Has anyone tried this? I have been searching for reviews and all I can find are reviews on the HA Soy Lift and the peels. No one ever really mentions the Royal Jelly. TIA

I'm not sure about this product but I can say I use royal jelly by itself externally as a mask and it's wonderful. Firms, tightens and moisturizes. Apparently if you take a tiny spoonful (those McD coffee spoonfuls) once a day it's supposedly really good for your health and helps prevent cancer. It's good for kids too, apparently it helps them grow very tall.

I'm talking about the kinds you get from bee farmers and not supplements or the kind you get from health food stores.

I'm sure you can make your own DIY cream with royal jelly (but you'll probably need preservatives since royal jelly needs to be stored in the freezer).

The royal jelly looks soooooooo good. I emailed her some time ago before I ordered the stuff I did in the recent couple or weeks, and she never returned my email. I just told her how my skin was behaving and asked her what I should start off with, but no answer. Is she still building a house, or something like that? I remember in another post someone said that she was gone for a little while, but nonetheless, should have tried to get back to me when she came back. I gave up.

Hi razinkane,

I read on her ebay page that is very busy and it may take a month i think to get an email reply. That sucks huh? I am waiting for the soy lift to arrive for my mom (i am stealing samples too Smile ) and if i like that i might give the royal jelly a go.

So I just looked at the site and am wondering if this is like a serum or if it is more of a moisturizer? Thanks! Smile

hi gigia,

I thought it seemed like more a serum but i read that lekat (a moderator on makemeheal.com and user of many of Julie's products) uses it more as a bi-weekly treatment so i am not sure. you can check here for more info:

http://messageboards.makemeheal.com/viewtopic.php?t=3398&highlight=royal+jelly

i know what you mean, my CCs are almost "done" for now.

Thanks in advance from my cc! I bit and bought the RJ for my mid-forties aging skin (WHA!). Anyone else trying it? Let's keep in touch, this stuff sounds powerful!!

I am thinking of trying the Royal Jelly + HA but I'm wondering, do you use it instead of a moisturizer or under a moisturizer?

This is the first Royal Jelly product I've ever used. It has a sort of milky serum consistency and comes in a dark plastic pump bottle.

I think you can use it as a serum or as a weekly treatment. Her instruction sheet says "Topical B5. Apply it onto clean skin, using a few drops. For maximum benefit, compress Royal Jelly twice each week to keep acne from returning and for anti-aging benefits. Wipe excess off." Her website also says that it is recommended for hormonal acne, teen acne, rosacea skin, excema skin, oily skin, aging, fine lines and sun damage.

I haven't tried the compressing method, just using a few drops on clean skin. I've found that for me, less is more. I've also mixed a few drops in the palm of my hand with whatever other serum I might be using at the time.

She really encouraged me to try doing the compresses with her proteins. I tried it with the HA Soy Lift and I was indeed surprised. I happen to think it's great stuff in any case, but the results when you do a compress of it mixed with the Pure HA is just awesome! And, that is coming from someone who definitely does NOT have dry skin ! It's definitely worth a try havana8!

I know I may be a dummy, but what do you mean by "compress". I have the Soy Lift and have ordered the RJ and would try compressing if it boosts the benefits. Like you say these things are great alone but at 45 every little bit helps!!

Really? Honest? Does nutrition affect height?

I thought it was genetic?

My children are desperate to be as tall as their grandfather, 6' 2 ( my dad) but their own father is only 5' 10"....

If I thought some royal jelly'd boost them up, I 'd get some..
