WOW

I bought this for the Deep Moisture Cleansing Balm, Active Hydration Vitamin C+ Antioxidant Serum, Calming Force Clear Skin Serum, and Precious Oils Active Infusion. I actually bought full size bottles of both serums and the oil in addition to the trial kit because I had so much faith I would love these products. The other products I couldn’t test due to essential oils. I have not been disappointed. I started using the products during the time of the month when my skin tends to be irritated, inflamed, and breaking out due to hormones. I don’t even recognize my skin. The few spot that did pop up have been small and have gone away in a few days with the help of the serums. My skin has not been irritated or inflamed at all. I really think the calming force skin serum is working wonders. Also, I am really enjoying the vitamin c serum. The mix of actives is insanely good (in both serums actually) and I have not experienced any irritation. I tend to have good luck with the vitamin c derivative used. It’s one of the few my skin tolerates. The only product I tried that I didn’t like was the deep moisture cleansing balm. I liked everything except that it doesn’t emulsify in water. I had to use a towel to remove it and it still felt like it was on my skin. If it emulsified and washed away easily, I would definitely buy the full size. I’ve been using them everyday for almost two weeks not and the amount of product in the picture is what I still have left. I use two drops of each product and rosewater face mist from Cocokind between each layer. My skin has been so hydrated and happy :) p.s. I switched products because my previous ones were causing me to breakout around my hairline. The breakouts went away within a week of switching to Activist.

Loving them so far!

My face has been softer, and I would swear that my dark spots have gotten lighter. Even my husband uses the face oil (step4) to moisturize. I especially love that it's good for the environment too. Thank you! I am slowly replacing the sample bottles with the full sizes. They're expensive compared to what I used to by, but worth it!

Gift card

I just received my trial & travel kit. I have not only used the products this morning so I can’t give a review up to this point. But, I noticed that you are giving a $25 gift card which I didn’t receive. I will give a review if the products once I have used them on a regular basis.

Hi Sandy, thank you for your review! I tried to find your order so that I could check on your gift card, but cannot find anything under this email address. Did you perhaps place it under a different email address or use your phone number instead? Please let me know so we can figure this out.

Many thanks,
Allison
