Also forgot there was a Macadamia sample kit inside.

| New packaging for Test Tube!! |
This kind of packaging seems much more sturdier,so maybe this is better?
*So far I have had the chance to try the Mirai purifying body wash. The body wash comes in a kind of airless pump and is a very nice sturdy looking container.
The body wash is quite thin in texture and has a very light citrus grapefruit smell-I think anyone who does not like strong scents would like this product.
The body wash did foam nicely and left my skin nicely moisturized.
There are so many soaps I have tried that leave your skin feeling tight and dry and this one did not.
The size of the body wash is 150ml and retails for around $20, but if you go to the Mirai website they sell some travel size body wash and body serum for a very good price and those would be good for a trial and your gym bag.
The only minus I can see is the pump itself is kind of heavy if you have to carry it around.
Also this product works best with a bath puff or else you use up too much product.
So has anyone else tried anything from the Mirai line??
*I also sampled the Immunocologie treatment cream Venomax.
The jar in the Test Tube is 15ml (quite decent for such an expensive product).Full size jar is $275!
From looking at the Immunocologie website the cream looks like it is very good and has a lot of exotic ingredients.
I tried a bit on my skin as it is very dry from winter and my skin did feel very moisturizes right away and quite refreshed. But I have not used this product long enough to determine how it will work for me yet.
The only minus I see is that there is no size listed for the jar on Immunocologie's website and not sure how many people want to pay $275 and GUESS? how much product you might get.
Now is the jar 30ml,45ml,50ml,60 or 75ml- there is no "standard" size for jars of cosmetics yet,so this info is always helpful to know.
Cool.. Never heard of this before..
ReplyDeleteThere is also a new box out in Canada called

I see that you are from Ottawa, where did you get the test tube? I'm from Canada too and always think that this tube is Us only. Please share... :-)
ReplyDeleteI get the Test Tube from the US- my parents live there half the year.
DeleteBut you do need a US billing address, so I changed one of my credit cards to their US based address and that works for me.
I can only check my statement online now though.
But if you really want a Test Tube you can also use some parcel forwarding services where you pay a fee to have any item from the US sent here.
I have not done that in a few years,but know people who do that and seems to work well.
Thank you for your answer. That explain everything.
DeleteHi,
