Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Skincare Review

In a few days I will be heading to a sunny destination which means UV exposure, junk food, chlorine, salt water, late nights and maybe a little jet lag. To prepare my skin for the journey, I’ve started a new skincare routine with Arbonne’s RE9 Advanced Prepwork Collection. The products are formulated with a nutritious blend of extracts, botanicals and oils that deep cleanse, protect, hydrate, correct and revitalize to promote a healthy complexion.

The Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Cleansing Polish ($32.00) is a refreshing superfood cocktail infused with:

*Pea protein and antioxidants to moisturize firm and support elasticity.

*Raspberry ceramide - loaded with omega oils and vitamin E.

*Sunflower and apple extract to nourish and repair.

*Crushed lingonberry powder and apricot seed to remove daily impurities, oil, makeup, blackheads and dirt without stripping essential moisture.

As you rid the pores of blemish causing bacteria and buff away rough surface cells, skin looks bright, smooth and radiant with no residue. I am a bit sensitive to exfoliants so I prefer to use the cleanser every other day or at least 3 times per week. The granules are small and gentle to prevent irritation and prepare the skin to efficiently absorb cream, oil or serum.

I never leave the home without proper sun protection and the Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Soft Focus Veil Broad Spectrum SPF 30 ($44.00) is my first line of defense against UV, photo damage and premature wrinkles. The light, breathable formula creates a soft filtered effect to blur the look of lines and pores (similar to a primer) while the natural-looking mineral tint blends seamlessly. I was told by a Dermatologist that tinted sunscreens are most effective because they shield against all types of light and the flesh tone shades don’t leave behind a white film. This formula is particularly good because it feels comfortable, mattifies to prevent greasiness, compliments a wide variety of skin tones and works well under makeup.

We’ve all had sleepless nights and stressful days which is why you should always have a good eye mask among your arsenal of beauty tools. In my experience, eye masks actually brighten and rejuvenate the skin faster than daily creams for a quick pick-me-up when I need it most.

The Arbonne RE9 Advanced Prepwork Gel Masks ($50.00) are awesome because there are 60 in each jar! I keep them in the fridge for an extra blast of coolness and the soft gels are thoroughly soaked in a solution of Vitamin C, strawberry, blackberry, acai, cranberry, blueberry, caffeine and Vitamin B3. The ultra-nourishing serum helps reduce the look of fatigue, lines, dark circles and puffiness so you appear well rested and alert (even when you aren’t). I pop these on right before a big event and they work wonders after a long flight or busy day.

Arbonne's RE9 Advanced Prepwork Hydrating Dew Cream ($46.00) is a great daily moisturizer that eradicates dryness while mattifying, smoothing and softening. Like the other products in this line, it contains an abundance of seed extracts, fruit, omega oils, antioxidants, vitamins and ceramide to fortify the lipid barrier, improve texture, boost radiance and deeply condition. The fast absorbing formula is lightweight and supple with no greasiness or heavy scent. Use it under sunscreen for an extra layer of hydration.
