I
bought this travel size trio a couple of months ago as a good way to try First
Aid Beauty. Not only was it a good way to try out FAB (First Aid Beauty) but a
good way to try each product without having to commit to the larger size (and
it helped my wallet). My skin is very oily, not to mention sensitive and
I have Rosacea (ugh), so I have to be very cautions on what I put on my skin. I
heard rave reviews on YouTube on the facial cleaner as well the Ultra Repair
Cream. I read on Sephora.com that people who suffered from Rosacea recommend
it, even more of a reason to try it. I’m glad I did.
Facial
Cleanser (2oz) // This distributes as a cream. If you’ve ever tried Burt Bees
Sensitive Facial Wash, it’s like that but a bit thicker. There isn’t a harsh
smell to it but it does kind of smell like sunscreen. You just need a small
amount for your face. It works great but can dry out your face sometimes (well
it did for me). I used this after my facial wipes just to take off any makeup
still lingering and the best thing of all… its fragrance free.
Ultra
Repair Cream (2 oz) // I applied this product on my face after the cleanser. I
didn’t use it everyday but on days my face was dry. I admit though, sometimes
the product made me itch but nothing intense. I'd probably still use it but not
everyday. The product states you can use it ‘elsewhere’ so I tried it out on my
elbows and it worked pretty well. For whatever reason one of my elbows is drier
than the other (and that part of the skin did not need scratching). The cream
also doesn’t contain any paragons.
Facial
Radiance Pads (28 pads) // They are alcohol free pads that are intended to help
clarify your skin, help with fine lines and reduce pores. I didn’t use this
product everyday and I still don’t. I used this maybe twice a week only because
I’m a bit paranoid. What I can say is that it does have a tingle when you wipe
your face, not a unbearable feeling but a claiming one.
The
larger size is 5 oz. for the Facial Cleaner and can be pretty expensive ($20),
if you use it everyday. A 6 oz. container of the Ultra Repair Cream (the larger
size is in a container) cost $28. The Facial Radiance Pads come with 60 pads
for $30. The trio of all three cost $28 and I purchased mine at Sephora. If I
had to pick one, I would diffidently pick the cleaner. I know it's a bit much
but it works well with my crazy skin. If you can't commit to the price, I suggest
wait for the Sophia VIB Sale. However, if you can't wait till then the trio
would be a great idea to try everything out and did I mention it’s great for
travel.
