Burt's Bees Natural Skin Solutions Follow-Up


About a month and a half ago I wrote about my sensitive skin and current acne issues.
I was excited about trying the Natural Skin Solutions products, and wanted to update you the staus:

I'm hoping it helps clear up my skin problems.

  • Well, this did not happen. My skin is as bad as ever, however I do NOT blame that on the products I tried. They weren't targeted to help clear skin, they are made to be gentle on sensitive skin and they ARE. I was impressed with how clean my skin felt after using the face wash and loved that they were scent-free
I love Burt's Bees® products.  All of their products are free of phthalates, parabens and soduium lauryl sulfate. The Sensitive Skin line contains 99% natural ingredients like cotton (seriously!!), rice and aloe.
Plus, this stuff is less expensive than my normal skincare products so if it works not only will my skin be clearer, but I'll be putting less chemicals onto my body and I'll be saving money!!!
  • I'm also not entirely sure saving money would be the truth. The one thing I didn't like about the products is that I continually squeezed more out than was necessary. I went through the products in less than a month and that isn't typical for me. That would mean I'd need to buy more often, thus likely not saving money. 
I have not ruled out using Burt's Bees Sensitive Skin Care products in the future. I think I really need to focus on getting my skin back to a healthy state, and then introduce this product line. It's hard to find a good, environmentally friendly, sensitive skin care product and this definitely fits the bill! 
Have you tried Burt's Bees Sensitive Skin products? What did you think? If not, what do you use?
