Repêchage T-Zone Line

About a week ago, I purchased the Repêchage T-Zone Line of face care products. Specifically, I bought the cleansing complex, toning complex and moisturizer. This line is designed especially for combination skin (oily in the forehead, nose and chin, dry everywhere else). When I started using this product line, I had horrible dry skin (flaking and itchy) just below my eyebrows, and every time I washed my face, with Philosophy products, my cheeks would feel like they had been stretched to maximum. This is one of the signs of combination skin, along with the oily t-zone.

When we worked on facials a few weeks ago, I learned about these products and had them used when I was a model for the facial. I noticed that I wasn't feeling the tightness that I was used to. Knowing that I was nearly out of my Philosophy products, I purchased the line for myself. Within a few days, the dryness under my brows was gone and my cheeks are never tight when I get done washing my face!

Another awesome thing that I accidentally discovered last night: if you get it in your eye, it doesn't hurt or burn. It will put a film over your eye, but simple saline eye drops will help to clear it out. (Whoops!)

The biggest difference in these products from others is that they have no alcohol and are formulated to balance out the "problems" in your skin.

The t-zone line features St. John's Wart which is antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, soothing and balancing. It also contains glycerine which binds water to the skin, helping it to retain moisture. Over time, the t-zone line will help the oil glands to regulate and balance to reduce the oily t-zone and moisturize the dryer areas. There is a honey and almond scrub for any skin type that can be used once a week to soften and renew skin. Finally, in this line there is a balancing, hydrating mask for weekly use. It absorbs excess oil, draws impurities out, and stimulates new tissue growth.

There are also products for oily (Hydra Refine), and dry/sensitive (Hydra 4) skin types, which I can only assume work just as well. A word of caution about all Repêchage products other than the t-zone line, they have seaweed in them. From experience, if you are allergic to shellfish, use the t-zone line!

If you are interested in purchasing any of these products, or anything else that we sell at Tricoci (Redken, Pureology, Avlon or OPI) please stop in and let the receptionist know that I recommended it! This will help me with my retail experience (mark offs). I appreciate it!
