Review: Aubrey Organics Natural AHA Fruit Acids Exfoliating Mask and Toning Moisturizer

What They Say: (about the Exfoliating Mask) "Exfoliating mask uses naturally extracted fruit acids to encourage cell turnover and leave skin renewed and refreshed. (Not recommended for active acne.)

• Formulated with bilberry, black currant and citrus fruit acids.
  
• Clears away cellular debris with ground rose hips seeds, apricot seeds and kernels, plus soothing almond meal and oatmeal.
  
• Moisturizes with white camellia, organic Rosa Mosqueta® and other herbal oils.
  
• Excellent care for lackluster skin and fine lines."

(about the Toning Moisturizer) "Unique toning lotion hydrates and gently exfoliates with herbal emollients and naturally extracted fruit acids. (Not recommended for active acne.)

• Helps clear away dead skin cells and debris and firm and smooth the complexion.
  
• Moisturizes dehydrated, dry and lifeless skin with organic Rosa Mosqueta®, white camellia and apricot oils.
  
• Contains natural fruit acids from bilberry, black currant and citrus fruit acids.
  
• Works best with Natural AHA Fruit Acids with Apricot Exfoliation Mask."

Melissa's DeLush Downlow: (For the Exfoliating Mask) This surprised me at first with its thin consistency, and I was kind of skeptical when applying it. However, after rinsing it away I was quite pleased with the results. My skin was incredibly smooth and soft, and I didn't find that this irritated my skin at all, even after several uses. It separates a bit in the bottle, so you definitely need to shake it up before applying and they also recommend storing both of these in the refrigerator after opening.

(For the Toning Moisturizer) According to directions, this was something to typically apply after the exfoliating mask. However, I found that this formula tended to make my skin feel a bit tight, and not incredibly moisturized. It was also VERY thin, almost watery, which I found strange and wasn't too fond of. I just didn't see any sort of a positive effect on my skin to make this worthwhile.

Retail Price: $19.95 each - 4oz (at aubrey-organics.com)

DeLush Ratings:

They also make a moisturizer for combination/oily skin that is wonderful. It's called "Oil Balancing Moisturizer". I just started using it about a month ago and it makes a huge difference in my face's oil production throughout the day.

Keep up the good work ladies, this site is such a Godsend!
