Prometheus Cosmetics-Great Things DO Come In Small Packages!

I waited in anticipation for the package in the mail. When it arrived, I quickly opened the top of the envelope to study the cosmetic treasures inside-a day cream, night cream, an eye cream and a lip plumper. My next action was to try them on and experience trial results. This particular trial lasted for five days.

My list of trial criteria was tough but fair.

(1) How do the facial creams texture the skin after application?

After applying the *Radiant Glow Anti-Oxidant Day Moisturizer (www.prometheuscosmetics.com), I immediately saw and felt a visible change in my skin's texture. To the touch, my skin was transformed to a smooth texture. Application areas: Face, neck, decollete, back of hands. There was no product peeling or set separation after application.

*Rest And Repair Anti-Oxidant Night Cream (www.prometheuscosmetics.com) was applied to the face, neck, decollete and back of the hands before entering the land of Nod. Immediately, my skin was transformed to a nice balmy texture. The product worked quickly into the skin and delivered a nice result the first night and for the remaining four days of the trial. There was no product peeling or set separation after application.

*Wide Awake Anti-Oxidant Eye Cream (www.prometheuscosmetics.com) was applied at morning and night and at times during the day. Each application delivered a very smooth texture to the skin around the eye area. (This area encompasses under, around, above the brow, the skin surrounding the outer corner of the eye, bridge of the nose, area where brows meet at the top of nose) Since I enjoy a balmy to firm result, this worked well for my needs. There was no product peeling or set separation after application.

*Kissable Lip Plumper (www.prometheuscosmetics.com) has fast become my new favorite lip treatment and look finisher. This product will smooth the lips with it's spicy secret formula. It lives up to it's name!

***I have a small undesireable bump on my forehead that reduced in size by 75% after using the day and night creams-first application. My son applied the day cream and 50% of the "pickles" on his face cleared up in less than 12 hours.
***The area around my eyes contoured nicely after two applications of the eye cream. After seven days, the results are improving as there is absolutley no puffiness.

***THIS JUST IN...My mum who recently turned 60, applied three Prometheus products this morning and is permanently hooked on the line. She immediately saw results with the day cream, eye cream and lip plumper. Her lips are very thin by nature. Not any more. Thank you Prometheus for creating a line of products that produces results for all age groups! 3/9/2009.

(2) What kind of short and long term results will I notice after application?

Radiant Glow Anti-Oxidant Day Moisturizer: Immediate hydration, slight tingly sensation that nourishes the skin, great fragrance, all day moisture, smooth texture.

Rest And Repair Anti-Oxidant Night Cream: Great hydration-short and long term, balmy to smooth skin texture, light and fresh fragrance.

Wide Awake Eye Cream: Great hydration-short and long term. I like to refresh during the day-it's a personal preference, smooth and balmy texture. Reduction in puffiness-always a good thing!

Kissable Lip Plumper: Long term plump action. This product delivers all day and all night. A little git goes a long way.

(3) Will any product fragrances ignite an allergic reaction?

ABSOLUTELY NOT!

(4) Will any ingredients ignite an allergic reaction?

After a five day intense personal trial, no allergic reactions. After sharing the line with others with different skin conditions, NOT AT ALL!

(5) Will lip products pass the three drink test?

Yes! And the four and five drink test too!

(6) Will lip products live up to their namesake?

Kissable Lip Plumper: Without a doubt! This product is a spicy lip glass that keeps lips plump all day and all night.

(7) Will others notice a visible change in my appearance after use?

Yes. Others noticed my flawless foundation application after layering with the Radiant Glow Anti-Oxidant Day Cream, (www.prometheuscosmetics.com).

Kissable Lip Plumper commands immediate attention with it's high glossy finish and spicy ingredients.

(8) Will lip products protect the lips and for how long?

Kissable Lip Plumper: All day with one touch up application in extreme weather conditions.

(9) Will eye products provide moisture?

Yes! Two applications are recommended-one at night and one at the beginning of your day.

(10) Will eye products deliver desired results?

My desired results were delivered. Moisturized and smooth skin.

(11) How soon will I see results for all the products after application?

Immediately.

(12) How does the price compare to other products in it's category?

Prometheus products are priced friendly for all budgets. Individually, the products are priced competitively with others of their kind. This is a good investment!

(13) How well do the products travel? Are they air travel friendly?

