Aloetouch Premium Cleansing Wipes, Scented - Case

Aloetouch Premium Cleansing Wipes, Scented - CaseI was introduced to this products while my 90 years old mother was hospitalized a few month ago. The hospital gave Mom the used pack to take home.

I love the size and the strength of the individual sheets as well as the softness. We tried different brand but they were too small.

I was very please to find Aloetouch Premium Cleansing wipes the same that the hospital used at a good price through Amazon. It was delivered very fast too.

The only drawback is that they are not flushable and I have to remind mother about it.

A case of these wipes were originally given to me as a baby shower gift. They are my favorite! The wipes have a great scent, and are gentle enough on the skin to give my baby a quick wipe down. They are larger in size than most wipes, and definitely more durable. I find that I can use less of these wipes than I can most others. One of these can perform the task of 2 or 3 of most store bought baby wipes. They are definitely worth giving a try.

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!!!

Want Mary Kay Velocity® Facial Cleanser,5 fl. oz. Discount?

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.

Hydro Body Sponge with Hand Strap- Rose ( Multi-Pack)

Earth Therapeutics Hydro Body Sponge, with Hand Strap, RoseI thought a shower pouf is a pouf, so I bought this whole pack. I now know that not all shower poufs are created equal. Firstly, this does not have a nice little "yarn" like loop thing to hang it with. They kind of made a loop out of the mesh itself and it is very thick and very hard to use. My biggest problem however is that this pouf is VERY rough. It actually turned my skin bright red. I would not recommend this pouf unless you have tough skin.

Very*Berry Organic Oxygen Masque & Scrub with Antioxidants, Vitamin C & Superberries - NEW

Very*Berry Organic Oxygen Masque & Scrub with Antioxidants, Vitamin C & Superberries - NEWI don't write reviews generally speaking, but I couldn't resist due to the joy these products have brought to my life and the fact that all the company activities are founded and based in United States of America. I turned 37 this year and my face was beginning to lose its glow...It was quite disappointing giving that I exercise often and have a very active outdoor life style (as I live in a climate that reflects 75-85 degree weather all year round). Not to mention, I only eat organic fruits and vegetables (no animals)... Thereby, the immediate results of life and glow I achieved from using a combination of sweesensations products over the past six months have been phenomenal!

The most important factors about these products are:

1. All Natural

2. Made, tested, Manufactured, Owned and Represented in the United States of America (Extremely, important when many jobs are going overseas. This statement may sound weird from a person who currently resides overseas, as there was little to no career growth for me there in my home of the USA; so I had to outsource my skills. Thereby, any chance I have to purchase and support American made products, I will)

3. Customer Service is beyond Excellent (I don't like spending money where its not valued)

4. Shipping overseas is not a drama.

My favourite Products:

1. Very Berry face Scrub (Such an overwhelming joy to use)

2. Toner (the best toner ever used, clearly minimises pores)

3. Face Wash (lovely, simple and plentiful will last for months on end)

4. Skin Brightener (Slow, safe and effective)

Also, note I found using the products on my face have also brought a glow to my hands (I also use it on my neck and upper chest area : ) Thereby, they all glow together..

Highly Recommend

Love, love, love this product! Very moisturizing, didn't cause any breakouts and it smells amazing! Used as mask and face wash.

I was excited to get this in the mail today because the reviews were all so enticing.. I have mature skin, I am over 50 and my skin gets a bit dry. I had to say goodbye to the standard clay cleansing masks because they are just too drying for me. I tried this mask today after steaming for 6 minutes. The mask has a berry color and a smooth consistency with just a tiny bit of grainy-ness. It has a faint, very pleasant and even appetite stimulating scent... you almost want to try a bite. I applied a good amount, and waited about 7 minutes. During this time my skin felt tingly, cool and quite refreshed. I washed it off and noted my skin looked brighter and definetly felt very clean. It has been about 5 hours since mask, and my skin feels so moist and soft! I really like this product, I look forward to using it weekly. I recommend. Oh, and you get a good amount of it, too. I can see it lasting for a few weeks of regular use. So if you take that into consideration, along with the fact that it is organic and is going to be a bit more expensive, it is a pretty good value.

Another super product from sweetsation. I am trying to keep away from all chemical laden products for a while now after I developed quite a few allergies. I sure was thankful to find the sunscreen SPF 50, another one of my favorites. Now this berry mask/scrub is so different. First, it has this berry wonderful smell. Then, there is this gentle exfoliator that gets the job done without irritating the skin, and finally the buttery, creamy texture makes your skin feel so soft and smooth that you don't even need a moisturizer afterwards. Bottom line. I am very happy with my purchase and would certainly recommend this company and its products to everyone who wants the best for their skin without all the toxic ingredients.

