WOW

In all honesty I haven't even used 2 of the 3 products but I thin the blue cocoon is life changing. I have dry skin which's can be sensitive and using the blue cocoon make me feel like I have had a facial and my skin is still soft the next day.

I had not thought about going to an all natural skincare line. I have been using a high end skin line but I really will be a customer for life of May Lindstrom. It is calming, soft my skin feels radiant and like it has been transformed.

Transformed my skin!

I can't say enough about how great these products are. I am so happy that I finally decided to go ahead and purchase this set. My skin has a more even tone, less redness and no flaky patches at all. I wish I had started using these products years ago. I am planning to switch from a full coverage foundation to a sheer coverage just to let my great skin show through. I'm less than impressed with the brush, I'm glad it was free because I would have been upset if I had paid $30 for it. The bristles are already uneven and shedding, I have only used it about 8 times. PSA: the package is send with a signature required, which I totally understand, but I wish I had known that before I placed the order because I would have shipped it to a different address.

wanted to love this

I was SO excited to get this.. I had read a ton on reviews, watched as many videos as i could find and was ready to take the splurge and fall in love. Let me say the packaging is just beautiful, Nice thick black (actually i think its a REALLY dark blue). by letting this set you end up getting the brush for free which is a plus.. it is VERY expensive but i was willing to pay it if it was as good as everyone said.. my problem is i couldn't stand the smell.. To me its awful.. I know others say it smells like chocolate but there must be something wrong with my nose.. i just couldn't stomach the smell.. such a disappointment. I felt bad about returning it but i couldn't waste all that money for something i couldn't use

The Ultimate Pampering Set!

This set is wonderful! The products smell amazing and your skin emerges from the mask concoction of your choice baby soft and radiant. Blue Cocoon is the perfect silky hydrating moisturizer that smells faintly like chocolate and melts into the skin following the mask. I am taking one star off because the brush is not good and impossible to clean. I got 2 uses out of the darn thing.

Believe in the magic!

After the usual month of "gifting others" in June for all manner of occasions, I splurged on this set for myself. It arrived packaged to perfection and each product was beautifully presented and cradled in sexy black tissue shreds with notes included as to use. It was a sensual experience opening and just enjoying! The scents...the textures...the ritual. These products have truly been an awakening for my skin and are perfectly targeted and effective! I crave the scent of them...it is unique, raw, organic, and maybe a bit magical! My sensitive, fair, rosacea-prone 60's skin is glowing and feels nurtured and healed in a week of regular use! The Blue Cocoon may be that elusive "fountain of youth" in a black glass jar, it has no rival that I've used before! I want every product May crafts now and am looking forward to adding to my collection! The portions of these potions are VERY generous and I feel the cost absolutely is represented in the ingredients and amount I received.Delicious and decadent skincare at it's finest!

Worth Every Penny

I wanted to buy the Problem Solver because I had heard great things about it from a friend and my skin needed a bit of focused attention. Luckily, the Problem Solver was only available as part of this collection at the time I "needed" it. I have no patience and did not want to wait so I splurged on this set and I am so happy I did! While the Problem Solver is amazing on it's own, I mix it with the Honey mud and a bit of water a few times a week for a decadent treat that leaves my face bright and poreless looking. And I follow it with the magical Blue Cocoon which not only smells like heaven but glides onto my skin and hydrates better then any other moisturizer I have ever used. It is heaven in a black jar.

Great Discovery

To be honest, I bought this because I wanted the Problem Solver and Blue Cocoon and they were out of stock. I am very impatient so I bought the set. The Problem Solver was not as good as I expected (Glam Glow works better for me on my hormonal breakouts but I am always looking for something better) but Blue Cocoon exceeded my expectations. It smells warm and inviting and literally melts into your clean skin. It's also great for a facial and I rub a bit on my temples when I feel a tension headache starting and it relaxes me. It is very hydrating. The unexpected surprise in this was set was the Honey Mask. I don't like the smell of honey and thought this product would be a sticky smelly mess but it smelled lovely and it super hydrating. I mix a bit of it with the Problem Solver and I get a nice mask (sometimes I have to dilute with a little water to thin it out). I finish with Blue Cocoon and rub the leftovers into my cuticles. The only product that is a complete waste of money (sorry May Lindstrom) is the application brush. The quality is poor and after 2 uses I couldn't get the caked in product out of the bristles so I chucked it and I use a tongue depresser to mix up the magic and spread it on my face.

New holy Grail

I fell in love with the blue cocoon immediately. When using the problem solver I did 1tbsp problem solver 1/2 tbsp water and 1/2 honey mud. I saw instant results and feel in love so hard, I'd easily give up just about all other skin care. Her products smell very spicy. Like strongly of clove, anise, cinnamon, that sort of thing. I absolutely love it but if you're sensitive to smells you might not. Honey mud though smells straight up like chocolate pudding <3

I'm in LOVE

I can't even explain how much I love these products. The blue cocoon is my favorite item hands down. I will NEVER be without this! I use it morning and evening and I actually look forward to it each time. I run a small pea size in my hands to warm it and then breath in the scent and pat it on my face and neck. The smell is intoxicating..and at night it calms me since it has oils that are used to induce relation and calm. Just make sure you get this item- TRUST ME! Then the two masks..WOW! The honey mud is AMAZING. The smell..oh my gosh..a mix of cocoa & vanilla icing.you just have to have this. Lastly, the problem solver..well it's my weekly treat..bye bye pores is all I can say! I have had 3 people ask me what I've been doing because my skin looks amazing..to me that makes it all worth it!

Luxury skincare indeed

Besides the gorgeous packaging that you receive it in, it's beyond calming and satisfies your skin needs. It's now a definite must have for me, I will repurchase when I'm close to running out.. Which shouldn't be for a while, I've made quite a few masks and haven't even made a dent. Loved the brand so much, I placed another order for the clean dirt and bowl. Soon I'll finish the collection
