GTG Tries It... (Arbonne FC5)

Happy Friday ladies!

Summer is practically here, especially for those of us living in the Magic City. One of the things I strive for the most during this hot and humid weather is great skin.

I don't want my skin to break out and I look for products with sun protection, whether it's in form of  makeup, moisturizers or both.

Today I'm sharing my experience with two amazing Arbonne products: FC5 Nurturing Day Lotion with SPF 20 and the FC5 Moisturizing Night Creme.




Claims:  Rich moisturizer filters UV rays to help prevent sunburn. Leaves skin feeling moisturized and looking more youthful.

Actually: I always put on moisturizer with SPF on my face before leaving the house, even if I don't have time to do much of anything else. I absolutely loved this product. It left my skin feeling protected and looking radiant.

*Note: I used a sample size portion which lasted an entire week. (A little goes a long way.)

Pros: It smells really really good (must be the kiwi extracts) and it's also light.

Cons: It felt greasy on my first application, I think I put on too much, but on the second day I used less and it felt much better. It's a little on the expensive side, but as I always say about products that cost a lot sometimes they're worth it.

Overall Recommendation: This is a great product for savvy girls who are conscious of the health of their skin.


Claims:  Rich moisturizing creme nurtures skin while you sleep, helping to maintain young, beautiful skin.

Actually: This creme kind of works as a hydration system while you sleep. It's absolutely refreshing to put on at night and when you wake up the next day your skin feels smooth and soft.
*Note: I used a sample size portion which lasted about a week.

Pros: Also smells really good, the night creme is made out of mango extracts. Yummy!

Cons: The only bad thing I can say about this product is that it's a bit on the costly side, but it's def worth it.

Overall Recommendation: Go out and buy it!

There's a little science behind why these products made my skin feel and look as good as it did. Here's the 4-1-1:

The technology behind the FC5 skin care line is exclusive to Arbonne. This technology allows for cells to be extracted intactly, which helps the cells retain their original wealth of nutrients resulting in the revitalization of skin.

I want to thank the beautiful Summer Gray for sending me out these wonderful samples, which I will be placing an order for because I absolutely loved what I saw in the mirror.

 Please contact her for all of your Arbonne needs @SummerGrayStyle on Twitter or visit her lovely website.

Until next product, stay beautiful and healthy.
