Do you think that MK skin care really made a difference for you?  For me personally, it did... because pre-MK I had NO skin care routine at all!! 

What about the anti-aging/age-fighting stuff?  Do I need it?  Now that I'm going NON-MK in skin care... what do I really need to spend my $$ on? 

Do we reallly need the lip primer, eye creams, blah, blah, blah???

 

Absolutely. The Miracle Set took years off my face. No one believes my age.
I don't sell anymore, but I remained signed up with MKC so I can get fresh product at a discount.

Funny, I discovered the products on Ebay. After purchasing stale product a few times, I signed up as a consultant to ensure receiving fresh product at the best discount. 

Tried selling for six months, but it's not for me.

As long as this product stays good, I'll use it. Saves me the hassle of the hit or miss when trying other cosmetic lines.

I started with the basic, it was fine.  Then TW came out, it was too much for my oily skin, made me break out.  Then the oily skin TW came out.  It was fine, until they changed it.  Then it sucked again.  Tried the V stuff for teenagers, it was ok.  But the smell was a bit much.

I no longer use anything MK.  But I do think the basic #3 cleanser is good.  All the sunscreens are lacking UVA protection, so that takes out half the moisturizers.  The rest either are too heavy for me or contain irritating ingredients that no one needs on their skin.  I think all the toners contain alcohol, so they are too irritating also. 

I loove the oil control lotion and the acne treatment gel but the rest of the stuff doesn't agree with me.  Needless to say I am headed back to the dermatologist again this week.  The 1/2 price products listed above will be the only thing I miss about ole MK!

I love the TW face wash for oil skin.  I'm using it until I run out but haven't been looking for something to replace it.  I like the Aveeno face/scrubs cloths....  that's about it...everything else doesn't do it for me. 

Yes, the skin care has worked for me.  I have (or had) adult acne and Proactive and MK are the ONLY

FemIntell,
I agree with you about the product, I have a couple of customers who got no relief from any other line or people (dermatologists), but MK worked for them.  I have heard some incredible stories from my own customers.  Of course, I have had some with bad reactions, too.  Just par for the course, I guess.

UYC - the voice of reason. 

I don't use MK because I can't stand to look at it, and I won't willingly support a company that's dedicated to destroying women's lives.

That said, I don't think there is particularly anything wrong with the products, but they're not anything you can't get anywhere else for much less. That's the point in an MLM. Further study of MLM will show you that the products are irrelevant - made just nice enough so they have the appearance of saleability and the claims are overrated by far about product performance, and they are overpriced. All hallmarks of any MLM. Before I get off on another "why MLM is evil" tangent...

While in MK for 5 years, I only used MK stuff, like a good little kaybot. It worked fine until I got pregnant. Crazy skin ensued and no combination of MK would work. I secretly purchased Proactiv, which I've been using every since (though I'm out of the proactiv closet now  ). It can be drying, so I make sure I have a good moisturizer.

I threw out everything I had of MK except 2 or 3 lipsticks and an eyeliner. It's like going to the candy store - Target, Wal-Mart, Walgreens... ahhh... the colors, the selection! I could go wild. So far, I like Aveeno's stuff quite a bit - especially the positively radiant moisturizer, and I just got a new night cream from them. Oil of Olay sensitive skin is good, too.

Also, and you can check this out with dermatologists, anti-aging stuff is usually bunk. Alpha-hydroxy acids are the only thing that will "anti-age" you as they essentially peel off the top layer of skin. Other stuff, won't do anything to get rid of wrinkles or any other age-related damage to skin. Sunscreen is all that will prevent sun effects of aging (which are most of what ages your skin) - and sun damage takes 30 years to accumulate and present damage, so even if you protect now, you can still wake up and look old one day because you didn't protect your skin 30 years beforehand. Dermatologic procedures can help - like peels and whatnot.

Also, check out www.consumerreports.org. They have done stories on anti-aging products and rated them, basically exposing what I just said - it's all bunk to get you to pay a fortune.

And ditto everything UYC said.
