Some Things To Show You

Hello Everyone,
  Thanks for taking the time to read my blog post.  I recently went to Rite Aid and ran across a few clearance items that were a bit unique so I thought I'd share them with you.  I've used most of them at this point except one and I'll get back to you on that one.  Here is the link to the corresponding video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNqWz5uettk
  The first item is the Modele brand Facial Peel Clothes.  They are sort of like the pre-moistened make up removing clothes etc that you can find about anywhere these days.  I use those on a regular basis.  These are not intended for that and you are actually supposed to cleanse your face before using them.  One side has a "grainy" texture, almost like a fine grit sand paper but softer.  It feels quite nice and ex foliating which is always good!  The other side is just soft cloth.  You use the grainy side first and then the other.  Wait 1-2 minutes, then rinse with warm water.  The package claims this: an extremely effective one-step and easy to use peel system, thanks to their combined mechanical and chemical action. Use weekly to greatly improve the efficiency of your skin care products. It also claims you will see immediate results.  While I do like the feel of them I did not experience any immediate noticeable results after one use.  I will keep using them and let you know what I think after at least two weeks of use.  They were originally $14.99 at Rite Aid but on clearance for $4.99.  I'm not sure if that means they will no longer be selling them or not but you can still order them online at this website in the UK that ships to the US.  They are $14 pounds there with free shipping.  http://www.thebeautygenie.com/Face/c3/index.html
  The next product I show you in my video is the Divinci Clogged Pore Strips, much like the Biore brand strips that remove blackheads and oils to unclog pores.  This is the product I have yet to try but will certainly update you here and the video when I do.  The line is "for men" but I don't see why a woman couldn't use them.  There are only four in the package and were originally $5.99.  I find that a little pricey to be honest.  I will use one and ask my Husband to do the same and I'll let you know if we think they are worth the original price in case you can't find them on clearance like I did for $1.49.

  I also picked up a cuticle remover that was originally $2.99 but was only $.74.  I think I know why...it didn't work.  Well, it didn't work for me.  I used it exactly as directed on the package with no cuticle removed at all.  Not my favorite I must say.


The final item was the Rite Aid brand buffing block for nails.  I really love these things and have used several brands, from expensive to prices like this one, and they all seem to work rather well to be honest.  This one was originally $2.99 and was $1.49 on clearance.  These buffing blocks really get the ridges out of your nails as well as put back the natural shine to where you almost don't even want to polish them they look so good!


  Well, that's all for now.  If you would like to see more product intro's just let me know.  I really love doing them for you!  Have a great day and don't forget to watch the corresponding video!
Thanks,
Nicole










Modele Facial Peel Clothes-I did end up using this one time so far and though it feels good when using it I didn't see any "immediate" results. I am going to continue using them though and will update once I've done that. The grainier side feels quite nice and ex-foliating and the other side is fairly soft. I did try to register my product purchase but the website seemed wonky.
**UPDATE as of February 25, 2011.  These are a waste of money in my opinion.  Especially if you pay $14.99 for them.  I didn't see any results and they all dried out in the pack quickly.
Originally $14.99 Clearance $4.99
Divinci Clogged Pore Strips-I have no used these as of yet but will be doing so this evening and will update tomorrow.
$5.99 originally 1.49 Clearance
Quickie Cuticle Remover-Wasn't too impressed with this. I did it exactly the way it said on the package but it didn't seem to remove anything at all.
$2.99 Originally .74 on Clearance
Rite Aid Buffing Block- Works as intended with no issues
Originally $2.99 $1.49 on clearance
