Anyone still use Prescriptives?

I still use their False Eyelashes Mascara. They just started their family and friends sale. 30% off I think and free shipping.

Prescriptives makes my most favorite lipstick shade ever. I have been wearing it for at least 10 years and buy a back up everytime they have a sale lol.

Yep, just ordered more False Eyelashes Mascara and their Lip Specialist balm, which is second to none. I'm not normally a lip balm user, but this stuff is the best - unlike any other.

And yes, free shipping!

The lip balm sounds intriguing. I wish Prescriptives listed ingredients because I am curious what is in it that makes it work so well.

@gidgetgh

I received 4 mascaras today. It is by far my favorite.

Does anyone know if they are still owned by Estee Lauder? They aren't showing up on the EL brand list anymore but I can't find any recent information about the company since they stopped selling in stores some years back.

ETA: Just found it for those interested- they are still owned by Estee Lauder as indicated on the Prescriptives website.

I am looking for a new lipstick after Paula's Choice discontinued my all-time favorite sheer cream lipstick. May I ask what color the Prescriptives lipstick is your most favorite?

Rose Mystique. It is a neutral pinkish brown and has looked good on me through all my hair color changes. I was reading reviews for the lipsticks and it looks like you can exchange them for a different color if you don't like it. I am thinking of branching out and trying a different shade.

I still use False Eyelashes as well. I wish they would at least bring back the mascara on QVC. Have been ordering directly from the company.

@Luvs Beauty- I'd love to see QVC bring it back also.

@MissSugarKane - I unfortunately threw the box away for the Lip Specialist, or I would post the ingredients. I don't know why they don't have them listed on the web site. I just know they don't have peppermint or menthol or any of those horrible types of ingredients.

And it is not Vaseline/wax like. It is kind of like a smooth light cream. It works great, and I always put a little above my lip to prevent any lines from showing up there!

Many years ago, an attorney sitting next to me clued me in on it. She said she always uses it when flying because of the dryness on the plane.

Thanks for the info, I think I am going to try it. I have enough waxy vaseline type lip products and my lips are still dry with them so this sounds like it is worth a try.

I hope you like it. Some of those others have ingredients that can actually dry out and irritate your lips. This sinks right in. It's $18.00, but I think the 30% off is still going on, plus free shipping. I ordered an extra for my granddaughter who is lip balm addict, lol! Let us know how it works for you.

@HerRoyaLioness- thanks for receommending the Lip Specialist Balm. I just placed my second family and friends order, yet another false eyelashes mascara, and added two of the Lip Specialist Balms. I'm looking forward to trying it.

@gidgetgh - it really is a good sale - I also have 2 orders coming! Hope you like the lip balm, it was an iconic product that sort of fell by the wayside when they took prescriptives out of the stores.

Yes! I have continued to use a few PX products now that they are online.

I love the Super Line Preventor, and in desperation this summer got the tube of Super Line Filler concentrate and use it on the wrinkles above my lips, pat it in and not only do the wrinkles look diminished and my skin smoother, but my lipstick stays in place nicely. It's a great product for me. Doesn't irritate my extremely sensitive skin.

I dug out some older px blushes for fair complexions and they are still gorgeous, had forgotten about them as I tried new things. Definitely using these again. I also like some of their foundations, and the tint of them is perfect for fair skin.

Wish they still had in-store counters, as I was always drawn into their beautiful products and displays while shopping, but it's nice they are available online.
