Trader Joe's Skincare Review

Welcome back to Nia Imani.
Today I am going to talk about the Trader Joe's skincare I hauled. (If you have not seen my Trader Joe's skincare haul from a few weeks back I highly suggest you read that!) This is going to be fairly in depth. I want to be able to chronicle my exact experience for you all. I will start with a brief overview and then move to the lengthier details and last but never least I will summarize my thoughts and let you know if it gets my seal of approval. Cool beans! Let's jump into it!

Would I repurchase it?

1. Face Wash with Tea Tree Oil: No, I would not repurchase this product. Although I really liked it for the first few days I noticed it was leaving my skin feeling extremely sensitive and itchy. I also noticed it burned my eyes way more than any other cleanser I have used on my face.
   
2. Blueberry and Acai Facial Scrub: Yes, I would repurchase this product. I loved this; I still do. I use it often! It smells like he most delicious berry yogurt! My skin feels smooth and soft after every use. I get little to no sensation when I used this product. My only suggestion would be to apply it on the skin allow it to sit for five to ten minutes then scrub the face and rinse it off. The longer the AHAs sit on the skin the better the outcome.
   
3. Nourish Oil-Free Antioxidant Facial Moisturizer: Yes, I would repurchase this product. This has become my holy grail moisturizer. As an oily skinned individual I can testify to how difficult it is to find a decent moisturizer. So many moisturizers can be too thick or too thin or too oily or oddly enough even too drying. Not this moisturizer. It gives me all the hydration I need; it immediately sinks deep into my pores and leave no sticky residue or film behind. My skin feels plump and hydrated the whole day through. 
   

Any Final Thoughts?
All in all these were some awesome products. I loved the price more and I am excited to try more Trader Joe's skincare!
