    Treat Your Skin: Factor Five Product Review

    antiagingskincare

    I always love hearing from companies whose products align with my healthy living and healthy aging vision. So, when the creators of FactorFive skincare reached out to me regarding their Anti-Aging Cream, you already know I was going to jump on the opportunity to check their product out!

    As you already know, I’m a huge fan of non-invasive, natural ways to age healthily and gracefully. I love trying new lotions, potions, oils, and creams and have my favorite line-up of tried and trues. So when I decide to add something new to my skincare regimen, you know it has to be worth its salt….and FactorFive definitely is worth that and more.

    I spent two weeks using FactorFive Anti-Aging Cream at night before bed so that I could get a good feel for what it would do with my skin. I can tell you it was love at first night. For real. This beautiful cream went on like a dream without feeling heavy or sticky. It instantly hydrated and smoothed my always-tired-mom face and I loved the very light, natural, and relaxing scent.

    By morning my skin was supple and glowy, and I honestly feel that this became more apparent with each day of use. What really sold me on the fact that this stuff was not just your average skin cream was the fact that I was recently asked who I went to to get Botox because my forehead looks so smooth….the thing is….I don’t get Botox in my forehead! I never have! So something I’m doing must be working and I think this cream is definitely boosting things in the right direction. I noticed a difference in my skin’s elascticity, brightness, and a diminishing of fine lines around my eyes, and I’ll take all of that, because adulthood is exhausting and Lord knows all of that ends up on our faces whether we want it to or not!

    So, aside from the very apparent benefits FactorFive Anti-Aging Cream has for my skin, I have to tell you why else they’ve become a fast favorite of mine. The ingredients are great. Their entire line is free of parabens, phthalates, urea, DEA and TEA. They incorporate ethically sourced adipose-derived stem cells which contain growth factors that our skin naturally starts losing as we age. They also use some of my favorite skincare ingredients like hyaluronic acid, copper peptides, Vitamin C, aloe, and skin loving herbal extracts. Plus they cultivate and manufacture all of their products at their lab in California….made in the USA baby!

    Another thing that I love is that FactorFive labs also use VISIA which is an advanced skin analysis system to accurately measure the results of their skincare products. They don’t just create something and throw it on the market to see if it sinks or swims. They actually test things down to the pore. That’s how confident they are in their line…and speaking of lines, VISIA has shown that after 4 weeks of using FactorFive products there was a 33% reduction in fine lines on the women they tested. With over 10 years of stem cell research and such a careful way of ensuring their skincare actually works….it’s no wonder my skin loves this stuff as much as it does!

    …and just to be completely transparent….I did not get paid to write this review and I don’t work with or for FactorFive. They did send me their product to try out and decide if I wanted to share it with you. Some products that I try don’t make the chopping block, but this one…well, this one was too good not to share!

    So if you’re in the market for a new skin cream and want to treat your face to something wonderful, give FactorFive a try! Your face will be as happy as mine is!