I have been using this product for a few weeks now. I must say that I am extremely happy with the results.This product is a great addition in helping me keep my skin exfoliated and radiant. I especially love the smell and the texture . It's almost like scrubbing your face with berry flavored yogurt. A plus, a little goes a long way.

Neutrogena Healthy Defense Daily Liquid Moisturizer with Helioplex, 1.4 Ounces

Neutrogena Healthy Defense Daily Liquid Moisturizer with Helioplex, 1.4 OuncesThis product is different than anything I have tried before. It is very thin, almost the consistency of milk. It feels like nothing is on. I'm a make-up minimalist: I use a moisturizer, and sometimes a mineral powder. There is no "product sweating". What I mean is, sometimes a moisturizer/sunscreen makes white 'puddles' when out in hot sun. This product has none of that. It feels really nice on my skin. And the high SPF is awesome. I definitely recommend this product.

Neutrogena Healthy Defense Liquid Moisturizer SPF 50 With Helioplex is my new favorite SPF product for the face. I've destroyed my skin by exposure to the sun, so I do not go out without sunscreen, and this one is an absolute winner for my delicate and sensitive skin. Working in a garden, I often have felt my eyes burn and water with SPF moisturizers flowing as I perspired, but this stuff is great! I have been using Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream with another SPF product on top, either a J&J product, Kinerase, or Kiehl's, but this is better for me than any of those, even the more expensive products. In a small bottle, it doesn't take up a lot of space, and the mixing balls let you know the product is moving around when it's shaken prior to use. The small tip allows for minimal liquid to be dispensed onto the fingers (directions say into the palm, but I use the fingers), so it's not wasted. I am not sensitive to the indiscernible scent and I've not shown any redness or sensitivity to the product. For dry skin, it's definitely not enough moisturizer, but then I've always used the two step approach anyway. I'm hooked AND protected.

ADDENDUM: After using this product for a bit longer, I must add one criticism. It's not always easy to get the lid lined up on the first try and I sometimes have to struggle with multiple attempts to close the bottle. Despite my clumsiness, I love the sunscreen even more than when I wrote the first review and I've discovered that the small size at 1.4 oz allows for taking the entire product on journeys with the NTSB travel regulations, a definite asset for travelers!!

Buy Neutrogena Healthy Defense Daily Liquid Moisturizer with Helioplex, 1.4 Ounces Now

I don't know about the science behind "helioplex" (my mozilla firefox browser puts a red line under the word, that should be your first clue it's a bit dodgy) but this thin lotion is a nice product that feels like it's working. I think it makes my skin look better (and isn't that what these products are all about?) The SPF 50 is great and the price is right. Neutrogena is always great for hypoalergenic products. This one smells a little like my mother's "skin so soft" but the scent doesn't linger.

One of the better high-end lotions (hey, it's high end for me! I don't do the $50+ a gram lotions) I have tried.

Read Best Reviews of Neutrogena Healthy Defense Daily Liquid Moisturizer with Helioplex, 1.4 Ounces Here

Not a bad product but hardly ideal.

The Pros: Light weight and non-oily, it also works well with Retin-A and at the end of an 8 -10 hour day in the sun my cheeks were only slightly pink so there was some definite sunscreen coverage.

The Cons: A bit too light weight and my skin felt a bit dry half way through the day. ( I live in Wyoming a very dry state. In a more humid state this would probably be just right.) Also since my skin was not fully moisturized it stings a bit every time I apply it. I have combination skin so I would really have to re-apply it at some point in the day to maximize it's effects.

For it's price, in my experience, this is as good as a moisturizer can get without being greasy and causing breakouts. I do not have a problem using this in fact I have found it most ideal for travel conditions.

Want Neutrogena Healthy Defense Daily Liquid Moisturizer with Helioplex, 1.4 Ounces Discount?

Neutrogena is a trusted name, and this lotion is a nice addition to their line. It's lightweight enough to be comfortable on a humid summer day, but it's still an effective moisturizer. In the winter, you might want to use it as a sunscreen under your regular moisturizer, if you like a richer product.

The active ingredients are avobenzone, homosalate, octisalate, octocrylene, and oxybenzone, a cocktail which adds up to 21% of the total ingredients. This gives the product an SPF of 50.

