Strixaderm MD Review, Part I

Strixaderm MD is a skincare company that offers a broad range of products that target specific skin concerns.  They promise visible, long-lasting results and their scientific formulas are certified by AMA laboratories.  Their products are also completely paraben-free and hypoallergenic, so when they contacted me to see if I was interested in trying some of their products I was quite interested.

I received four total products to review, and I'll be breaking them up into two separate posts.  Up first are the Crystal Peel Body Cleanser and the Secret Bright Ultimate Skin Brightener.

The Crystal Peel Body Cleanser can be used in the shower like any other body wash, but unlike your standard body wash it gives skin a deep, yet gentle, exfoliation to improve overall health and appearance.  It can be used on a daily basis without irritating the skin and has a fresh citrus-like scent.  It's a gel formula that's orange with little exfoliating beads.  I love trying out new exfoliating products, and I especially like ones that are easy to use.  It's just as important to remove dead skin cells from the entire body as it is for the face, and this cleanser provides an easy and enjoyable way to do so.  The technology behind it is Strixaderm MD's DermaScrub-PS, an exclusive, patented cocktail or active ingredients including amber powder and passion fruit seed powder (natural mechanical exfoliating agents) and florapearls (exfoliating microspheres that refine the skin's texture).  It also contains salicylic acid to help tone the skin and bromelaine, a natural toning enzyme derived from pineapples.  I've been using this cleanser for about two weeks and I really enjoy it!  My skin feels soft and smooth after I get out of the shower, and I like that the cleanser isn't overly-drying.

The Secret Bright Ultimate Skin Brightener is a brand new product, so new that it isn't even on the website yet!  It's a skin lightener that works to reduce the appearance of freckles and dark spots anywhere, so you can use it on your body as well as your face.  I don't have any freckles or dark spots that I wish to conceal, but I like that this can be used to even out the skintone overall.  The consistency resembles that of a skin oil.  I've been using it on my entire body and it feels a bit heavy at first but absorbs quickly into the skin.

Bottom Line: I think the Crystal Peel Body Cleanser and Secret Bright Ultimate Skin Brightener are both really interesting products!  I've enjoyed using both of them thus far and am curious to see what the results will be as I continue to use them.
