^LTEC, how are you liking the Hyaluronic Eye Cream? I actually ordered that from Mario Badescu a while ago, so excited to try it, but it's gonna take a while to arrive

 

[LetThemEatCake]

I like it. It's extremely hydrating and you can feel it on your skin hours after application, which I like in an eye cream, instead of something that just sinks in immediately and leaves you feeling dry.

 

[michyed]

^Same here! I don't like lightweight eye gels. They sink in much too fast! Do you think the Hyaluronic Eye Cream is suitable for daytime use? I am using the Mario Badescu Olive Eye Cream, and I feel like it is way too heavy for the daytime - it somehow manages to make its way onto my glasses. Icky!

How do you like the Shiseido Men Cleansing Foam? I use The Skincare Extra-Gentle one...interested somewhat in the Men's one, and I dont ever gravitate to products that are specifically 'for men' but this one, yes, would like to know how you like it...do you have dry skin?

Nice Sisley products too, I love love love the Express Gel Flower Mask and the Lysait.

 

[rayoflight]

The Cleansing Foam is nice, cleans perfectly without drying too much, even when my skin become all-over dry like now (I'm more normal-combi normally). It's one of the few rinsable cleansers that I like, accentually. Doesn't latter up too much, I think Shiseido formulated this one without SLS and such, I think I still have the box somewhere, could post the ingredients I you like. Basically it's like a gentler version of Estee Lauder Perfectly Clean, they even taste similarly, I found out by accident.

Yes... Sisley The only line that makes my skin happy no matter what. I don't know why I even bother with something else.

I love Mario Badescu. They have amazing customer service. My order arrived today, along with 7 testers and 3 free products. My skin is in for a treat tonight!

L'Occitane Shea Cotton Cleansing Milk
Mario Badescu Healing & Soothing Mask
Mario Badescu Facial Spray With Aloe, Herbs And Rosewater
Mario Badescu Special Cucumber Lotion
Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Emulsion with Vitamin C
Mario Badescu Hydrating Moisturizer With Biocare & Hyaluronic Acid
Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Eye Cream (great on the lips too!)

I just noticed that there is rubbing alcohol in the Special Cucumber Lotion. Ick. It doesn't seem to dry or irritate my face, but would it be a bad idea to continue using it?

 

[LetThemEatCake]

I have a sample of the Cucumber Cleansing Lotion...its a toner but I notice that it appears to almost emulsify a bit when I use it after cleansing.

Anyhow it hasnt irritated me. That's really cool of Mario Badescu to send you 3 free products! Which ones did they send you? B)

And thank you rayoflight for your info about the Shiseido.

 

[The_Ida]

Do we have a Mario Badescu thread?

I'm just sticking to Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre and Bioderma Crealine cleanser.

 

[LetThemEatCake]

Do we have a Mario Badescu thread?

It's strange... Maybe they don't put much alcohol into the Cucumber Lotion, it really does emulsify the skin. It smells very strong though

I got these 3 freebies: Special Cucumber Lotion, Acne Facial Cleanser, AHA Botanical Body Wash!

 

[LetThemEatCake]

^^Very cool.

Today, for moi, (nothing feels better than a smooth conditioned and soft face)
Shiseido The Skincare Extra-Gentle Cleansing Foam (cant wait to use this up and move onto Chantecaille's Rice & Geranium Foaming Cleanser for a pre-shave)
Clarins Gentle Exfoliating Refiner (also through with purchasing this exfoliant after this tube is up, after many many years I've found a replacement-Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Gentle Exfoliant is also a physical 'scrub' but in a soothing gel texture that you smooth over, it becomes lighter when ready to rinse off)

Mario Badescu Seaweed Night Cream

 

[LetThemEatCake]

That reminds me, I have some of the Seaweed Night Cream, how do YOU like it? Liking the Hylauronic Eye?

The entire Diamond line of Natura Bisse is beautiful. I love the Diamond Extreme Cream. Your skin lights up. Bheart:

 

[michyed]

^You know, I didn't expect much from it because there were a lot of negative reviews about it on MUA... But surprise, I love it! The texture is thick, but not in a oily or greasy way. A little bit goes a long way- I have a feeling this tester will last me forever. When I woke up this morning my skin was glowing! It's never looked this great in a long time How are you liking it?
As for the Hyaluronic Eye Cream, I like it a lot more than the Olive Eye Cream (which is too greasy). The Hyaluronic is very rich & moisturizing, but it isn't greasy and doesn't smudge my glasses Once again, I can't quite understand the negative reviews on MUA either!