The only reason I would give this item four stars rather than five is the scent. I found it unpleasant, and there it is right on your face where you can't avoid it. That's a matter of personal taste, though.

MyChelle Dermaceuticals White Cranberry Cleanser

MyChelle Oily / Blemish Control White Cranberry Cleanser-2.1 ozFirst off I have to say that I am in love with the the entire line of MyChelle Dermaceutical facial care products! The first product I used from this line was the Cranberry Cleanser. Right off the bat I was impressed with the results it gave me. It helped to clear up my complexion problems after only two weeks of using it. After about a month and a half to two months of using it every day I started to see even more dramatic results.

I was so relieved to finally find a cleanser that could clear up my acne problem! I had been suffering from moderate to severe acne for about 7 years and had tried almost every over the counter product out there. And I visited a dermatologist regularly for years, who had me on the typical treatment plan of antibiotic creams and pills.

I encourage anyone out there who has acne or oily skin to give this cleanser a chance. It yields excellent results! It is made by a company that doesn't test on animals or include animal indredients in their products.

I love all the MyChelle facial cleansers, but this one is my favorite. I have sensitive skin and take an overall "less is more" approach so more often wash my face with only water or sometimes mild soap. So this cleanser I use maybe 3 times/week after working out or working outside. I've used all the MyChelle cleansers, and they all feel good--nice and clean without drying--but this one feels the most special, like it slightly softens the skin too. It's not perfumey, it lathers nicely, and it lasts a long time.

Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay

Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay Deep Pore Cleansing, 1 PoundI've been using this for years and it is fantastic and nothing short of miraculous. I've used it on poison ivy, eczema, zits, blackhead, large pores, bruises, chigger and bug bites. I had a very severe bout of poison ivy, so I mixed up a large quantity of this stuff (cover and put in fridge any stuff you mix up,) and every night applied a pack and covered it with paper towels which I taped it down to keep in place & slept with it over night. The next morning I hosed off the dried clay and could see the poison ivy was losing it's punch, less ooze, itch & redness. This stuff pulls the toxins out of your skin! Would be great for teenagers troubled skin as it's the best clay to use on the face. I apply a thick layer and let it completely dry. It makes you skin pulsate as it's drying and I noticed my skin is more taut, pores smaller and clean, smoother and clearer after use. This stuff increases circulation in your skin and can make it red after using, (for me it goes away after 30 minutes.) DO A PATCH TEST FIRST.

I also used it on an allergic reaction I had to some sunscreen where my chest broke out in zits and after one application of this clay the next day everything had cleared up.

F.Y.I. to avoid a clogged drain, I peel the clay off after it's dried, or hose down outside because the dried clay (if it goes down the drain) can cause a clog. You can also use it in a bath as a detoxifier for the whole body. Just sprinkle in the water and it melts (no risk of drain clogging with this method.) This is a must for any emergency medical kit.

More FYI: Mix in a NON-METAL CONTAINER using NON -METAL UTENSILS. Instead of mixing with water you can use apple cider vinegar (I have also used aloe juice, NONI juice to amp up the healing properties.) A great cheap beauty mask that really detox's and purifies.. Any mixed leftovers can be covered and put in the fridge for further use. Add a little water if it dries up a bit while in the fridge. NOTE: The dry powder does not need to be refrigerated. **If using in a bath: gently sprinkle clay (I have used 1/2 of a container per bath) and use your hand as a beater to properly dissolve the clay when it hits the water to avoid clumping.

For the impatient: WORKS. BUY. USE.

Unlike "girly" products that smell like a whorehouse, this is a simple product.

You can feel the face pulsate as the clay dries, it pulls the skin and I think that is

why it works so well. It soaks up a huge amount of oil and dirt.

I had HUGE nose pores and crap in the pores. Once week in and the pores are 1/4 the size.

I've tried strips and other garbage and nothing has worked as well as ... this plain old dirt from the ground.

You'll have to expel the gunk in the pores by whatever method prefer, but once you squeeze it out

it won't come back if you continue with the clay. The pores shrank and my skin is

amazing compared to only a week ago.

1. It really works

2. Don't be cheap, use good vinegar

3. Apply it with a shaving brush and apply it like shaving soap. They say 1/2 an inch but that is impossible, nice try clay salesman.

APPLY IT EVERYWHERE. Face, neck, chest, forearms, buttocks. Why? This is the best skin care item, ever. It's also DIRT cheap. Dirt, get it?

