First Aid Beauty: FAB Faves To Go Kit


I have been on the look out for new products to add to my skincare regimen and I found the First Aid Beauty's' FAB Faves To Go" kit while I was browsing in Sephora:


FAB Face Cleanser, FAB Facial Radiance Pads, FAB Ultra Repair Cream

I actually heard of First Aid Beauty even before I bought this set (I've heard a lot of people raving about this brand on YouTube). And I've been wanting to try their products because I heard they really work but are also very affordable, as compared to other high-end skincare products out in the market now. 

This set includes 3 of their bestseller products in mini-size version and only costs a total of $28 (approximately Php1,200.00). I think that's an amazing deal considering how much product you actually get from this set.

I've been using this for about a solid 2 weeks now, so i think i can give a thorough review about these products.



"FAB Face Cleanser (2 oz): This mild, nourishing cleanser is ideal for all skin types. Regular use calms redness and reduces skin reactivity."
This cleanser is very gentle and mild. It leaves my skin feeling silky after each wash. It removes all the make up that's left from my face after I use a makeup cleansing oil. It doesn't have a strong scent but it's not exceptionally pleasant-smelling either. The only downside to this product, I think, is that it doesn't foam as much as I'd like but I guess that's the trade off for it being a mild cleanser.

 "FAB Facial Radiance Pads (28 pads): Brighten, tone and exfoliate in one step. This daily exfoliating treatment contains just the right amount of lactic and glycolic acids to make it safe and effective for daily use."
I'm not sure if it's clear in the picture but the pads have a texture to it. It's probably to ensure that it actually exfoliates the skin. And it definitely makes my skin feel a bit healthier after each pad I use. The only thing that I don't like about this product is that it has a weird scent. I'm not sure if that's really the scent or I just got a bad one. I couldn't have it changed because I only tried using it when I got back to the Philippines.

"FAB Ultra Repair Cream (2 oz): An over-the-counter, super-emollient cream with a spectacular whipped, non-greasy texture that treats severely dry skin, whatever the cause, even eczema"
This has got to be my favorite product from the kit. I use this on my elbows and heels to keep them from getting dry but regularly, I just use this cream as a facial moisturizer. It gives just the right amount of moisture on the face and everywhere else. I used this after coming back from the US and my body was still trying to recover from the dry air. I used this and it instantly felt moisturized and made it heal quickly! 




OVERALL REMARKS:

Overall, I was not WOW-ed by this kit. The only thing I noticed that gave a dramatic change was the Ultra Repair Cream. But other than that, nothing actually did wonders for my skin. Although, these products specifically cater to sensitive and dry skin... I have normal skin and I've no major problems about it. So maybe that's why I didn't really see a big difference. Don't get me wrong, the kit does the job and plus, it doesn't cost a lot! I just wished that First Aid Beauty was sold here in the Philippines so i could try their other products. SO LADIES, if you're in the US, don't miss out on getting yourselves some FAB products!
