Week 2 and I couldn’t be happier. Using the Fall Box has been nothing short of fantastic.

I am seeing steady improvements. Each day the pores look finer, the age spots fade just a little more. The fine lines and wrinkles are a little less notable. The overall appearance of my skin has been smooth and hydrated.

This box has absolutely impressed me. I always expect great things from Adeline and Sabbatical Beauty, but this has gone beyond expectations. Everything in it has definitely exceeded what I expected, like Aloe & Oat being so hydrating by itself as a cleanser, and Botanical Acid Toner definitely helping overall with product absorption.

So I was really worried about this box when I first got it because of the lack of acne-blasting products, as well as the number of acids. I am now officially an acid convert though! I haven't had any negative reactions to either Botanical Acid Toner (Coming soon!) or Apple Cider serum (Coming soon!) yet, and they’re both really growing on me. My skin feels so smooth and it feels like they’re helping a lot with the acne.

I’m extremely excited to see how much further my skin improves in hydration, and to see if/how much redness reduces. I’m really excited to see my skin unclogging as well.

This is my first time using Sabbatical Beauty products and I am totally sold! Initially, I thought the prices were pretty steep. Now, I know why. These are quality products, with quality ingredients. The samples are small, but minimal amounts are needed to make an impact on your skin. I can’t wait to try more products. I thought that becoming a reviewer would help me decide on what products to choose, but it didn’t. Now I want everything!!

 I LOVE how the entire box seems to geared towards brightening and evening skin tone. I know that I tend to spend a lot of time outdoors in the summer and even with proper precautions I will get some sun spots.  With my acne prone skin, summer acn tends to get a bit worse and acne scars also seem more pronounced because of the sun exposure.

Being a Fall Box presenter has been such a lovely experience, not only have I been graced with the wonderful products to sample, I have been gifted with the most wonderful group of women!! The Sabbatical Beauty Facebook group is the place to be ladies!

I have really enjoyed doing the lives. I have also greatly enjoyed watching my fellow presenters grow and gain confidence with every live they do. I  have found that the lives get easier each time for me too.

I’ve always been a skin care junkie. Trying this and that, all with ‘meh’ results. I’ve always felt like ‘maybe that’s it’ you know? Like my skin can’t get better no matter what. The products I’ve been using, even if they ‘work’ to some level, they stop doing so after 2-3 months and I’ll be on the hunt for the next thing to try. It was exhausting. It was a chore. Not once or twice that I’ve given up and just do nothing to my face.

I was fighting sun damage, & red patches occasionally around my eyes, & sagging/signs of aging.  I kept trying different brands, & used one company’s products for several years, but didn’t see super obvious results.  People did say I did not look my age (& still do), but that could’ve been genetics

Since using Sabbatical Beauty hydration has improved, I'm no longer so dry that I'm flaking. My skin feels a lot more “alive”, with improved circulation, and I don't have constant severe breakouts. 

Since using Sabbatical Beauty I have smaller pores and it has become more even tone.  The even tone is harder to maintain for me since I have acne prone skin.  I break out and most times the breakouts leave scars. I also have really dry skin but I noticed that SB products make me look and feel less dry.
