Petunia Skincare 1.0mm Derma Roller - Review

 

Today's review is Petunia Skincare's 1.0mm Derma roller.

  This derma roller has 540 stainless steel needles, a sturdy plastic handle, and a plastic case. Derma rollers can provide a lot of benefits including:

• No permanent damage to your skin
• Short healing time
• Stimulates collagen production
• Improves your skin's absorbancy of skin care products
• Reduces cellulite, fine lines, and wrinkles
• Helps improve the appearance of scars
• Promotes pore reduction
• Gives you visibly tighter, smoother skin

  First, let me just say that this was really scary for me. I'm totally up for trying new things.... but the thought of piercing my skin with a roller full of needles was terrifying.I had mental images of blood, puncture wounds, and pain. After many false starts, I finally worked up the courage to use it.

  I was impressed by how easy it was to use. It didn't really hurt, just a little stinging during and after, and I didn't bleed (yay!). Since I am new to derma rollers, I'm so grateful that Petunia Skincare has so much information on their packaging. Directions for cleaning, rolling, and other tips are right on the box so you don't have to go searching for more information anywhere else.

  I don't have any other experience to compare with, but I think Petunia Skincare's packaging is really suitable for a derma roller.The derma roller itself has its own hard plastic case that the roller fits perfectly in. The case comes in a sealed plastic and foil bag, and then it is boxed. It makes me feel like there's less of a chance of germs getting all over the roller during shipping.

  The roller feels good in your hand. It sits comfortably in your palm and doesn't feel awkward when you roll. It looks and feels like it is made out of high quality materials that will last a long time. I would have liked to have a rubber grip of some sort on the handle, but it isn't slippery so I really can't complain. Even the needles look high quality. The whole roller has a sterile, professional look and feel to it.

  I've been using this roller for less than a month, but I have definitely seen some results so far. My pores look a little smaller and my skin looks tighter. I have also noticed that my skin really absorbs lotions and serums better, which seems to make them more effective. I have no doubts that I will see more results using this dermal roller long term. Honestly, I'm seeing more results with this roller for less money than all the serums and lotions I've tried. I absolutely love that it can be used on your face or on your body because you get so many benefits in so many different locations from one product. I think that if you're looking for more bang for your buck, this is for you.

Body Merry Cellulite Cream Review

Today I'm reviewing a Cellulite Cream from Body Merry.






This cellulite cream has a very definite gel-cream texture. I honestly am not fond of the appearance or smell of this. I imagine that if I took jello and mixed it with pudding it would look very much like this cellulite cream. Not really a deal breaker or even a serious negative, but it isn't what I would ever imagine a cream would look like. I was expecting more of a creamy texture... like a thick lotion. It smells like menthol and has a distinct "medicine" smell. Its not especially unpleasant, but it definitely doesn't smell good. The smell does linger in the air for a little while after applying, but (thankfully) the scent doesn't seem to stay strong on my skin.

Once you get past the appearance and smell, this product is actually really great. It absorbs quickly like a gel, and doesn't leave you feeling sticky or greasy/oily. There is a slight cooling and tingling feeling when you're applying it. Its almost refreshing and invigorating.

I've been using this for about 2 weeks now and while I can't say that I've noticed a reduction in cellulite, my skin is much smoother and firmer. Even if I never notice a reduction in cellulite, this firms and moisturizes better and faster than most skin firming creams and lotions I've tried, and at a lower price than many other brands. I love my skin texture when I use this and I will continue using it just to have that texture. My skin feels soft, smooth, and firm. It makes me feel so soft and feminine, even my husband has noticed!
To sum it up: You'll notice a huge improvement in your skin, even after the first time you apply it, I'm just not sure you'll notice any change in cellulite.

If you're interested in giving it a try, you can find it on Amazon.

Naturalico Cellulite Cream Review

Today I'm going to do a review on Naturalico Cellulite Cream.

There are some pros and cons to this product. 

Upon opening, you'll notice that the cream is more of a gel-cream and it is a bit runny, which is unexpected for the type of packaging in my opinion. The upside to this is that under the lid is an additional piece with a tab that both keeps it from leaking or spilling and is really easy to remove. 

The smell is quite strong in the container, but it isn't as strong on the skin. I wouldn't really consider it unpleasant, but it isn't a scent that I would wear as a perfume either. It reminds me of a menthol-citrus blend. 

 The product itself is rather pleasant.
There is a slight cooling and tingling feeling when you're applying it. Its a little refreshing,
and I really like that the fragrance isn't as overpowering once it is blended into the skin. 

I can't really say that I noticed any change in cellulite, but I will say that this product makes your skin feel firm and incredibly moisturized. Even without any cellulite reduction, it is well worth the money for the incredible skin texture it leaves you with. I've tried many other lotions and creams, but I have to say that I love the way this makes my skin feel.

If you want to give this a try, its totally worth it for the silky smooth, firm, and hydrated skin it gives you.
You can find it on Amazon
