Swedish Dream Sea Salt Soap Pack of 4

Swedish Dream Sea Salt Soap Pack of 4I really like the way my skin feels after using this soap. I am a red head with very pale sensitive skin and this works great. I dislike soaps or creams that leave any type of residue on my skin, I prefer a clean soft, touchable result.

Olay Total Effects Body Wash, Exfoliate & Replenish, 8.4 oz

Olay Total Effects Body Wash, Exfoliate & Replenish, 8.4 ozI have a serious penchant for how things smell, so that was the first thing I noticed when I tried Olay Total Effects Body Wash. While I can't tell you what the scent is, I can say that it smells AWESOME.

And it's finally time that a moisturizing body wash comes through with that promise.

After using Olay Total Effects Body Wash for a month, I can spot a noticeable difference in my the softness of my skin.

This body wash also promises to produce more even skin tones. In all honesty, I haven't noticed that (yet) but, considering that all the other claims have more than exceeded my expectation, then I'm thinking my skin may just need a little more time to "even" out.

While it is pricier than I prefer for body wash, I'm willing to pay for quality; and Olay Total Effects body wash is definitly worth paying a little more for.

Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle Body Wash with Peppermint and Eucalyptus - Cruelty-free

Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle Body Wash with Peppermint and Eucalyptus - Cruelty-freeI love this stuff. But you can get it at Trader Joe's for $3.99 a bottle....

I love this body wash. It is very refreshing and leaves your skin feeling tingly and cool from the peppermint. It foams up just fine when you use it with a loofah, it may foam less than other washes because it is sodium lauryl sulfate free. SLS is a foaming agent used in many products including body washes, shampoo, toothpaste and mouthwash. Some people such as myself are sensitive to it. I used to have terrible mouth ulcers almost constantly, but when I stopped using SLS toothpaste and mouthwash they went away almost completely! My skin has been less itchy since switching to this body wash, and I also now use the shampoo and conditioner too.

I love this stuff. I enjoy the aroma and the "tingle". It's very refreshing and invigorating during the my morning shower when I need an energy boost.

First I owe a thank you to the reviewers that said the body wash costs much less in store. I was about to click 'add to cart' and changed my mind. I went in to Trader Joe's and sure enough there it was and only $4. I would GLADLY pay the extra money to order it from Amazon if I did not have a store so close.

+ Smells Great

+ Natural Ingredients

+ Not Packed with Chemicals to Make Suds, so a Loofah or wash cloth is recommended. Pretty good/very good foaming without the chemicals.

+ Leaves a clean, fresh, and cooling sensation on the skin

This is where the negatives go, but there is none! This body wash is awesome!

_Bottom Line_ Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend. I would also not worry about paying a few extra dollars and getting it from Amazon either! If you do not have a Trader Joe's near than just order it here and you will not be disappointed.

Follicleanse Shampoo

Follicleanse Shampoothe ad shows a big bottle and all you get is a tiny one. Hate the false advertising it should be illegal. The product itself was worse! Has ingredients in it that are known to cause problems for scalp...sodium laureth sulfate (largest ingredient besides water)...and my scalp itched worse and got worse since I switched to this from Demarest. Worst money Ive ever spent and first time Ive ever felt the need to review or complain in print! Dont buy this!

I suffer from very oily hair/ithcy dry scalp and this product is great! Within 2 days of using it I notice the biggest difference. My hair and scalp feel and look healthy and even after 24 hrs of washing my oil levels are down by 75%. (Crazy I know...) I was skeptical at first because I have tried alot of different "dandruff/fine oily" shampoos and none can even come close to the results that Follicleanse has shown. I think the shampoo smells good, like an faint herbally clean smell, nothing overpowering at all. (not anything close to the smell of dog shampoo) I wanted to try this first before ordering the Plus version and this seems to be working perfectly. I will be recommending this to all of my family/friends who have the same condition.

Was looking for help for my oily hair and dry scalp. Descriptions seemed good but it just didn't clean both hair and scalp evenly. It was ok but not good enough to use long term.

I rotate between using this shampoo and the prescription shampoo my doctor recommended. My scalp feels great when I use this shampoo no itchy sore spots afterwards. However, I'm not that thrilled with the smell...slightly like doggie shampoo. This scent doesn't seem to linger in the hair though.

I was looking for a substitute for Nexxus Aloe Rid clarifying shampoo but this shampoo made my hair feel like straw. Can't use it at all.