4. Let it dry completely for 15-20 minutes. Use a small fan if you need to help it along.

5. Don't push on or touch your damn face while it's on, it will come off or if it's dry you will stretch the skin out.

6. Wash off in the shower and DONT RUB IT OFF like a moron, let it get soft and then gently help it off.

WORKS BUY IT NOW

DID I MENTION IT WORKS

APPLY TO BACK / ARMS TO STOP ACNE

Apply to butt to get sexy butt

Use the 2:1 apple cider vinegar to powder mix for best results.

This stuff works, throw all the girly crap in the garbage.

When covered in clay you look like Arnold from predator.

To sum it up, get this and fast.

It will change your life in less than a week.

I am 32 years old with extremely sensitive skin. I have acne, eczema, large pores and my skin will dry into a red rash due to changing weather or caused by some products. No amount of Retional, Accutane, Protiviti, Clearisil etc etc has ever taken care of my problems.

I just used this mask for the first time (with applecider vinegar) and my skin feels super soft. My pores have shrunk to the point that I am using one of those (horrific) magnifying mirrors and they still look small. I did feel the tightening and pulling that others have described but it was satisfying to know the product was working. My face did turn red immediately after the treatment, but that faded within 20 minutes. I am VERY pleased with the result and will use this again frequently.

I have used clay-based face masks before, including the bar and tube from Fresh, a mud mask from Sabon, and also fresh masks from Lush (the Chocolate clay one is my fave). None of those masks have produced as good a result as this product. PLUS this clay was far less expensive than the products i just mentioned.

A big thank you to the reviewer who said that you can find this at Wholefoods. I was able to find it there for $6 after reading about it on amazon yesterday. I only had to use 1 tablespoon worth of the product (plus 1T of liquid) to cover my entire face and neck so I will expect this jar will last me a year or more!

I'll have to provide an update if it helps my Acne but its too soon to tell...

Read Best Reviews of Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay Here

Let me tell you...if you ever want to know what it's like to have a black hole on your face then all you have to do is get this product. If you mix it just right not only will you feel pulsating and tightening, you will feel as if your face has moved( such as your lips puckering) but it really hasn't. It's pretty amazing. I leave it on for as long as I want or can take. It doesn't burn me or anything(though it did burn one of my friends with bad acne, but I think that was a good sign.) It just kind of sets me in stone. I make sure that when I mix it with Bragg's Organic Apple Cider that the texture is silky and whipped. No clumps! I have seen that some use water but meh...I say go by the actual directions.

I think one of the misconceptions about a product like this is that your face becomes smooth when you scrub it off. This stuff is extremely hard to get off like that. I recommend taking a rag and soaking it with warm water and dabbing it generously on the clay so that it softens somewhat. THEN scrub/wipe it off.

I only do this once a week because my skin is pretty normal and do not want to dry it out. So far the best benefit this clay has given is it's blackhead loosening. I always put a nose strip on right after I wash this off. When I pull that thing off I get almost all the blackheads on my nose. It makes me very happy. Now I know some people have T-Zone blackheads so I am sure you could also use strips on your chin and forehead.

This product is relatively inexpensive and the apple cider is too. It's worth a try.

I'm a bit confused by the extreme reviews for this product. It is a simple raw powdered bentonite clay which is readily available all over the world and used in many many cosmetics that you probably have in your bathroom right now. The marketing on this product is hyped, of course it is, almost all cosmetic products are touting unrealistic benefits these days. Bentonite clay is not a miracle, but it does have beneficial, productive uses both internally and externally. Sadly, it will not heal your acne or make you beautiful overnight, it may take TIME to get the results you want, and your expectations have to be REALISTIC. Educate yourself about this product (or rather bentonite clay, you can get it much cheaper than this) and then decide if it's right for you and your situation.

Good things about Bentonite Clay:

-Contains over 70 trace minerals.

-Absorbs Toxins, Impurities, Metals, & Other Contaminants from the Body (used both internally & externally for these purposes)

-Can sooth muscle damage, bruises, cuts & wounds.

-Astringent & Antibacterial Properties

-Filled with Negative Ions (which bind to bad positive ions like certain bacterias and cancel them out)

Natural PureGanic KONJAC Fiber Sponge

Natural PureGanic KONJAC Fiber Sponge
  • great for those with sensitive skin, yet is suitable for all skin types
  • Gently exfoliates your skin
  • Great for cleansing pores eliminating blackheads, dirt & oils
  • Stimulates blood flow and new growth of skin cells
  • Each sponge lasts several months

I saw this on YouTube. Just becareful not to do what I did the first time I used this. I over exfoliated since I guess I wasn't used to how little pressure you need with this product. First time I was a little sore, but since then I've learned to use this with better technique. The results are immediate. Your skin post use is very smooth and glows (with or without a cleanser). The one amazing thing is if you do use a foamy cleaner with this product, the amount of suds you get is significantly greater versus rubbing your hands together. I learned you can sanitize the sponge with boiling water and keep it in the fridge to prolong use (recommended use per sponge is 3 months). I air dry mine and make sure I get good ventiliation on each side of the sponge. I've noticed less clogged pores with use. I'm also considering purchasing the body sponge. Worth a try.

