It's FriYay!!
Today, I'm just posting my first impression on the Arbonne product "RE9 Advanced Skin care set". I received it yesterday but I was down with migraine..so I just opened the box, but haven't tried the products yet. Anyways still over the moon when I received the products yesterday.. even with that throbbing pain in my head I managed to take photos(& a crappy unfocused video) of unboxing the products 😊
Ok, so the first I've tried was the infamous RE9 Advanced skin care set. I was actually keen on buying the brightening set, but it is currently out of stock.
Here's the picture of my RE9 set:
L-R: eye cream, facial cleanser, toner, serum, moisturizer and renewal serum
The packaging is sleek, the design is classy, in an old kinda'v way hehehe.. maybe I'm not just into those classy old rose/ beige kind of designs (I love the packaging of sensitive skin care set tho' 😉)
Just like any other skin care, I started with the cleanser, it is in a pump bottle, one pump is all it takes. The formula is a bit creamy, that I suddenly have to take a look at the bottle again for the directions, checking if it needs to be rinsed off with water cause it felt like cream cleanser that you just wipe off, before it hits me that I put it on a towel-dried face 😅 saaahreeeeh! (Later I'll try to use it on a wet/damp face to check if it is foamy or what)
Next stop, toner. It is in a mist spray bottle! It's a plus for me, cause I don't really use cotton whenever I put toner on my face, I just directly put it on my palm and pat it to my face. (that's because I use double cleansing, so I don't need cotton to check for dirt.. hehehe way too many words)
So with this, I just spritz here and there and tap it gently on my face.
Then the facial serum, the texture is same as those Korean serum I've tried before, it is not greasy and very smooth. The difference is it absorbs quicker and disappears to the skin faster. With the other serum I've tried, I usually wait around a minute to allow it to fully absorb in my skin, before putting on my moisturizer. I would say, it is comparable to the lamer and skII (sampler hahaha) that I've tried before. I just use one pump and it covers my entire face.
Eye cream, some uses eye cream first before serum, but for me I use serum first, just to buy time for the serum to work its way onto my skin while applying the eye cream. Well, the eye cream really moisturizes my under eye, without that thick, sticky feeling.
Last, the moisturizer, it has a creamy texture, maybe because I tried the extra moisture restorative cream, I have normal to dry skin and my skin tends to get really dry specially on cold season, that is why i love moisturizers. This moisturizer is creamy and thick, after putting it on, but the tacky feel goes away after a few minutes, so it's good for me.
This is just my first impression, and not a review, I just tried it once and will continue to use it and hopefully it delivers what it says it does:
-improves skin's firmness, elasticity and tone
-minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
-improve skin hydration
-skin visibly rejuvenated and younger
I'll be back to check the improvement after 30 days.😄
