NutrimetRics

Filed under: General rant

I missed a day of NaBloPoMo! But I promise I wrote this on Sunday, then on Monday I couldn’t log in to publish, so I will post twice today, once now and again after work :-)

One of my colleagues at work called Nutrimetics "nutrimetrics’ every time she says it, cracks me up everytime… anyways, I had another party yesterday, my third in a year to claim the free $100 worth of goodies for doing this whole thing. So I bought a few christmas catalogue things and spent my $100 (which has to be on full priced stuff). I really didn’t care about the whole sales thing, in fact I was hoping people wouldn’t buy a whole lot. But they did. Between four of us we managed to spend $600+ (most of that was by only 2 of them!) and one of them booked another party. Then came the catch… I could get another $270 worth of stuff for a fraction of the price if one more person booked a party. I was hoping that this wouldn’t happen, but I couldn’t pass up all that free stuff! So one of the girls from work and I are having a joint party in January. I was so hoping this would all be over! But now I have attend another one in December (for the first person to book one) then co-host another one. However… it was totally worth it because now I have not one, but three facecare sets coming my way (cleanser, toner and moisturiser) which will last me at least a year total, plus a powder compact, 3 soaps (lemon meringue and cherry blossom scents, yum!), 2 shower gels, a lip gloss, a nail polish and a bubble bath (a cute wee ducky, it’s going to be a christmas present). All that for about $135 total, pretty awesome! I can’t wait till it all arrives, I’ll take a photo of it all and share. I’m sure I’ve said this before, but I would never pay full price for any of their stuff, it’s good stuff, but not that good. So the fact that it was ‘worth’ something in the region of $400-500 is kinda irrelevant - it’s not worth that much to me, but that was some pretty good bargains right there. Even if I bought the J.ohnsons or D.ove or N.utrogena brand stuff from the supermarket, it would still cost me at least as much to keep me covered for a year.

I am very interested to see how one particular product goes though, it’s supposed to even out your skin tone, and the lady told me that her and all the other sales consultants are having to change the colour of their foundation because this product is actually working so well. Of course, they’d say almost anything to make a sale, but it still sounds promising, and see as it was practically free, I thought I’d give it a go. I’ll do a before shot in case it works so I can let you see if it does work.

  1. A girl loves a good bargain! The lemon meringue sound divine! I’m interested to see if the toner turns out to deliver all it’s promised.

    I love anything citrus, whether a scent or food! They are divine, there was also a honey almond scent, but that just smelt like regular old soap to me.