Buy Natural PureGanic KONJAC Fiber Sponge Now

I'd never heard of a Konjac sponge until I searched on amazon for a facial sponge for sensitive skin for cleansing, (not for applying makeup). I saw the Natural, PureGanic Konjac Fiber Sponge, and liked how it was all natural, without any cleansers added. And that it could last for months, and be used on sensitive . At such a reasonable cost, I decided to try it.

My skin feels clean and soft every time I use it. If I feel my skin becoming drier, due to environmental conditions, I take a break from the sponge, since it does gently exfoliate, and just wash my face with my hands. I have very dry, sensitive skin, so have to be careful not to exfoliate every night.

I would recommend this natural fiber acial sponge to anyone, with any skin type.

WEN® Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner 16oz

WEN® Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner 16ozI ordered this product after watching the infomercial late one night. (Insomnia sometimes has it's benefits) As someone who used to do hair for a living, I have tried nearly everything on the market. My shower rack was always overflowing with numerous shampoos and conditioners, but no more. This delicious smelling, one-step cleanser/conditioner is the only product I use now. I have somewhat fine hair that's a bit dry from color treatments and I needed a product that would restore a healthy shine and manageability without over-conditioning. WEN cleansing conditioner does the job all in one step. I apply about two to three pumps to wet hair when I first get in the shower then rinse out as the last thing. You can add a tiny drop after as a leave-in conditioner. You'll be amazed at the results regardless of your hair type. One last tip, unless you have extremely thick long hair that's as dry as the Sahara desert, you do not need to use the recommended amount of 16-24 pumps. You'll figure out the right amount for your hair. Also, buy it here on Amazon and don't get caught up in the auto shipments required on the infomercial. Happy conditioning!

I ordered this after watching the infamous infomercial...I'm sure you've all seen it! Anyway, I am an African-American woman who has done absolutely EVERYTHING to my hair and now have (thick, thick)relaxed hair. I only mention my race here because I think it is important to stress what the creator of this product was saying about his line--it works for anyone! I have only used this product for two weeks and I have to say that never before has my hair looked and felt so touchable--I literally used to cringe (and divert the perpetrator) if it seemed as if someone wanted to put a hand on my hair! I also used to be in a state of perpetual unrest--concerning my mop. It just seemed like no matter what products I used, I was always looking for something to do BETTER. The search is definitely over; I am truly satisfied. I would recommend this product to anyone who needs more good hair days!

October 14, 2009...One more child and one recession later, I still stand by my review, but if you are trying to save money in uncertain times, Dove Intense Damage Therapy Shampoo/Conditioner will also give you beautiful, healthy results.

Let me start by saying, like a lot of women, I am extremely picky about my looks, the products I use, and my hair in general. I spend a lot on beauty products because I have tried everything, and stick with what works.

About my hair--I have long brown hair. My hair is very fine, and I've put it through the ringer and back--very light blond highlights, dye every few months--it's not good. And my hair--especially my ends showed it.

I saw the commercial for Wen and thought I would try it. Why not, I thought. I was extremely skeptical, though, because there are some serious haters out there. Also, some reviews said that it left hair extremely greasy, smelled bad and made hair fall out. I totally expected, based on these reviews, that I would be using it, hating it and sending it back.

Nope.

I have used Wen for three weeks now. The first time I used it, I absolutely loved it. It does not leave your hair greasy at all--people who say that obviously cannot read directions. If you totally massage the product into your scalp and work on cleansing your scalp, your hair is as clean as if you washed it with a strong shampoo. And about the hair falling out--when you use it, they give you a comb to comb it through your hair. Some hair comes out, just because it's wet, you just massaged your scalp and now you're combing it in the shower. It wasn't any more than usually comes out in the shower, though--it was just right there on the comb. My hair is soft and I no longer have to use a smoothing serum on the ends. Which means, I can go every other day without washing it, because I am not saturating it with product, making it disgusting and greasy. And, I think the brass is toned down in my hair. I don't know how to explain this, except for maybe my hair is less dry, and it seems a little darker and healthier. For once in a long time, I don't hate my hair.

