Because I do have a bottle of Rose Mosqueta Moisturizing Cream (4 oz.) for dry skin that I used once and a bottle of Vegecol Facial Cleansing Lotion for Sensitive Skin (8 oz.) that I used, say four times. They cost about thirty new. I don't feel that they are really worth new hair sticks, though, since they are opened and a little used. Maybe one hairstick. They are both mostly full. I don't know how well the cleanser really cleans--it is quite mild, maybe too mild if you are prone to breaking out. It got very good reviews, which is why I bought it, and it seemed okay on day one, but then it wasn't. I read an article by a dermatologist that said a product might be okay once, but you can't really know if it is okay until you have used it a few days, so this was one of those things. The cream made my skin sting badly right away. I think my face dislikes a lot of botanical oils (even "soothing" ones), but I don't think it would bother most folks. It had a nice slip to it, too--not too hard to smooth in, not too much rubbing.
There are other things, but I may give them to my sister. The only other thing that I really want gone is a bottle of Twinlab Na-PCA moisturizer spray, the non-oily kind. Whoa, that was a bad idea--I knew an esthetician who loved it and I did not read the label. Acid and eucalyptus--not so great for ye old senstive skin. It is supposedly a "moisturizing" acid that occurs in your skin. It is not really worth trading by itself, but if someone wanted the AO, I could add the spray, too. I bought it at the co-op, but it has ethanol in it, which does not sound natural to me. The preservative is monolaurin or some such thing. It is the preservative found in mother's milk.
Blah. That's it! I doubt anyone need so many details--I guess I have never swapped anything before.
