I decided to try out First Aid Beauty because I have very sensitive skin on my face with some problematic spots with eczema. I have to be very careful about what products I use as even those labeled as hypoallergenic can cause me to react.
Ultra Repair Cream:
I find that the Ultra Repair cream works very nicely and is in a great package size. My skin is always left feeling very smooth and well hydrated after using. I think that the consistency and appearance is probably most close to Cetaphil. It is unscented, so the only scents are the natural smells of the ingredients used to make the product which smells sort of medicinal. Overall I think it's great value for money and would recommend to anybody having difficulty finding a suitable and safe face lotion.
Facial Radiance Pads:
I don't mind these but I do find them a bit harsh on my skin. I think they would be suitable to someone who has more naturally oily skin or wants something that will give a bit of a deeper clean. The pads do have more of a scrubbing texture and personally I don't like it as I find it feels too scratchy. I also feel like my skin is dried out after using these, so they definitely need to be used as part of a regimen where you tone and apply lotion afterwards.
Face Cleanser:
The cleanser is good, I feel nice and clean afterwards when using a cleansing brush. I don't find the product foams up very much and sometimes it can be hard to tell if you've used enough. Guess I need bubbles for feedback!
All in all, out of the three I think that the Ultra Repair Cream is the best and I would buy it again, but I might leave the other two behind.
I am in love with this ultra repair cream!! This is the first cream that helps with my eczema and does not irritate my skin. A little pricey, although i will always buy it.
LOVE the ultra repair cream. Its thick and does its job of moisturizing! a bit pricy but not too bad.
I got a sample of the cleanser and it is one of the most effective cleansers I've used. It has a clean soapy smell to it and it removes all traces of makeup and dirt in just a couple minutes. It gets slightly foamy when massaged into the face, and has never irritated my eyes or sensitive skin.
This cleanser is for all skin types including most sensitive. It's a fragrance free gentle cleanser that removes makeup, surface oils, dirt and grime. I love the texture of it, it's a whipped texture that transforms into rich cream when in contact with water. It wont clog pores or aggravate your skin instead it soothes it. It made my skin so soft, moisturized, and theres a lightweight feeling to it also. If you use it daily you should notice results within a week. Also this works perfect with a clarisonic. If you have one I suggest you use it with that. Again it does not clog pores or irritate the skin....no Flare-ups!
This is a great little set - the cleanser is my current go-to because it's gentle yet effective. Importantly, it doesn't strip my skin of its natural oils or moisture but leaves it nice and soft. The Ultra Repair Cream is too rich for my face, but it's nice to leave on overnight for maximum absorption on my body. After trying out a couple different chemical exfoliants, the Radiance Pads have become a new favourite! They don't irritate my skin, they're easy to use, and after consistent use for a few weeks I could see the beginnings of slight changes in skin texture and clarity.
This review is for the ultra repair cream. This is definitely the best cream ever!! WOW! It is so moisturizing that I saw an improving in my face just after 2 utulisations. The texture is just amazing, and the price is not that bad for the amount that you have.
The Ultra Repair Cream is GREAT! It's really moisturizing and really saved my skin this winter. It also never made me break out. The price is good, $15 CAD for the regular size at Sephora. This is now my go to in the winter :)
