Welcome to Terasita Skin Care
Why Choose Terasita Skin Care?
At a time when we are all struggling with higher food and gasoline bills, price matters! Terasita Skin Care offers quality products at reasonable and affordable prices. Many other companies charge two or three times what we do for similar products that contain the same ingredients. For example, our Retinage .1% retinol serum that is $24.95, is exactly the same retinol serum that is sold by Platinum Skin Care for $69.95 (see their Retinol Molecular Serum 10). At Terasita Skin Care, you will always get more for your money!
Customer Testimonial
This is a letter we received from a customer on January 7, 2009. She has given us permission to publish it.
I just wanted to take a few minutes and say thank you for your fantastic products. I received my first ever order just before Christmas, and found the shipping to Quebec very fast!! I started using everything the next day and have been every day for 3 weeks now (Going, Going, Gone twice a day with Degrease in morning, C-Ret twice a day, 30% Glycolic Cream at night & Renacol spot treatments twice a day). I also bought the 30% Glycolic Acid peel, but I haven't tried it yet because I'm having such success with the other products, and I know I have to stop the C-Ret and 30% Glycolic cream before I do.
Also, so you can understand the impact this has made, I'll give you a bit of my skincare background, which is long, but I want to give you the history of just how many products I've tried unsuccessfully over the last 15 years.
I've never been one to spend lots of money on cosmetics or skin care products, I don't collect them or enjoy trying tons of them. I prefer to keep my routines as simple as possible, the products with little to no fragrance with as few additives as possible, and when I find something that works I stick with it! I'm 36 having suffered as long as I can remember from oily skin (especially the t-zone), blackheads, large pores, shiny skin by mid-morning, sensitive skin, and more recently parchment like skin/beginning crows feet around my eyes. I also work for a company that is a supplier to the fashion retail industry, so I feel it's important to always look well groomed so to speak. Most women I deal with look like they just stepped out of a salon and yep, most have fantastic skin. Years ago I tried just about every department store brand, all of which had overwhelming fragrances and caused me breakouts and rashes. I tried simple drug store brands including Olay which also had strong fragrances and either caused breakouts, rashes or were ineffective. I used Philosophy's Makeup Optional skin kits for about a year, but I was shocked when I found my skin was worse with more frequent breakouts, bigger blackheads and oil. Then one day I went for a glycolic acid peel at my salon, which was great just too expensive to do frequently, and was recommended an expensive line from France by Institute Esthederm Paris. I liked their products, but while my skin did calm down and become less oily, I never saw a major improvement in clarity or blackheads. Not to mention each item was at least $100! I'm so happy I chanced upon a discussion on the QVC boards about your products and decided to try them.
At first I admit I was nervous because my skin has been so prone to getting red bumps with many skin care lines (though I do suspect fragrances to be a major factor), and I worried that perhaps the combination of so many glycolic acid products twice a day plus the Renacol and C-Ret would be too much. However I'm happy to say that it has been the opposite! I read where you said not to expect results for weeks or months, but honestly I saw results from the first few days. After 3 weeks, here is the list of results I have so far:
- since the first 2 days my skin looks and FEELS perfectly smooth and soft, so much more than it ever has before, especially my forehead which always had little bumps.
- the pores on my nose were always large and visible with tiny blackheads, now they are almost all invisible, very few black spots remain and my nose looks incredibly smooth.
- the skin around my eyes is softer and smooth, the parchment look is completely gone, the beginning crows feet are less obvious, and undereye skin colour is completely even to the point I don't need concealer anymore.
- the colour of the skin on my entire face is now almost completely even, also something I've never had before.
- my mineral makeup goes on so evenly now that my skin looks flawless and has a healthy glow. Also I find I'm using less of it because the Degrease is a great makeup base and there is less to cover and even out, so it looks more natural.
- my skin does still get shiny, but now it's by mid-afternoon; a big improvement over my usual mid-morning shine, and because my skin looks so healthy it doesn't bother me like it used to.
- I haven't had any breakouts, rashes, new blackheads or reactions.
- It takes me 10 mins max twice a day to do this routine, which makes it so easy and convenient to do!
- LOVE the feel and smell of the Glysa Clear face wash!
- my husband and coworkers have all commented on how great my skin looks.
Over the years, I would often look at the estheticians in the Salon or girls at makeup counters and see how incredibly flawless their skin looked. Each one of them appeared to me to have model perfect skin with a healthy glow, and even though some of them did have some shine, they still looked amazing. I have longed for that all my life, but assumed that it was the result of endless peels and facials, something the average person can't easily do. However, I look in the mirror now and almost can't believe it. I feel like I have achieved that now, thanks to you.
Again, I'm apologize for going on so long! I just wanted to convey to you the lifelong struggle I've had with my skin, and the endless disappointments I've had with so many popular and expensive products, so you know how amazing this transformation is for me. I can't thank you enough!!
Sincerely,
Melanie Parkinson
