Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

I've tried it its pretty nice but I like the Night Time Repair better which is also a serum. You should ask for a sample before committing to a full size.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

Rosehip Oil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It does all the things this serum claims to do.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

^Does it lighten the skin? Rose oil isnt it too expencive? Where do u get that in the uk?

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder’s Idealist even skintone illuminator?

It will even skin tone and face blemishes and discolouration. I’ve been using it since March and two people I met up with after not seeing them for ages both commented on how good my skin was looking. I also recommended it to a GS member who had chloasma during pregnancy and it worked for her too.

I buy this one: http://www.naturallythinking.com/products/Rosehip-Carrier-Oil-%2d-Special-Offer-Cold-Pressed.html

I also bought glass bottles with dropper lids, which I transfer it into. Makes it easier to use.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

The link doesnt work..lemme know please as i wana look into it. i dont like having chemicals on my face i rather wear natural stuff but they take huge time to work..so thought id try estee lauder one!

^i agree. RHO is quite good without the extra bucks. U just need two, three drops for ur skin. I don't think in lightens the skin, but u won't have any pigmentation problem after using it.

Op if u wanted to use Estes lauder, try advance night repair first. Gr8 serum but very expensive

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

It's working for me when I click it :/
Google "naturally thinking rosehip oil"

It doesn't take that long to notice a difference. I had some really bad pigmentation on my body and it cleared it up in few weeks of using the oil. I use it daily on my face.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

^ Agree, Its a great serum.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

When I met you, your skin was glowing and looked flawless so I guess it must be the oil? I'm gonna buy one too.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

Pretty much! I use verrrry litle foundation.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

I agree rosehip oil is fantastic, so are papaya products.

Ive noticed a vast difference in my skin after using papaya soap its amazing!

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

Which one do you use? Dont tell me Likas papaya soap, as it didnt do anything apart from drying my skin horribly:(

Stoppit,Do i have to get essential rosehip oil or carrier oil? i thought it would be expencive but gladly it isnt! i heard rose stuffs are expencive...?!

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

No not likas, i order a diana stadler one from ebay.

I have been using papaya soap day and night, with enzymion moisturiser from lush ( also papaya based) for 4 months and honesty my skin have never been more clearer or glowing and also it has bought out the 'fairness' in my skin even though im sanwali ( same as you i think ) i wouldnt say im like gori now but i dnno its like my inner radiant glow has come out!

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

Carrier Oil. You can copy and paste this link if the other isn't working:

www. naturallythinking.com/products/Rosehip-Carrier-Oil---Special-Offer-Cold-Pressed.html
remove the space after the www.

Rosehip and Rose are not the same things. The Rose Absolute which comes from roses is for aromatherapy and is £9 for 2ml, so it is expensive!

I would also recommend witch hazel hydrolat to use in conjunction.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

oh and about rosehip i use it on my body for scars and pigmentation and it works well, i dont use it on my face as im scared of acne from it but i trust it must do a great job!

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

I used to use enzymion years and years ago. I use Olay Regnerist Rehydrating Lotion for the last 4 years though.

I recently bought the Marine Collagen Moisturiser from this site as well (been slowly trying out their products) and I'm really liking it.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

It won't cause acne. In fact it will probably help it. My sister has active acne and she's been using it and her face is looking much better.

You can either use it at night and rub a few drops on your face directly. I use it in the morning before moisturising. I first spritz my face with witch hazel (natural astringent) to tone. Then I spray some witch hazel on a cotton pad to dampen it. Drop a drop of rosehip on this and apply to my face. Repeat with a second drop if I need more. The witch hazel stops it from being too oily and by the time you have moisturised, you shouldn't feel/look any oilier than if you didn't use it.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

Gotta get me some RHO.

Re: Has anyone tried Estee lauder's Idealist even skintone illuminator?

Stoppit,

what are you using at night to moisturize, thanks.