Proactiv Solution Cleansing Soap Bar (Single) 5.25 Oz./150g

Proactiv Solution Cleansing Soap Bar 5.25 Oz./150gWhen it came in i waited a few days to use it and the day after i used the bar on my face, and it works i saw the diffrence right away. I thought it would take like a week but it didnt. The reason why i got this is because i thought it would be fast acting, and it is so i recommend this to anyone. My face looked so much better and less oily. The soap bar also brought out some of my natural features on my face and looked healthier.

the delievery was prompt and on time. and the Bar soap does the trick. I use it for my heat rash and blemishes on my back and in about 3 days I started to see the difference. Awesome! highly reccomend

These bars really work to keep my back and face clean from acne. I bought the bars online instead of ordering it from Proactiv. I believe you cannot order products from ProActiv unless signing up for an automatic shipments from them. I only want to order bars when I need them and this allowed me to do that.

Alba Sea Lettuce Cleansing Milk, 6.0-Ounce Bottle (Pack of 2)

Alba Sea Lettuce Cleansing Milk, 6.0-Ounce BottleQuite simply, this is a gentle, invigorating face wash. It has a beautiful flowery scent and is silky to the touch. I use it once or twice a day, every day.

The best part: it's cruelty-free and contains no animal ingredients.

I never thought I'd break my loyalty to Cetaphil but alas, they aren't cruelty-free. As awesome as that cleanser was, I daresay that this one is even better. So glad I made the switch.

As I hit my 40s, I started having rosacea type symptoms. This product is great as it does not irritate at all. I recommend this product.

G.M. Collin Deep Cleansing Solution - 7 oz

G.M. Collin Deep Cleansing Solution - 7 ozI use many of GM Collin's products for oily and acne-prone skin (especially the Acne Complex, which is amazing), but this cleanser caused an eye allergy for me. It took me two months to figure out that it was this cleanser--my eyes were never puffy, it just felt like something was in there. I went to the opthamologist and they couldn't find anything. Finally, one day I used the cleanser directly on my eyes to rinse off some eye makeup, and that's when my eyes swelled up. Once I stopped using the cleanser, my eyes cleared up within 2 days!

Unfortunately this product didn't work for me, but like I said, there are many other products in this line that are great.

Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System

Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System, WhiteI like the Mia for it's smaller size and portability. My sister has the Clarisonic Plus, but I am much more frugal than she is so I bought the Mia for the better price tag. There are some considerable differences between the 2 products, here are a few:

1) One cycle runs for 1 minute then turns off on the Mia. You are able to set the cycle for the Plus for 1 or 2 minutes. Additionally, the Plus beeps when you are supposed to move to a different area of your face. You can always just run the cycle again on the Mia if it's not long enough though.

2) The Mia is smaller, though the brushhead is the same diameter. The Mia is also much lighter than the Plus.

3) The Mia has a powercord (attaches magnetically to the unit and is waterproof where it attaches), the Plus has a cradle.

4) You cannot use the body brush with the Mia (biggest disadvantage for me, as I didn't realize this when I purchased it).

All in all, if you are just planning to use the brush to cleanse your face and don't need the body brush, then I think the difference between the two doesn't warrant the large hike in price.

Summary:

My skin problems probably aren't going to be resolved by anything short of prescription medication, so all I expected from the Mia was thorough cleaning and maybe some help with blackheads. The Mia's more than met those expectations. I'll be replacing it if/when it stops working and I definitely recommend it if you have the money but don't expect miracles for severe acne.

Details:

I'm Asian (Filipino/Chinese) with a medium-olive skin tone. I consider my skin to be fairly strong toners and AHA products tingle slightly but don't hurt, and I don't have any fine lines or wrinkles at age 38. My skin's very oily and there's a lot of hyperpigmentation. I have severe adult-onset acne due to hormone imbalance milia on my chin, blackheads on my nose, cystic acne frequently on my cheeks and jawline and infrequently on my forehead (gets worse based on my monthly cycle), and infrequent whiteheads anywhere.

My current skin care regimen is Murad at night and a mild bead-type exfoliator during my morning shower, but I'm not very good at sticking to it usually I use the Mia in the shower and just remove my makeup at night.

I've been using the Mia since mid-July more or less once a day, every time I wash my face. Here's what I've noticed:

My skin is still oily in fact, it almost seems like it's *more* oily because the pores are clearer. Not an issue for me since I discovered Urban Decay's Deslick in a Tube (highly recommended if you have very oily skin!)

