I am so thankful that I discovered Mario Badesu's products.  I will NEVER live without them.  I have oily skin and from time to time I get an occasional pimple.  The drying lotion will clear it up fast - as will the drying mask that he has.  My daughter (junior high) is cursed with the beginning stages of acne.  I can't believe it gets you that young!!  I've shared my Mario products with her and she enjoys using them.  Its a special way for her and I to spend "girl time" together.  She gets the tiny whiteheads on her nose and this stuff gets rid of them overnight or by the day after.  If she stops using the product, they come back.  Acne is so brutal!  I suffered with it as a youngster and I wish that I had the drying lotion back then!  When you order, you ALWAYS get freebie samples.  No one ever does that these days!  I tell people about his products all of the time.  Please, please try the Special Healing Powder.  It covers any redness that you have on your face, in addition to absorbing oil.  I swear that I have the oiliest skin on the planet and I cannot do without this product.  I will not.  I always buy 2 at time.  I put the powder on at bedtime and I use it every morning.  You can mix the powder with your regular face powder or you can use it by itself.  I can't give it enough praise!!!

Yes, if you go to the contact us page and you select General Information, you can submit your photo to them and they will usually respond in one business day with what products they recommend for you. In your email you can ask them to send you samples of stuff and how to use them before you make the purchase. It's great.
As for shaking the bottle, I have seen in the magazines that they have the product all shaken up and pictured and I have seen people online misusing the product.

I didn't know that you could send them photos. What a great service! You definitely can't shake the bottle! It says that on the label. I think that our bottle has lasted at least 2 months. I'm not sure what the shelf life is for Mario Badesu products.

Mario Badescu does have some great products, but again, it all depends on your skin type. You can email them and send them a picture of your face as well and they will recommend what products they believe will best work for you and how to use them. That's what a company is all about. I have seen the drying lotion misued though. People shake the bottle then use it which is not the correct way. There is a forum at: http://FTPDiscounts.blogspot.com that tells you how to use it. It also gives you a 15% discount on there also. I do say though, this bottle should last you about a month or more regardless of its size.

If you get the big under-the-skin type bumps on your jawline - the best thing for that isthe Buffering Lotion (shake well before using) by Mario Badescu. This Drying Lotion is best for small bumps (whiteheads).

After reading this, I am ready to give it a try! I have used other Mario Badesceu products in the past with great results. I get these bad bumps along my jawline, and NOTHING seems to help.