Have Prometheus (www.Prometheuscosmetics.com) will travel! In your purse, back pack, attache, dop kit, or travel kit, all products pack and travel well.

(14) Would I share these products with friends?

Absolutely! Everyone who experienced my kit, enjoyed the products.
I would not share my Kissable Lip Plumper with anyone-it's all mine!

(15) Are there any natural ingredients?

Grape seed extract, green tea extract, vitamin C, Vitamin E, Organic Aloe Vera.

(16) Is animal testing used to determine the effectiveness of the product?

NO.

(17) Is the container bio-degradable?

NO.

(18) What kind of topical cosmetic products may be used over basic skin care?

Foundation, mineral powder and sunless tanning creams, retinol depending on the circumstance.

(19) What is the texture result of cosmetic products over skincare?

A very smooth finish would best describe the result of cosmetic product over Prometheus skin care.

(20) Does the product need any other ingredients to make it more effective?

None. Prometheus delivers effective results!

(21) Can the skin care product be worn under stage makeup?

Yes. Stage makeup can be drying and damaging to the skin.
A little bit of Prometheus Radiant Glow Anti-Aging Day Moisturizer (www.Prometheuscosmetics.com) provides a great moisture barrier between skin and stage makeup.

(22) If a small child or pet got into any of these products, what would happen?

There may be a bit of a stinging sensation for a short time if the product
ended up in the eyes. Naturally, USBR recommends that all cosmetic products are kept out of the reach of children and animals.

(23) Where can I buy these products?

You can start your own collection of Prometheus products by visiting
www.prometheuscosmetics.com. The website is very user friendly and with every purchase, your name is entered into a drawing for $1,000.00.

(24) Are the products gender specific?

The skin care products, in my opinion, appeal to everyone.
So far, Kissable Lip Plumper has quite a lady following.

(25) What age groups could the products target?

All ages. I have seen, with my own eyes, results from ages 15-60+.

(26) What are the perks to buying the brand?

Great skin results, using a product you can believe in, great customer service, getting your name in a drawing for $1,000.00 with every purchase.

(27) Is the packaging gender specific?

The skin care packaging appeals to everyone.
So far, Kissable Lip Plumper is still a favorite with the ladies.

(28) Would I give any of the products as a gift and when?

I would gift these products to anyone for any reason and for every occasion.

Start your Holiday shopping right now at www.Prometheuscosmetics.com!

(29) Do I believe this line has a future in cosmetic retail?

Most certainly. This is the most gender friendly line on the market.
The line is simple to use, delivers great results and is priced right for everyone!

(30) What would I do to this line to make it more appealing to a wider audience?

Start telling your friends about Prometheus Cosmetics and visit the website:

www.prometheuscosmetics.com.

(31) Is this a high maintenance line? Do you serve the products or do they serve you?

My grandmother would always say when someone wore something that did not suit them, "The coat is wearing the lady." After trying Prometheus Cosmetics,
I can hear her saying, "The lady wears the coat."

Realistically, the products will serve 95% of everyone who tries them.
The other 5% will have needs met only by medical and nutritional guidance.
As with any skin care regime, always drink water and take vitamins as needed.
Water hydrates the skin from the inside out and helps to curb premature aging due to dryness.
There is no product on the face of the Earth that will deliver consistent 100% results if you do not take care of yourself from the inside out.

Thank you for joining us for the Prometheus Cosmetics review! Make it a great day!

COLD WEATHER SKIN CARE

2009-02-02T17:14:00.000-08:00

Right now, there is a nasty streak of cold weather that is devestating many parts of our great country. If you have been subjected to this cold weather, you understand the harsh
effects it has on any exposed skin.

READ THIS: Keep your skin moist. What skin? All skin, especially the skin exposed to the elements.
How do I keep skin moist on a budget? There are many ways to satisfy your skin's moisture needs on a budget. Start with Jergens products. These are great for multiple uses
throughout the day. Aveeno, www.aveeno.com, makes products that deliver great results and are geared to sensitive skin. Neutragena. This is a brand associated with deep treatment and healing. This Scandanavian based product line has taken the guess work out of over the counter deep moisture treatment products. We recommend all products for use. This would include all bath oils. Place the oil on your body while in the shower or tub after washing for the ultimate in body moisturizing treatment, blot with a soft warm towel and follow with your favorite Neutragena topical moiturizer. Products are available in a very unique and enjoyable scent or unscented.

