ybf Skincare Review

Darrell (from ybf) and I had a battle with the mail trying to get the products to me! Some how they got lost, so he turned to FedEx. Once that happened, it got here fast! And Darrell was so nice about the whole thing. Always adding in little things to make conversation. Something you don't usually get when talking to contacts for reviews.

When the package arrived, my mom was here and we were both eager to see what goodies were in the package. In the package were the 2 main products: prep and defend. And since the mail got all messed up and it took a while to get here, Darrell also threw in their quench lip balm. Here is what I though about all the products:

PREP
Brightening Exfoliant

While Prep's microdermabrasion crystals polish, skin brightening alpha arbutin and niacin help balance uneven pigmentation for a refreshed look and more rested appearance.


Smoothes & Refines
Prep uses vitamins, soothing extracts and moisture binding botanicals to reduce inflammation, balance skin, improve overall tone and suppleness and discourage future blemishes. Prep is also an excellent treatment for men looking to improve the quality of their shaves.


Reduces Wrinkles
Peptides and antioxidants are the stars in Prep, going to work on existing wrinkles while helping to avoid the formation of new ones. Prep is especially effective at reducing wrinkles around the chin, nose and mouth as well as lines across the forehead.

Wow. This stuff is great. Blackheads are wiped away, and my face feels really nice! My face has cleared up and brightened up as well. It doesn't hurt that it smells nice too!

DEFEND
Wrinkle Prevention

Defend is a brilliantly crafted and effective formula with high percentages of ingredients that help you face the daily onslaught of damaging UV, irritants and drying environmental factors. Recently updated, Defend now contains the collagen protecting peptide, Syn-Coll as well as the addition of a new favorite in antioxidant protection, Lipochroman-6.


Balances Oil & Shine
Shiny skin isn't too often a welcome sight. On the other hand, many anti-shine products go a bit far and either make your face look chalky and drab or coated and caked. Defend feels great and does a great job of absorbing excess oil throughout the day, keeping your skin balanced and natural-looking. An added benefit to the oil absorbers in Defend is diffusion of light which softens the look of fine lines.


Hydrates & Tones
Defend feels light and pleasant, keeping your skin hydrated and toned throughout the day. Defend also increases skin's elasticity, helping you further avoid new wrinkle formation.

I have fair skin. I burn easily, therefore, I am already starting to get little wrinkles at 26. Defend is great for me because it helps with the wrinkles, but also keeps my skin balanced. I'm oily in some places and dry in others. With defend, it keeps all areas happy! :)

QUENCH
Heal

Do away with the look of lips that are winter-worn or aged-looking. Vitamin E, meadowfoam and blueberry seed oils help bring back lip's suppleness so you're ready for that holiday kiss!


Refresh
Keep your lips naturally full, bright and youthful-looking with collagen boosting, skin brightening vitamin C (the most beneficial and gentlest form of vitamin C we've found). Peppermint and clementine oils wake up your lips and add an invigorating tingle.


Protect
Our powerful blend of free radical fighting antioxidants prevent damage from stress and environmental factors while pharmaceutical-grade beeswax seals in moisture and further protects your lips.

I am picky about lip stuff. For chapped lips, the only thing I use is Carmex. But, now that I've tried quench, I'm adding it to my trusted list. It gives the tingly feeling when you put it on. That's how I know it's working. I love that feeling, and most lip balms don't have it. I got 5 samples of it. My mom took one home with her. She fell in love with it saying 'this is really good stuff!'

Overall, I am very pleased with ybf! They have nice products, nice packaging, and nice employees! Can't say that I have one bad work to say about them!
