Good point /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I don't remember watching the video where he recommends that(I have horrible memory XD). But you might be onto something there /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I've been using Murad's cleanser with 1.5% salicylic acid...and it hasn't done a thing for me /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I saw it now it's in the blackhead's video description box XD

He has multiple videos where he speaks about the line. Just email customer service and ask for suggestions. They have AMAZING customer service and will most likely send free samples. I recommend it to everyone because it has made a huge huge difference in my skin. My cousin is a beauty blogger-tried 100 things, high end low end. She is now completely addicted to Paula's choice. She reviews other brands, but always goes back and says her skin feels so much better.

Thank you /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'll try to email them and see what they say, I don't want to compromise to a product without knowing it will give me results XD guess I'm too used to sampling products now /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

What "extras" did you receive in your tube?

 

[Jamie P]

Ugh I want my tracking #!!! I was charged a week ago! Haha

Still no tracking email for me. I don't think I've ever gotten one. I sooooo hope it comes tomorrow!

 

[Jamie P]

I have only gotten one tube and I got a tracking number. Maybe it will surprise me. Tomorrow?? Please??!!!

Does anyone remember how the Spalook cards work? I actually may use mine (plus ebates!!) this time for Caudile Divine Oil (I would sell my husband for that stuff)

Essentially the Spalook cards work as a promo code versus a gift card. I believe in the last quarter's box the cards dropped being called gift cards because they never were gift cards and were in violation of some state's laws.

I got tracking, the actual package didn't ship until yesterday.

Oh, great idea! I got the divine oil (finally) last month on special from sephora and I'm in love! I use it on my body after a shower at night and it is AMAZING! I'm gonna use it up soooo fast so I save it for special "me" days. We could get maybe 2 or 3 bottles with the ebates and spalook card and still have a great deal! Then I can bathe in it every night! Haha. Still no pink box. I wanna see what extras I get! I'm guessing the mally and colorscience since I've already gotten the blackhead thing. But that was a substitution for something else so no clue?!

Well, I went ahead and cancelled this one.  After all is said and done, I needed to cut one and this was the one that was the most "meh" for me.  At least this go 'round.  Now you KNOW I'll be watching next quarter to see if I need to resub to it.  LOL  

I got all the same as everyone else.  The Amazonian blush from Tarte is a NO WAY for me.  I'm not even opening it.  LOL  I *might* put it up for trade but I have never figured out the trades so I'll probably just give it away or toss it out.  Sad because I wanted to try it...but it is way too intense (judging by the swatches I've seen) for me to even consider.

 

[beautymadn3ss]

don't toss it! that would be a waste /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> give it away or something /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I have quite a few tarte blushes and while pigmented, I hardly even touch my blush brush on it and it shows up perfect! Just use a very light hand. These blushes rock, they last all day. The one I wear the most hardly even has a dent in it, it will last forever.

 

[nelliebelle1197]

If I get the blackhead stuff I am calling them. I had it before!

So is the great idea selling my husband? He does come with New Zealand and Irish citizenships and a master plumber's license!! How much Divine oil for that?

Did you try the oil in your hair? Not only does it make hair beeeyouteefull!, it makes me flip around and smell myself all day!

The great idea was to use the spalook card AND ebates to get the oil. i just discovered ebates thanks to missyglammygirl and her man repeller madness! But, I bet you could get a nice stash of oil in exchange for your hubby! Lifetime free plumbing!!! Lol. I have only tried it on my body....no hair or face yet. I'm pretty happy with my Josie for the face but I may have to try it on my hair tonight! I alternate between kendi, macadamia, and pequi samples right now and I do like them but haven't found my HG yet. The kendi is close! Maybe this is the one? I catch myself smelling my arms at work all day when I use this stuff. Now I'll be smelling and flipping my hair all day! Good thing I only have to share my office with a fish!

I would really LOVE the Tarte Amazonian Blush in Flushed if someone wants to trade:

I'm willing to trade this Jewelmint piece OR something from my trade listing.  PM me if interested. Thanks!

Seriously, if there are more Neutrogena and Olay products in this comprising most of the value of the TT, I'm canceling where I used to love this when they sent moroccanoil & mally & makeup. And I'm sick of cellceuticals also. I wish they'd do more fun makeup & body butter/ lotion instead of face cream. I have that

I received my test tube yesterday.  I am pleased.

The Dr. Brandt Pores No More cleanser is HUGE.  The Vichy serum tube is pretty small, as is the Stila gel cream moisturizer tube.  I have come to expect larger sizes in the test tubes, so I was a little underwhelmed.  Liked that the Stila tube was sealed, though.  Also was a little disappointed that the Simple cleansing facial wipes package was only the pack of seven.  I received the tarte in flushed, and I thought it might be too dark for me because I am very fair.  But, with a very light hand, it creates a pretty pinky red blush.  And, it is not sparkly, which I appreciate.  My extra products were a small tube of Vichy eye cream, a small bottle of Morocan Oil, and a nice mally black eye pencil.