I would not take the time to write such a review if I didn't believe in the product.

Read Best Reviews of WEN® Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner 16oz Here

First off, if you want to try it, DON'T BUY IT FROM THEIR WEBSITE! Buying it from someplace else like Amazon is a smarter idea than what I did. I bought from the wenhaircare website and they sent me another 90-day package, which I didn't order, when I was about to return my 30-day package bottles. I already opened the second box not knowing what it was, so I hope when I send these bottles back they'll at least not charge me for the next two months.

The hair care process is a bit more time-consuming than I hoped for. You wet hair THOROUGHLY (1-2 minutes), lather 16-32+ pumps into hair (3-4 minutes), comb through (1 minute), leave it in for duration of shower (however long that means for you -keep lathering throughout shower), rinse (1-2 minutes -it's a lot of product to rinse out), apply leave-in conditioner and styling creme. You have to really focus on what you're doing with the Wen in you hair, so not only does that take more effort than regular shampooing and conditioner, but more time in the shower (which, for water conservers may be a big downside). The product is also thick enough to clog a weak drain, so be careful.

My last downside is that the 30-day or 90-day packages do not last that long. Following Chaz's instructions of using about 40 pumps every time I shower, my regimen lasted no more than 16 days. My advice is to use as LITTLE of it at a time as possible. He recommends the more the merrier; I say, use a moderate amount (at most 12 pumps for REALLY THICK hair in the shower) and cleanse more frequently than before.

Now for the results: it's pretty good. I'm a Polynesian woman living in tropical Hawaii with thick, curly hair. My only damage has come from one at-home relaxer years ago, pregnancy, and genetic hair loss. Curly hair like mine needs a lot of products to get it to listen to you. This one was no exception. For cleansing and making my hair feel soft and healthy, it did its job well; for making it LOOK soft and healthy and bouncy and curly, it needed some help. But I'm having a hard time going back to mousse and gel since using this, so now I have to find other styling solutions. Living in humid weather always adds to the frizz factor, but I thought this would at least ameloriate the situation a bit.

The real product's first 4 ingredients are Water, Aloe Vera Gel, Glycerin, & Chamomile Extract. This formula was cheaply made with Water, Glycerin, Cetyl Alcohol, and Cetearyl Alcohol. When I contacted the seller originally, they claimed they purchased their ingredients "directly from the seller". When I provided evidence of a different ingredients list, they didn't bother to respond!

I looked into this and found a website called wenhaircare.com. This website sells a low quality fake version of the real Chaz Dean product, but they charge the same price. If you want the actual WEN product you must purchase it from www.chazdean.com or the QVC website. Wen hair products are not being resold for sale to anyone else. In the future, I will by my Wen from people who are authorized to sell it. And I will NEVER purchase anything from Discountbeauty ever again. This was the worst customer service experience I've ever had. This is basically stealing.

Ahava Purifying Mud Mask, 0.9 Ounce

Ahava Purifying Mud Mask, 0.9 Ouncethis is an great Mud mask, it cleans your face and purifies. It will leave pores looking smaller, only thing i regret is that i paid 7$, not paying attention to the size of the tube, its only a small tube and will probably last for a 10-15 times use, if you use little. The tube also does not tell you how much you should use.

Boscia One Step Wonders

Boscia One Step WondersI have been using the BB Cream and the Makeup removing oil for the last year and they are both a critical step in my daily skincare regimen. I saw this package and recognized that is was a great value. I was delighted the first time I tried the de-puffing eye treatment. It has a gentle, yet invigorating tingle that not only wakes you up with the cooling feeling, but it eliminates the largest of under eye bags. I am nearly out of each of the products I purchased 6 months ago and I can't wait to buy them all again.

This product was just okay, one of my GF had recommended it to me and i really didnt do any thing too fab!!! I was super disappointed!!! I ended up returning it, just wasnt for me

L'Oreal Paris Go 360 Clean Deep Facial Cleanser, 6-Fluid Ounce

L'Oreal Paris Go 360 Clean, Deep Facial Cleanser for Sensitive Skin, 6-Fluid OunceHi,

I bought this product from Walmart after I ran out of my previous Neutrogena acne face wash. I thought this product was reasonably priced for its size. I had trouble determining which one of the Go 360 Cleans I should buy and in the end decided to go for the white and pink bottle for sensitive skin. I had very low expectations from this product as I have tried numerous acne products in the past.

