Hi all,
I want to give my highest marks to a product I've been using since last Fall, Tata Harper's Rejuvenating Serum. This is a truly amazing and all-natural product that plumps up my skin, tightens my pores, and takes years off of my face. In fact, after a stint trying out all the Ageless Secret (AS, ASG, ASD) products and really wanting to like them, I realized just how difficult it is to compete with Tata's product.
In the Fall, I was at a fashion show backstage where Tata herself was giving mini-facials to the models. She generously offered to give me one, and I obliged. My skin was glowing and so incredibly gorgeous, and when she saw how excited I was, she gave me some full-size products to try. Of course I loved the whole range, but the star is the Rejuvenating SErum for me. I haven't tried the whole line, as it is quite expensive, but can vouch that the other products are all-natural and effective. I'm now on my second bottle, which I bought at the pricey price of $150, but one can use it sparingly every day and it will last 7-9 months.
The rejuvenating serum leaves my skin plumped up, matte, and seemingly lit from within. My skin tone evens out and my skin stays hydrated. It doesn't leave a film on the skin and mixes well with tinted moisturizers and hydrosols.
The smell is divine, too.

Hi Avalange, I have also been using the Tata Harper line and the serum has quickly become my all time favourite skin care product. The effect I am getting is plumped up skin which remains hydrated for hours, less sensitivity, less break outs, more even tone and more radiance. I love the scent and texture of it and have recommended it to all my friends. It is magical stuff. |

havana,
Can you tell us about the rebuilding moisturizer, and how it works with the serum?
I may be interested in buying one of the two moisturizers for a fall-winter cream. My skin gets dry when the humidity leaves.
Thanks!

Hi avalange! For me, the moisturizer worked well with the serum. It's light (as in thin) but very spreadable so it goes quite far. I was surprised at how little you need plus it leaves you with a matte finish which is nice. I was also wondering if it would be a touch sticky with honey in it but I didn't find that.
I have been wondering about the irritability blend so it's great to hear that people love it and that it works. Has anyone tried the aromatic stress blend? I'd be interested to hear how they compare.
I did want to mention that if you happen to be sensitive to scent, most of the products do have an obvious (though lovely) flowery scent that does linger so you may want to try samples before springing for full sizes. |

I do not for a minute doubt kassy's DIY skills but here are my thoughts.
This product was put together by someone who seriously thought things out - not a company, no board of directors, she doesn't answer to people to cheapen or decrease active ingredients. Her pride is that it is so chock full and made in a way that she knows what she wanted the end result to be.
I'm thinking Tata put this together: to be the be all end all in exactly the way she intended.
So - sure you can add to it but I have to wonder if the change you get would be worth messing with a $150.00 high-quality product.
Just my thoughts. |

I recently tried several Tata Harper samples of their serums, eye cream, and another normally very expensive cream. I have to honestly admit, I was not impressed, definitely not to spend the huge amount of money that the products are selling for. If you are looking for super high quality all organic/natural products go with The Body Deli - they are the BEST I have ever used! |
