    Cold Cream- Brands and advice!

    That Lush bar sounds cool, and quite easy to make! I have some soap molds in the shapes of sunny faces, but don't make soap anymore (loved making it, can't use it!) so I may just drag out some of my butters and oils and whip up a Lush-like bar cleanser! I tried Pond's for awhile, but I just...

    Besame cosmetics

    I agree, they, or any company for that matter, can do whatever they want in terms of providing information to customers or potential customers. It's just that doing it the way they have been usually drives business away, not a smart idea if they plan on trying to stay in business Actually...

    Besame cosmetics

    Well, that's business! When you have customers, you have to answer to them. And who knows if they are going through a financial crisis, as a company? I don't think it's "impolite" to simply want to know what's going on. The reaction most customer's have to misinformation, lack of information, or...

    Besame cosmetics

    Yes that started *just* before the big clearance sale. At first, the ebayer was selling each one individually for $3.99 each and about $5 shipping! But, they had no bisque. :-( Then, all of the sudden, they changed the auction to the lots of 50. I think that Besame took them to task for selling...

    Besame cosmetics

    I didn't ask them directly that question when I spoke with someone on the phone yesterday, because at the time, I didn't think they were. But the (very young) woman I spoke with really hem-hawed around my questions, saying only that I shouldn't expect any new products for at least a year, and...

    Besame cosmetics

    Well, certainly no one will die over this, LOL! And yes, the prices are good. But, I think they could have handled the whole thing better, and I do think loyal customers have reason to be a bit irritated. They've been talking about new products for over a year that never materialized, and now...

    Besame cosmetics

    More bad news I emailed one of the e-tailers that only just recently started carrying Besame (last month or so), b-Glowing. I noticed they no longer have Besame on the website, so asked, is the company going totally out of business? The reply was, yes, they are "closing up shop." I don't think...

    Besame cosmetics

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to let you all know that I decided to try to get some definite answers today concerning the future of Besame products! So I called and asked if it is true that they are only going to make lipsticks in the future, and they won't be replacing any of the eye shadow...

    Besame mascara update Hi everyone, Just wanted to let you all know that I just received a promotional email from Besame today that included information that some initial shipments of the mascara were faulty, and an offer for a new tube to anyone who thinks they may have received a faulty one...

    Besame cosmetics

    I think so too! Can't wait! I received the mascara and my preliminary impression is only so-so. It seems very thick and sticky, and did clump my lashes. I had to work through them quite a bit with a comb to get them separated well. But this could be due to residue from my powder and sunscreen...

    new bakelite from besame I just stumbled across this article (by the way, check out the slide show that shows the making of the lipstick!): http://www.businessweek.com/smallbiz/content/oct2006/sb20061003_147058.htm?campaign_id=rss_innovate "Next spring, Hernandez is introducing a new...

    Face Powder Face Off

    One that is pricey but works so well under makeup is Shiseido SPF 55 lotion in the blue bottle. There is also a cream version of this in a blue tube, but you get half as much for the same price. Someone with dry to very dry skin probably could not use these, but usually for those people, regular...

    Face Powder Face Off

    Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum. :) I found this forum doing a search to find cake mascara a few months back, discovered Besame here, along with other great retro products and info. I have used both Coty and Besame powders, and I have to say that they are very similar except for the "in the...
