Beauty Product Junkie - July 2007



This exciting lip range from Joey NY Specialty consists of LipNIX to curb the urge to smoke, LipFIT to curb your appetite and cinnaMEN to attract a man all available in lip sticks, glosses, balms and gloss pallets.

Each of the formulas takes different fragrances which are proven to assist in the certain urges and further contain Dermaxyl which is clinically proven to firm and plump lips instantly. The fragrances are meant to work by triggering the brain to react and do so without an over bearing fragrance, much like aromatherapy however Joey NY Specialty refers to this as “aromachology”. The LipNIX contains the fresh aroma blend of Geranium, Lemon and Helichrysum proven to assist in quitting smoking. A mix of peppermint, grapefruit and spearmint is there to assist slimming the hips. While a man cannot resist the combination of vanilla and cinnamon.





Now I love lip glosses and lip sticks and believe their promises whole heartedly to last longer, shine all day, cover evenly all while gently conditioning my lips and making my pout irresistible. However, helping me quit smoking, attract a man and loose weight now that I thought perhaps going a little too far on the promises… but I was happy to take the Joey test with an open mind.

I was planning to quit smoking so I took the Joey challenge and used only their LipNIX. To give an idea I smoked approximately 15-20 cigarettes per day, 8 mg and had smoked at this rate for approximately two years. I used no other smoking aid such as patches, gum or lozenges,… cold turkey was the only way for this trail! I was re-applying the lip gloss each time a craving would occur or a situation where a cigarette would normally be consumed such as after a meal.

I am happy to report that it has now been exactly 27 days and I have not had one cigarette, not even a puff! And due to the ingredient blend of Beeswax, Shea Butter, Aloe Oil with Vitamin E, Lanolin, Safflower Oil, Castor Oil and aromas my lips are kept wonderfully moisturised and soft.

Obviously I did go through normal withdrawal symptoms, and my partner can vouch for my irritability the first two weeks. I was an emotional yo-yo some days, so please if you do trail this product be realistic that it does require your will power and effort to quit also. This is not a quick fix solution, merely a great tool to help you. Definitely a tool I can highly recommend all the same which I purchased at an affordable and realistic price of $16.99 from Priceline.

With one success under my belt not only am I very happy to recommend the Joey NY Specialty LipNIX lip balm but I am looking forward to trailing their cinnaMEN to see how much the aroma really has on my partner! You can check out the whole range at www.joeynewyork.com.

The Beauty Products Journey

July 28th 2007 10:07
[I have to admit, I love beauty products, like a true addict I always am on the hunt for a new product. I can spend hours and hours walking through aisles at department stores just looking and trying new products. I worked in Pharmacy for a number of years previously where all these wonderful products were readily available for me to trail. Now that I have gone down another career path I am afraid I am having withdrawal symptoms. I have warn so many shoes down just by walking up and down the same aisle in the hope something new and exciting has come out. Even just an ad on TV for a new mascara makes me so excited, like a kid a Christmas time.

The problem though with being such an addict to beauty products is that over the years I have bought so many different items within different price ranges, I have stocked up enough to open a store of hardly used items. Although some items are great, the problem lies with me. I just do not have the discipline to spend every morning cleansing, toning, moisturising, prepping, and putting 20 layers of make-up only to look like that there is not much on anyway. And then more time each night to gentle remove said make-up, exfoliate, cleanse, tone, moisturise and condition etc.

I have believed all the promises to last longer, not rub off, make my skin look beautiful, make me smell so good that men will fall over, the list goes on and on. As I am sure many many of us do! But my wallet and bathroom cupboards cannot handle any more products. So I have decided to curb my addition with advisory therapy.

I shall share my experiences with others so that hopefully we can all handle our addictions together. At least we will know from first hand experience the quality of products from personal experience.
