I'm guessing it thins the moisturizer and allows you to cover more skin with less product.

The toner preps the skin to absorb the moisturizer. If you put moisturizer on skin that isn't damp, it just kind of sits there, you could put on twice as much and it just doesn't feel like it's sinking in. Try it both ways, you'll feel the difference. So basically, wash the skin, spritz on the toner, pat your face a few times, and while the skin is still a little bit damp and dewy, apply the moisturizer. You'll just need a few beads and it'll soak right in. kanding, your container of Gorgeous should last more than 6 months with toner.

For what it's worth, I spray on the toner and don't pat it off. Then, apply moisturizer immediately afterwards (to my still wet face). And, yes, a little bit of Gorgeous goes a long way. I've had my pot for a couple of months now and I've barely made a dent in it. I am using a tiny bit more now that it's cold out and my skin is dryer, but I still forecast that this one pot will last a year or longer. I am currently using Gorgeous at night and Vanishing Cream during the day. I plan to get my 12-year old goddaughter a LUSH gift box for xmas. I am SO excited to introduce her to the world of luxury bath products.

I just can't thank all of you enough for turning me on to Lush, which I had never heard of until I started lurking here about a year ago, and special thanks for whoever raved about the deodorant creme - it rocks! I must say, though, that a couple of months ago I bought the shampoo bar that smells like a campfire, and it stunk up my whole house. I hid it in a drawer before finally throwing it out, and that drawer still smells when I open it. Mulva, your daughter is going to be so delighted! Sure beats the Jean Nate bath set I got when I was 12, which was pretty much all that was around back then. Well, that and Youth Dew by Estee Lauder.

Now that's a blast from the past! Jean Naté! My grandmother loved that stuff. Or at least we think she did because we gave her tons of that stuff in the early 70s.

Love's Baby Soft was my first fragrance. Remember when roll-on fragrances were all the rage?

It smells like a 5-year old unclean ashtray stuffed with cigar butts.

Ooh, cigar butts. Maybe that's why it made my eyes water. Too bad, because it made my hair look great!
I loved Love's Baby Soft! If I try really hard, I can still smell it.

Where do you guys store the massage bars? The heat is all fubar'ed in my apartment, and it is about 636,993 degrees in here right now, so mine was already half melting, then when I actually used it on my partner's 592,903 degree body last night? Mess. Wiccy Magic Muscle Mess all over me, him, the bed, the floor. I put the rest of them in the fridge for now. I have to say though, that Wiccy bar is a dream, if you can figure out what to do with the beans.

I have to say though, that Wiccy bar is a dream, if you can figure out what to do with the beans. If it's hot in my apartment then I put them in the refrigerator, just in case. When you need to use one, set it out for a little while first. Also, if none of you have tried it, the Spice Curls soap is amazing. It smells like pie and it has pieces in it that make it exfoliating. Amazing. It may be my favorite soap. Also, the shampoo bar that smells like a fire, is fantastic for dandruff. You wash once with it, and once with another shampoo, or use a very scented conditioner to mask the smell. It works great, but it smells terrible.
