BORBA Nutraceuticals and BORBA Cosmeceuticals - Fusing the inner and outer needs of your skin.
I have been using this product for approximately three 4 weeks, and I have absolutely noticed a difference in the clarity of my skin. I have sensitive skin with a tendency to redden easily. Since using this product both day and night (I use it prior to moisturizer and under makeup), my skin is smoother, appears more even-toned, small rough bumps have disappeared, as an added benefit of a “tightening” under makeup. I can’t speak for any wrinkles being diminished because I do not have any. Makeup seems to glide on, and BORBA acts like a primer. The product dispenses in small pea-sized amounts into the palm or fingertips, and quickly gets absorbed without the sticky or tacky feeling that you often get from many serums. An added bonus is that it also smells lightly fruity. With so many products out there, this one seems to deliver what it truly promises.
Plus, buy any BORBA product and Get a FREE water bottle sleeve, $10 value (Expires 2007-12-31) and $10 off $100!

H2O+ Pumice Foot Scrub


Saturday, March 24th, 2007

Pumice Foot Scrub
Size 4.2 oz \ 120 g
Price $15.00
An exfoliating sea scrub that sloughs away dead skin and calluses while stimulating circulation and conditioning the skin. (#377)
Massage over wet feet concentrating on heels and soles. Rinse well and follow with Smoothing Mint Foot Rub for maximum conditioning.
Natural pumice works gently to remove dry, rough spots on the feet, while hydrating. Anti-aging marine botanicals help soften and condition the skin. Feet are left feeling soft to the touch.
This is the best foot scrub I have ever used! It is very grainy and effective at sloughing off dry skin. I use it with a regular foot file in the shower and it really sloughs off all the dead skin. It’s also very cooling. Just be careful with water accumulating in the cap b/c it doesn’t seal very well and can lead to mold. Also don’t be afraid to use any excess on your elbows…mine love it! Does a great job of softening and scrubbing my feet, and leaves a refreshing, tingling cool feeling that lasts for a long time after I use it. Would definitely repurchase!

Chanel Precision Calming Emulsion–100ml/3.3oz
Retail Price: $44.00
Now: $39.50
An absolute calming beauty care. Immediately helps diminish sensations of discomfort. Offers a protective shield to prevent signs of stress. Contains exclusive ingredients to reduce reactivity. Deliberately provides an instant sensation of comfort. Suitable for all skin types.
This does exactly what it says it will. Calms my face on contact, regardless of whether it’s suffering from being sore/red in winter or when I have those hideous time of the month spots that really hurt. I have been using the CE since it came out. I turned my face around. I thought I had acne but what I was experiencing was environmental sensitivities. This calmed my face and cleared up the issues. Every spring I experience welts on my face from pollen and this calms it right down. May they never stop making this.

Bobbi Brown Long-wear Gel Eyeliner from Gloss


Wednesday, March 7th, 2007

Size: 0.1 oz./3 g
Price: $19.00
Voted ‘Best Long-Wearing Shadow or Liner’ by “In Style” Magazine (April 2006). This innovative eyeliner offers the precision of liquid liner and the ease of a gel-based formula. Color is long-wearing and water-resistant. Can be used to create subtle to dramatic looks.
I bought this in espresso ink and you can layer it for a more dramatic look. As most of the other ladies have said, it’s hard to do a thin line with the Bobbi Brown brushes. However that’s ok for me because I usually only wear it when I’m going out for a night on the town. stays all day, is removed easily with eye make up remover, and is generally great! I also use it to line my waterline and tightline and it is the best product I have found for this - again - it lasts all day. This might just be my HG black eyeliner. I use it with BB’s ultra fine eye liner brush. I prefer this product to fluidlines although I’m not quite sure why - maybe because I have found the colour to be denser.

La Prairie Rose Illusion Line Filler from SaksFifthAvenue


Saturday, March 3rd, 2007

Size: 1 oz.
Price: $100
Item#: 0425740988057
This weightless, oil-free, age-minimizing line smoother produces radiant, line-free facial skin. Apply as pre-makeup treatment to help minimize skin imperfections and create even skin tone.
this product is expensive but so worth it. It makes you look as though you have perfect skin and doesn’t feel at all greasy. In fact, it makes my skin feel very fresh and velvety. I did try the NARS primer, but it just isn’t the same even. First time I put it on and it seems not work at all. But in next three days this became a must im my morning make-up ritual. I can not imagine putting my makeup without it anymore. It is a great primer. I’m not sure I’ve ever tried a product that has changed my system so much and so quickly.
From 3/1-3/11, ther is a BEAUTY EVENT in SaksFifthAvenue.com. You can get FREE Travel-ready Silver Box Filled with 3 Deluxe Samples with a $250 La Prairie Purchase, Coupon Code: LAPRAIRIE4 and FREE Exclusive Patent Bag Filled with Deluxe Samples with a $100 Purchase of any beauty product, Coupon Code: ROMANTIC
