Arbonne FC5 Complexion Perfecting Set

I received this set just yesterday and have only used all of the included products twice, but love them all so far. My favorites are the Cleanser/Toner and the Day Lotion. The powder is OK and does its job, but I've never been a fan of pressed powders. The trick with this system, as well as other systems by Arbonne, is that a little bit goes a long way. Just a little Cleanser/Toner, just one pump of Day Lotion, and a light dusting of the powder goes a long way! I used all three for the second time this morning, and already notice my skin has a smoother and softer appearance and texture. This morning I used a lot less powder on the puff and it toned down the oil without having the "I just powdered my face" look.

I'm going to continue to use the powder until it's gone and then make a determination whether to continue using that or just the Cleanser/Toner and Day Lotion.

This product line is expensive for me and I was able to obtain 5 sample sets of the Cleanser + Toner as well as the SPF Face Lotion. I did not want to invest a lot of money before I found out whether it was going to work for me.

I am 23 and I have a long history of skin issues, as I have had mild-moderate acne for the past 9 or 10 years. It has always been a hassle for me and I have tried many, many, manymanymanymany products, but nothing has ever worked for my skin. I pretty much accepted the fact that I would always have terrible skin and I would never be able to do anything about it. I felt pretty hopeless. I have combination skin and products made specifically for acne (typically containing Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid) generally dry out my skin and make matters worse. If you are typically aggravated with your skin, trust me: I understand. It has been an ongoing battle with me for 10 years. It can be absolutely exhausting.

Two weeks ago, I began using the FC5 Cleanser + Toner and the SPF Face Lotion. At night, I have been using the Day/Night Creme from the old Intelligence Line (I still have a ton of samples). For the first few days, I had tiny breakouts on my face, but it cleared up within 2 days and I have not had a new breakout since. My face is clearing and my skin is really glowing sometimes. For once, I feel relieved of skin issues and I feel pretty. Happy. The products do a wonderful job of keeping my skin moisturized and balanced, but not oily at all. I feel like FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE, I have normal skin. It's a good feeling.

I am absolutely, positively going to invest in these products when I run out of my samples. A little bit goes a LONG way, so even though t is expensive for me, it seems worth it. This is the first time in my life that I have ever found products that work for my skin.

I only gave this 4 stars because I liked the old line better. Still, this is a great product compared to anything else I have ever used. The powder is really only usefull if you have redness in your skin though. If that is not an issue for you, you may want to consider skipping that item. If you do have redness, it is effective at temporarily reducing that coloring. The products have a refreshing smell and as usual with Arbonne, a little bit goes a long way.

The product smells wonderful and the containers are beautiful. I chose to try this set as I've used unscented Arbonne sensitive skin products in the past and had a lot of success with them.

I found the set to be hydrating and refreshing at first, though I was surprised at how strong the scent was. The first 2 weeks on the regimen my skin seemed to clear up. I followed the directions on each product carefully to ensure that they would work as intendedthis set was a bit more than I was willing to spend and I wanted to make sure I didn't waste the investment! Unfortunately, after those first 2 weeks my skin got more oily, itchy, red, and splotchy. In fact, my skin got so itchy and irritated that I had to stop using it altogether.

My experience could have been an allergic reaction to the fruits or fragrances used in the product, but I won't buy this product again.

Arbonne is a great skin care line. The reason for a 4 is that I think I like the night moisturizer better than the one in this package which is a day lotion, and I just don't use the mattifier/powder all that often. I think I like the RE9 line better. :)
