Achieving clear, glowing skin is a major beauty goal of mine. While some women can wake up without imperfections on their face, mine requires a bit more TLC. Growing up, I dealt with my fair share of acne, oily skin, and breakouts. It was never too severe, but it took years until I began to understand that everything you put on your body has an effect on your appearance. One day, a friend let me try her moisturizer for acne prone skin and while it worked well, I was mostly surprised that it was a clean product. Not only did I see an immediate difference in my skin, it was also good for me. Determined to discover more beauty aides, I found Follain, a retailer that carefully curates safe and toxin-free products.

Follain isn't just a beauty company; they're a revolutionary part of the clean beauty movement. The retailer works closely with medical and research professionals to identify harmful ingredients on store shelves in order to provide only clean and safe options. This is so crucial, considering 60% of what you put on your skin is absorbed into your body. Their website also offers a skincare quiz, which is great for people who are new to clean beauty or unsure about what products they can benefit from.

With so many brands and products to choose from, I wasn't sure where to start. After browsing through reviews, I found the Clean Essentials Kit which offers four trial-sized bottles of organic, natural skincare. It comes with a cleanser, a toner, a recovery cream, and a rejuvenating, protective soap — four simple steps to clear skin. I've tried countless expensive products in the past and saw no change or improvement. Truthfully, I didn't expect much from Follain's lower-priced kit-- it felt like a longshot that products free of chemicals were the secret to clear skin. But after just a few uses, I noticed a visible difference.

I used the four products in the kit religiously for 7 days and felt my face getting smoother with every wash. Usually I'd anticipate a breakout when trying anything new to my face. However, my skin seemed to adapt pretty quickly. After 2 days, I started to notice improvement both in color and texture. And by the 7-day mark, I was ready to go out without any makeup.

I was impressed by how such a small change can make such a big difference in achieving my beauty goal. I looked back at the products I used before trying Follain and could hardly read or pronounce any ingredients on the labels. But with Follain, I recognize a lot: essential oils, algae extract, carrot, and aloe, just to name a few. And that, above all, is proof that simple is best when it comes to clear skin.
