I was a virgin Vie Virgin....not any more.
Review of Virgin Vie Spa Range by
bexxie
Advantages: See text
Disadvantages: See text
...Until last night I was a Virgin Vie, virgin, I never thought that the company ‘Virgin’ would do cosmetics I mean as if? But after being persuaded I reluctantly trundled off to this home party that Virgin Vie apparently did. All I can say is wow! I am going again in fact I am hosting a party this coming Thursday I was so impressed and am thinking of becoming an independent consultant for them.
Known as classes, when you book a class, a trained Virgin Vie independent consultant will bring their products direct to your house, this gives you the chance to invite lots of friends bring out the wine and generally have a great time trying out lots of fantastic quality products at reasonable prices in the comfort of your own home.
You get advice about the products, a free facial or makeover and some tips to boot. And by hosting...

ENERGISE ME VIRGIN VIE
Review of Virgin Vie Vitamin C Energising Skin Fix by
princesssoapy
Advantages: see op
Disadvantages: see op
...Now I am going to bore you all some more and tell you all about my ongoing infatuation with Virgin Vie products this must be well known by now as this just one in a long line of success stories with Virgin Vie products.
The Virgin Vie representative let me borrow her energising skin polisher and energising skin fix because I was a little worried that they wouldn't be suitable for my very sensitive skin, so I borrowed them for 5 days. In that time I used them twice, as you only have to use these products about once or twice a week to get the results you want.
This op follows on from the skin polisher and like the skin polisher this skin fix contains Vitamin C, Hydractin and Vitamin E.
So what is the energising skin fix and how do you use it? You need to cleanse your skin first then after using the skin polisher you apply...

Stay Calm its Virgin Vie
Review of Virgin Vie Stay Calm Range by
princesssoapy
Advantages: Does not cause any irritation like other sensitive skin creams.
Disadvantages: Quite expensive and not sold in the high street.
...When I first heard of Virgin Vie I thought, oh its just another lot of creams and make up nothing special, but how wrong could I have been?
Virgin Vie is quite expensive but worth every penny the Stay Calm range is just excellent. You see I have developed, over several years, very sensitive skin and have tried loads of face creams for my skin type only to find that I am allergic to them, my face tingles, I itch then my whole face swells up and I can't go out for days!! Not good eh? Well with virgin vie I don't even get the tingle!
Which I think is what is supposed to happen with all of the products for sensitive skin!
In the Stay Calm range you can get a daytime moisturiser, cleanser, toner, eye make-up remover and night moisturiser. I still have to try the night moisturiser but if it is as good as the rest i...

Virgin Vie Pure shine Lip Gloss
Review of Virgin Vie Pure Shine by
spam27
Advantages: Great colours, Looks great
Disadvantages: None
...Virgin Vie Pure Shine Lip Gloss
Virgin Vie is part of the well known Virgin company and sells cosmetics and beauty product, the brand has been established now for many years. In addition to having stores Virgin Vie also have consultants that do cosmetic/beauty parties in your own home ( a bit like an anne summers party only with make up) I have been advised also that Vigin Vie cosmatics are now available in larger department store although I have not come across any.
The gloss ia available in a variety of lovley colours and there should be one to suit most people. The packaging is basically a small see through tube and a black lid with a built in applicator. It is simple but looks good. The gloss costs approx £8 which I find good value as it lasts for ages.
I liked the texture of the gloss and found it a lot less sticky than...

VIRGIN VIE CRACKLING BODY EXPERIENCE
Review of Virgin Vie Cooling Foot Fizz by
ms19
Advantages: relaxing, unusual, smells nice
Disadvantages: doesn't work instantly, expensive
...This product is not the foot fizz but it is similar to it and it fizzes.
I always remember a while back when I was in Glasgow and there was not yet a Virgin Vie shop in Edinburgh, trying out a new product which amazed me. You put it on your hand and it crackled into your skin but by crackled I don't mean it hurt but it fizzed in and disappeared. I was always annoyed that I had not bought it at the time that was, until an Edinburgh Virgin Vie branch opened and I went in for a look. I found my product instantly the blue packaging stood out it was called The Go Sea Crackling Body Experience.
In an avergae can, bottle whatever you want to call it of the product you get 150ml which is not bad. The colour of the can is an ocean blue a very aquamarine colour. On the front is the Virgin Vie logo and product title and then at the back...

