| I won a voucher last week and would like to invest in an at home facial. They have so many lines here that I am overwhelmed. What is the closest I can get to a REAL facial? |

| For me, Juice Beauty's Green Apple peel leaves my skin even smoother than when I get a facial, so if you're really looking for that soft, glowy feeling you get at the salon, that would be my pick! If you really want to indulge, you can then top it off with some kind of nice essential oil massage, using one of Decleor's aromatherapy oils, or the PSF balancing oil. |

I guess there are different types of facials for different skin types so the question might be which one are you after?
In my opinion, a "standard" facial would include a good cleanser, an exfoliator, a mask and then a moisturiser. Depending on skin type, the mask might be deep cleansing or moisturising and the exfoliators might also be different. I guess this is my rather naive view as I do my own facials so I don't know much about what is available in the salons.
If it is a peel you're after then JB Green Apple Peel is nice, as is the Pevonia Enzymo Spherides. I hear Dermalogica also makes a very good peel but I have not tried this one. |

mabsy,
another question!!!
Which is better in your opinion - the pevonia or the juice beauty??? Am running out of my current Emergin C Peel which has been great, but thought I'd go for something different this time.... |

Pretty similar in effect - they are both good peels. The JB Green Apple makes my skin a bit red, the Pevonia doesn't. In all honesty, I haven't used my Arbonne peel for a while but I think I prefer that one. I need to use it again and check  |

| Clarisonic should be included in any at-home facial routine. It's such a pleasure to use- it feels like a mini-spa experience. Increases the efficacy of other products as well. A must-get! |

What do you mean by this? Is it a kit? Because what you said is EXACTLY what I am looking for- a "mini-spa experience" |

| It is a motorised skin care brush created by the makers of Sonicare toothbrush. It uses sonic technology and vibrates at a rate of 300 movements per second, giving skin a super deep clean. It has unclogged my pores and evened out my skin tone like no other. EDS sells it for USD$195. |

| I know it sounds stupid but I love to buy those facial sponges and use them to take off my mask...it seems to really pull everything out of your pores and feels good. I love juice beauty green apple peel. |
