Clientele Elastology Peptide Hydration Cream

A lotion light enough for summer that works well enough for winter!
Smooths skin, refines.
Serious anti-oxidants, even has Pumpkin!
You can put it on over a serum for added punch--it plays well with others.
I use at night-- not that you can't use for day, I just want to stretch out bottle :)
Makes my skin all radiant and glowy.
Doesn't cause breakouts or any skin weirdness.
I ADORE!!!

Glytone Acne Treatment Kit (Anti-Irritating)

This 3-piece kit includes:

  • Self Foaming Cleanser
  • 3P Gel
  • Acne Lotion

Truly an acne-fighting system for people who don't want to hurt their skin! Not just for adults, my 14 year old nephew uses (& loves, as much as 14 year old boys can love skin care).

The self-foaming cleaner is AWESOME.
You can totally feel it working.
Eats all the nasty stuff, leaves your face clean but not overly-dry.

The 3P gel has benzoyl peroxide-- it will bleach your sheets and shirts. Use just a touch on zits, and ALWAYS use sun block (especially when using benzoyl peroxide).

The Acne lotion has Salicylic Acid, which is good for treating & preventing zits.

I recommend this--especially the cleanser!!!

Boscia Restorative Eye Treatment for Under-eye Bags

Crazy-good cream that de-puffs and lightens circles.
It's got peptides & anti-oxidants and all sorts of good stuff.

The missing ingredients? Preservatives, parabens...

Love the pump, don't have to stick my fingers into a pot of cream over & over again.

Doesn't sting or make my eyes water, just works!
I also use it on my upper eye lids, which tend to get dark and swollen.

Vapour Organic Beauty


vapour
-n
1.particles of moisture or other substance suspended in air and visible as clouds, smoke, etc.
2.a substance that is in a gaseous state at a temperature below its boiling point
3.rare, something fanciful that lacks permanence

Definition number 3 fits this product line best.

Vapour Organic Beauty is a rare, luxurious line, providing stunning shades of skin care and face, lip, cheek, and eye color. Magazines Lucky and Allure obsess over this stuff!! My personal favorite gems out of this seemingly endless treasure chest of beauty, is their Siren Lipstick. Siren comes in sixteen, long lasting, moisturizing colors and is made of pure plant ingredients!

Sally Hansen~Crackle Overcoat

Have you tried this stuff yet??? For a while, I could not find this Sally Hansen product ANYWHERE!!! Paint Crackle Overcoat over your favorite hue of polish and watch as it almost magically dries into a two tone crackle finish! Try as many color combinations as you can fathom! Your nail look can go from gothic to girly, depending on what duo you choose! Watch out for off-brand copies of this product. Stick with Sally-she knows her stuff!!

"A sophisticated heat beam which we call a 'laser.'"

Oh yes, Laser Hair Removal.
The final hair frontier.
6-8 sessions; painless, permanent hair reduction/removal.
And here comes my skeptical face, right?
I was so wrong to question modern science!

I have had 3 sessions already.
No real pain yet-- just antsy legs from holding them still.

Before lasering: I would shave under my arms every morning and it would look like I hadn't shaved by bed time.

After lasering: I can go 3-5 days, comfortably, between shaves.

Seriously, my hair sprouts faster than tie-dye at a Grateful Dead show. Faster than tell-all books after a political scandal. Real fast;)

If it works on me, it will work on you*.

I go to Raja at the Michigan Laser Center. Tell her Kate sent you! She is the nicest lady, totally put me at ease--very important, depending on the area you have lasered! You couldn't ask for anyone better!!! The facility is clean, the lasers are premium, and the prices are reasonable (considering).

*I am super pale with DARK hair-- finally works in my favor! I also have a high pain tolerance, apparently.
