Product Review: Befine Skincare Sampler

Today I'm doing a review on the very first products I tried from my April Birchbox.  As I mentioned in my last post I LOVE brown sugar so I was happy to see these in my Birchbox this month.  The Befine Skincare Sampler came with three "single serve" Exfoliating Cleanser with Brown Sugar, Sweet Almond & Oats and two "single serve" Daily Moisturizer with SPF 15 with Rosemary, Pomegranate & Rice.  Here is the adorable little box the samples came in:


I love all of the bright colors on this box! 

Product Details:

Where to Buy: You can purchase these products from Befine's website here.  I did not see anywhere else that sold these products.  The good news is I think they are fairly cheap for good quality products, you can get both products full size for $24.00 each for 4 o.z. of the Exfoliating Cleanser and 1.7 o.z. of the Moisterizer.  They also have lots of yummy sounding products that I might just have to try out.  Their website if definitely worth taking a look at. 

My Initial Impression:  Like I said above I loved the packaging for these products, I thought it was colorful and very well done.  I also thought that the names of the products made me excited to try them.

Pros:  The smell of the Exfoliating Cleanser was heavenly!  I did like the smell of the Moisterizer although it was a very muted "clean" smell.  The Exfoliating Cleanser made my face feel so smooth after using it.  I absolutely loved using this product and I used all three packets three days in a row.  The Moisterizer had the consistancy of  light sunblock.  I used one packet of Exfoliating Cleanser for each application but I am still on my fist packet of Moisterizer due to not needing a lot of the Moisterizer with each use.

Cons:  There are very few if any cons to these products.  The only cons I can think of is that I thought it was a little difficult to get the products out of the sample packets, especially the cleanser because it was so thick.  I also learned that very little of the Moisterizer goes a long way, too much and it's a bit greasy. 

Final Impression:  I was very impressed with both of these products and I would definetly consider buying them and making them part of my every day routine.  I would also love to try some of the other products on Befine's website

That's all for now, stay tuned as I review the remaining products from my April Birchbox.

Check out Birchbox's website if you are interested in trying one of your own.
