I was at the mall and the SEACRET guy buffed my nail. After just a few seconds my nail turned shiny instead of dull looking. I didn't buy the kit from him because $50 sounded expensive. I looked on ebay and got mine for less than half that price.
I love how easy it is to use the buffing block. Just follow the steps printed on the buffing block by buffing your nails with the coarse side first, followed by the smooth side, and topped it off with the silky side. It's color coded, so you won't get it wrong. (I think it's gray, then blue, then white.) Anyway, I was able to do all 10 nails in less than 5 minutes, and my nails were gleaming and shiny, so perfect! I so love this product. If you haven't tried it, you should. I normally don't polish my nails since I don't want to deal with chipping and having to go for manicure every couple of weeks. This is the answer to my nail care.
As for the body lotion, I tried the ocean and the cucumber & melon scent at the mall, but the scent I'm using now is natural. I love all the scents as they are light and refreshing. I thought the natural scent was going to be fragrance free. Not so! There still is some fragrance, and it is so lovely. My bf loves it, and he usually complains when I use the victoria's secret lotion that it smells too strong.
I haven't tried any other scents because they didn't sound too attractive to me, but I'm sure if you're in to coconut or vanilla or wild kiwi, you'd like them, too. The lotion is very nice. It absorbs well, and leaves my skin feeling silky and soft.
I have to give this product 5 out of 5 stars.
Almost forgot - the kit I bought came with a body lotion, a nail buffing block, a nail file, and cuticle oil. I haven't had a chance to open the cuticle oil yet, but when the guy treated my nail at the mall, he used the oil after he buffed my nail. It made the cuticles pretty much disappear. |

my mum got one of these SeaCret kits at a shopping mall in Australia about 6 months ago. I got to play around with it when I was home and I must say the buffer is really good. I love buffing my nails when I am to lazy to polish them and find the "chunky" style buffers are much better than the flat ones.
I agree, the body lotion had a really nice feel to it.. very silky and as the Japanese would say "sara sara", which kinds of means "dry" (as in not oily). I think she had the cucumber, but the smell did not bother me (even though I hate cucumbers). I cannot remember the cuticle treatment though.. surely I tried it.... LOL |

TT, their lotion is my favorite right now. I used to like VS lotion, but they changed their formula and made it not as moisturizing. So Seacret lotion is my favorite.  I think it's supposed to be good for your skin, too. |

| I've been using the buffing block for yrs and I love it. It's so quick and easy to use. I usually pay anywhere from $5-$8 for the block depending on which salon I pick it up from. |

Yeh I too am a fan of a chunky buffing block.
I always dodge the seacret sales people in the mall out of habit but I think I'll test out the lotions' scents. |