My pores are much less apparent, especially when I'm wearing makeup. Without makeup they still look pretty big to me, but I'm in the habit of studying my face in the mirror from two inches away. I'm comfortable that they're clear and not visible to others, especially if I blot or otherwise manage the oil.

No or slight effect on hyperpigmentation some darkening has faded, but it tends to fade for me over a few months anyway.

No effect on the cystic acne.

No effect on whitehead frequency or severity.

The milia, which had persisted for months regardless of treatments, creams, and scrubs, are much reduced, both in appearance and amount. I can still see some bumps, but they're not white, and my chin is smoother. I don't feel like a casual observer would notice anything. This was unexpected and AWESOME all of my reading about milia led me to believe that they couldn't be removed by anything short of a visit to a professional, so I'd pretty much resigned myself to just dealing with it for a while.

The blackheads are gone. In the past I had cleared and prevented blackheads with a weekly Biore strip, an overnight mask applied to my nose every other night (every night was too drying), and scrubbing with an exfoliator in the morning. Using the Mia has pretty much eliminated the blackhead issue entirely.

I like the Mia a lot my skin feels cleaner and smoother in the areas I'm not prone to blemishes. It feels sturdy & comfortable to use. Like other reviewers, I'd be happier if it paused every ten or twenty seconds to help with timing the cleaning. That feature's available with the larger Clarisonic, but frankly I don't really want anything larger than the Mia. I've had no problems with recharging the Mia only weekly.

If you decide to purchase, I'd recommend picking up some makeup remover wipes as well; it's alarming how dirty the brush looks when it's covered with foundation, and I got paranoid that all the makeup on the brush wasn't letting the Mia get my face really clean and ended up washing my face a second time.

I received this as a gift and was skeptical it would be worth its price. I saw significant change in the tone and clarity of my skin in less than a month. The clincher was when others complimented my skin, unprompted. I was also hesitant to add yet another step to my skin care routine but it's very quick and easy. I would recommend it to anyone thinking about purchasing this.

I received the Mia as a Christmas gift and I love to use it in the shower. I do have one concern though and you who are reading this and thinking about buying one should know: when you charge it (and you're supposed to for 24hrs upon first use)it MAKES NOISE. It makes a small, pulsing, chirping noise like a cricket. This may not be a problem for those of you with big houses where you can plug it in to charge somewhere far away from where you are, say, trying to sleep. But if you have an apartment and don't have that option, argh! Annoying. Otherwise, it is a good product (I just don't know why they thought it would be a good idea to have it chirp annoyingly while it is charging).

Want Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System Discount?

I cannot believe the difference in my skin after using the Mia for 1 1/2 months. This winter I experienced extremely dry skin that could not be helped no matter how much moisturizer I used. I experienced occasional blackheads and unsightly pores. My major problem with most cleansers is that I have a mild case of rosacea that does not necessitate special treatment but can result in irritation with strong cleansers.

My routine is as follows. Every morning, I use Clinique dramatically different moisturizer followed by my Smashbox makeup. In the evening, I remove my eye makeup using neutrogena eye makeup remover.Then I use my Mia with Neutrogena gentle cleanser. I use the delicate brush for my MIa because the sensitive one that it came with was just a little too much for me. After washing my face, I pat it with a towel so that it is just slightly damp and apply my Clinique moisturizer in a heavy coat.

To say that my skin has improved is a gross understatement. My hair stylist actually commented on how great my skin looks. This is a huge compliment from someone who is up close and personal with faces all day long. My pores are practically invisible, and I have absolutely no acne. The problem with flaky skin has disappeared, and my skin looks younger than it has in years.

The only wish I have for my Mia is that it would have a timer to indicate when to move from one part of the face to another. My sister's Plus has that, and she loves it.

Olay Fresh Effects Bead Me Up! Exfoliating Cleanser

Olay Fresh Effects Bead Me Up! Exfoliating CleanserI should start out by saying that my skin is in excellent condition. I've always been blessed with clear, flawless, normal skin. I also have been eating even healthier than I did before so my skin looks better. The only down side to my skin is it is extremely sensitive. Many facial washes have made it burn or itch.

