View Full Version : Shiny face comments?

Hi everyone

I am a new consultant and have been using RE9 for almost 2 weeks. B I love it. But...I have received the same comment a few times now that has me confused. Friends notice how great my skin looks, say it looks so much better, and say it is "shiny". My husband also made a shiny face comment. One friend said it was like I am wearing make up to make it look that way. I do not wear make up so I am baffled. Is this considered the healthy pink skin glow?? I even had someone ask if I was pregnant because I was glowing. I guess I should add I am not in a humid climate and I do not have oily skin.

Hi Sandi~


I know for me (and several others), I cannot use the day cream, night cream or serum because it makes my skin heavy and oily. Try switching to a different day/night cream for a week or so and see if it changes :)

My skin seems to be "shiny" too, even with make up when I use the anti aging line. I love it for the anti Aging, but i actually prefer the way my skin looks with the N-D. I'm waiting to see what they announce next month for skincare!

I am going to throw my 2 cents in - not sure worth much! But I do think people tend to sometimes say shiny glow- healthy glow together- I know my ENVP was in town this wk and she does not have to wear foundation due to her great even skin from using the products and looking at her I noticed what I would say was a healthy shiny look to her skin- did not cross my mind that she was oily- just healthy looking-


Myself- I am oily so I am very sensitive to thinking I look oily- but when I went on a drop off the person had not seen me in couple of months and they commented how great my skin looked - said it had a glow- well I then looked in the car mirror and I saw shiny and thought oh no - I'm looking oily! but when I touched my forehead and cheek area- it was not oily in the sense I could fry an egg on my face- so maybe what some people see as a healthy glow they would describe as shiny and healthy together not as oily-


well thats my 2 cents-

It's the Arbonne "glow" and people always ask me how they can get
it. The RE9 day cream and even the 15 sunscreen and the
foundation really make it clear. It makes you look so youthful
and healthy. I have sold at least 4 sets just from people
noticing the "glow" and wanting it for themselves.

Thank you ladies for reassuring me that I am not crazysmileys/smiley1.gif

My skin also has no oily feel so I think it must be the "glow" factor.

I am going to throw my 2 cents in also, I agree with Leah. I have had customer tell me the creme made them shiny. My first question to them is are you "oily shiny" or are you "glowy shiny"? This is a big difference and when you are not use to seeing your skin "glow" people tend to think they are shiny. Personally, I love it - that was oneof the things I wanted to change about my skin. Thanks Arbonne!

Ah! The glow! I hadn't thought of it that way, really. I've always been a lover of very matte skin, so this is something new for me. smileys/smiley2.gif
