Be The Skin BHA+ Pore Zero Set
I received these products for free from Picky and Be The Skin in exchange for my honest review. The products are:
- BHA + Cleansing Foam
- BHA + Toner
- BHA + Serum
- BHA + Cream
I received these products just days ago 😢 & unfortunately I cannot give a thorough review as 3 days is not enough to see a difference (before due date). I will be giving my first impressions and how I feel about the products after using them twice a day and for 3 days.
*EDIT: it has been a week now and I have not used every product everyday as the cleanser made my skin feel tight and dry. The serum was starting to make my skin feel sensitised.
1. Cleanser & Claims:
- Removes dead skin cells, makeup residue, clogged pores & blackhead without irritation
- Thoroughly cleanse & smooth skin while protecting the skin barrier
- Removes greasiness without tightness
- Keep skin moist & comfortable after washing
Thoughts 💭:
Strong woody scent hits you when applied. Will not appeal to those who are not used to woody or medicinal smell in their skincare routine. Felt a bit stripping on my skin after cleansing. Foams easily but unfortunately has fragrance (last ingredient on the list). I would prefer not to have any fragrance however, this did not irritate my skin or cause me to have redness but felt tight and dry.
2. Toner & Claims:
- Gentle toner
- Calms irritated or troubled skin
- 85% naturally derived Willow-BHA to smooth skin
- Clears pores and gets rid of excess sebum and dead skin cells
Thoughts 💭:
Simple and straightforward product. Didn’t wow or disappoint me. Does not have fragrance but has natural scent of willow bark extract. Does contain alcohol. On the whole, it was an average product.
3. Serum & Claims:
- Helps with troubled and rough skin, excess sebum & clogged pores
- Smoothen skin, clear pores while soothe sensitised skin
Thoughts 💭:
Has a medicinal / woody scent. Has fragrance (middle of the ingredient list) and would prefer if they not add it in the serum. The first few days, my skin was alright with it but slowly began to feel sensitised and have small breakouts.
4. Cream & Claims:
- Wrinkle improvement & brightening function
- Intensively cares for dark spots
- Prevent dark spots, blemishes & fine lines from appearing
- Lifting & strengthening skin
Thoughts 💭:
My favourite of the 4. Easy to apply and absorbs well into my skin. Not sure if it will prevent dark spots or fine lines but will continue to use & see if it does what it claims. The down side is that it has fragrance (at the bottom of the ingredient list). It did make my skin feel soft.
Final thoughts:
I wished the company took out the fragrance in their products. The scent can be too overpowering for some people. If I had to repurchase any of them, it would be the cream. I am curious to see if the claims are true.
