Here I will be giving first impressions of the products that I try, there will also be a post a little later on with some more in depth reviews of products I have had more time to try out so please keep an eye out for that - subscribe to my blog via email if you want to be told when I post new content! I am also planning a few videos using these products which will be on the video review page and will take you to my YouTube channel!
First off I want to give a little bit of information on what Forever Living is and what the benefits are of using them. Forever Living has a huge range of products ranging from Sking Care, weight loss programmes to animal and home products and even make up. Essentially all the products are Aloe Vera based. So, what are the benefits of Aloe Vera you ask - there are many it is Detoxifying, it supports the immune system, it aids good digestion and it is full of vitamins and minerals just to name a few! Okay on with the first impressions!.....
Aloe Jojoba Shampoo and Conditioner
Ok so I only got to use these a couple of times but I am very particular with shampoo and conditioner because my hair is so hard to manage. I have VERY thick hair and it also goes quite frizzy too - these are my main problem areas so I always want to address these. First of all the scent of both is amazing its not over powering at all which I loved. I didn't see a difference in my hair after the first wash, but after the second or third I realised my hair was a lot smoother and very glossy, I am really considering purchasing this product.
Aloe Hand & Face Soap
I used this product myself but I also used it with my 6 year old son, this product again smelt lovely but was quite subtle - it was very gentle on the skin, my son has very dry skin so I think I need to use moisturizer as well because he needs extra (we use aloe vera gel actually). I found it helped with the small amount of dry skin I have on my knuckles because other soaps normally dry my skin out and this didn't. I have to be honest I didn't use this on my face because I use a face wash BUT I did put this on my sons flannel of a night and again it was very gentle on his skin.
Aloe Styling Gel
I did not personally use this product but my son and my partner did. It was great and had good hold, my partner hair is quite long and he really likes a very strong and stiff hold - this was not for him. It was absolutely perfect for my 6 year old, very gentle and natural looking but still held up well during the school day (he loves to copy daddy and have gel in his hair).
Alluring Eyes - Eye Cream
At first I was a little worried about this product because it was quite thick - but as soon as I started to rub it in I found it was easy to work with, a little goes a long way and it sunk in very well. This product is generally used for fine lines and wrinkles which I don't yet have, however, I wanted to test how it felt on my skin and it was not greasy at all which I do find with some creams. Also I felt that it helped the dark circles I have under my eyes (thats what happens when you have kids! ;)....)
Aloe Eye Make Up Remover
I used this product to remove all my make up even though it is meant for eyes, it is quite gentle, I often find that my skin is quite sensitive and that my face goes red and my eyes are sore after I remove my make up. After using this one there was only a slight redness and my eyes were not sore at all, it removed the majority of my make up first time and then I did have to go over it again to get all the make up off, but I don't mind using a little more or taking more time if its gentle on my skin.
Aloe Deep-Cleansing Exfoliator
I used this twice, I loved it! The smell was so subtle, I am not sure what it was that I was smelling but there was a slight citrus scent to it. This exfoliator was very very gentle on the skin, it uses natural jojoba beads which are quite soft but they still get the job done. I break out a lot and get black heads on my face, I use exfoliators to get rid of dirt and dead skin that might cause break outs but I often find them scratchy and too harsh but this was the total opposite. After use my skin felt very soft and smooth.
All the Forever Living Products listed above were good quality, amazing products and I really would recommend them. I have tried others and I am looking to try some more too - I am still trying out some of the products to be able to do a full and more in depth review. The benefits for your health and wellbeing are endless and I think its great to look at alternatives to improve our over all health.
Well guys that is it for the first impressions posts, I did try a couple of other products, however I have not given a first impression because I feel that I did not get a good enough opinion on them due to only using them once. Other products I am trying out to get a more and in depth review for you, these should start in the next few days.
I am inserting some links where you can view the products, buy the products and check out my friend Debbie's site.
