I recently started using moisturizers with sunscreen built in to protect the face from premature aging and I must say that this product does the trick. I liked that it was sheer, absorbed quickly and has SPF 45. I apply it after my regular moisturizer and feel protected all day long. Would definitely recommend trying it. -

I rarely use Body Shop products but was given this item to try as part of the Product Review Club. I was impressed as the results were better than I expected. I liked the fact that the product is organic having recently been interested in more and more eco-friendly products. Also, the texture was light, didn't feel gunky on my face, and I liked the light fragrance. Upon application, the serum instantly feels like it is tightening the skin, which I liked. I typically applied the serum, followed by my regular moisturizer and my skin felt smooth all day long. I would definitely recommend this product, particularly for those who are starting to see the first signs of wrinkles appear. -
Marcelle New-Age Anti-Wrinkle Make-Up

I am in my mid-thirties and have fairly healthy skin so I've never been one to use foundation and clog up my pores unnecessarily. But when I received this product through the Product Review Club, I figured I would give it a try. Let me just say that I am now sold on the product. I found that it glided on effortlessly and provided good coverage - a little definitely goes a long way. The texture was smooth and light, feeling as though I hardly put anything on my face at all. I also liked that it was fairly odourless and didn't challenge my perfume. As for anti-wrinkle, well it is hard to say just how effective it is for covering up wrinkles with just a few applications but I did like that it didn't crease around my eyes and forehead area. Definitely a product you should try. -

My husband bought me the Kindle 2 for Christmas and I just love it. It is by the far one of the most practical gifts I've received in a long time because I just love reading books. The problem is I have so many books on my shelf, that I am running out of shelf space. This solves all my problems, it is portable (can take on vacation) and allows me to store several books at a time. A great gift idea for the avid reader in your life. -

Use this product when hands are feeling really rough from a dry, winter's day or when you've just spend the day cleaning the bathroom, floors, and washing dishes. A spoonful rubbed all over your hands and cuticles, followed by a rinse under the tap leaves hands feeling baby soft for hours. Hands smell great too. -

I first tried this product on a business trip when the boutique hotel I was staying at was carrying a range of Bliss products. Having never tried any Bliss product before, I was a little skeptical at first. This product was a great introduction. The face wash was light enough to use daily and I liked the microbeads, which provided an exfoliator sensation. Definitely a keeper. -

I first tried this product when living in Hong Kong. Although it wasn't cheap, I thought I would give it a try as it had a great reputation in Asia. I later learned that Cate Blanchett (who I believe has amazing skin) is a spokesperson for this line of product - she is featured on their website. Need I say more? To effectively use this product, it is best applied daily and underneath your moisturizer. It acts like a toner but has more of a moisturizing effect, not a drying effect like most toners have. Essentially what I found was this product evens the look of my face, no more dry or oil spots, it nicely balances my skin and gives it a glowing look. Now I tell anyone who listens how great this product is. Again, its not cheap but well worth the investment to youthful, looking skin. -

I received this product with a gift of purchase so I didn't try it right away. Many weeks later, I found it sitting in my bathroom cabinet and figured I would finally give it a try - boy, am I glad I ever did. This lip exfoliant, which I leave on for a good 5-10 minutes (the longer, the better) leaves my lips feeling tingly (in a good way) and moisturized. The cream is quite grainy, with a cool, peppermint -like smell. And because I like to wear lipstick and am quite fanatical about having dry lips, I find this product does the job for me. For this product, a little goes a long way, which is why during the winter months, I apply it more often, at least once every two weeks. Give it a try, I'm sure you'll end up including as part of your beauty regimen. -
