The commercials also imply that the new formulations are gentler on your skin without losing efficacy. It sounded good to [...]
Olay Regenerist Detoxifying Facial Cleanser
So, I don’t know about how this “detoxifies” but Olay’s Regenerist Detoxifying Facial Cleanser has been on my bathroom counter for the past 2 months and that’s because it is a really good cleanser.

L’Occitane’s Mud Mask Brings in the Clean
I love multi-tasking products, and this one works quite well. It’s a mask, a scrub, and best of all I can use it in the shower and still get the full benefits from using it. L’Occitane’s Face Scrub Mud, is part of their Olive Oil range of products but that shouldn’t discourage those of you [...]
