand - Rodin - Olio Lusso

This product is really nothing special for that price. Actually, it is a joke. I do not know what happened in my head that I purchased this face oil. It does nothing to my skin. It is not even moisturizing as it claims. The transparent bottle only looks nice, but it actually is a joke since oils have to be stored in a nontransparent bottle. Do yourself a favor, and make your own oil blend in a proper drop bottle.

Treatments -Unlisted Brand - Tata Harper Rejuvenating Serum
sbender 12/19/2012 12:46:00 PM
Unfortunately, not so impressive for that price. It is a nice lotion (although it is called serum?) with a lovely herbal scent. I personally like the scent; for some people, the scent could be too strong and headache-inducing. Upon application, it makes your skin very soft. It is not that moisturizing; at least it did not heal my dry patches on cheeks. Overall, it is a nice product. But! After a few weeks of using it twice per day I have not noticed any drastic change regarding my skin. I have the same effect (smoothing) using my own oil blend (rose hip, jojoba...), or with an organic face cream that cost me $30.00 USD. If you do not mind paying for a nice product doing nothing special, you would probably love this lotion. If you mind, skip it. Besides, there are no published double-blinded scientific studies that could prove what Tata Harper claims. So, no scientific data that support "anti-aging" properties of her ingredients. Bottom line: I would not purchase it again. I hope this helps!
