Review (4/5): Order Ahead~
The good:
Packaging is very much discreet, and inside the box was another pretty box. They sent it to me in a little black box, with some really pretty tissue paper around the jar. And a little business card.
Speaking of the jar, that's discreet, too. The label peels right off, leaving you with a simple black jar with a silver lid. The cream is filled to the TOP of the container, and it smells so wonderfully of vanilla.
Without the label, it can easily pass for any kind of body/face cream on the market.
Applying it, you really do only need a little bit, like a fingertip's worth. It's very creamy at first, and even with only a small amount it looks like you used way too much with the way it just spreads out, and then it feels and looks very oily before finally absorbing. Now I understand why 4oz is sufficient for a month supply.
I might edit in later on to share any results, seeing as there aren't any other reviews on it at all... Presuming anyone requests it anyway. (No sense wasting the time writing it up here if no one cares to know. ;p)
Their site says you can 'see results' within 2 weeks, but we all know how much that varies from person to person. However, it has Pueraria Mirifica in it, and that stuff is strong, so who knows how fast it'll work.
The bad: Delivery.
There is no "fast" option - when you order it, your only option is 5-8 days.
I placed this order July 6, on a Saturday, and it was expected to go out the following Monday or Tuesday.
It "left the facility" on Wednesday, July 10th.
It was expected to arrive between Thursday, July 11 - Tuesday, July 16.
It finally got to my post office July 18th.
Considering that I had to PAY for the shipping, unlike a good 95% of my orders on Amazon, I can't say I'm impressed with the seller's delivery speed. Of course, I don't know if their shipping is always like this, either, and it was only 2 days off of the estimated date, which is why I only docked 1 star. But for future orders through them, I will order a week or two ahead of time -- just in case -- and I suggest you do the same.
********
ETA: Second time around it arrived one week later on the dot. I ordered it on the 7th (with a new shipping option of 3-5 days) and it arrived on the 14th. No business card this time (maybe because I've bought from them before?) but it arrived in the same pretty box with the same pretty tissue paper.
