I am so excited that I received today my order of Juice Beauty products from EDS! Very Happy However, now I'm wondering how everyone manages when you have SOOO many products to use. I know I don't want to use everything everyday ... but how do you decide what to use one day and what to use another day? I always think that you should use a product on a consistent basis to see results, but I still have so much Dermalogica that I like and want to keep using and now I have these Juice Beauty products ... I think I need more faces to handle all of the products! Laughing I'm just wondering how I will manage all of them!

BTW ... I now have the Juice Beauty Green Apple Cleansing Gel, Antioxident Serum (I wonder if EDS will bring in the Green Apple version of the serum that I see in the pamphlet), Blemish Clearing Serum (I'm really hoping this will be the answer to my clogged pores) and the Sheer Moisturizer SPF30. I'm expecting the Green Apple Peel to come in late next week (it was on backorder).

My opinion so far (considering I've only used them once) is that the Sheer Moisturizer seemed to look a bit white when it went on (I just tried it on my hand tonight), but then once you blended it in, it didn't have any colour. The other products felt nice going on ... no complaints. The only thing is ... I think I smelled like I rolled around in the produce section at the local grocery store. Laughing They definitely have a "green" smell to them. But if they work ... then I don't mind smelling like lettuce. Very Happy

I have similiar problem with you too...because I keep adding something without using up my old stuff. I am using Valmont, SKII and Chanel but I just received a set of Murad from EDS yesterday. I finally decide to use the Valmont at night and Murad in the morning...and put aside the rest in the drawer.

Yeah, I guess that's what I'll do ... I had been using Prevage, but I'm not sure it really has done anything so I'll put that aside for now and use the JB Antioxident instead. And I wasn't sure how well the Dermalogica Medicated Clearing Gel was working for me, so that will go aside for now in place of the JB Blemish Clearing Serum.

Moonstarr - You have all the JB products that I am interested in. Please share your thought about them after you have a chance to try them out.

I think maybe you're right ... I'm always worried I'm going to over do it. But how do you decide how many is too many? I was using some things on alternate days, but now with the JB stuff, I'm setting aside some of the other stuff to focus on this new stuff for now.

Well so far I've used them 3x (last night and this AM and PM) ... first impressions. Not loving the smell, but it doesn't last long. I really am liking the blemish serum and the antioxidant serum (the serums are packaged in clear glass bottles though ... will that affect the contents inside I wonder? I always thought serums should be packaged in darker bottles to avoid the product deteriorating) ... my skin seemed really smooth this AM. Still too soon to tell though how the long term results will be or if I'll break out from them. The Sheer Moisturiser SPF30 ... I didn't love the thickness of it, it has a stronger smell than the others and it goes on kinda white (but that goes away in a minute). But today wearing it under my makeup, my face never got oily looking and it felt really nice ... I think I'll like this as well. I still really like my Dermalogica Sheer Moisture Tint SPF15 though, so I'll probably change off and on throughout the week with the two. Or maybe use the Dermalogica on the weekend when I don't want to wear foundation too much (since it has such a nice tint to it).

I'll be sure to write a better review on JB though once I've been using the products for a longer time.

I do not manage. I have a debris of products piling up, most of them half-used. I have not the discipline...

The only product I consistently use up are the masques from Valmont.
And Wuta Kamille Handcreme.

Same here... when I love a product, I tend to purchase the whole line.. I've done so with A'kin. And I'm still awaiting my PSF orders...

what to do what to do... I think I'll go with alternating nights on the products that I use Smile

My only staple is Vit C.
CsRx +Firming has not been replaced yet. And also my Rx Tretinoin.

I know that feeling Laughing ! I was quite good for the last year or so, as I decided not to buy any new products till I'd used up the ones I had lying around. Just recently fell off the wagon in a major way though and am now impatiently waiting for my recent orders to be delivered. Here we go again.....

Thanks Moonstarr! I will wait for your reviews.

I have no will power and tend to jump at anything that sound good.

I would like to add that all of YOU contribute to making me order products I want to try Smile then I get to like, then I need to find how to "insert" them in my already complicated routine! Laughing
