Sephora Favorites Skin Cleanse To Go

This is a new Sephora Favourites set currently available on the website (HERE) for $22. Now considering the dual cleanse from Glamglow is $21 alone, this is an AMAZING deal. I am making a commitment right now to use one of the two tubes of it I have sitting in my bathroom now tomorrow. If I like it I will pick up this set as its $1 more for the other 3 products. 

Now the other 3 product included are basically free. Or 33 cents each. The Ole Henriksen Grease Relief Cleansing Cloths I have heard a ton about but have never tried. The value of them is $10 and can be purchased on their own as well. The First Aid Beauty Skin Rescue Deep Cleanser With Red Clay has a value of $6.38 and the REN Glycol Lactic Radiance Renewal Mask  a value of $13.20. 

In fact, to be honest, after typing this out, I really want to try the cloths and the mask so I am crazy if I dont pick this up. Decision made. $50.58 value for $22!!!

First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads - Review

When I saw these at Sephora I got really excited! These pads boast a blend of lactic and glycolic acids, two alpha hydroxy acids my skin loves.

That being said, there is no where near enough glycolic or lactic acid for any actual exfoliation, leaving myself basically rubbing a wet somewhat moisturizing but not much else pad on my skin. This was even more frustrating since they are listed as being a facial PEEL on the sephora website. That would lead one to believe there was A LOT of AHAs in them.

According to Sephora's website:

What it is formulated to do:
These Facial Radiance Pads contain just the right amount of lactic and glycolic acids to make them safe and effective for daily use, even for people with reactive skin. Cucumber and Indian gooseberry tone the face, while lemon peel and licorice root leave the skin bright and glowing. First Aid Beauty's facial radiance pads are free of harsh chemicals and colorants.

Now aside from the known irritants such as gooseberry and licorice root, they DONT contain enough lactic or glycolic acid to make them effective and while I managed to use most of the container up, I simply got tired of using something that was making ZERO difference (positively or negatively).

Overall, these were a waste of money for me and I would skip them if I were you.

Sephora Inside JCPenny Cleansing Ritual To Go Favourites Bag!

Why did I get this set? I truly have no idea. I plead temporary insanity. The $16 price tag I guess was too much for me to handle!

Inside comes:

• Boscia Tsubaki Cleansing Oil Gel 30ml/1oz   $7CAD or $5.60 US VALUE  
• Philosophy Mircrodelivery Exfoliating Face Wash 30ml/1oz   $4.13CAD or $3.38 US VALUE  
• First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser 1oz/28.3g   $6CAD or $4.75 US VALUE  
• Peter Thomas Roth Pro Strength 40% Triple Acid Peel 1 4ml dose $9.17CAD or $7.33 US VALUE  

I think the only thing in here I really want to try is the Peter Thomas Roth Acid Peel, and at a $7.33 value, I WAY overpaid for this set. Sigh.......... Oh well, guess I have some little travel sized cleansers to gift!
