NEW Biore Skin Preservation Collection ~ Updated

[beachmamaof2]

Thanks to CM & Biore!  I'm so happy to have recieved products to sample and report back on!  Love to share my big-mouthed opinion ya know! LOL

Here is what I received:
 

I'm 32 and have had my fair share of unprotected fun in the sun; I also like to smile big and often; so have those laugh lines starting around the eyes...ugh...

I used to buy (and love) the cleansing cloths that Biore sells; but they were just too much of a luxury in this $$ times! -- And trust me when I say I buy all my products on sale or I go without until they are...

Thanks for the goodies CM & Biore!! 

 

Assignment #1 - Previous Regimen
1.) washing with Dove soap
2.) a whatever's cheapest toner (wish I'd gotten a sample of that!; *hint,hint* lol)
2a.) Twice a week; St. Ives Apricot Scrub
3.) Specific Eye Cream - Garnier Nutritioniste
4.) Specific Fine Line Cream - Garnier Nutritioniste
5.) Night-All over firming cream - Olay or Garnier Nutritioniste

 

Assignment #2 - Inital Use
Ok; I want to point out a few things; then I'll give my overall opinion...

1.) The scrub might have fine particles but it feels a little like sandpaper and surprisingly a little harser than St. Ives Apricot Scrub!  Oh and it stings/tingles just slightly when I'm done and I don't have sensitive skin; generally...it's not bad but enough that I thought I'd mention it...but I do like the softness of my skin afterwards...

2.) The boxes state something along the lines of the product being lightweight without any greasy feel; etc...true with the exception of the night cream.  Most night creams are a little bit heavier than their day counterparts; but for me; I can still feel this cream on my face longer than others. 

After using the products for just about a week; overall I'm pleased with them thus far.  The first morning after I'd used the regimine the night before and then again in the AM; I noticed a slight improvement; perhaps just from the extra moisture; but still something better than nothing =)  Hopefully by the time I come back to report Assignment #3; I'll have even more to report!

Assignment #3 - Prolonged Use
I was still noticing more "bumps" (clogged pores) - now IDK if some of you are adjusting to the night creme or not but I do not seem to be - so I will likely switch back to my old night creme.

That being said I LOVE the rest of the products.  The scrub while a little tingely after use really seems to make my skin feel much smoother/softer.

As for wrinkle reduction I haven't really noticed much but I don't have much to change yet; some minor laugh lines/crows feet and some deep creases in my forhead (that no lotion is gonna help! LOL) - so I'm working on preventitive =)

Assuming when I go to the store these items are priced similarly to what I was previously using I would happily buy these from now on!