Before I proceed further, let me give you an idea of what my skin is like. I have acne prone skin with acne, acne marks and some scars. I have an oily T zone but my cheeks tend to dry out due to the use of salicylic acid products.

I have now had this product for over a month and I LOVE IT! It is perfect for my skin. It gives a consistent even clean with a nice clean feeling. It has significantly reduced my blackheads. I also feel that it has reduced the size of pores by a trace amount. It has reduced my breakouts and acne a lot. I was not expecting miracles from a 6 dollar bottle, but this product has exceeded my expectations.

The product does make the skin feel dry after consistent use for sometime. So that is something to consider if you have dry skin. I have combination skin and I use it consistently. I use a oil-free moisturizer and sunscreen after this and it prevents my skin from drying up. I have also tried using the scrublet with some other acne face wash I had at home and it worked well. So, you could also use the scrublet with some other face wash you that you like.

I would recommend this product to anyone with acne/oily/combination skin. For dry skin I would recommend using this over summer/using with a moisturizer/or using it sporadically instead of every day. This is because the scrublet causes the face wash to foam and the skin to dry a little.

Give nice clean feeling.

Love this for several reasons...

When I'm done, I feel my face really does feel clean. It has an almost minty feel, then when you hit it with toner WOW! Will wake you right up.

Doesn't take much to use.

The "scrublet" feels like it's really helping the cleanser do its job; it rinses clean in seconds; it attaches to the bottle, so you always have the cleaner and scrublet together; PLUS you get a brand new one every time you get a new bottle.

The only thing I would change about the product is:

The bottles aren't clear as to what cleaner should be used on what kind of skin.

It should come in a body wash!

I bought this product at Wal*Mart about two weeks ago. My first time using it proved this product worthy for me. My face was instantly smoother and I noticed smaller pores. It definitely cleans my face and makes it softer. It smells good and the cleansing pad feels great on my face. I definitely recommend this to people who, like me, have bought products claiming to work but they didn't. The only minor problem is that after using this product my face gets a little dry, but that's nothing a good moisturizer won't fix.

Let me begin my review by saying that I have had a lot of trouble with acne for the last month or so. I had been using ProActiv for 6 years with amazing success....and from the incredibly muddled, crazy mess of information provided by my now 1 week google searches (lol) it turns out that the main ingredient in Proactiv, Benzoyl Peroxide is awful for you skin, awful for your body and makes the bacteria that causes acne even stronger and eventually immune to said ingredient. (I assume this is basically what happened to me. I'm not a doctor ! ) Anyway, the main point of my week long research was to find a new acne fighting treatment that would perhaps be a more gentle, chemical freeish type product. Needless to say, my search has introduced me to many new products (from eXposed skin care, Murad, Pronexin, Clean Start and so many others, it's insane.) that seemed to either have a lot of "Don't trust these scammers!!" tagged alongside, or they were wicked expensive, or didn't have enough reviews for me to feel good enough to give it a go. One thing I did try, however, was to go to my local WalGreens and check out their selection. There I found Acne Free and L'Oreal Paris go 360 clean deep facial cleanser and decided why not? Cheap enough, no shipping and my useless bottles of Proactiv weren't clearing up my skin any time soon. I used the cleanser and acne free at the same time, so I don't know if that affected how acne free worked for me, but after 3 weeks it was altering patches of my skin complexion and drying me out immensely. (I have oily skin in summer, and fairly dry in winter) It was also making me break out more painful bumps and glaringly red pimples on my head, right cheek and chin. I digress! Back to this face wash :) I noticed that BEFORE I put on Acne Free ( I waited until my face was completely dry after washing ) my face looked tons better; the pores smaller and the existing acne on my face not quite so awful to look upon. I've been off of acne free for 4 days now and my skin is slowly turning back to normal colors and with this face wash my acne is remaining small and so far, no new break outs. I am hoping that with continued use of this face wash, my acne might even go away :) But right now I'm very happy with the fact that my acne looks controlled, my face looks healthy and non shiny (but not too dry) and I feel clean. The scrubber is AWESOME. Hands/wash cloth cannot compare to this scrubber. I sincerely hope this helps SOMEONE out there.... good luck all in the search for a happy and clean face ;)

Gosh, I hate to write this! I was so excited to buy this after reading all the positive reviews. I bought it at Walmart yesterday for $4.97. I'm glad it didn't cost very much because I won't be using it and here's why:

1. My face hurts today. Maybe it was from using the scrubber? I don't know. But it hurts.

2. My biggest complaint is actually the perfume. I am sensitive to perfume and it has a very strong scent. I sort of felt like I was rubbing perfume on my face rather than cleaning it!

