Cleansers - DHC - Deep Cleansing Oil

3.0

8 months ago

I bought this product on the strength of the reviews here, so was eager to try it.
My initial reaction was good. I really liked the smell and the slip. It was hard to gauge how much product to use since I hadn't used a cleansing oil before. My skin liked it at first, but then I started breaking out. I have high hopes that it wasn't the cleansing oil because I made several other …

Treatments (Face) - CLINIQUE - Repairwear Laser Focus

5.0

Nov/27/2010

Can I seriously rave about this product? You bet I can! Honestly, no other single product has done more for my skin than Repairwear Laser Focus. I know that everyone reacts differently and sees different results, but I am so beyond pleased that this one is a complete HG item for me. I've been applying it twice a day, three drops at a time, for six weeks and my skin has never looked …Read more

Lotions/ Creams - KORRES Natural Products - Body Butter - Guava

2.0

Jan/30/2010

I've never been a fan of guava, or anything remotely tropical, when it comes to body care. I should have ignored the sales at Sephora and continued walking. I have enjoyed every single Korres product to date, and let me tell you, visiting their flagship store in Soho on my birthday was like a trip to mecca. Kid in a candy store. Anyway, I decided to take a risk and bought 2 tubes of …Read more

Lotions/ Creams - KORRES Natural Products - Yogurt cooling after sun face and body gel

Jan/30/2010

I bought this on the strength of favourable reviews here and I don't think I'll ever catch myself without it. I'm fair-haired and freckled and burn fairly easily and nothing ruins a vacation more than a nasty sunburn. So I did my research and picked up a bottle of this from Sephora in preparation for my annual jaunt to Cuba. I kept it in the fridge and it was such a treat to …Read more

Skincare - Face - Cellex-C - BetaPlex New Complexion Face Cream

5.0

Jan/15/2010

Okay, let me just say I LOVE this product. It was in the High Potency Serum kit that I bought on the Shopping Channel along with a couple of other products. I use it as part of my nightly routine and love it. I find as I'm ageing, I need more moisturizing products and this one is light enough and emmoliant enough while having the benefits of an AHA. The texture feels smoth and silky …Read more

Moisturizers - Cellex-C - Seline-E

3.0

Jan/15/2010

I got this product as part of a kit from the Shopping Channel. I wouldn't have bought this on its own, but I can't live without my Cellex-C serum and this cream came along for the ride.

I find the texture a little thick for a face cream and when I apply it, I use more than I think I should and I find I really need to rub it in. I like the mattifying properties and …

Treatments (Face) - Mario Badescu - Drying Cream

4.0

Jan/15/2010

I got this product in a very generous sample kit after filling out their questionaire online. Regarding the product itself, I don't like the fact that it comes in a jar. It would be nicer to squeeze it out of a tube rather than having to gouge into the product with your fingers. It's also insanely thick so I usually scoop out too much or not enough. The smell is medicinal...not …Read more

Lotions/ Creams - Aveeno - Skin Relief Moisturizing Lotion

Jan/15/2010

I was suffering extremely itchy skin with the occasional rash on my legs. I was never one to apply a body moisturizer on a regular basis...saving it more for those "spa" days. I blame ageing and dry winters, though, for making me rethink this. I hunted through MUA and thought to give Aveeno a try.

I bought the lotion in tube form at a very reasonable sale price. I find …

Cleansers - Philosophy - The Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash

4.0
Created with Sketch.

Jan/15/2010

I was looking for a face wash with manual exfoliating properties and thought I would give this one a try based on the strength of reviews here. I decanted it into a pump and keep it in my shower and use it as part of my morning routine. It has no noticeable smell, which is a great thing. And the grains feel mildly abrasive without being scratchy. My face feels fresh and clean without being …Read more

Gels/ Soaps - Molton Brown - Invigorating Ginseng Shower Gel

5.0
Created with Sketch.

May/24/2009

I got this as a deluxe sample with purchase from the Soho store and have completely fell in love with it. The smell is masculine, which is perfect. It's got a clean, soapy, almost citrusy smell and it lingers in the bathroom and on my skin for a very long time. In fact, I just shower with it and forego any cologne and people compliment me on my scent for hours afterward. The lather is …Read more