With that being said because Olay discontinued the age infinity facial wash, and then the Pro X I was left looking for a new facial wash. This looked okay... The GOOD news is no itching or chemical burns, which I always worry about... It also leaves my skin feeling clean and not dry or oily. HOWEVER, I have discovered that it is making my skin red and blotchy looking. It does not go away an hour or so after washing my face. Now it's like my skin is red and blotchy all of the time. I will not buy this product again, unfortunately. I have been a fan of olay for probably 5 plus years now but I may even switch brands. Any time I find a product I love they discontinue it.

NCN Pro Skincare Microfiber Cleansing Cloth (12 X 12)

NCN Pro Skincare Microfiber Cleansing ClothI started an aggressive skin care routine recently that works by turning over skin cells at a rapid pace, thereby creating a lot of peeling and flaking skin. I read on a blog somewhere that the NCN Pro Skincare Microfiber Cleansing Cloth really helps exfoliate and reduce the flaking/peeling skin. I had no idea this product would work so well. I have virtually no problems with peeling and flaking since using it. The product is inexpensive and delivers. It truly earns a five star review from me.

The only negative remark I can make is that perhaps it works TOO well. When I first tried using it I scrubbed too hard on my face and left it feeling raw. Now I know to use it in a gentler fashion and I have no problems. I also began using it on my chest and it helps with the mild acne that I am prone to in this region.

I bought this from ncn website among other skincare items and I love them all! This truly exfoliates and leaves ur skin feeling wonderful! I'm not kidding...she knows her stuff and responds personally to emails. U won't be disappointed.

Awkward to hold and use because the cloth is rather thick and the texture somewhat strange. It would be easier to use if it came in the shape of a fingerless glove. Also, since you're supposed to use first one side and then the other, I had assumed that perhaps the two sides would be different, but they look and feel exactly the same. Does my skin look or feel better after usage? Not that I can see or feel.

Manuka Honey and Propolis Soap

Manuka Honey and Propolis SoapI use this soap daily in combination with East Cape New Zealand Manuka Honey Active UMF 20+ and Manuka Oil 100% Pure East Cape 10ml/0.34oz to treat adult acne (see my other reviews). The hexagon/honeycomb shape of the soap is not only a nice touch in keeping with the honey theme but it actually makes this soap super-easy to grip. Regular bar soaps slip out of my hand constantly in the shower but not this one! It has a pleasantly mild, natural smell. Of course, you're not going to spend $8 for one piece of soap no matter how cute the packaging or shape, or how pleasing the scent, or how ergonomic the design. What you are really looking to pay for is a super-high quality, natural antibacterial soap. The fact that this one not only delivers on that but provides all the other fun features as well, is what makes this great soap a real winner. It leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth, not dried out like regular soap. Just one of these bars has lasted six months of daily use (1-2 showers per day) so it's a great value. I just bought my second bar and plan on buying this stuff for as long as they make it!

I have psoriasis, and my skin has not felt this good in years. I use it on my face too, and it is wonderful. I love it so much, I look forward to taking a shower. I love this soap, it makes my skin feel wonderful. It is true that it has a strong fragrance. I am allergic to some smells, and some strong perfumes, but this doesn't bother me, actually I like it, although it is strong enough that it would interfere with a perfume. I have used it in the morning, applied no other fragrance and have had people ask me what perfume I was wearing, and said it smelled good.

For the past 4 years, during the warm weather (June through October) I get a rash where the underwire of my bra rests. I politely like to refer to it as a heat rash. However, my Doctor advises that it is a fungal infection rash. I have tried several creams and powders. Both over the counter and Doctor prescribed and none of them worked. Most of them did not even help.

After reading the reviews for Manuka Honey & Propolis Soap, I thought is was worth a try. I used the soap twice a day, for 9 days and the rash was gone. Completely gone! Now I'm using it once a day and even on the hottest days, there is no sign of its return. This soap lathers well. Just roll it in wet hands for a few seconds. The soap smells nice and it leaves the skin felling clean, but not dried-out. I love this soap!

This soap combines great sudsing with a wonderful pure honey fragrance. It is so easy to handle in the shower because of the shape and lasts a long time. I love it! I think it is only slightly more expensive than most specialty bar soaps, but the fragrance alone is worth it, especially if you absolutely love honey.

This is the second time that I have ordered Manuka Honey Propolis soap. I had great service both times I dealt with this family owned company. My wife and daughter, they both have very delicate skin, and they have tried many different kinds and brands of soap, with more less the same result: itchy and dry skin. After they tried the Manuka soap they won't use any other soap, they loved the smell and the way their skin feels. So, I know that I will be ordering frequently from this outstanding vendor.
