Avon Nutraeffects Active Seed Complex Cream Review*


Boost your skin's natural glow with CHIA SEED!! yes... ch-ch-ch-chia!! Not only is it delicious and super nutritious in puddings (I love to soak chia in vanilla almond milk and eat it with some fruit), but did you know that it is ultra hydrating and rich in Omega 3's? 

There is a total of 4 different categories within this NutraEffects range - 
each in both a Day Cream (that contains various levels of SPF depending on formula) + Night Cream plus an additional Eye Cream for the Ageless range:
1) HYDRATION: Targeted for normal to dry skin, contains Chia Seeds and provides 48 hour moisturization. It also improves the skin texture.

2) RADIANCE: Ideal for dull and uneven skin tone. Contains Chia + Bird of Paradise Seed that visibly restores radiance, eliminates dullness and evens out the skin tone. 

3) AGELESS: Used for those who want to combat early signs of aging with Chia Seed and Pomegranate extract. It smoothes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while nourishing the skin.

4) BALANCE: Perfect for oily to combination skin, contains Chia Seed and Mattifying Powders to reduce oil and minimizes the look of pores. It balances the look and feel of skin. 


I was lucky enough to be sent two products, both night creams in the Radiance and Ageless formulas.

For a night cream, they are both very light weight and absorbs quickly to the skin leaving a very light fragrance that is very calming. I found that the Ageless formula was a bit thicker, a bit richer which makes sense as it works to really nourish the skin (as mentioned and confirmed by the product description).. 


I honestly LOVE these products, I gifted my mom the Ageless cream after I finish testing it out. I think that $20 (well now on sale, not sure for how long though), is so worth it! It's a generous quantity at 50ml and the price is more than reasonable. I want to try out the Balance Day Cream actually and will most likely contact my friend who is an Avon Rep. I really want to balance out my combination skin and if the day creams work as well as the nights, then sign me up!

 
Swatches above ~ Top: Radiance, Bottom: Ageless - as you can see, Ageless is a bit thicker in formulation.

I highly suggest that you go give these a try ASAP! They are pretty amazing and is available now as of February 2017 through your local Avon Independent Sales Reps, through the phone with Avon or online at http://www.avon.ca

Until next time, XO - M.
