I don't want to click on that link because I'm scared it's the Louboutin nail polish and I'll buy it.  I cannot buy.  I will not buy it.  Nope.  ....but I really want to.  :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It's a $50 polish, I don't think you'll be tempted too badly we could post the pic too if you just wanna see and not be tempted by the add to cart on the side :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I agree. My konjac sponge isn't Boscia (it's some $4 thing from T.J. Maxx) but it is such a comfortable way to cleanse and gently exfoliate. I've been in love with it since the first use.
I got a konjac sponge from Julep and I seriously think it does a better job than Clarisonic, and it was only $4 dollars! 

 
The konjac sponge is not for me, sadly. It's not an issue with the sponge so much as the fact I hate things on my hands. It foams up really well, it turns really soft, but when I press it down on my face water runs down my arm, and I hate it. Its not like a normal washing your face getting your arm wet either, it gushes in stages. THIS IS A PERSONAL PREFERENCE OF MINE not an issue with the sponge but if you have similar aversions like mine, it might not be for you.

 
I'm like this too! I only use my clarisonic in the shower because of this =)

 
Try this ladies....fold a clean hand towel in half lengthwise twice, lay it on the counter between you and the sink, rest your elbows on the towel while you wash/rinse your face so the towel catches the elbow drips, open the towel to the clean insides, pat your face dry, and toss in the hamper :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Just a personal method lol

Ahhh now I really need one! You are saving all of us ladies money rather than buying the Clairsonic!

Got the Give Me More Lip set today in the mail! Record timing!

I do have to say, I'm disappointed in how small the Marc Jacobs tube is, as IMO it's the best color. The second best being the UD, which is also the second smallest/smallest. The worst color is the Smashbox, and of course that's the full-size. I guess I could use it as a highlighter for the middle of my lip, but that's why I wish the sizes were reversed. For $25 it's not a bad deal at all, but if I decide there's only one or two I really love I might take it back for full sizes. 

 
One added thing: I never have a problem washing my face in the sink and getting wet, using the konjac sponge or otherwise :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm actually really shocked someone got soaked using the konjac sponge because IME, it's one of the less "messy" products. It should be wet but not drippy wet at all, as in moist. You shouldn't experience any water running down at all.

But girls, this is what i do. I bend in toward the sink, wash, and then to rinse I use a small, clean hand cloth, get it really wet but not dripping, and wipe most of the cleanser off by repeating this process 2-3 times. Then I splash my face leaning over the counter twice just to make sure. I never have water anywhere, not even on my shirt (I used to have to take it off first, but I've perfected this method so much I don't need to any more!)

I just bought my Clarisonic and it came right before my konjac sponge. It's not that I dislike the Clarisonic, I just don't think it's all it's cracked up to be, and for daily (even once a day, at night) use, you definitely need the extra-sensitive or cashmere heads so that you don't OVER-exfoliate (the sensitive head felt immediately scratchy to me, and I dry brush, so I don't have super sensitive skin at all). So, unless you have REALLY resilient skin, most heads are too rough for everyday use and the cashmere head is the only one that feels "nice" and not sort of scratchy to use, IMO. I still use it for exfoliation but i also have way better products for that, and I'll def continue to use it with the cashmere head, especially on days when i use a lot of face product (primer, foundation, powder), but the konjac gently cleanses and is safe to use 2x a day and leaves my skin the way I feel it should feel, soft, clean and smooth. But for $100 for the most basic of models vs the $4 I paid, I would suggest using the konjac first. If you don't like it, you've only spent $4!

i thought i'd get the give me more lip set as soon as it comes out...but i really don't need it and don't want it as much. i have 4out of the 6 items already, in the same exact shades too, but wanted to try the marc jacobs and bite.....but then again, it's probably just gonna sit in my drawers again.. i'm not even sure i'll try it out right away, since i already have so much unopened, tried once, stuff that i never use.
