Great trial/travel kit!

I have been looking for more sustainable skin care products, and I found Activist through an Internet search. I loved the idea of a trial/travel kit, so I bought it. I tried it out on some recent travels, and I loved the way that my skin felt. I was able to try the different products and combinations of them, figuring out what will work best for me long term. I plan to switch to Activist when my current skincare products run out.

So far so good

The only reason I don’t give 5 stars is cuz I’ve only used for about a week. I like the smells and feels and quality. I’m not allergic which is big. Already I use super high quality nature first products so no difference noted in my skin but it all feels great!
