yeah, i wish i never got that mint julep also byebyeblemish… it burned my face soo bad and my cheeks and forehead is sooo dry in the morning, i had to go to the kitchen and slap canola oil on my face lol. everyone keep talking bout it. i guess people who like it are those with oily skin. -_-; and i forgot puala mention in her site that sulfur is really drying and the perfume in the ing. is probably the mint -_-;

i haven’t1 thanks for the tip.

i love l’occitane.. altho overpriced.. their moisturizer is the ONLY one i use and the only one that works for me.. it feels silky and not greasy at all.
i also have their hand and foot creams which feel soooo nice and nourishing (but some ppl may think too creamy — it’s all preference)… i also do have their rice cleanser and toner which i haven’t used yet so i can’t really tell you how they’ve worked for me :S have your checked make up alley for reviews?
February 12th, 2009 at 2:47 pm
nice video!
i’d like to know more about the l’occitane product you use… how is it? how does it fell? does it work? somehow, I can’t find much reviews on l’occitane products…
February 15th, 2009 at 11:46 pm
uh.. no where in my video did i say i use any of the brands you stated… nor did i claim to be a ‘trained’ professional. What i use works for me and i have a science background and don’t believe in the “paraben free” nonsense. my personal opinion. before you personally attack someone, perhaps you should understand first that these videos, mine as well as others, are PERSONAL experiences and opinions because your attitude is not necessary. thank you.

YOUR GETTING RIPPED OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! elizebeth arden, loreal, MAC!!! ALL HORRIBLE SKIN REGIMENS!!! They probably work on your skin b/c you have normal - dry skin maybe oily and still you break out..besides that they are cosmetic grade and have mass consumer products in them like parabens and myristates!!! SO BADDDD!!!! You might as well smoke! If you are going to do recommendations for products get some training in skin care first. For the publics sake!!!!!!!!!!

I just love the mint julep
March 4th, 2009 at 12:13 am
i wish you would have done this earlier!! great review on the clinque! =D

Why dont you order a mario badescue cleanser? I use this cleanser from the skinceuticals line. It has alpha hydroxy acid in it and it also has sa. in it. I use a skinceuticals clay masque too with aha. These two products together have helped me a lot. Unforntuately, I have to order it on line

=( i wish i could tell you (i just took a quick look at my products)… none of them have the ingredients printed on them (except the toner)… they were all on the boxes were i’ve tossed… perhaps that information is on their website? :S

Do those clinique products have sodium lauryl sulfate? That is a very comedogenic ingredient and harmful to the skin too especially in people like me who are acne prone

apparently tho… i’m not sure if you know what “yodaly” is…. it’s a korean yoghurt drink… if you soak a cotten ball with it and swipe that on ur blackhead areas and let it “sit” there for 15min then wash off/carry on with ur regular skincare routine.. it’s suppose to help withthe blackheads… a little diy tip for you =)
March 11th, 2009 at 3:47 pm
i like using the pore strips bc it makes me feel like i’m getting rid of them.. but with all honestly.. they only deal with the surface.. the blackheads are still there underneath.. which is why they keep coming back…
the rever upper is pretty good with dissolving the blackheads and making it appear less… but to make them completely disappear… =( i’m still on that quest.. lol
