Virgin Vie

[PrettyCandles]

Is their stuff good? Is it worth the price?

I wnet to a Virgin party for the first time the other day, and am tempted by some of the stuff, but as I've not been much of a user of these sorts of things in the past I don't have a standard of comparison and don't really want to get suckered in by pretty packaging and marketing.

I've been suckered in several times - it is really nice (especially the tinted moisturiser), but I'm never fully convinced that it's worth the price.

I found a face wash and a moisturiser that i really really like (the vitamin C stuff, smells of oranges mmmmmm). I'm not really into beauty products and have bought several tubes of stuff at parties that sit on the shelf, but i would say it is good stuff, nice quality.

I'm a consultant! What bits are you interested in - I can give the the low down on whether they are any good! I've not done parties since Xmas and now have a newborn, but I do like the skincare - my skin is loads better and you can mix and match the range to suit.

The anti-aging stuff - I'm not bothered by sagging boobs (I'm breastfeeding my third child, AFAI'm concerned, sagging boobs are a badge of honour!) but I don't like the crepy effect I'm getting between them, especially when I get a bit of sun. Also facial aging.

IMO very similar to BodyShop stuff.

I've been to a couple of parties and I agree don't get suckered in by pretty packaging - all overpriced IMO particularly the jewellery for what it is. The make up I ordered last time irritated my skin and went in the bin.
