Borba Fiber Knit Reviews

Ahh...another review. A few months ago I posted about some beauty deals that I had found at TJ Maxx. Two of those products were from Borba: Fiber Knit Night Repair Emulsion and Fiber Knit Emulsion SPF 15. I had never tried either of these products and at only $10 I figured this was the perfect time to try it. I now know why it is I have never tried these products before.

Let me just tell you, both of these products stunk to high heaven. When I first applied the Repair Emulsion I thought I was going to throw up. The next day when I applied the SPF 15 I was shocked to find that it stunk even worse than the other product. Unfortunately, because of the nasty smell factor, I could not continue to use either one of these products. I have, however, been able to use the Night Repair Emulsion as a foot cream. It has made my feet feel really smooth and nice. The SPF 15, however, still has a highly potent odor even when that far away from my nose so I just shucked that one into the trash.

I will disclaim this post by also telling everyone that I have an extremely high powered sense of smell. It's absolute crazyness. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I pick up on the faintest of scents. There are actually things that I will not let people eat around me because the smell is so strong to me that it makes me sick. So, if you're lucky enough to have a normal sense of smell then maybe you will be able to use these products. If anyone has, feel free to post in the comments and share your thoughts. I feel bad that I couldn't use them enough on my face to give a review.

Purity Made Simple High Foaming Daily Cleanser

Have you guys heard about Philosophy's newest product??? I'm so excited to say that they have created a foam version of Purity Made Simple! Purity is my staple facial cleanser. I absolutely love it. It is so gentle that I can rub it on my eyes to take my make-up off and there is no irritation. My skin is clear and soft. I am even more in love now that they've made it in foam form. I absolutely love foam products. The hand soaps in my bathrooms are the foaming ones from Bath and Body Works. They are so light and airy and just feel really clean, which is really what you want in a facial cleanser. Of course Philosophy must have known that I just bought a mother sized 32 oz. bottle of the old fashioned Purity and just wanted to tease me with the new release since I will definately have to use up what I have before I buy anything new. This new product is currently available at Sephora and retails for $21.50 for a 6 oz. bottle and $34.50 for a 12 oz. bottle.
