Suki Punch

After using up most of my Eminence arsenal, I figured I would give more Suki products a shot. As always I am battling breakouts and thought I'd try the Pure Facial Moisture Balancing product as my daily and nightly moisturizer, along with Suki's Balancing Toner prior to application of the Pure Facial Moisture Balancing. I used this product months ago as my night time treatment but put it aside and to be honest, it got lost in the mess of what is my product closet. Yes, I said closet, not cabinet. I am definately a product fiend and much to my husband's dismay, I overrun our bathroom linen closet with thousands of products. But we got a new shipment of Suki products in at work and I thought I'd give it another try. I purchased another Balancing Day Toner (which I absolutely LOVE) and took a couple samples of a new product called Bio Targeted Purifying Serum that also has the 15% white willow extract in it. After cleansing my skin, I follow with a couple squirts of Balancing Day Toner on a cotton pad and do a nice once around on my entire face. The first couple days I used my samples of the Bio Targeted Purifying Serum after the toner, before the application of the Pure Facial Moisture Balancing product, and I have to say, it packs a mega purifying punch. My hormonal area breakouts cleared up in a matter of days (3-5). I have reviewed the Pure Facial Moisture Balancing product before because it is a little unsettling to use at first. It's a oil based product and dispenses with an eye dropper. Even though I know that all moisturizing creams are a mixture of oil and water, it still makes you second guess if you should do it if you are breakout prone. I will tell you what though, I am a believer now. I will admit it has taken my skin about a month of this dedicated Suki only regimine to balance out into the beauty that it is now. After using a 15% white willow toner and serum, I started to unclog and resurface my skin, revealing and opening my pores. For the first couple weeks I felt my blackheads were more prominent but in fact these products were clearing up the dead dry layer that was trapping these suckers!! I exfoliated with a sample of the exfoliate foaming cleanser then followed with a good extraction session. I can't believe the difference now a month later in my congestion status. I have NO active pustules and my blackheads have improved significantly. Dare I say it, never has my skin responded like this even to my beloved Eminence daily Products. I will admit, that the Eminence Masques are unbeatable but I may be a new rave reviewer on the Suki Products for daily care. I use only two drops of the Pure Moisture Balancing and it covers my entire face. My mineral makeup glides right on after my morning application and I feel sets it even better that my Eminence Eight Greens did!

So now let's break down what is in this Pure Facial Moisture Balancing product. First off, it is what it says....It is a PURE, breathable, normalizing oil concentrate. It's very simple and pure in the ingredient list.
The list is as followed:

 simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil, vitis vinifera (grape) seed oil, helianthus annuus (sunflower) oil, oryza sativa (rice) bran oil, borago officinalis (borage) seed oil, corylus avellana (hazelnut) seed oil, anthemis nobilis (chamomile) flower oil, lavendula angustifolia (lavender) flower extract, tocopherols mixed (vitamin e), calendula officinalis (calendula) flower extract, chamomilla recutita (matricaria) extract & squalene, echinacea purpurea (echinacea) extract, lavendula angustifolia (lavender) oil, matricaria chamomile (chamomile) oil, *aroma/fragrance, linalool *component of 100% pure essential oils

Your skin is made up of oil. Over stripping and drying out the skin causes it to overproduce oil in response. Using Pure Facial Moisture Balancing actually normalizes oily skin because it has the right blend of sebum / skin mimicking properties. It's a calming, soothing antibacterial oil based product that absorbs quickly and does not leave the skin greasy at all. It has a nice light lavender scent and does not over power your senses. I love this product and with the help of the other Suki Products I have been using along with it, I have seen some amazing results.
