Arbonne RE9 Advanced Set - First Impressions
A friend decided she wanted to become an Arbonne consultant, she had been using the products for over 12 months and was pleased with the results. Her skin is quite dry, fine lines were appearing and I have to say I saw positive results for her too, but I was still skeptical. I have the opposite issue with my skin, my skin is quite oily and a little bit acne prone (I touch my face too much). My main issues are enlarged pores, black heads and the oily finish that makes me look plastic.
If you don't know anything about the company here is a quick introduction: Arbonne is an international company developed in Switzerland in 1975 and released in the United States in 1980. Since then it has been released in numerous countries around the world.
On their website it declares "At Arbonne, we are all about being green — always have been and always will be."
RE9 Advanced Set
"A comprehensive anti-ageing skin care regime for a youthful appearance. The set offers six products for face, with Restorative Day Crème SPF 15 "
I attended her event. The thing that swayed me was the promise that this will balance out the PH levels of all skin types. Challenge accepted I say.
I have been told it can be returned for a full refund (minus shipping) if I'm not satisfied with the product within 45 days.
The price was not fun. I paid $360 for The RE9 kit. Ouch and that was on special. The full cost is around $464 (as listed on their website) ...Double Ouch!
I have read multiple reviews for and against Arbonne. If you have used please comment and let me know your thoughts. *Please comment on the products not the experience with the consultants*
I have been using the products continuously for a month and am liking the results. Less puffiness around the eyes, my skin has tightened up a little and I have no lines (not that I had many before). The only con I have found is I think the moisturizer is too oily for my skin so I might substitute Innoxia's - Shine Free moisturizer instead. Unfortunately it hasn't done anything for my pores so I think I need something to target that area, maybe Estee Lauder's Pore minimizer.
