I use a sponge to apply it. I have dry skin and powder can look really cakey - esp when i apply it with a brush. Try using a sponge to pat it on. that works perfectly for me.

I almost want to open another account to get another one plus my other favorite products.. Hahaha
Do it! I did and I have a spare, But I use it everyday so Im trying to find other ways of getting more! My rule with ebay and beauty products is if I know its beem on a sub service lately, its probably up there for cheap. The thing is that they are like 20-25 each, I could buy a new sub for that price, and I already have one spare, so ill probably wait.

 
Hi everyone, thanks for the application ideas. I may have been applying it too heavily without realizing it. I'll keep you in mind if I decide it's not for me.

 
This is a long shot but does anyone have the coconut lotion theyd want to trade? Id love another one and would trade just about anything for it! Also, how do you guys like the exuvience mask? Ive heard great things about it and some people say they order it every time. I've used it 2x and although it felt good going on and coming off i didnt notice any difference in my skin aftetwards either time....im wondering if anyone else feels the same or can tell me why they love it so much. Thanks! Im loving the Stila powder, Jonathan hairspray, coconut lotion, and skindinavia the most out of everything!

I personally like the mask. I feel like it makes my skin super soft when I take it off. Also, it gives my skin a nice clean glow...hopefully that doesn't mean I have super dirty skin to begin with. lol. I really like the Jonathan hairspray as well! The only product I did not like was the chocolate bubble bath...but that was my fault for not noticing the size was so small. But seriously guys, stay away from it, it's just a tiny sample size.

 
Uh I really want that Stilla Set and Correct powder, so if anyone has it for trade :-D 

I have the Stila One Step Bronzer Up for trade (Used 2x as highlighter) Also I have a full sized & NEW Chella Mask for trade. 

This is one of my fav masks of all time, but I was able to obtain an extra one. Beautyfix unfortunately does not have these anymore either.

I just can't justify Beautyfix this month when the other products I wanted are gone (especially Glytone Cleaner, yes I'm looking for that too) :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Also, I agree with you SimplyChelle xX that the Exuvience did nothing for me as well. Felt nice, but no effect on my skin whatsoever. 

Try the Chella mask! 
 

 
My issue with the Exuviance mask is the smell. It's horrid. Very chemical, very nasty. But it does make my face feel soft and clean, and I love peeling it off.

I just don't think I've ever used a product with a smell I dislike this much.

I like the Exuviance mask, but I'm not exactly sure why.  I even like the strong smell, because it seems to me (no relevance whatsoever, it just does, jedi mind trick?) that it's working.  I like peel off masks and it seems to be nice.  It isn't a miracle product like the Ren mask.  I did consider beautyfix this season to get another and I'd trade for another probably but they charged me $49.99 last time despite the coupon and it was a pain in the butt so I'm not eager to deal with them again.  I do like their stuff though . . . and I'm a glutton for punishment.  We'll see.  Last time the $90 primer was amazing, I think I still have some left.  I'm sure they do have some great things to try that I haven't tried yet.

 
I'm fairly convinced that BeautyFix is worth the $50 now.  I'll either skip a season that I don't like or I'm generally happy with a $50 package.  The Exuviance mask, for example is $34 at Ulta, and I'm sure if it was $20 I'd probably have bought it at a store, even if all it does it make me feel like I've emotionally done something good for my skin, lol (it's fun to use a peel off mask, what can I say?).  And 7 other items are worth $30.  I just really appreciate the fact that the items, even if I don't like them (I didn't like the 3Lab Foaming Facial Cleanser in my last kit), that they're full sized, and I can use them 10-20 more times over the next month to be sure that I don't like it, and then give away the bottle to someone else to try out and still have over half the product left over.

 
I was just looking at my Stila Set and Correct this morning. The weight is .16 - very small amount IMHO. By comparison, I have a pressed powder compact that is .43 and my loose powder is one ounce.

Me too! Pretty sure I will stay with BF, and likely cancel my two monthly subs that send me such random stuff (Birchbox and Sample Society). I love getting to choose my own full sized or huge sample size products! I'm paying $40 each for my QVC Beauty Test Tubes, and they don't excite me as much as this sub does.
 
Did anyone else get the Cures eyecream and think that it smelled weird? ......sort of like a weird expired product-y smell? Or is it just mine that smells weird.....

"Weird" is a pretty subjective concept. That said, I didn't notice anything off about mine.

LOL yeah, I guess it can be. I was trying to imagine what "weird" smells like but then I remembered I had the eye cream too.

I had ordered both eye creams in one box so I was trying to remember which one did smell weird, but I know exactly what you're talking about, nkjm.  It's almost like a rubbery, plastic "fresh factory produced playground equipment" sort of scent, instead of any sort of cream you'd apply onto skin.

 
nkjm: I've been using the Cures eye cream for the past week and I really have not noticed any scent at all.

................................> I just retrieved mine and put a little on my hand and sniffed it. You are right, it does have a faint, weird scent. I did not notice it until I got it right under my nose. It doesn't smell bad (to me), just odd and it dissipates pretty quick.

Pooh: you must have got your billing problem resolved? Glad you are enjoying BF.

 
My cures also did smell a bit off, like it's been a product that has expired. I contacted the CS and was able to get another product instead. I was really concerned since it seemed like the product was not supposed to have any scent. The smell was really strong that I had to go wipe it off and wash. It was a good thing I tried it instead of leaving it off and waiting to finishe my current eye cream first.

Still waiting for my $30 credit to show up on my card, but I have email from Beautyfix that Sonji credited it back to my account.

Now that I see the awesome products they sent me, I feel guilty asking for the credit. The shipment was definitely worth full price, and I'll be staying with Beautyfix!

I was going to say that it makes sense that a pressed powder would take up less physical space than a loose powder, but it's the same size as Too Faced Primed and Poreless finishing powder, and MUFE's travel size HD powder, and Smashbox Photo Set Finishing powder is .17oz.

That's not to say that there aren't powders that come in larger volumes, but just wanted to point out that the .16oz is the full sized version, and there are other full size powders that come in similar sized amounts.

 
This sub is 101% worth the full price, IMO. I love it!

About the Exuviance mask (I saw that someone asked a page back what people like about it), I really love how soft and glowy my skin looks after I use it. I like the cheapy Freeman cucumber mask and this is like the superhero version of that to me. It's definitely one of my top 3 favorite face masks, ever, and I use a lot of different ones, including face masks from Japan and Korea (I'm an Asian beauty product addict). But as always, different skin = different results.

 
I still want this. But I just can't. I have two full glossyboxes and two full BA boxes full of skin care samples, plus another basket. BUT I WANT MORE