Not A Bright Day For Virgin Vie!
Review of Virgin Vie Eye Brightener by
neenn
Advantages: I can't find any.
Disadvantages: Doesn't brighten my eyes!
...As many of you may have realised I do have a lot of Virgin Vie make-up products, most of which I have been utterly delighted with and have all been well worth the little extra expense. Unfortunately I have been totally disappointed with this one.
Price ~ £7
~ Availability ~
Online at www.virgincosmetics.com
OR
At a Virgin Vie night
Or
If you are lucky enough to have a V.V shop nearby.........I have!
~ What is it? ~
This looks like an eyeliner pencil. It's silver, and has a silvery / white pencil section which has a lid on it to protect the pencil section.
V.V. advertises this as being for 'eyes wide open'. It is meant to be applied to your lower lash line for an enlightening effect.
~ My experience ~
I am not a make-up artist but am by no means the worst at applying eye make-up but I really can't get...

Spring Clean Detox Shampoo by Virgin Vie
Review of Virgin Vie Detox Shampoo by
liz.carl
Advantages: Smell, deep cleansing, soft manageable hair
Disadvantages: slightly pricey
...I first bought this shampoo at a friend's Virgin Vie party, mainly to get a reasonable selection of items at a reasonable cost. The shampoo was £5.00 and although a little pricey for shampoo, I thought as it was a detox shampoo I would really only need to use it once a week as the the bottle says to 'Give your regular shampoo a rest and treat your hair to a detoxifying spring clean'.
The bottle is very modern looking and holds 250ml of shampoo. It has a good closing clip on the bottom of the bottle which prevents spillage and stands upright on basically any surface.
The smell is divine, making me think of fresh summer evenings abroad. It has a fresh melony type of smell which is very refreshing and clean.
It lathers up very well, and even on my fine hair detangles pretty well. Once rinsed it gives the feeling of a deep...

Virgin Vie spring clean detox
Review of Virgin Vie Detox Shampoo by
stezatois1
Advantages: leaves hair feeling light and fresh
Disadvantages: a tad pricey
...I was bought Virgin Vie spring clean detox shampoo as a stocking filler at Christmas. I am one of these people with funny hair, it does not like for me to use the same shampoo twice in a row.
I have to say though that this particular shampoo was just brilliant. It has a fresh aquamarine aroma to it. Every time I use it my hair feels much lighter. Being such an expensive shampoo I generally only use it about once a week. I like to detox my hair ready for a weekend of enjoyment. I only get 2 weekends out of 4 to go out clubbing and having fun, so I make the most.
I always get to have silky, shiny hair, fortunately its naturally straight so no need for straighteners and gunk. Though my sister always said it cleared away the gunk she always wore on a day to day basis.
Its seems to go a really long way too, I have only had to buy...

Virgin Vie Sheer Perfection Tinted Moisturiser.
Review of Virgin Vie Sheer Perfection Tinted Moisturiser by
fluffy20
Advantages: All in one moisturiser and foundation, handy if you are in a hurry.
Disadvantages: Light coverage. I found it a little drying.
...I have about 5 minutes in the morning to get myself ready so when I saw this demonstrated at a friends Virgin vie party it looked ideal.
I tried the samples and chose Ivory. It arrived in about 10 days. At £10 it may seem expensive but remember you are getting a moisturiser too.
After cleansing your face in the morning it is applied in place of a moisturiser. It should even out skin tone and cover any blemishes. It is a light coverage and gives a healthy glow rather than a matt look. I found that it covered well and I didn't need to use a lot.
The Ivory colour worked well with my natural colour and looked very natural but I think I prefer something with a thicker consistancy. Especially at my age! I also prefer my makeup to have a matt look, I did try covering it with a light dusting of powder but it showed my wrinkles up a bit. After...

Virgin Vie Detox Shampoo
Review of Virgin Vie Detox Shampoo by
Annaneal
Advantages: Consentrated for longer lasting use.Beautifully cleanses hair leving it smelling fantastic and feeling really clean
Disadvantages: pricy but worth it
...I firstly tried Virgin Vie products at a party and had a make-over.
I bought quite a few products and thought they were amazing.
Great on my skin as its usually quite sensitive.
I bought some detox shampoo as I regularily use styling products and I was really impressed.
Smelt lovely,hair really felt clean and manageable.
Definitively going to buy it again.
The price is a bit more than your regular shampoo but you could use it in between you normal shampoos to make it last longer.
Good size bottle, nice packaging and smells delicious!
However, Pantene have brought out a similar product and you get more value for money.Larger bottle and you can pick this up in your local superstore.This does the job perfectly and you feel immediate results...