NOW PRODUCTS, www.nowfoods.com sells a great castor oil for all who seek a more natural approach to skin care. Place the oil in your bath or onto your body while in the shower for mega moisturizing. Add any aromatherapy oils to the mix for theraputic and scentual properties. www.nowfoods.com I have pressed the oil into my face before cleansing for a deep moistuizing cleanse. This treatment will leave skin balmy and moist. Most of all, it will leave your skin semi-weather proof. Apply your favorite moisturizer for extended moisture results.

Apply a primer with a silicone base over the skin (think thin layer) under your foundation. Tarte makes a great primer called Clean Slate that I swear by. www.tarte.com. Generally during this time of the year, for the sake of protection, I dust mineral foundation atop the moisture layers to seal and set the treatments and color. The harsh wind will blow cold on your skin and can remove your moisture barrier. Prepare your skin for cold weather conditions.

LIPS. Nivea makes "super products" geared to moisturize, treat and protect. I keep a tube of their products in my purses, by my computer and on my night stand. Always mositurize your lips. They are one of the thinest exposed skin area of the body.

HANDS. Keep your hands moist and covered at all times. Use bag balm for a mega moisture treatment. Apply balm, cover with a thick sock and allow to set while you sleep. When you wake up the next morning, you will have balmy, moist hands ready for a new winter day!

Darphin-A Lifestyle Line

2009-01-14T21:33:00.000-08:00

Darphin is one of the most amazing product lines I have ever incorporated into my daily regime. To call it a skincare line is to sell it short os its true identitiy-a lifestyle line. All ingredients are designed to deliver optimal results and they do. Every face and eye cream smoothed onto my skin immediately activated decongesting properties.

If seeing is believing, then my hair was the softest and shiniest it had ever been after using the shea butter hair mask. The fragrance from this product was pleasing for at least three days after treatment. Each shampoo in this family of hair care produces results that live up to their namesake. Occasionally, the company will release salon size shampoo products to its loyal clients. Check with Darphin (http://www.darphin.com/) for release dates to reserve your salon size product.

It was my priviledge to apply Hydroform Oil (http://www.fragrancenet.com/) to the orange peel surface skin on the back of my thighs. The next morning I woke up to smoother, softer skin. The use of the lifestyle line known as Darphin is highly recommended and will certainly enhance the quality of your life.

Darphin is an exclusive line that can be purchased at Fragrancenet.com, beauty.com and
Neiman Marcus.

2009-01-07T14:12:00.000-08:00

Keep your hands looking great by exfoliating and mositurizing them. Your hands tell all.
For deep therapy, place a thick layer of your favorite moisturizer on the backs of your hands and on your fingers. Place a thick soft sock or a rubber mitt over your hands. Allow them to set an hour or overnight. After this moisture surge therapy, your hands will be fresh and lovely.

Lip Therapy

2009-01-06T22:07:00.000-08:00

During the winter months, it is important to keep your lips moist and supple so they do not crack. With a simple sneeze, the delicate skin of the outer lips can split causing pain and an unattractive lip. How do you prevent the sneeze/split of winter? Here are a couple of solutions that are quite affordable.

(1) Nivea-A Kiss of Rejuvenation Q10+-Ulta, Walgreens.
(2) Sally Hansen 24 Hour Lip Treatment-Walgreens
(3) Castor Oil-Rub a light film on the lips before you go to bed. Repeat throught the day.
Healthfood store.
(4) Any moisturizing lip color-Your favorite shade!
(5) Clinique-All About Lips-Macy's.
(6) Peppermint Oil-Moisturizes and helps to plump lips-Your favorite healthfood store.
(7) G.M. Collin-Lip Plumper
(8) Arovita Lip Treatment-Darphin-Fragrancenet.com

Keep your lips healthy and kissable this winter season.

If you have additional questions about winter lip therapy, email your questions to usbr1@hotmail.com.

Double Cleansing

2009-01-06T22:02:00.000-08:00

If you have ever had a delicious facial at a high end spa, you know that to double cleanse is ritual. What does is mean to double cleanse? Well, to double cleanse is to cleanse then exfoliate.
This allows your skincare to work better for you.

So the next time you start your day, remember to double cleanse!

