I figure you must be our resident IE expert. I received a sample of the 2 MM. When I used it yesterday, I couldn't get it to ball up. I want to try it again in a day or so. Can you talk me through it?
(PS I did see the video online.) |

I'm not Bosoxy, but maybe I can help you. I had the same problem when I got my sample and tried it for the first time. Yesterday, i decided to give it a try again, and it did ball up. So, from my experience: you have to apply it on a dry skin, and the layer should be thin. Wait 1-2 min and you'll feel the texture change; it'll start to liquefy. You massage it in circular motions, and it'll ball up.
HTH. |

Thanks to you both. I tried it again this morning and got maybe a tiny bit of balling up. I'm going to try a thinner layer next time. |

I think you really have to experiment. I have gotten it to ball up really good 1 time, and the other few times it will only ball up on a few spots. The 1 time I got it to work right, I used a VERY thin layer spread all over the face quickly (make sure the skin is thoroughly dry), and then waited 1-2 minutes and start rubbing. I find it tricky thought to get the right amount of the product for it to work properly. Good luck. |

Hi!
It sounds like you have the basic idea of it.
If you use the souffle or any type of glycolic or AHA, try using the 2mm the day after.
Some people can use the 2mm daily and get balling up as they have a lot of skin cell turnover... and others may only use it twice a week.
If you get very little balling up but the product is liquifying, then you could stand to wait another day in between product use.
Once you finished using it and rinsed it off did you see the glow?
I totally LOVE that glow!!!
Ohhhh... and there is a demo of the product on the web site:

Click on the picture of the two women (Shelly and another female) and a video should pop up for you.
I hope that I helped!

Thanks!
The nice thing is, even without much balling up, I did get the glow, and my skin stayed nice and soft for a couple of days after I used in on Wednesday.
I think I'm gonna wait a few days and let my skin get really gross and skanky and then try it again, this time with a thinner layer.
By the way, how do you know when to stop rubbing? |

I just received some more in the mail yesterday... woo hoo! Cannot be without this stuff!
Take care.

Hee hee! Gross and skanky! I know EXACTLY what you mean, unfortunately! |

I got balling up! I got balling up!
Usually when something is all balled-up, that is NOT a good thing. But this is a very, very good thing.
I checked my skin this morning, and yes, it was quite gross and skanky, so I decided the time was right.
This time I put on a somewhat thinner layer than before but didn't let it sit as long so that it wouldn't soak in. And voila, balling up! And my skin looks very nice. So thrilled.
Just wanted to let you know. |

Woo hoo!!!!
I am thrilled for you!!!
My son was using his 2mm this morning and I thought of you and was hoping that you would get your desired results this time... So glad that you did!
Take care.
