If you've decided to try Alba's acne skincare products in hopes of getting a clear complexion, you may want to think again.
First understand, not everything about Alba is bad.
In fact, they make an awesome Green Tea + Aloe Vera Moisturizer, which I highly recommend. I'll talk about that more in a little bit.
Before I get going though, here's the deal you're getting with Alba. Like many acne products, Alba is meant to be applied in a three step process.
Alba Acne Instructions, aka the Application Process
(Be sure to click the 3 links below to learn more about each individual Alba product. If the links aren't yet available, I still need to created the pages for them.)
- Pineapple Enzyme Facial Cleanser comes first.
- Followed by the Hibiscus Facial Toner.
- Finally, the Aloe and Green Tea Moisturizer is applied.
Positives of Alba
Aside from the three products you're getting from Alba, you're also getting a product that's around 100% organic. I don't want to say that it's fully organic, because you can never be so sure. However, it's definitely close.
Alba's products contain a lot of ingredients that are actually good for your skin, including the always famous Aloe Vera and Green Tea. The Alba Facial Toner also contains hibiscus, like I mentioned above. Is hibiscus good for acne? I'm not sure.
Alba Negatives
Aside from the positives, Alba's cleanser can be pretty harsh on your skin. If you think Proactiv is too harsh, those individuals with sensitive skin should NOT use Alba!
The toner is nothing too special, but after further analysis, it's not a bad product.
The moisturizer is awesome, and I'd definitely recommend it. Again, be sure to check out the 3 links above to learn more about each individual Alba product.
Alba Overall Review
Overall, I give Alba a 5 out of 10.
Their moisturizer is awesome, and I would definitely give it a 10 out of 10, but this alone, doesn't make the rest of Alba's products awesome.
Alba really isn't made to clear your skin, and if you do expect to get clear skin with Alba, you'll need to do a lot more inside-and-out cleansing.
Alba alone, will NOT clear your acne!
However, if you're looking for a good moisturizer, I would definitely recommend Alba's Aloe and Green Tea Moisturizer. It's one of the best moisturizers that I have ever used.