I know this has lots of great reviews and I am so glad others have enjoyed it. My only warnings would be to be super gentle with the scrubber, and to avoid this if you are sensitive to perfumes. Maybe I got a lemon, who knows :)

I gave it a 3 because obviously it does work for people, it just didn't work for me. That's what skincare is all about, trial and error, no one's skin is exactly the same.

Neutrogena Visibly Even Foaming Cleanser, 5.1 Ounce

Neutrogena Visibly Even Foaming Cleanser, 5.1 OunceI really like this product. It may sound strange, but it makes washing my face a very enjoyable experience. The cleanser is soft, if that makes sense, and feels really nice on my skin. It has a slightly abrasive texture like very fine sand, that works to exfoliate and smooth out my skin. It doesn't leave any residue that I've noticed. I would agree that my skin is brighter after having used is product. It smells nice, too. Neutrogena makes great products. Highly recommended.

Bot. Night Moisture Cream

Bot. Night Moisture CreamI love this night cream -my cheeks and forehead (my trouble spots) have not felt so soft and supple in years. I have tried many more expensive creams only to be disappointed that either they were too weak or they caused me to break out -neither is true of this. Boots is a long hailed European name, it is great that we can now have easy access at such affordable prices. I would definitely recommend this product to my friends and family (in fact I talked my sister into trying it already).

i have intense combination skin: the oily parts are super oily, while the dry parts are deathly dry. this cream moisturizes my dry skin and neutralizes the oily skin. it's thick and luxurious and helped relieve my flaky, dry, tight skin in two nights. i used to use this product in conjunction with other boots and boots botanics products, but i find it works as well with products that do not come from the boots line. insanely dope price for the value, especially since a little of this goes a long way. also available at target.

I love this using this night cream during warm weather months. (I've also posted a review for the Boots Botanics Nourishing Night Cream, which I use during the winter.) This settles into your skin nicely, is light but moisture-full, and I even use a little on my scalp in the winter after washing my hair! Great value.

Novena Organic Fruit Face Wash 3.4oz

Novena Organic Fruit Face Wash 3.4ozI absolutely love this product. I used it during my previous pregnancy and now continue to use it after she was born! The sellers were great and I loved the enclosed tip on not pulling the silver tab off...just pricking it w/ a needle, as this product foams up like crazy with just a drop!

I have acne prone skin during pregnancy. Initially I was hoping that this product can help reducing my acne while being organic and natural. It's smells really good and it's overall an ok product, but I have to say that it didn't really help reduction of acne. I can't blame the product because it's due to my own hormones, but maybe it's better for people with normal skin. The good part is that at least it has natural ingredients so that I felt safe when I use it.

I'm pregnant and unable to use my usual face wash. This product is safe and is very effective at removing makeup. I think its helpful in reducing pregnancy-related breakouts. The only complaint I have is with the packaging. It's a bit chintzy, and product easily leaks out of the top. But other than that, good product.

I have used Cetaphil for many years. It's "gentle" and was once recommended to me by a dermatologist. What I didn't like about it was that it never really took my makeup off well. Well, one day, I asked my friend (who has a glowing complexion) what she uses to wash her face with and she recommended this Novena product. I love it! It smells great and doesn't have a lot of chemicals that I try to stay away from. And no, I am not pregnant and do not plan to have any more children! I use this product every night to wash off my makeup and then I use the Cetaphil in the mornings.

The Organic Fruit Face Wash does come out quite a bit when you open the cap and squeeze gently. It lathers so well, that I really only need a drop. So, Using small scissors, I made the smallest cut at the very top (right below the crimped edge on top) and squeeze just what I need out. It's perfect and will allow this product to last much longer!

Tea Wash Foaming Gel Cleanser

Tea Wash Foaming Gel CleanserThere are so many foaming cleanser to choose from, so I decided to purchase from ILONA®, a true skincare company. Since I consume tea every day and live its benefits I hoped to find similar qualities in Tea Wash Foaming Gel Cleanser. I was not disappointed! Tea Wash smell's heavenly, like a concoction of white tea and thyme . . . you almost want to drink it not wash your face with it. It foams marvelously without stripping the skin and rinses clean away. A few pumps massaged onto moistened skin and you'll create the most invigorating aromatic lather you've ever experienced. This is an awesome price, too. At their website this same item retails for $44! I love all of ILONA's products.
