Anti Age Products that WORK!!!

June — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 00:29:27 +0000

When Dr’s Rodan and Fields describe their products as “results driven”, they mean it! Having previously tried numerous products with minimal results, I have to admit I was a bit skeptical about trying their products at first. Well…after just six weeks of using the Anti-Age Regimen, I cannot believe how great my skin looks! People are telling me how good I look and want to know what I’ve done to myself. A couple of close friends that I hadn’t seen in awhile even asked me if I had “work done”! Why?? The texture of my skin is firmer, smoother, my pores are smaller, and best of all, the lines around my mouth,eyes, and above my lips have significantly diminished. Bottom line, I have younger looking skin!

I would highly recommend these products to anyone who wants an easy, affordable solution for younger looking skin. The gentle smell and texture of the products are very appealing as well. They leave your skin feeling soft, smooth and vibrant! I couldn’t be happier with the appearance of my skin…I’m 55 going on 40, thanks to Drs. Rodan and Fields!

Hand Made Cards

I met a gal at a party recently who makes these beautiful handmade cards for all occasions! She makes them from a variety of materials and you can even send photos or meaningful items to incorporate on the card. They are very cool, and add an extra special touch to any birthday, anniversariy, graduation or baby announcement. They are one-sided so they fit perfectly into a scrapbook as well!

What’s a Flipper?

This is the cutest thing ever! I just bought 3 of these for my little girl and for her friends. They are toothbrush holders that stick to your mirror or cabinet with suction cups. Your little one can snap the toothbrush in and out and it keeps it nice and clean. I bought z-monkey the little pink hippo. It’s so cute! Be sure to watch the video to get an idea of how it works.

Unblemish me

joey — Sun, 11 May 2008 15:57:27 +0000

As a teenager I was blessed with having only a few random breakouts. Unfortunately as an adult I have had the misfortune of having adult acne. I like to say I am “hormonally challenged”. Every month without fail my chin breaks out at “that time of the month”. I am amazed at how well Unblemish is working for me. I have been using the face wash for about three weeks, but have only been using the entire regimen for five days and am seeing amazing results and absolutely no irritation! The products don’t even sting when they’re applied like most acne treatments. I have used Retin-A and Differin cream from my dermatologist, both of which made my face very dry, red, irritated and peely. I have also tried using MANY drugstore treatments which either just didn’t work or made my face feel so tight and dry that it was going to crack. So, that being said, I was very excited to try the Unblemish because it contains sulfer instead of just the typical salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide like everything else seems to have. So far I am totally in love with the products.

I have been using the micro-dermabrasion paste which I ABSOLUTELY love and the unblemish regimen and not only is my acne clearing up, the red scars are becoming much lighter and some have even dissappeared. I am also noticing my fine lines smoothing out. The micro-derm paste really makes my skin feel so smooth and soft and I have only used three times. I am really excited to see what my skin looks like over the next few weeks! Click here for more information.

Just tried new product and am in LOVE!

Hi guys

I just tried the Enhancements Micro-Dermabrasion paste and it is the BOMB! I’ve never gotten so excited about something after just one try. My skin was so smoothe after I used it…what a difference! Click here if you want to learn more about this product.

Can You Say…Sun Damage?

nicole — Thu, 01 May 2008 19:01:32 +0000

Okay, I’ll be the first to admit that I did not heed the early warnings that sun exposure can (will) damage your skin. I spent 8 years as a lifeguard baking in the sun all day long. Sure I wore hats, sunglasses and sunscreen…but truth be told, for a white girl (fair skin, freckles, the whole shebang), I was REALLY tan. As we all know by now, there is nothing “healthy” about a tan…it’s just your skin’s way of screaming for help and trying to protect itself from further damage.

Enter Reverse. This product is AMAZING! As I am rapidly approaching my *ahem* 40s, I am totally noticing my skin heading south…wrinkles, brown spots, no elasticity, the works! The Reverse regimen was designed with someone like me in mind. I had been looking for a product line that was created by a dermatologist (no more cheap drug store stuff–I needed to pull out “the big guns”) that was specifically targeted to my particular issue–sun damage. Well, this is the stuff. The Reverse regimen is designed to erase the signs of photoaging by experts who know a thing or two about skin (it was developed by the same dermatologists who created “Proactive”). And…of course it includes a sunscreen with zinc…can’t get any better than that!

I highly recommend this product! I spent 144 bucks for a 2 month supply of a complete regimen. It included a scrub, a toner, the lightening lotion and a sunscreen! (I’ve spent that much for one tiny tube from Lancome.) Plus…I got free shipping by registering for their “preferred customer” program–which means they send it to me every other month, so I never run out and I don’t have to go to the mall–woo hoo!
