We don't do that demonstration anymore but isn't the RE9 line something? Before Arbonne I had no idea how bad mineral oil was for our skin. I tell people though just make sure your makeup doesn't have any mineral oil in it or you're defeating the whole purpose.

I LOVE the eye cream. Sometimes my eyes are a little puffy with circles but usually by the time I'm done with my makeup my eyes look better.

Have you tried the RE9 body wash? It's great but I mostly use the Awaken Aromatherapy set.

Welcome to the club! :D

LOL! I don't do it anymore but when I did I would put the mineral oil in one and water in the other. Then I would place a ritz cracker in each bowl. The cracker in the oil would be hard as a rock and of course the one in the water would be soggy. It's basically just showing that if you use any products on your skin with mineral oil in it, it's not penetrating the skin just sitting on top.

Our products have oil in some of them but they're all plant based which is the best for your skin. Actually all of Arbonne's products are botanically based.

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 07:30 AM
You really have to see it to believe it!! YIKES!! I was soooooo freaked out.. I will never buy MK or anything with mineral oil in it every again... NOT just sitting on top... NO WAY....that cracker was scary...It made a loud snap... I never expected that. It was so hard and crunchy... Try it.. You will never put that stuff on your skin again..
UGH! And the stories of MK products making a white milky looking substance ooozze out of the pores.. It takes about two weeks of the Re9 stuff to decontaminate you after all of the mineral oil products... UGH... They could not have picked a better scent for it either..I stick oranges and lemons down my garbage disposal to make my kitchen smell good...
And just to let you know....I ordinarily do not think I would handle being called a BUTTFACE very well....but I guess under these circumstances....I will consider it an honor...

ok.... While I'm shamelessly raving.... My youngest child has eczema pretty bad.. She uses a LOT of elidel and what we call "lube" (basically any lotions that do not make her skin worse...) That arbonne baby lotion is the best... Considering we really "lube" her up good and put her in footy style pj's in the winter to let her soak it in...it has lasted forever!

You can also use the skin conditioning oil on her. My daughter has mild eczema behind her ears and I use that.

I have clients who have psoriasis and I recommended the baby lotion, skin conditioning oil and the rejuvenating cream and although it won't make the condition disappear it's helped them alot.

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 07:46 AM
My arbonne rep was awesome...she helped me "win" my first bottle of baby lotion so that I could try it out cause my little one's skin is soooo finicky I was of course not only skeptical, but VERY reluctant to torture her with a new product.. BTW...my poor baby was so bad her first two years that her cute little bottom felt like fine grit sandpaper... Thank goodness its not as bad as it was then..
Hey!! Carolyn....Am I gonna get some kinda Kick Backs for ravin so much?? Just kidding... I will keep buying the stuff till they change it or quit making it for me..
Bren

Brutus'mama 03-09-2006 07:56 AM
LOL! Bren! You know there is BIG changes coming soon! They're going to be doing their biggest product launch ever. They're trying to keep it a secret but we're kind of assuming it's going to be another superior product line.

So many people are skeptical that's why I try and always have samples on hand so they can try it first.

Speaking of samples I have some of the whole baby line too if anyone wants to try that. :)

Carolyn,

My son gets these red splotches on his face during the summer. We have used the Eledel that Scrapbetter mentioned and it usually works, but I have to get a prescription for it. Do you think the baby lotion and/or oil will work for him?

Thanks,

Louise

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 08:09 AM
When is the product launch?? I'm also a consultant for a DS company and ours is in April....so I will have to wait till May to crack open my own checkbook.. Yes I sell stuff to support my own personal habit, plus buy the arbonne...plus other stuff... I only have my regular job for insurance purposes...and to pay for the girls private school tuition and stuff... WHATEVER So just tell me it is not April... May is a good $ month for me.. Taxes paid....furbaby paid for....summer child care only...no tuition payments.. cheap summer clothes for kids.. (Thank GOD for Target...)
JUST SAY MAY....
Bren

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 08:22 AM
Direct Sales... Like Arbonne...Tupperware...Mary Kay...Pampered Chef...Homemade Gourmet...etc...etc...etc....

Does your doctor recommend any other moisturizers? We've kept prescriptions for Elidel and Protopic for Kylie... If it's eczema, the baby lotion might surprise you pleasantly. I was very amazed at how good the stuff is.. It doesn't feel gross when we are rubbing it into her either.. Since it is his face...You will probably want to ask. We have to be more careful with Kylies face. We cannot use the protopic...but I use the Arbonne baby lotion on her face all through winter...She loves it...And her cheeks dont get as crusty... Sorry for any of you who have never dealt with this.. It is not contagious...but pretty pitiful condition..
Bren

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 08:23 AM
OK...I'm not saying I'm sorry you have never dealt with it...I'm grateful for you...but I'm sorry if any of it is gross to you.

Louise is it excema? It's only in the summer? I'd be happy to send you the baby sample to try on him. It comes with hair and body wash, lotion, oil, diaper rash cream and sunscreen.

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 08:29 AM
I'm with TLC... I dont really have time for sales anymore though. I've built a fantastic team and mostly I teach now...at local stores...I get more contacts...I stay busy and I'm able to help my team stay busy.. I could not do it full time though...My oldest has over $1000.00 of meds per month...so regular job it is for me since they pay for that...and more. The TLC feeds my addiction... I have always been a photo nut...and for the last ten years I have used that addiction to feed my scrapbooking addiction...and now TLC helps to pay for that...and other stuff.. It's been a lot of fun.

I think it is excema. He only seems to have problems with it in the summer, I think the chlorine in the pool affects it. Or it could just be the sun. I was asking about the baby products because scrapbetter had mentioned them. Even though he is MY baby :rolleyes: he is actually 14 yrs old! So if you did send samples, I don't think I need the diaper rash cream :D ! Is there any adult products that you think would work or are the baby products the best for excema?

Louise

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 08:36 AM
I use the baby lotion for me also.. It feels good.. It is not gross and sticky or thick and greasy...It doesnt smell wierd...It's just right.
AWWWWEEEE.

LOL!! I recommend the baby lotion for adults since it's for very sensitive skin. I would have to send the diaper cream since the sample comes in a strip but you don't have to use it on him! :D

scrapbetter 03-09-2006 08:58 AM
That diaper creme can come in handy for others also.... Drop it by a day care if you dont want to know. They will use it.. But if you are unfortunate enough to have had chemo and radiation in your lower abdomenal area, diaper creme can help with at least one of the horrible side affects.. Sorry again if I'm grossing someone out..

After reading the thread on skincare for us women....http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...ght=face+cream

I went on a mission to improve the texture and dryness of my skin and after reading for 2 weeks about skin care....I contacted Carolyn...Brutus'Mama.

She sent me some samples of her Arbonne products that she sells and I am AMAZED at what my skin looked like this morning ..it's softer...not as tight and my pores are miniscule again. My makeup looks 100% better and I love it !

I HAD to brag about these products....

She sent me enough samples to last probably more than a week and I already am loving how my skin and makeup looks....even my husband can tell a difference in 2 days ...WOW

Carolyn....Thank you so much for taking the time to send me the samples of your product so I could try before I buy.....

Best Regards...
Buttface..... formerly known as Villette :D
Dear Buttface, I want to be a BUTTFACE toooooooooo!!!! I just PMed Carolyn. YOU made me laugh till my sides hurt! Shame, Shame....LOL!!!!!
Thanks for sales pitch........I'm out of my regular face "stuff" so I'm ready to try something new. I have fish scale skin.......DRY! Thanks and hugs,
