Guide Review - SKIN by Monica: VIBRANCE HGH Creme
When I first opened SKIN by Monica's VIBRANCE HGH Creme, I was surprised at the color. Just by looking, I would expect that it would be a product for a women of color, so I wasn't expecting it to be something that would work with my fair skin, freckled face. The scent was at first pleasant; it smells a bit like cocoa. I thought that I would love it, but to be honest, it got to me after a few days. But luckily the scent fades very fast and the product works so well that the scent issue flew from my mind.
This product says to use as a leave on toner before you continue your skin and makeup application. I was also told that it can be used as a tinted moisturizer and makeup primer, so that is how I used it. Surprisingly the color just sunk right in leaving my skin looking flawless. The first time I used it, I went ahead and put on foundation afterwards, but then quickly realized that that wasn't necessary. From then on, VIBRANCE HGH Creme was enough coverage. There is no sun protection, so I made sure add in sunscreen for protection. With HGH as an active ingredient, this will help restore collagen and relax fine lines, wrinkles and creases naturally.
