Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Face Cream

I love the Fresh brand and I needed a new moisturizer, so I decided to give this a try.  The moisturizer is formulated with Fresh’s “Super 7 Complex”,  that promises to prevent signs of aging, boost radiance, improve elasticity and improve moisture in skin. I wasn’t pleased with the scent, it smells like pickles or maybe I got a bad batch. The face cream was a bit greasy but it does absorbs very easily.  My face did feel radiant and moisturized but I still couldn’t get over the scent. I am not quite in love with this face cream, so I don’t I will get this again.

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15

I bought the holiday set for these mini lip balms and finally got around to using one. I love the Fresh brand and I heard a lot of good things about these lip treatments, so I figured I should give them a try. This is a hydrating treatment that nourishes, protects, and plumps the lips. Unlike the other treatments this lip balm goes on clear.  The lip balm is packed with reparative oils, waxes, real sugar, black currant oil, grapeseed polyphenols, Vitamins A, C, and E. It is formulated without parabens, sulfates, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals, phthalates, GMOs, triclosan, lanolin, petroleum and mineral oil.The lip treatment made my feel buttery soft and my lips had a sweet taste to it. The one thing I hate about this lip treatment is that the stick is too thin that it broke after a couple uses. I might buy the full size version as I did like the product but I was annoyed that the lip balm broke so quickly.

Nu – Pore : Fresh Aloe Collagen Essence Mask

I love using a weekly facial mask. My friend raves about this mask and gave me one for Christmas. I can see why she loves it. The premoistened mask can be used three ways a] on a warm day, you can stick it in the fridge b] on cold day, you can submerge the packet in hot water c] or the lazy person way [I did it this way], by just opening the packet and using it.  When I first removed the mask, my face felt tight, but it slowly went away and my skin felt soft and smooth. The mask is packed with vitamin E, Collagen and aloe.

Ole Henriksen Fresh Lips SPF 15

As a fan of Ole Henriksen and in the market for a lip gloss with SPF, I decided to give this a try. I was quite disappointed with this gloss. It had a medical [camphor and menthol] smell and tastes horrible [yes, I know you are not supposed to eat it]. The only good thing about this gloss was that it is not sticky. It did not last very long nor did the little hydration it provided.  The product claims to have a plumping effect but I have not noticed it. I think I will stick to my usual spf lip balm for the time being.
