| | | Anyone use Burts Bees? I just got the grapefruit conditioner and poppyseed face wash. The face wash is really interesting - smells good, but it feels weird to have the poppyseeds on my face. I dont get that many breakouts, so do you guys think its ok to use this instead of a facewash such as Neutrogena? (before this i tried the neutrogena blackhead eliminating facewash/pads, but they didnt do anything to get rid of the blackheads.) |

| | | I'm interested to know how you end up liking it. I have been thinking about trying some of their stuff other than lip balm for a while. |

| | | I'm interested too in how it works for you. I honestly didn't know that they had more than just chapstick/ lip balm. I heard that the burts bee lip balm works well for chapped lips!

| | | yeah, they have a ton of stuff...body wash, insect repellent, lotion, stuff to heal brusies...all of it is around 99% natural (comes from plants instead of using chemicals.) they even have a line of makeup that is called wings of love. |

I get sample packs from burts bees that have a bunch of stuff in them. It's like $20 and has a bunch of different products so you can see what you like. |

There is a chance the poppyseed face wash could dry you out. If you are following it with a good moisturizer, you may help eliminate this from happening. Try it for a few days and see how it does.
If you have blackheads in certain places (on your nose), try something for impacted pores such as Philosophy's Crisis Intervention kit for Large Impacted Pores or Bliss Steep Clean mask.

yes. guys can use burts bees too hahaha | I know what that is... Res Q Ointment!!! It's so great! It works on ANYTHING!!! I use it whenever I get a blister from wearing "but but not practical" shoes. It's in a little green tin! Love!
For the gals... they also have these really pretty lip shimmer sticks (can't think of the exact name) and they taste pepperminty and go on light like a gloss, but with color. I am addicted to those things, especially the nutmeg color.
I tried the lemon poppyseed wash... it's weird to me cause it is so thick, not like a typical face wash. I couldn't get used to it so it's sitting in my cabinet. I just didn't feel like I was getting clean with it??? |

If you have blackheads in certain places (on your nose), try something for impacted pores such as Philosophy's Crisis Intervention kit for Large Impacted Pores or Bliss Steep Clean mask. | thanks for the advice - my skin is fairly oily & my nose/chin are covered in tiny blackheads. i have to look close in a mirror to really tell they are there, but they still drive me nuts. i have tried all of the products that you can buy at places like target that are supposed to get rid of them with no luck whatsoever. i used to use the blackhead strips and i could see what it had taken off on the strip but i couldnt tell a difference on my face (later i learned that those are worthless and may even make the problem worse.)
have you used the philosophy to get rid of blackheads like the ones i have? | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
