Mary Kay Velocity® Facial Cleanser,5 fl. oz.

Mary Kay Velocity® Facial Cleanser,5 fl. oz.Got it for my girlfriend and she loves it. Was a lot easier going through Amazon than Mary Kay sales.

I have been using this product for about a year now but initially received it as a gift. I did not even know it was Mary Kay until I found it on Amazon, for a great price. My face has a tendency to be dry but I break out whenever I use anything with oil in it. Other cleansers dry my skin out worse or make me break out worse. Velocity Facial Cleanser does not dry my skin AND even if I do use an oily product I don't break out, as long as I wash my face every day with this cleanser. I have searched high and low for a good cleanser; I found the best and the search is over. Thank you.

I got this and some other Mary Kay products as a gift. I tried it out and it works great! Nice clean feeling and the scent is a nice touch too.

Struggled with BAD acne for years!!! Tried EVERYTHING including the Proactive, nothing worked finally my mom bought this off of someone at work who sold Mary Kay, her daughter had the same problems. LOVE IT!!!! At first it seemed as if my face was getting worse but that's how the good medication works! What most people don't realize it that you have acne there already forming. This stuff speeds up the process with what's already there and then prevents it from coming back! Every year my mom gets me 2 bottles for Christmas, it's now to the point where I only use it when I have breakouts which is usually summer (It's humid, I sweat + work in a restaurant with grease!) besides that my face is clear!!! Don't assume it's for girls either I not only have my one cousin using it but also her little brother and this was after I had my guy friend addicted to it!!! This Stuff Works!!!

I love this stuff! It works so well for cleansing and clearing my face. It does make your face dry though, but the Velocity moisturizer fixes that right up. Totally worth the money for the results it gives. I've tried a lot of other facial washes but none were really very effective. This cleared up my awkward high-school gross face. I use this in college as well. I would totally recommend it.

Pelindaba Lavender Body Wash (Shower Gel) with Organic Lavender Essential Oil

Pelindaba Lavender Body Wash with Organic Lavender Essential Oil - 16 fl ozI know it's a bit expensive, but this shower gel is totally worth it. I bought the big size, and it's probably right for the price. The lavender is from a local (washington state) farm, which satisfies many of my hippie impulses, but the most important part is HOW DRATTED AMAZING this smells! Yeah, it cleans your body, but it's easy to get lost in the rich, deep, herbal, pleasant, lavender ... way better than most lavender soaps, which smell like grandma's attic or something.

It lathers nicely but not a whole lot, and it doesn't last on your skin too long after you get out of the shower, but while you're in there soaping up! OMG.

Melvita Apicosma - Cleansing Jelly, 5.9 fl.oz Bottle

Melvita Apicosma - Cleansing Jelly, 5.9 fl.oz BottleThese products from Melvita have been a life, well skin, saver to me.

After years of trying this and that, finally a product line that just works, it nice to the plant and the animals, and feels great.

I know little about the French Company, but their US HO is a joke. Bad service, mistakes on the web site, and slow shipping, when they get around to it.

Was about to give up of them when found the product line here on Amazon.com!

Ahava Moisturizing Salt Soap, 3.40 Ounce

Ahava Moisturizing Salt Soap, 3.40 OunceI love this soap and I have found that my dry skin is not dried out by this salty soap. I first bought this in a discount store. I know I want to continue using this so I am very happy to find that Amazon has it available. Surprisingly, the description says to avoid your face, but I specifically use the bar on my face without any issue. I've been using this soap for over a year and I love it!

I am a big fan of the Ahava Mud Bar Soap and didn't expect to love this one as much, but I prefer it now that it's cold out. The soap is very mild but lathers well. I use it with exfoliating gloves. It is actually very moisturizing and I started to notice a difference after 3 days of use. My skin feels smoother. Very nice. I love the mud bar during the hot months but it didn't help my dry skin once winter hit. I'm glad I switched to this. I also use it on my face, despite the dire warning and have had no issues. My face even feels smoother and I've had no breakouts. The bar is expensive but I only need 1 a month. I switch off between this and Ahava's Mineral shower gel.

Tokyo Milk Dark Body Butter Souffle, No.68 Tomorrow, 6 OunceMy wife tried this and loved it so I ordered her deliveries every three months. It makes her skin soft and smooth, and does away with itching, and it smells heavenly!

