Well after all your raves I had to try it!!! 
I ordered the Rubi and a trial size of the Ambrosia a while back and have been using them in conjunction with my PSF C serum and eye cream (  ).
I have to say I prefer the Ambrosia to the Dr H Rose cream  never thought I would say that!! It smells beautiful, a little goes a Lonnnng way and it sinks in beautifully and hasn't broken me out at all (I was a bit worried as it seemed very rich but it just sinks in - takes a minute or so but really nice), the Rubi is also lovely and again didn't break me out, I'm not sure if its the PSF C or the Rubi or the combination of the two but my skin looks brighter, my freckles appear less obvious and something seems to have boosted the protection of my SPF as no new freckles have popped up even after being out in the sun (using my Total Block and Photoderm too).
Elizabeth is brilliant - really helpful and I know its not important but the products are beautifully presented and a pleasure to use.
I want to try the mask next - mainly as it has choccy in it!!!!  |

Glad you love RYF, Lucia.
Everyday, I use the champagne toner and it just makes my skin feel yummy. The Ambrosia is my HG winter moisturizer, and I was going to email Elizabeth to see if she can concoct an Ambrosia-Lite for the summer for me as the Lustre is a little too light and the Ambrosia a little too heavy when it gets warm!!!
I've heard nothing but good about the chocolate mask! yum.
I've never tried the Dr. H Rose cream, but to hear you like it better is pretty amazing considering the adoration for Dr. H's products - I have not got around to trying them yet,but like everything else here, I'm sure I will!

Hi!
Yes I ws eyeing the champagne toner actually!!
I was wondering about the Lustre actually - interesting you think its too light for the summer - what skin type do you have ( if you don't mind me asking!  ) As I was wondering if the Ambrosia might be a bit too rich for me in the warmer weather too.
I would love for Elizabeth to do a 'travel pack' of sample sizes of all her yummy products!!! |

My skin is normal to dry in summer - dry, dry, dry in winter!
I did find last summer that the Ambrosia was a little too much, so just used it every other night and had my skin waking up smooth and soft the next day!
Love the idea of a travel pack - I guess you could get everything in sample size for travelling! That's how I first tried out the products - sampling, then loving!

| I liked the Ambrosia very much. My only complaint is that it comes in a jar, and I much much prefer a tube because I end up contaminating everything with my fingers! |

I agree with chimera. My ambrosia sample went bad after just a few months sitting in the medicine cabinet 
FYI, mariav and Lucia. If you ladies would kindly put your skintype, problems etc in your sig, that would be great. I have noticed more and more people have that info and they have been very helpful. |

Chimera, I use a little spatula I got with another cream to keep my fingers out of it.
Still loving the ambrosia and Rubi. Might have to get samples of the other items to try though!!! |
