Mario BadescuCombo/Oily Regimen Kit, 5.5 oz.

My face got so oily after using this stuff...after almost a week I stopped washing my face this morning and noticed a significant improvement when NOT using these products...I'm pretty disappointed as this is a "luxury" brand and I thought that meant it would be more effective. Sadly it was a waste of my money...I'll be going back to Elizavecca.

I have oily skin so I was really hoping for a win in this one. I do like the moisturizer, mask and eye cream that comes with but the face wash doesn’t really do much and toner is just like every other toner. For the price I’d buy a store brand toner and face wash.

Learned about this product in 2004 working at Neiman Marcus. At that time Kiel’s and their pineapple scrub was all the rage. This was always classic and unassuming but got great reviews from the make-up artists. Excited to try. I have melanin in my skin so I like to support small black skin-care brands but classics are classics and what’s most important is my skincare.

When I was first making sense out of toners, moisturizer and all of that, I came across this. I recognized the brand from all the sprays that almost everyone has.. it's a great way to try the brand out without buying full size. I'd buy the cleansing lotjon again no doubt. The seaweed night cream sample was way too small so I wouldn't get too hyped about it.

When I received the kit it came with 2 cucumber lotions and no enzyme cleanser. I couldn’t even return it because of the liquid return policy. So I bought the cleanser at a local Ulta. Even so the product itself doesn’t feel like it cleans very well. And it hasn’t helped with my pimples at all.