Yes To Tomatoes Blemish Clearing Facial Towelettes, 25 Count

Yes To Tomatoes Blemish Clearing Facial Towelettes, 25 CountIf you have a teenager you know how hard it is to get them to clean their face consistently. However, my son loves these and it cleared his face within days. He uses them consistently because of the low maintenance factor. Also got rid of the eczema on his face.

I've tried many brands of facial wipes, and these are my absolute favorite (boots quick thinking wipes are second). These completely remove my makeup --including mascara -and any grime or oil, and they don't leave any residue on my skin. They prevent me from breaking out (which normally happens when I use a wipe at night instead of washing my face, but doesn't with these). The "blemish clearing" aspect is a small amount of salicylic acid (1%) as well as a bit of witch hazel. I have combination skin that dries & flakes easily when overexfoliated or not cared for properly, and these are just as gentle as can be on it. Love them!

These cleaned my face fine, and were gentle enough for my skin (though I didn't risk trying my eye area), but it didn't help my acne at all. I may just have stronger acne than this could handle, or this may work better on someone with more oily skin (I'm dry with acne).

These are large, gentle wipes that don't dry out my skin. I am prone to clogged pores around my nose and chin and can dry out terribly with the wrong product. I can use these around my eyes and they get every bit of mascara (CG lash blast). I've used the Neutrogena wipes too and they leave a slippery feeling on my skin and don't help keep my skin clear. I'll buy these again. I can use one and go right to bed. My skin feels clean and balanced.

Want Yes To Tomatoes Blemish Clearing Facial Towelettes, 25 Count Discount?

I love Yes To Tomatoes! These wipes work really well. I love that they're on the larger side, so I don't have to use more than one at a time. The smell is pleasant and not overwhelming at all. I don't have a lot of acne, so this is perfect to keep my skin clean and clear. I also use the Yes To Tomatoes moisturizer, which keeps my skin constantly smooth. Needless to say, I have found a new favorite in facial care.

Alba Botanica Sea Enzyme Facial Scrub, 4-Ounce Tube (Pack of 2)

Alba Botanica Sea Enzyme Facial Scrub, 4-Ounce Tube This scrub is a wonderful exfoliant, it is the closest replacement to Rachel Perry that i have tried, not as gritty as apricot scrub by st. Ives but its just gritty enough to clean your face and not strip it raw like the micro dermabrasion sea kelp scrub from rachel perry. Not a strong smell and it washes off leaving your face tight and clean.

Leaves skin soft and smooth. Doesn't dry out skin. You can feel the organic ingredients by how it leaves your skin. I highly recommend this item. Gentle, yet effective. Smells great!

Not the old formulation as pictured and listed:

Some ingredients listed for this product are aloe, jojoba wax beads and oil (not in that order). Packaging photo and product information are different too. What was sent to me was the Alba Even Advanced Sea Algae scrub. There's a major difference between the two products. The new "Even Advanced" does not use jojoba wax beads as the exfoliant, but crushed walnut shell. And Dimethicone is listed as the fourth or fifth ingredient in the "Even Advanced". There are more and different ingredients listed in the "Even Advanced". I bought this product, the Sea Algae scrub hoping this was some leftover stock of the old product, as described and pictured. But no, its Alba's new stuff.

It's way too fragrant and slimy (with the Dimethicone) than I like for a scrub, other than the fact that the ingredients are not the same as listed. My husband has oilier skin so he's going to use the two tubes. But I would not reorder this as a Prime delivery because its not the old formulation. It can be found for two to three dollars less elsewhere.

Neova Refining Lift Eye Gelee-0.5 oz

Neova Refining Lift Eye Gelee-0.5 ozI use this eye product every day. It was recommended to my by the lady who does my facial laser work but she said to only put it on around the bone structure not right underneath the eye. I find it good & helpful but its always hard to know if its the best thing to use because there are a million products out there & of course they all say they're the best & that they work so I go with what's recommended to me & if I don't suffer adverse effects then I go with that.

Dermalogica Medibac Clearing Mattifier 1.3 oz

Dermalogica Medibac Clearing Mattifier 1.3 ozThis product does keep me shine-free. When I use it, I don't have the usual greasy build-up on my face at the end of the day. It is not sticky or tacky in any way. When applied, it goes on smoothly and doesn't feel as though it's just sitting on top of my skin.

