Peter Thomas Roth Laser-Free Regenerator Moisturizing Gel-Cream

Fancy Talk, Didn't walk "the walk"

With GREAT fan fare I received a Deluxe size sample (in Sephora's world this amounts to .5 oz- to be fair, I will note the Beauty industry in general can be quite stingy with their freebies considering they are competing with thousands of brands for your expendable, or not, income;). So the 'Beauty expert" at my beloved Black & White store went on & ON about the miraculous nature of this pot of gold I was getting...and for "FREE" no less! I won't tell you how many "Beauty Points" I have accumulated over this last year alone, so make NO mistake, this .5 oz. miracle worker didn't come "FREE". It actually came in a mini kit as a 500 point perk (clue as to my spending habits and I still had for more mini kits to spare:( So I went home and for a week used the kit as a system as suggested...well unfortunately, the most remarkable thing about this particular set was the Beauty Expert's fanfare. If you can get it for "free" (remember I use the term loosely), as a points perk and you want to try it,then I say go for it...but otherwise, leave this OVERLY hyped mini-kit behind the counter, where Sephora employees Cheerily dig it out from as you're no doubt swiping away with your debit card ;)

Ole Henriksen Pick Me Up Tonic

Pick Me Up face Tonic

Just recently purchased this and I have to say that I am pleasantly surprised. I was so used to astringent "type" products leaving my face feeling stripped'. Well I feel I have found the BEST of BOTH worlds- astringent 'type' results: renewed feeling skin, that squeaky clean feeling, and of course MINIMIZED PORES!!! ...with NONE of the downside: dry, irritated skin!
