What product do you use with devastating results that may not be so well known to the general public?

I use those Korean scrubby cloths for super smooth skin, and top it off with the semi-tacky Skintimate after shave gel. That shit rocks, y'all. Now, neither of these products are like, super secret, but the combination, well, now you all know something valuable.

Also, needle nosed tweezers for pulling out blackheads. Crazy, but it works in my case, and best of all, no pinchy red marks from squeezing.

After I shower, I rub baby oil into my skin while it's still a little damp. The oil works with the water to lock in moisture longer than regular lotions.

I'm a big fan of substituting Cetaphil moisturizing cream for shaving cream. Lubricates and moisturizes but doesn't visually impede.

Anyone ever use those pore-sucker things?:

I'm afraid of buying one because, if it works well, I might shut myself up at home and vacuum my pores all day long.

from reading the two reviews they have on the site, it seems this thing doesn't work that well. guess it's back to the old fashioned biore pore strips.

are you serious?
i want me one of those.

i use this korean product called charmzone
control massage cream. you leave it on your face
for a few minutes then massage it
and you can feel all the dead skin coming off.
when my face gets super dry i'll do that.
it's really popular in korea but i wish they would
market that in the US. it's a godsend for people
with dry, flaky skin.

Ooh, I want to try that vitamin E thing.

What does rubbing strawberries on your teeth do?

Strawberries are supposed to be good for cleaning teeth. Removing stains.

Warm milk is supposed to be good for soaking feet for softer skin. I haven't tried that, though.

How do you do that? Halve them and then rub the meat of the half on your teeth like a toothbrush?

Wouldn't eating them produce the same or better result?

Asprin mask.. get a bottle of generic, uncoated asprin.. I got a 100 count one at a dollar store..for..a dollar

take about 5 pills, drop enough water to make a paste.. apply, let dry and wash off..scrubbing as you rinse.

asprin = salicylic acid, the active ingredient in many many acne/pore minimizing/ect washes/lotions/cleaners..

Of course, I think this is a bad idea if you are allergic to asprin.. I'm not sure if Asprin in stomach vs. Asprin on face will work,..but I wouldn't try it if you are allergic.

Anybody know another cheap method or perhaps a cream of some sort that kills pimples?
