"After extractions, do you recommend using a little blemish control toner or blemish spot tx to get in there and kill some bacteria before serums and mask? Would either be too strong after an enzyme tx?"

Pat Rorke replied to Madeleine Bongiorno's discussion Any recommendations for a great results oriented all natural line?"I agree with Ally...Used Osmosis for about six months and did not see huge results.

Madeleine Bongiorno replied to Jennifer Ondo's discussion Oxygen facial"I have heard it said that one only wants to use an oxygen tx on congested or acneic skin. The thought being that the oxygen tx creates free radicals so is therefore not a good anti-aging tx. Is that true?"

Ally guest replied to Madeleine Bongiorno's discussion Any recommendations for a great results oriented all natural line?"I just have to be the naysayer here, I am currently phasing out of Osmosis products.

Ally guest replied to Madeleine Bongiorno's discussion Any recommendations for a great results oriented all natural line?"I just looked over this line and it's just a private label version of essential wholesale products. Which admittedly, I like a few... but not an active/effective line."
Ally guest replied to Madeleine Bongiorno's discussion Any recommendations for a great results oriented all natural line?"I have worked with this line at a couple of resorts, and at both it was phased out because all of the estheticians hated working with it and the price point is ridiculous.

penny valentine said… Hi,
I represent an organic line called Tao. Very active line and much less than Image. I do use Image for some things but, they are expensive. You can buy professional sized products for your back bar. Let me know if you're interested. I love this product!!

Kelli Snow said… Hi Madeline,
I know that in Tampa, It's a little slow for estheticians at the moment. However, in Sarasota, people are willing to spend to get spa treatments. But the clients I've had seem interested in natural/organic skincare products. I hope this answers your questions. Best of luck to you.