This product works very well to control an oily face, it goes on smoothly and leaves your skin looking and feeling good. Generally speaking, I have combination skin, but in the hot Arizona summer, it gets sort of oily. This product works well to reduce the oily, slick face of summer. I've used it on the occasional breakouts, and it doesn't realy seem to do too muh there, though. It's more like preventative maintenance. It's not cheap, so I don't think I'll necessarily replace it when I run out, I'll just use it sparingly until I run out (since I'm retired and don't need to dress up every day). If you don't mind the cost, and need to control your facial oil on a daiy basis, then I think you will find this product very useful!

Buy Dermalogica Medibac Clearing Mattifier 1.3 oz Now

This is a great product that keeps oily skin mattified.

I've got oily skin during the warmer seasons and use the Medibac range of products, which often dry out the skin. I therefore use a medium weight moisturiser to compensate for this. I then apply the mattifier on top to control the shine whilst keeping the skin moisturised.

The only precaution I'd provide is to keep it away from sensitive areas around the eye and lips which can get irritated from salicylic acid.

Borghese Creme Extraordinaire Foaming Cleanser - 6.7 oz

Olay Age Defying Instant Hydration Day Cream 1.7 Oz

I like Olay over other products, it doesn't clog my pores and cause acne. It makes my skin feel smooth and hydrated.

Jabu'she North America Jabu'she Facial Tonic, 6.5 OunceI have really oily skin but since I started using the facial tonic along with the Jabu'she cleansers, I've noticed my skin even out a lot.

This tonic is exactly what I need to keep my skin in good condition and pH balanced. I spray it on a cotton pad and dab it onto my face after I wash my face and it doesn't sting, which a tonic shouldn't do! It's better than most of the drug store ones I've tried and it's ingredients make this tonic completely worth it.

Cetaphil Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, For All Skin Types 4 fl ozI think I have the most sensitive skin in the world! Almost every product I put on my face it burns atleast a little to the point that i kind of except it if the product is working and it only burns my face a little I buy it BUT! CETAPHIL didnt burn my super sensitive at all. If you have super sensitive skin like me buy this product so your face wont blow up.I also think it cleans your face pretty good to.

As a cleanser Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser is an effective cleanser, leaving skin smooth and clean. The larger bottle version of the skin cleanser is more cost effective.

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser can also serve as a fragrance free shaving lotion. Razor blade glides really well once the lotion has been applied.

BABOR Cleansing Gel and Tonic

BABOR Cleansing Gel and TonicThis has to be the best facial cleanser I have ever used. I have been using it for about 3 years and I love it. It feels refreshing and has a clean scent to it. It does not burn like some cleaners do. This one bottle if used every day by one person can last for 2 months or more. You get enough cleanser with 1-2 pumps.

Meh, I wouldn't get this again. I have combination, olive toned skin that isn't senstive or prone to breakouts. I feel that this would NOT be for somone who has normal or sensitive skin types. It works ok, lathers well, isn't too drying (it's currently winter in MN) ,doesn't have an absurd scent; however, it's a higher pricepoint and is only mediocre.

The biggest con of this is that it's very runny so it is extremely simple to use too much product making it cost ineffective. This has the consistency of water. As for the two-in-one, I'm indifferent. Every other dermatologist will tell you that tonic or toner isn't effective. Plus, I happen to like product so the versatility of this is lost on me.

Nioxin Scalp Therapy, System 5 (Medium to Coarse/Untreated/Normal to Thin-Looking)

NIOXIN by NioxinI have read many reviews saying that people thought they were buying a type of Nioxin they were familiar with and received a different version of the product (i.e.: old US made formula vs. a later Mexico made one).

I think this is the seller's fault for doing FALSE ADVERTISING! In my case, I wanted the latest formula and received a different bottle than what they advertised here. The product smells, looks, and feels different... I wonder if it even is the real thing... but no way for me to 100% know because it is not what I am familiar with nor what they told me I was buying.

Please DO NOT BUY if you think you are buying the description falsely advertised in this page. I have put a customer image of what you will in reality be receiving... nicely sealed on top with A PIECE OF TAPE from side to side (what a joke!).

