What is the difference between the GEL with Ilex and one without??

I cannot speak for the one without because I have not tried that one. I can only tell you how good the one with is.

After reading the ingredients on both tubes, they are exactly the same. They both contain ILEX so I have no idea why they have two different tubes.

This is what I found in looking for the answer to your question. Biofreeze uses an herb called Ilex. This herb is extracted from a holly plant in South America and then shipped to Pennsylvania to be made into Biofreeze. Ilex acts as an instant cold application and also helps the gel sink deeper through the skin's layers. http://www.ehow.com/how-does_4679702_biofreeze-work.html

The main difference is that the gel swirl has temperature control so it doesn't get hot in the summer. You can call Sleep Innovations directly for your firmness question. I know they are both about the same firmness. The Sure Temp ships faster. (I'm waiting for my Gel Swirl)

I like both brands. They both perform about the same, Gelish I think lasts slightly longer. I find them both to be about the same to remove. I like the Gelish brushes and the cost better.

Not sure If it's more effective. I just like the gel. It absorbs quickly and works well. I think it's a matter of personal preference. Both work great

I don't think You need to use another product first. But for maintenance you may need to use the gel every six months or so depending on your own habits (food, drink, smoking, etc.) I use the product immediately after my dental cleaning. I do suggest using custom trays versus the one size fits all trays. I like the results I get with this product.

So far as I know, they're the same, just rebranded. (Feliway may be the name they use for the active ingredient/pheromone.) The refills I have save Feliway, but they fit the dispenser that says ComfortZone. I believe the products originally produced by a French company. Maybe this is the branding for the U.S. licensee? (Just speculating.)

I do not think this model does Gel - just Lather. Conair does have models that do both. We have owned both models and this one is far superior! So if you are not firm on Gel this is the better model.

We have both, one with and the other without. they both do the same thing and we dont see any advantage or disadvantage. No problem to clean. Hope this helps !

Hi Lunamar, that's a good question that I don't really know how to answer. I was confused about why there were two whitening gels included as well. I've been using the large syringe, which achieves good whitening results. One of them might be a higher whitening concentration, but I'm not 100% on the difference between the two.

I switch off and on with Smartlash that I get from the Dermstore. I like both products. I did stop using FEG for about six months because it really burns if you get it in your eye and I did not notice a difference in my lashes. However, I was using Smarthlash in its place. I hope this helps.

As far as hold I would say they are very similar. However, I find that the cream leaves less of a gel cast than the gel (which is good on days that I have to leave home with a wet head). In addition to that, I find the cream to be more hydrating than the light defining gel. The cream gives me chinkier curls while the gel often causes me to have skinny/stringy curls. Lastly, the cream and the gel smell differently. If you are familiar with this line, the cream smells like their Set It Free (some describe it as smelling like skitles) while the gel has their signiture (faint) lemongrass smell; it's is a very clean fresh sent. I hope this is helpful. As far as hold I would say they are very similar.

I have never used a gel. The pads are very sticky and I am happy with them sans the gel.

The more expensive one has MSM in it which is for joint health. I use one or the other and cannot see any difference. I decided I'd rather purchase the less expensive one because of that. There doesn't appear to be any difference in the lotion as far as texture or thickness. I get good results from both as far as the magnesium in them. It helps leg cramps at night.

All Biofreeze is with ILEX. ILEX is an inactive ingredient of ALL BIOFREEZE Products. Biofreeze = ILEX. New style bottles just don't say it anymore.

none they are all the same, like shellac and gel, just two diff names for the same thing

No. You need the pads. The gel will prolong life of pads and provide improved contact and current conduction to the body. It did not work for me at all. The contact to skin was same & gel pad replacement is dependent on quantitative use.

I am not 100% sure. I can tell you that my wife uses "one condition" and it is a conditioner. She has been using it for over a year and is happy with the results. Her hair is very long and curly. As a side note, she has tried both the noo poo and low poo, and prefers the low poo for cleaning her hair and then she applies the "one condition" and rinses.
