I think I'm going to skip anything with acids. I've been very happy with my skin going no acids and I'm going to keep at it.

Great deal, Blues. I know you will keep us posted on your results!

I hear ya on the acids. I went ahead and ordered the Accent and Fizzy masks along with the Tru-skin. Oh and the HotDot too, although now that I know that cinnamon oil is a phenol, I'm a bit leery of using it. The thought of putting cinnamon oil on an inflamed blemish makes me a bit squeamish! Yowza! Hopefully, the petroleum in it will prevent any sizzling! Laughing

When the goods show up....You're on deck for a review!!!!!

Great job Blues - Can't wait to hear your report on the Beautylash.

and Rileygirl's too on Fanie and BeautyLash... Razz

Hellooo...Havana, you're owing us one on the marini lash. Get to it.

Blues, I did email Jennifer from 21st Century (my 302 supplier) asking about using the Accent Masque with 302. I didn't mention the Masque One since there aren't any ingredients in that masque that aren't in the Accent Masque. I'll let you know what she says.

HO, HO, Ho, Ho,.......... Holy Moly, It burns!!!

I mixed some Cinnamon powder w/aloe ver gel + Avene Thermal Spring Water last night to see if Cinnamon Oil was the one in Unveil gave me the BURNNING. I use aloe ver gel & Spring Water with other masks all the time, so I know I'm ok w/those 2.

I put the paste on my forehead first, nothing, so I was thinking "Hmmmmmmn, maybe it's not cinnamon oil or cinnamon powder is different from cinnamon oil. Then, I put some on my nose. OMG, OMG, OMG, Every where with this paste burned. I rushed washing everything off my face. My forehead was so REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED. Only 15 seconds with this Cinnamon powder paste.

I guess my face is not rubber tough after all. Does this mean, everytime I use Unveil I have to experience this BURNNING? What am I supposed to do?? Crying or Very sad

MAC - I didn't have that level of burning with the Unveil. It was less than the pumpkin masque. I'll be curious to see what others have to say who try it out.
Face still feels soft and smoother today - got an email less than an hour ago from said hunky boyfriend who wrote and told me I look positively radiant.

I am flexing everyday too and massaging so that is part of the deal I think. Love that flex effect.

Ok, I could not stand it anymore. I used the Unveil tonight. I used this alone, no masque on top as I was afraid of the burning. Well, I must have elephant skin, as this did not burn me at all. I felt it "tingle" only and that was just briefly and very mild. I left the Unveil on for 10 minutes, per instructions. It did start to itch as it dried around my nose, but otherwise I had no problems.

I think it has the consistency of snot (!) or thin vaseline to be more PC. It has a definite smell to it. I could detect a little of the cinnamon, but it smelled more like medicine to me.

It took a while to rinse off, as it just kept feeling slimy, but I did get it all rinsed off. Afterwards my skin is nice and soft, but no miracles. I have a nice little glow to my skin, but nothing that I wouldn't get from a different type of "peel". I don't have any pore issues so I can't comment on the size of pores being diminished.

On Friday, I will use the Unveil again and this time I will use the mask over it to see where my "fountain of youth" is!! Very Happy

I first heard about Fanie a few years ago at a convention. The people working the booth did not look professional so I did not give them another thought. However, you all have me curious about some of the masks.

I had my doubts about it being so cutting edge with such amazing ingredients. They are obviously not adverse to using parabens and petroleum and it does not seem to be so pure and different compared to lines like Osmosis and PSJ. They would not use these ingredients would they? I also have problems when they won't list the ingredients - all of them. However, they are inexpensive and JE seems to love the stuff so I am going to give it a try too. I am always open minded, which is what gets me into trouble with the spending.

My goodies arrived this morning so I'll be trying them out later. I haven't heard back from Jennifer yet if the masks are compatible with my beloved 302 but I don't think there will be any problems, at least I hope not. I didn't get the Unveil peel-type product, just the two firming masks and the Liquid Sponge for congested pores. I'll report back with my initial impression later. JoElla's note said to start with the Accent so that's what I'll try today.

Can't wait to hear, MWalnut. Particularly since you've been on the 302 program.

I've completed my first go with the Accent Masque.

I mixed it with the TruSkin and applied a generous layer to my face. As is dried it became hard and kind of drew up - my skin looked crumpled and the way it dried so tight around my lips made them pucker. It was quite uncomfortable but I kept it on for 30 minutes. After that I softened it with warm water and kept rinsing until my face was clean.

Results: My skin is somewhat softer and smoother but nothing earth-shattering at this point. I can tell my pores are a bit tighter but I think this is due to some after-mask dryness I'm experiencing (I'm usually somewhere between normal and oily). I guess I'm kind of on the fence about this one. I'll keep an eye on things and if I decide I either love it or find it a waste of money I'll let you guys know.

I just received the Accent Masque and will try it tonight.

I used Unveil + Fizzy + TruSkin again last night. Same good result Very Happy

AND same bad burning. Mad

. Burning lasted about 3 min. My husband tried it too. He only had some sting feeling, not much. 10 min after he put on the Fizzy+TruSkin he looked at the mirror and said "Woo, I looked 15 years younger, skin so tight and no wrinkles." (This was due to mask drid up and pulled the skin, so ladies, no miracle.) After he washed his face I asked him "Do you see a glow on your face?" He said "NO!!!, Put the mask back, I like it on better." Rolling Eyes

I'll try to use Unveil and Fizzy+TruSkin seperately to see what result will I get.

Oh darn, this is one of the masks that I ordered but this sounds just so-so. I will wait anxiously to hear more reviews as you continue to use this.

I am curious to hear what you have to say about the Liquid Sponge. I asked JoElla about the ingredients that are in it (Ingredients: Water, Cal O, chloroxenol) and she said the chloroxenol (which is actually a typo on her site, should be chloroxylenol) is an antibacterial agent that is present in the water but not necessarily present in the finished product. She said that state law required the company to list all components/agents used to kill bacteria in the water used in products. When I asked her what Cal O is, she said she didn't know. Shock

I couldn't find anything on Cal O when I googled so... basically it is water and an unknown ingredient. Laughing

Mmmmm...