>

I've been using Nioxin for over 15 years, exclusively. This is the first product I've ever used that my hair didn't seem to "get used to". Every time I wash my hair, it feels like it is the first time I've used the product. Plus it's been proven to grow hair, if that's important to you.

Buy Nioxin Scalp Therapy, System 5 (Medium to Coarse/Untreated/Normal to Thin-Looking) Now

This is a great product. My hairdresser turned me on to Nioxin in general. The Number 5 series is great for white hair as it is effective but very light on the hair strands. White hair tends to be coarser than your original hair/hair color but still needs some conditioning control. When we moved, I ran out of the Scalp Therapy and asked my new hairdresser to recommend a replacement. I bought her 'best" product, but it felt really heavy in application compared to Nioxin. I finally resorted to buying Nioxin on the web. This local area we're in doesn't carry Nioxin hair systems above number 4, if you can imagine. Try this product. It is great.

This product has been working for me. At one point I was using it for 4 months straight and finally starting seeing results. The corners of my hairline were fading noticeably before I started using it. After 4 months that area started thickening to where half of what used to be fading was filled in. I did stop using it for a few months so it went back to what it was before. I used the whole 3 step system at minimum every other day for 4 months. If you use it you have to be consistent. You also need to have some extra ready when it is about to run out. It is worth spending the few dollars it does cost to keep your hair thick and on your head!

Philosophy Shampoo/Shower Gel/Bubble Bath

Philosophy Mimosa Shampoo/Shower Gel/Bubble Bath, 16 OuncesLet me start by saying that the product works as well as Philosophy's other products. However, I have nearly all of the Philosophy 3-in-1's and I keep hoping that they will get a "vanilla" one right. This "flavor" is even worse than their "Vanilla Ice Cream" in the sense that it barely has a fragrance at all. Whereas "Vanilla Ice Cream" smells (strongly) like the plastic used in shower curtains, this one smells pretty much like the base used in all of Philosophy's 3-in-1's. I certainly do not detect a bit of the "Vanilla Cupcake" fragrance they claim the product should have. What I do detect as a slight fragrance vanishes immediately after the product leaves the bottle. I must say that I am not impressed with Philosophy's new 3-in-1's at this point. The "Vanilla Cupcake" stinks and the "Mimosa" smells like Pina Colada to me. If you want a good Philosophy 3-in-1, get the "Cinnamon Buns", "Pumpkin Pie", "Eggnog", "Spiced Apple Cider", or "Double Rich Hot Cocoa" variations. And always remember that if you use these products as a shampoo, you will need to use a good conditioner afterwards.

I pulled the lid of the Philosphy Vanilla Birthday Cake bottle and inhaled the wonderful smell of vanilla birthday cake. It smells 100% like its glorious namesake. While some people complain about feeling strange bathing in birthday cake or a strawberry milkshake, I think of it as being just another type of aromatherapy. Cake makes me happy, birthdays make me happy, this birthday cake smelling body wash and shampoo really makes me happy!

Plus as a bodywash and shampoo it functions very well. My skin feels smooth, and my hair feels light, silky and not weighed down. My hair still smells a little like birthday cake, which isn't as good the second day, but it's not overpowering. I don't think I will use this as my everyday shampoo, but it is great to throw in a gym bag for a quick after-workout shower.

There's nothing I enjoy more than a Sunday morning mimosa, and now you can have one every morning. This is a refreshing but relaxed scent. Unlike some of Philosophy's products which come on strong, the orange is tempered by the "champagne" undertones. It's the perfect summer bath gel. My husband loves it as well, especially used as a shampoo.

I love these products...for what it is, I use it as a shower gel and the lather is great, doesn't dry me out. But I was excited for a Vanilla Cupcake sented experience... I was dissapointed. I would recommend the other products, the fruity ones, ice cream ones, Key Lime pie for sure..I would not buy this again for the smell.

Want Philosophy Shampoo/Shower Gel/Bubble Bath Discount?

I was so intrigued by being able to shower and come out smelling like a cupcake, but was disappointed. Don't get me wrong, this does smell good and feels soft going on your skin. However, the scent is nothing like a cupcake, more like a cheap vanilla.

I'd recommend trying another scent or buy a cheaper vanilla if that's what you're going for.

Sephora is great as always with prompt shipping and nice packaging.
