Comment on Shany © 100pc Makeup Kit Heart and Kisses – Eyeshades, Blush, Lipgloss -Cameo Collection by C. D. maze

blush portion slider box was not attached so I had to attach it myself. The blush was smudged looking like someone had tried to attach the slider portion and failed. Otherwise decent product, just disappointing that I have to give it to someone with smudges in the makeup considering I have no time to wait on a new one.

I would buy again probably as it came in a pretty box and was a nice compact starter kit for a teen or addition to the basics.

this product is soo great. we all know that these balckheads and whiteheads are tough to get out from the skin and squeezing them out is really deadly when it comes to scaring. but i must admit it is painful to remove but faster than anything else i ever used. it gets the grim out from deep within with a few seconds of pressure!!! love it!!! but i must remind you. no pain no gain.

Well.. it removes minor face oils , makes your face really red, which is normal.. since you’re squeezing out ‘stuff’ but i can’t get out real blackheads with this thing.. from the look of it, i thought it was really effective but it’s not & not very easy to use either.

i am kind of discouraged to try more

i am afraid it’s going to scar

The flat end of this tool is great for removing blackheads. I even find it works well on clogged pores (pre-blackhead).

It's important to loosen/open your pores before trying any kind of removal. A shower, steam facial or warm cloth over the face for a few minutes are all that's needed. After, get out the magnifying mirror and go to it! Be sure to sterilize the tool before and after use.

I've not had a lot of luck with milia (whiteheads), mine are just too stubborn! Rating: 4 / 5

This tool is better than using your fingers in order to avoid turning a black head into an infected pustule. However, how you use it is very important. The tool must be kept clean, the manufacturer recommends rubbing alcohol I believe. Usually with the end with the smaller loop, I apply light pressure on top of the black head for a few seconds and stop if nothing is coming out. You can try again later. The tool may leave a temporary red impression on your face, but it will disappear as long you used it for a few seconds. This tool is not intended for pustules (but you can try Zeno Pro Acne Clearing Device for pustules at early stages). I have found this tool to work fairly well for black heads that are not too small and are closer to the skin’s surface (not for milia). For day-to-day skin care, the best practice is to exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate, so that black heads cannot form in the first place. In addition, monthly facials have proven effective to prevent acne. If you are going to pick your face (but you shouldn’t), get this tool!

I bought it even after reading not the best reviews I was desperate. The small end works great on black heads and those greasy pores that just have stuff in them but isn’t hard like black heads. I shower first and then use my magnifying mirror and well its the grossest cool thing ever to just get all that junk out of your skin. White heads are a little different still shower and use your mirror but use the big flat side but first use the thinnest needle you can find poke the center of the white head and then put the flat side over and well yuck. You have to open the pore up first and give all that stuff a exit point. My skin looks so much better now because my big problem was the scabbing the acne would leave with this I dont have that issue any more. I promise I dont work for the company I just really love this thing way better then using your fingers and adding more bacteria to your pores.

I purchased this product and Burt’s Bees Mama Bee body balm and the Mama Bee body oil. I was two months when I started applying them alternately after showers. After a while rash began to appear on my belly. My doctor told me it’s kind of normal and not to worry. The rash may not be related to the products, but I found that using more of my old body lotion and sometimes the Mambino belly butter or Burt’s Bees body oil makes my rash appear less.

I love the texture and the smell of Mambino’s belly butter. The butter is like solidified cream and is easier to scoop with a finger — much easier than a balm — and it quickly melts in my palm and on my belly. It is not as greasy as a balm, either. Its lemony mango smell always puts me in a good mood. Now I use this butter or Burt’s Bees body oil whenever I need a quick aroma therapy. As far as stretch mark goes, I was told that it was in your genes and had not much to do with what you put on your belly (I don’t have any yet but fingers crossed), but I would love to think that by putting on something nurishing I was doing my job I definitely would love to use this product more often if not bothered by pregnancy rash.

This product is the best thing I’ve accidentally come across EVER! With stretch marks a little bit of research goes a long way; however we can’t escape the fact that these wonderful marks are basically hereditary. If your mother had them chances are you will too. For this reason, prevention attempts seem rather futile, but women like to hold out hope. During my first pregnancy I tried the cocoa butter thing, taking vitamin E pills and even dabbing vitamin E oil on my tummy. None of it worked. My stretch marks were horrible. Over the years I considered Mederma, but figured it would turn out to be a waste and gave up. Losing weight helped the appearance some. The red centers faded, and the smaller lines became nothing more than light colored ripples. Still, I was never totally thrilled with the way the bigger ones looked. When I got pregnant a second time, I was so happy I barely considered what a growing fetus would do to my tummy. That changed during the middle of my sixth month. My mother, ever tactful, warned that if I didn’t put some sort of lotion on my growing belly my stretch marks would get stretch marks. I wanted to rebel in the worst way, but reality is inescapable. In a semi depressed state I turned to my friend amazon.com and found Mambino oh baby! belly butter. This organic product aids in the rebound and anti-stretch of skin. I’m not an organic nut, but it was a total selling point for me. I found the idea of putting something natural on my stomach more appealing then the latter. I’ve been using Belly Butter for almost three weeks now and the effects are A M A Z I N G! All, I repeat ALL, of my stretch marks are fading. New, old, red, white. Every single one of them is at least four times lighter than they were at the beginning of the pregnancy. Women get stretch marks for more reasons than just having baby, so pregnant or not you should give this product a try. It costs about thirty and change, but it’s so unbelievably worth it that even I (poor as poor can be) didn’t bat an eye while ordering my second jar. Do yourself a favor and try it out. You won’t be disappointed.
