♡ Michael Todd Combination Skin Kit Review

I bought this kit online probably about a month ago. I'm always seeing people on YouTube say such good things about it so i figured i'd give it a try. As I've said in other posts, i do have combination skin. It gets oily but then i have those annoying dry patches & redness. Now I obviously know everyone has different skin, maybe this product does work on other peoples, but i haven't seen a BIG difference in mine. The kit i bought on the website for $33, [it's originally $66.]

It comes with 5 items- you have your cleanser,toner,scrub,face mask & lotion. Here is what everything is in detail, from the website:

(1) Cleanse: CLEANSE AND TONE cleanse | tone | remove makeup – 50 ml / 1.7 fl oz

A multi-function facial cleanser-toner-makeup remover that cleans deeply to remove impurities while also toning the skin. Highly absorbent Charcoal penetrates deep into pores to gently remove dirt, oil and other impurities without the drying effects of alcohol. Antioxidant Vitamins together with organic teas and essential oils help fight environmental stressors. Rinses thoroughly without residue leaving skin feeling clean, soft and smooth. Prepares the skin for serums and moisturizer.

(2) Tone: ORGANIC LEMON aha+dmae toner – 50 ml / 1.7 fl oz

A refreshing toner with the aroma of fresh lemons. Blended with DMAE and Alpha Hydroxy Acid to firm, lift and tighten the skin while easing away the appearance of fine lines, blotches and discolorations for more vibrant, even-toned radiant looking skin. Contains black willow tree extract recognized for thousands of years for its healing power and fresh, warm, spicy tea tree oil a powerful immune stimulant to help fight infections and promote clear skin. Maintains the skin’s proper pH without the drying effects of alcohol. Prepares skin for serums and moisturizers.

(3) Scrub: JOJOBA CHARCOAL facial scrub – 40 ml / 1.3 floz  

Unique facial scrub formulated using the powers of Jojoba Wax Beads and Activated Charcoal to effectively remove dead skin, impurities and toxins. Gentle enough for sensitive and acne prone skin types. Jojoba Wax Beads provide gentle exfoliation without leaving microlacerations on delicate skin. Highly absorbent Activated Charcoal penetrates deeply into pores to draw out impurities and toxins. Refines texture and encourages skin renewal, leaving skin smooth and refreshed.

(4) Hydrate: CITRUS CREAM MOISTURIZER with dmae and hyaluronic acid – 40 ml / 1.3 floz 

Light, soothing hydrating cream moisturizer infused with essential oils of sweet and mandarin oranges, tangerines, lemons and limes. DMAE firms skin, and improves fine lines and wrinkles. Hyaluronic Acid (a humectant) attracts moisture to the skin restoring the skin’s optimal moisture balance. Skin is left feeling moist, smooth and younger looking all day.

(5) Treat: PUMPKIN nutrient-rich facial mask – 40 ml / 1.3 floz 

Rejuvenating facial treatment which uses nutrient-rich Pumpkin blended with Glycolic Acid. Contains high concentrations ofProteolytic enzymes, anti-oxidant beta carotene and over 100 other essential vitamins, minerals, phytosterols and fatty acids. Exfoliates to remove dead skin, impurities and toxins, moisturizes and firms, improves elasticity and pliability of the skin, unclogs pores allowing skin to breathe and facilitates movement of skin oils. Adds brightness and radiance to the skin and significantly improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

I usually the cleanse, toner & moisturizer daily, and the pumpkin face mask - probably about once every 2 weeks, and i don't use the face scrub that often. I have noticed that my skin is..i guess you can say more balanced? When I would wear makeup my dry patches became more noticeable - then the day goes on and of course i get really oily, so I think in some ways It has helped. However, in my head i thought using organic face products would maybeee help with some of the redness, but it really hasn't helped my complexion/acne at all. I think this is a great product to invest in if you do have combination skin and you are looking to balance it out:)

xox,
