Forest Secrets Natural Skincare Review

About Forest Secrets:

“Our guiding principle is that all Forest Secrets products are made without compromise; in manufacture and in the raw materials used quality is the watch word. Each of our products is to be packed full of carefully selected active ingredients; all of them natural, sometimes rare and often very expensive, unlike other conventional products which have just a few, or often only one, active ingredient. The products are potent as well as pure – they are extremely concentrated, so that only a few drops of each are needed. This makes them good value, and giving value for money is also a core principle for us. A full size 15ml bottle in daily use may last you for up to three months.

Good for your skin, your pocket and our environment!

Your skin is free to breath and to regenerate itself naturally because there are no waxes clogging its pores thanks to our unique personalised skincare system. Clinically proven plant extracts stimulate collagen production increasing your skin elasticity, making it soft and glowing. 100% natural too.

Your Pocket: iRejuvenate Plus is highly concentrated and can last up to 2-3 months. One 15 ml bottle contains over 300 drops, when using 2 drops per application twice a day, it lasts 2.5 months!

Our Environment: we are the only company committed to minimise the use of palm oil derivatives. Because palm tree plantations cause deforestation and orangutans extinction in South East Asia we do our bit by using only one, glycerine.”

My Description & Thoughts:

I apply a few drops of this elixir to my finger tips, along with a few drops of the serum and apply to freshly cleansed facial skin. I find it neat that the elixir and serum are each formulated with specific purposes. Together, they make a powerful duo that helps keep skin young. This serum smells light and refreshing.

This brand includes some wonderful, organic ingredients–which is what always interests me most in skin care products: clean, organic ingredients. Obviously, Forest Secrets is a brand that is conscious of the ingredients they use. I love that Forest provides a list of harsh components that they do not use in their products.

Going organic with some of these ingredients would be my only improvement. Ultimately, it is refreshing to come across a unique brand like this that strives for goodness in their products.

Forest Secrets irejuvenate plus serum

iRejuvenate Plus Serum

Forest Secret’s Description:

“Refreshing and velvety, this skin serum is the second element to the iRejuvenate Plus anti-ageing system. The serum helps to slow down destruction of collagen, providing plant based nutrients that can feed the skin to support its replenishment, and deliver the essential amino acids that the body needs to produce fresh collagen. What is new: plant based kinetin. Clinical studies with products containing kinetin on women with photodamaged skin show a visible improvement on skin texture, hyperpigmentation and fine wrinkles. Use in combination with iRejuvenate Plus Elixir to benefit from the fourfold collagen strategy (stimulate, protect, feed and nourish) for a pure anti-ageing treatment. Please note this product is concentrated and a drop goes a long way.

Pure without Parabens, Silicones. PEGs, petrochemicals, Hydrogenated ingredients, Synthetic fragrances and colours, GMO.

Potent with clinically tested herbal extracts and fair trade ingredients.

Personal, providing a bespoke beauty tool that empowers you, allowing you to decide what your skin needs.

Ingredients:

Aloe barbadensis leaf juice*, Glycerin, Aqua (Water), Mimosa tenuiflora bark extract, Kinetin (from plant sources), Chlorella vulgaris extract, Parfum (from plants) Vitex agnus castus extract, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Sodium hyaluronate (from bio sources), Ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate, Lecithin (vegetable), Lactic acid, Xanthan gum, Lonicera Japonica (Honeysuckle) flower Extract, Lonicera Caprifolium (Honeysuckle) flower extract, Cyclodextrine, Rhizobian gum, Alcohol, Caprylic/Capric triglyceride.

* organic.”

My Description & Thoughts:

Like I mentioned in my thoughts regarding the elixir, I use this serum along with the elixir after I have washed my face. They two together provide the perfect amount of moisture to my skin. The size of these two pretty little bottles are also the perfect size for traveling.

The benefits that Forest Secrets Skin Care lists are wonderful. I appreciate their stance to formulate products free of harsh, GMO ingredients. The only thing that could make these products better is an ingredient list completely made up of organic ingredients. Many of these non-organic ingredients are derived from plant sources, though, which is a good sign.

Thank you, Forest Secrets for allowing to to sample these two products. All in all, I’m impressed with the usage of organic ingredients in your products!
