Reviva Labs Hand Facial Treatment
Continuing a look at some of the hand/nail care treatment options featured in the Friday Follower Freebie prizes this month (watch for these this Friday!), today I have some products from Reviva Labs, which are all multi-purpose, meaning they can be used as facial and/or hand care treatments. All of the products featured in the FFF during June are ones that I have found to work well in my rotation of products and routines.These are the products used to give yourself a "Hand Facial" at home. I've been using this routine once a week for a month, and have not only enjoyed the process, but I've been very happy with the results. The products include L-R: Light Skin Peel, Hydrogen Peroxide Green Papaya Mask, Skin Energizing Gel, and EFAs Cream. This can be done as a two-step or a four step routine, as you'll read more about below. note: to see a complete list of product ingredients, click the product name links.

Step 1 Below: Apply the Light Skin Peel (which was originally designed as a facial mask, so it works nicely for that also) ($20.00) on the back of your hands. Allow it to dry (about 3-5 minutes), and I find it best to do the removal over the sink--then rub it off with a dry towel. It can almost be peeled off, but I use a towel to get off the excess. This is a fairly thick lotion that has a strong scent, which reminded me of Oregano. It actually has Oil of Thyme in it, which would explain the scent. The particles you're seeing are crushed almonds, which aid in exfoliation.

Step 2 Below: Massage the Hydrogen Peroxide Green Papaya Mask (another product that works for the face as well) ($11.00) into your hands. I mainly keep this on the back of the hand area and massage a little extra into the cuticle area. This is left on for 10 minutes, and then I remove it with a warm, wet wash cloth. Finish up by rinsing your hands with warm water. The scent of this is fresh and light, and it has an oily feel, as you can see in the photo of my hand below before rinsing it off. The oils it contains include Sunflower, Soybean, and Lanolin. This completes the two-step process, but I continue with Steps three and four for added benefits.




What I like about these products also, is that they can be used on your face and your hands, with good results that you can see right away. Their distribution has mainly been through health care stores so while they may not be as well-known as many brands, their longevity on the market (37 years) and the attention to the science behind their products, not to mention the results I've achieved, have made me a believer.

Sounds like a wonderful treatment. I have a hand mask by Avon that I've yet to use. I'll have to try it. Nice that you can use it on your face also.
ReplyDeletenice.. thanks for sharing (^_^)
ReplyDeleteOh this sounds like Heaven! I luv that you can use the same products on your face & hands!
ReplyDeleteGreat review, Mary. I've been using all of the products you mentioned as facial treatments. I have found them to be really effective. I have reviews up for all of them, except the Oxygen Mask, which I will be posting within the next week. The hand facial treatment looks so pampering. I will have to give it a try. <3
ReplyDeleteGreat review! I love beauty products, especially creams and scrubs!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised you kept your ring on? Didn't the stuff get caught in it?

Diana~I've enjoyed your reviews and like you, I'm finding all of their products to be very effective.
Jackie S.~me too, scrubs, masks, all of those things! That's my 'everyday' ring that goes through a lot of wear and tear, but always cleans right off. I seldom remove it, except to exchange it for my 'real' wedding ring :)
