Shelbelle ~ Thanks!  I've never tried 100% Pure before but have been interested in her products since she was on Q.  This sale will allow me to get a nice sampling of products.

 

There are no reviews on the "Konjac" charcoal cleansing sponge.  Has anyone used this or have any information other than what's on the website?  I have a sensitive complexion and wonder if it will irritate my skin?

I really wish I could use Pure, but it irritates my skin - just because something is natural doesn't mean it will not irritate your skin

Just FYI, the cleanser that comes with the sponge is for sensitive skin, so even if you cant use the sponge, you may benefit from the cleanser.

Ok, I certainly do not want to be an alarmist, but wanted to warn those that purchased the Vit C serum. I bought it earlier this year, to use after I ran out of my previous C serum. I have mildly sensitive skin, but had used several other C serums, OTC retinol products, BHA/AHA and the like, without issues. I began using the 100% Pure and after 3 days, my face was extremely hot to the touch, blazing red, and I had dry bumps all over it. I have been active in taking care of my skin for 20+ years, and I have never had anywhere close to the reaction I had with this. Needless to say, I had to go to the dr for steroids and a hydrocortisone Rx, which did the trick, but not after several days of being miserable. I know the product has fantastic reviews, so I am obviously a rare case, but please do a patch test. I just don't want anyone else to have the same reaction I did. And, for the record, I previously have or currently do use some other products from the 100% Pure line, so I am not in any way bashing. Just wanted to warn my fellow beauties and encourage patch testing, especially with products with actives. Enjoy your purchases!!

I just got the mattifying primer last week because of the high ratings.  It feels like a regular silcone primer but without the silcone.  I can't honestly say it does much under my Bare Minerals makeup.

Hmmmmmm..... after your review @FUTURE, I think I'll pass.  It took me several tries before I found a Vit C serum my face can tolerate, so I've decided not to order the 100% Pure.  $10 is a heck of a deal, though.
