Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

Advantages: Luxury, Feels lovely
Disadvantages: Can irritate some skins

...Rightio, before I start Id just like to point out that the cheapest price advertised with this product on ciao is £22. Thats actually higher that the RRP for this product and I know that is it £16 from wowwoman.com with free p&p. Be careful if you buy more than 1 item from this site thiough as any items you buy from Hong Kong over £18 come with an £8 customs charge. **************************** I got my Beauty Flash Balm, or Baume Beaute Eclair as it is also known, from wow woman after seeing it in endless magazines and such for years and years. For some reason I have always been mental about beauty products and since I was about 7 Ive been making a mental list of all the things I want. Whwn I got my first student loan a couple of years ago I embarked on a massive beauty splurge and have spent unspeakable amounts of cash on things...

Review of Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

Balm away your sins!

Advantages: It refreshes
Disadvantages: Rather expensive

...Although I love Dermalogica the reason why I was quite tempted to buy this product is the claim that this balm gives you in saying that it erases the signs of fatigue. I thought it would be quite clever to use it especially the morning after a late night, when my skin looks dull and tired. Clarins claims that this product does the following: - Promotes immediate and long-lasting radiance. - Firms and helps minimise fine lines and wrinkles. - Smoothes and softens skin. - Strengthens and refines the contours of the face; skin regains firmness and suppleness. WHAT IS IT? ********** This face cream is in fact a balm, it is slightly thicker in texture neverthelsess it absorbs very easily and leaves you with a refreshing sensation as if you have used a gel. This product has a creamy colour with a nice and cool smell, very...

From sheep to sleek Label M Relaxing Balm

Advantages: Does the job, lasts a very long time elliminates use of finishing products
Disadvantages: Not very well suited for thin hair as it is a heavy product.

...We always say people always want what they can't have or what they don't have, well this product will solve that issue in the hair department! I think Relaxing balm by Label.M should be on every woman's wish list! for those of you with either overly curly hair, frizzy hair, hair that never goes straight and hair that puffs up at the first sign of moisture in the air. So you have tried straightening, maybe even ironing! big no no by the way! blowdrying, gel, hairspray well STOP right there! I can tell you are wasting your time completely! especially if you are on of those people that the minute you walk out that door all your hard work has gone to waste even if you spent hours of your time trying to get that nice sleek hair its a wasted effort. Trust me I know, as an ex hairdresser I know the trouble people have trying to solve this...

Review of Label M Relaxing Balm

Beauty FlashBalm -AMAZING!

Advantages: Does what it says on the box, easy to use, bottle lasts long
Disadvantages: addictive!expensive!

...I have to say that this product is all it has been bigged up to be. Firms and helps minimise fine lines and wrinkles * Makes a great moisture-boosting mask * Make-up looks exceptionally radiant Is said to be the secret of instant radiance. An ideal "pick-me-up" before an evening out or whenever you want to erase signs of fatigue. There are a few ways to use the product- Before applying make-up Morning or evening, after thoroughly cleansing and toning, apply, without massaging, a very thin layer over the entire face not forgetting the eye contour area. Follow with make-up application. For dry or dehydrated skin, apply a moisturising base before make-up. Alternatively, for an intensive beauty treatment Use 2-3 times a week preferably evenings, apply a thick layer on face and neck. Relax and leave on for 10-15 minutes...

Review of Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

wonder balm

Advantages: Gives skin an instantaneous radiant and healthy glow., Improves skin's texture
Disadvantages: a bit pricey

...Advantages Gives skin an instantaneous radiant and healthy glow., Improves skin's texture, Make-up lasts much longer Disadvantages If used in combination with Clarins' oil-free foundation, the foundation may form fine flakes when applying over balm. As female consumers, we are frequently bombarded with advertisements relating to beauty products, professing dramatic and immediate results. It is aptly named beauty FLASH balm, as results are instantaneous. Upon application, the skin has a marked radiance. I have often found that I do not even have to apply liquid foundation, as one's skin texture is markedly improved. Fantastic for those of us who love a natural look! Its main advantages include:- Gives skin a radiant, healthy glow; Firms skin texture; Make-up lasts longer; Improves elasticity of skin and Reduces lines...

Beautiful Body Balm

Advantages: Smells wonderful and leaves skin soft
Disadvantages: As with all Clarins products the cost is the downside!

...I am a big fan of Clarins products; they are gentle on my skin, smell fantastic and are very luxurious. The only downside I think is the cost. I try to buy them when my nearest department store is having a special offer or money off. Often the offer is that when you buy two products you get two "discovery sizes" free. Discovery sized products are smaller than the actual products but larger than the little mini samples they sometimes give you. The review I am writing now is based on a discovery size of the "Relaxing Body Balm" which is a 100ml bottle. This bottle is large enough to last a long time and give you a good idea whether you would want to buy the full sized product. What is it? ---------------- The product is a relaxing body balm and is part of the Aroma-Care Clarins products. It is a thick white cream which is...

Review of Clarins Relaxing Body Balm

Tiger Balm

Advantages: A superb balm for aches and pains
Disadvantages: its a bit smelly!!

...Tiger Balm was the brainchild of a Chinese Herbalist many years ago. The balm was originally formulated for the Chinese Emperors to use. After the herbalists death one of his sons travelled the East accompanied by a tiger (A symbol of strength and vitality in the East) selling the balm wherever he could. In the 1920`s his two sons established a company base in Singapore to manufacture the Tiger Balm and the product is widely used throughout the world nowadays. Tiger Balm is used for the relief of muscular aches and pains, I find it especially useful after a hard days gardening. The balm can be bought in two strengths, the Red Balm which is extra strong and the White Balm which is regular strength, you can also buy a Tiger Liniment oil to use for massage purposes. The balm contains camphor which has a really pungent smell, many...

Review of Tiger Balm

Carmex Lip Balm

Advantages: heals sore lips
Disadvantages: not available in Czech rep. so I have to import

...Carmex Lip Balm I have started to use Carmex lipbalm on a friend's recommendation and I was surprised to see and feel how well it worked! I've always suffered of dried and cracky lips particularly in winter and even if I always was equipped with lip balms and spent quite some money on it as I preferred stuff like Labello, it never really had a long-term effect. Neutrogena wasn't all bad either, but I have to say Carmex was where the revolution in lip care has come. Package Carmex comes in a form of a lipstick, a little jar and a squeezable tube. The jars were introduced already back in 1937! All containers are in red+yellow and black which remind me of beeswax somehow. It gives impression of sth natural and good for your health. Carmex original was lately accompanied by strawberry and cherry version - those I didn...

Disadvantages: I dont think there is any.

...In my opinion im going to try to tell you every thing you need to know about this product so you can decide if you want to buy it. Ill try and cover all the points. This face cream/balm really does do so much good for your skin. It puts back much needed moisture into your skin and wont make your skin oily - even if it is oily (like mine)------------------------------------------------------------------ It fills in small lines and makes your skin look really raidient,glowing and healthy. It really revitalises your skin. Its great as a make-up base too, and leaves your skin looking perfect and feeling soft all day long. Your skin absorbs it really well and it dosnt take long at all. It comes in a pretty little tube and you get quite a lot. It seems to last a long time too,as a little seems to go a long way. I find if i put it...
