fresh effects
I have been using this skin care line for a couple months now.
When it comes to skin care, I don't think you can really know your skin's response to a skin care change for a couple months.
Unless you have an allergic reaction, of course.
The only things I haven't tried are the BB creams (which is next on my list) and the brush (which i probably won't use because I don't love the way brushes feel on my skin).
The release I read states that it is design for those in between the teen/acne lines and the mature/aging lines... Which is exactly where I'm at.
I very much so feel that this middle point is severely neglected in the skin care industry.
The line is essentially 2 steps, cleanse and moisturize.
I like all 3 cleansers: the makeup removing wipes do the job without irritating my eyes or skin, the scrub I use once or twice a week to gently exfoliate (I feel like using a combination of chemical and mechanical exfoliation over the course of a week gives the most effective results for my skin), and the shine control cleanser works better than just about anything that I've tried.
The moisturizer claims to leave a satin finish, and I think if I had skin on the more normal or combo range that would be true. It's probably not rich enough for someone with dry skin.
But I am straight up oily, so I mix it with a shine control salicylic acid treatment, and I'm good to go.
I am very interested in trying the BB cream, many BB/CC creams work great as a primer for mineral makeup and mineral makeup is summer oily skin friendly.
I think this line is worth a try if you are in that in between teen and mature skin, because it's easy to add a product that targeted for one or the other or both based on your skin's needs.
