And thank you oodles, BarTopDancer, for giving me two packets of the Microdelivery Peel you received in your kit! YOU ROCK! :snap: :)

I tried out the Peel last night while geekily watching American Idol. I was a little nervous, because microdermabrasion & me just don't mix. I have sensitive skin and it causes me to break out something just awful. :( <--imagine this sad little fella covered in spots. That's me, post peel.

However, I really liked this one! It burned a little, so I slapped on lots of cream afterwards to soothe my skin. Keepin' fingers crossed! Here's hopin' it works! So far so good! :)

The micro-delivery peel is amazing!! I accidentally bought two other micro-dermasion/facials scrubs from philosophy last week and got the micro-delivery samples (what I'd actually wanted to order....long story :p ....basically dsnylndmom wasn't around and I screwed up).

The scrubs/facials I ordered are okay.....great love and great mystery (?) I think they're called? But the micro-delivery peel system will be my next philosophy purchase! My skin looks better than I've seen it in YEARS. It's amazing!!! I've had an actual three-part microdermabrasion done before, and this stuff makes my skin look a thousand times better than salon facials and micro!!

I've also been using this eye cream the last few weeks (3) and if I wasn't so lazy I'd go upstairs and grab the bottle.....it's Active C, but I can't remember the brand...it was spendy, but highly recommended from a friend who works in a medical spa and it WORKS. I barely have an trace of a line around my eyes any more. And I don't use it everyday....I sometimes forget. But after about ten days....the lines were fading. And now they're almost GONE. It's the weirdest thing!!!

Between the eye cream, the micro-delivery peels, and the bare minerals...I look so much better....like I actually care about my skin! I was aging fast there for a while. Time to sloooooow that process down a little. ;)

Ooooooh Claire I"m so glad you got to try the peel!!! That's great that it's working so well for you! Can you get over how good your skin feels after it, soooo soft and purrtyy! Now you understand my " I SWEAR" by it :D YOu're going to be addicted I know it! I've got my bare minerals on the way now I need some of that eye cream, that sounds great!!

Allly now that you've used the peel how did you like it?? I can't wait ot hear

I'm still looking for a decent priced moisturizer that won't oily up my skin, suggestions? :confused:

I really liked the Loreal stuff from Target. It comes in either a white or a pink bottle. I have the worst combo skin on the planet. It goes from so dry I want to rip it off to so oily it'll slide off my face. I also bought some pretty nice stuff from Bath and Body works. I think it was Biolage something in a white bottle.

The philosophy greatest love microdermabrasion scrub I got leaves my skin smoooooth and silky!! That's the really nice thing about it--it scrubs, then moisturizes. With the combo of that and the bare minerals, I'm nowhere NEAR as oily as I used to be.

I use the greatest love scrub in the shower, and by the time I towel off, my skin is smooth and clear. I sometimes get red patches in my "smile lines" area on dry cold days....but no more. All gone. And no need for a moisturizer at all.

Ooooh!! Moisturizer? You've come to the right place, Honey! :) I'm a big ol' addict. I cannot live without moisturizer or my skin becomes really fussy. My Creme De La Mer just arrived, along with the Creme De La Mer Face Serum & Eye Balm. I have high hopes and am so excited! I'll keep you posted! :)

Ooh! And so far so yay with the Microdelivery Peel. Shocking for such sensitive skin like mine! I'm keepin' these snappin' fingers crossed -->:snap:

Sephora is an anagram for "Arse Hop"... back to your regularly scheduled thread

:( As much as it pains me I think my new face stuff must go back. I used my old regimen last night and my face was nowhere near as oily. I don't think the wash is strong enough. I have two more attempts of different combos to try. If nither of them work back it goes :(.

Sorry the new stuff doesn't seem to be working for you BTD ~ I have very similar skin issues and have tried various things - some work and some don't.

Just had to share, I discovered the coolest bargain the other day at the Body Shop. I hardly ever go in there, but I was browsing & found their Tea Tree Oil blotting papers. Perfect for that midday shine and only NZ$4.50 for 65! Bargain!:snap:
