Do you use their facial products? Their modern friction stuff is really good... I haven't been using as much of their skincare line because we just got a blue mercury in the mall downstairs from where I work... I'm hooked on Darphin products now!

I thought I would try to start a new thread on this:

Yes, I use the modern friction also and it is really nice. I Love the peace of mind, it does wonders to help me relax before bedtime...
I LOVE the face creams. I use to use Clinique until I found these products now I use them twice a day: Plantidote Mega mushroom face cream and A Perfect World white tea skin guardian. I can see such a difference in my face especially living in the desert.


I have those cracked dry heels that everyone hates but with the Sole Searcher scrub weekly that is now not a problem. I use the Reinventing the Heel every night.... OMG! The Origins Lip balm is wonderful too.

The Lavender and vanilla oil and bath milk is so calming too...... think I will get a glass of wine, light some candles and go for a relaxing bath.....

I have never heard of Darphin... what do you like of their product line?

no way.. you got rid of the cracked heels? i keep trying and it just doesn't work with this heat/dryness...how does it work? is it just a scrub or do you have to scrub for half an hour or something?

I do soak my feet for 5-10 min or so...then I use the scrub with a little foot scrubber from Beauty Brands, the yuck rolls off.....TMI (sorry) then use the cream..... awesome!

hmmmm that could save me $50 a month if i don't have to go get a pedicure. i hate those stupid cracks...they make feet look so ugly.

Not to mention painful..... $19.50 for each/ lasts several months. Foot scrubber from Beauty Brands ~ 7.00. ALL well worth the money

Ahh, I love the plantidote/mega mushroom stuff. THey also have great eye make-up remover pads. I've probably bought all of their products at one point or another. I bet the white tea guardian is great when you're out in that dry air...

Unfortunately I have bizarre skin... it's oily but VERY sensitive, so it's hard for me to tame the breakouts... that's why I love the Darphin products... they have a corrective line that has worked well for me. I almost fainted when I saw how much it cost, but it's done such wonders for my skin that I can't live without it!! It's their purifying balm and it mostly just has essential oils... all of their products have aromatic qualities and they just feel nice on your skin.

I'll have to try that sole searcher scrub! My feet are disgusting, I'll try anything, haha!! Ooh, you've inspired me... I think that tomorrow I'll have a glass of wine and treat my footsies to a little pampering!

I'll have to look for that for my daughter, she has the same type of skin....

MMMM, I love Origins. I swear i drop at least $50/month there. ALL of my skin care products come from there. I swear I have gotten rid of my laugh lines and redness in my face after using their products for a year. DH has a 5 O'clock shadow about 10 minutes after he shaves and he used the Firefighter aftershave stuff and says it's helped him a lot.

I'm not a fan of the ginger line, but I sure do love the mint one1

I went intomy first Origins store ever just weeks ago and can find myself falling in love with there products though I havent bought anything yet. Yum to the whole line of chocolate anything...

I just wanted to make a comment about the dry cracked heels... mine are terrible and if only I did something about it they would probably heal but I never remember to even put lotion on. Brutal. Well I started last week only because I am due to give bith in 2 weeks and mentioned to my mother-in-law, an anesthesiologist, that I needed a pedicure cause I can hardly reach my toes and with my feet in the stirups at least my toes will look nice. I mentioned to her that my heels were cracked and she said, "You better take care of that... they'll talk about you!" (Meaning the hospital staff!) Brutal, but funny.