Do You Have Your Sunless Tanner For the Early Spring Season?

2009-01-06T21:45:00.000-08:00

Well, do you? If not, check out Darphin, Nivea spray, L'oreal and Estee Lauder. There is something for all budgets.

How do you get the best results? Start with well moisturized skin. I have layered my tanning agents in the past with striking results.

The best in home formula to date (Remembering to exfoliate before you start):
(1) Start with Prescriptives Super Line Preventer.
(2) Allow this fabulous serum to naturally progress into your skin.
(3) When the surface of your skin is balmy, add your first application of self tanner.
(4) Repeat at least three times making sure that applications are even and have set.
(5) Maintain your self made glow by keeping your skin moisturized, hydrating toners are great!
(6) Results should last up to three days.

DO NOT: Use whitning creams, bleaches, exfoliators (grommage or glycolic) after applications.

I applied these tanning best practices in February one year and got the most amazing results. It worked so well, I continue this ritual. Responses to the tanning process included asking me where I went on vacation, how did I get so dark, and what products did you use. That week, sales at the counter were amazing for products that would deliver dayglow.

You can add depth by splashing a bit of bronzing powder on the forehead, bridge of the nose, on the cheeks and collar bones. Add intensity by swirling your bronzer with your favorite blush. I like peach tones, they seem to work well with all color bronzers.

If you have questions about how to achieve your off season dayglow, please contact me at usbr1@hotmail.com.

Adriene Arpel

2009-01-01T19:52:00.000-08:00

Adriene Arpel has taken her place among cosmetic and skincare royalty by successfully remaining in the industry for many, many years. She one again amazed me with her savvy when she introduced the precious Argon Oil from Morrocco. This dry oil has been the fountain of youth for Morroracan women for centuries. Skincare companies have been trying to capture this formula for decades and Adriene brings it to you.

If you want immediate results, try Argon oil. It will be worth your while. There is a series of products containing this powerful ingredient that work well as a system.

Marilyn Miglin

2009-01-01T19:40:00.000-08:00

This grand dame of beauty has delivered timeless treasures for generations to come.
Let's start with the ageless popularity of Pheremone. This potion for attraction scores high on the beauty barometer for results. Over the years, many of my clients have told me that when I'm ready to find a husband, wear Pheremone.

Not only has Ms. Miglin mastered an modern day love potion no.9, she has addressed the many skincare needs of women globally. Always a lady, she works hard and smart. I must say she has earned my respect by contributing greatly to the community on quite a grand scale. Plus, she is one of the few property owners who have business claims on Chicago's exclusive Oak Street. Not only has she created great skincare and fragrance, she has managed to create an empire. We'll keep you posted on more great products from this master of production.
Marilyn, you're fantastic!

2009-01-01T15:19:00.001-08:00

The first time I used this dental beauty masterpiece was like sheer Heaven in my mouth. Men and women alike flock to Darphin for multiple tubes or even a sample size for travel. The taste is very pleasing, not too strong or weak, but just right. After purchasing your first tube, we strongly suggest you repurchase in multiples. This is the one Darphin item that seems to sell out before all others.

Suracell-Make Beautiful From Inside Out

2009-01-01T15:12:00.002-08:00

When we first encountered this proven system that turns back the hands of time, thoughts of skepticism raced through our minds. After seeing proof positive from others who used this genetic completion program, we were sold. The results we saw ranged from smoothing of extremely uneven skin to overall better skintone. Those we spoke with said they felt better after one week to one month of use and that those around them noticed a visible difference in their appearance and over all well being.

What's the magic behind the brand? The system was created by Dr. Vincent Giampapa, founder of the SURACELL corporation. What it does is complete your DNA. After taking your customized supplements your aging process will start to halt at your present age.

What's envolved with the process? The initial kit-follow the directions by swabbing the inside of the mouth. This DNA test is then sent to SURACELL for analysis where you are sent a customized report and product reccomendation. The products are in pill form to be taken internally. Imagine having your very own customized care!

It is still reccomended that you continue a regular external beauty regime.
Remember to drink plenty of water.

Having never used a cheek stain, I was very excited to use the complementary gifted to all who attended this coveted session. Tickeled Peach stained my tan cheeks and lifted my spritis as viewing the results boosted my ego to new ultra heights! The color wore all day and into the night.
