You guys know I've been a fan of Revolution Beauty since the early days. This brand is constantly evolving with a plethora of new launches and brand expansion meaning you can now shop everything from makeup to skincare, hair to body care. Now you know skincare is where it's at for me these days, so I was honoured to be able to try some of Revolution's Skincare Line which I have been testing since the start of the year, so here are my thoughts...

THE COLLECTION
There is now over 40 products to choose from within the collection including everything from Serums, Essences, Moisturisers, Oils and Masks. Revolution do a great job of categorising everything with regards to product type, concern, skin type, ingredients and benefit on their website here* so you can easily navigate throughout the pages to find what will be best suited for you personally.

WHAT DO THE PRODUCTS DO?
I am going to be covering four products here on the blog that as I mentiond I have been testing out since the start of the year, below is a breakdown of each product.

1. Revolution Superfruit Extract* - A Primer and Serum in one, this skin friendly serum hydrates, replenishes and brightens the skin thanks to it's delicate irridecence and Blueberry Extract. 
2. Revolution 10% Niacinamide + 1% Zinc* - Primarley this serum aides in refining pores and blemishes thanks to one of my favourite ingredient Niacinimide. additionally the Zinc is wonderful for dry skin as it helps calm and soothe. 
3. Revolution Quinoa Night Peel* - This radiance enhancing serum with Vitamin B gently sloughes away dead skin to reveal smoother and brighter skin. When using this product an SPF is recommended. 
4. Revolution 5% Lactic Acid + Hyaluronic Acid* - This mild exfoliator can aid in smoothing out the skins texture as well as leaving the skin looking plump and feeling hydrated. An SPF is again recommend when using this product.

PACKAGING

HOW TO USE
You can also watch my intial first impression I linked above for live demos on each.
- Revolution Superfuit Extract - Use in the mornings before makeup as a primer or incorporate into your evening skincare routine after cleansing and toning and before moisturiser and oils. I find 3 drops is best for the whole face and neck. This smells amazing and reminds me of summer and holidays! The serum gives the skin a lovely luminous glow as well as being a great pick me up for reviving tired skin. For me this initially felt taught on the skin upon application, however I absolutely loved this paired with a moisturising cream or lotion on top. It's also a wonderful layering product if your a fan of the K-Beauty skincare routine like me.

- Revolution 10% Niacinamide + 1% Zinc - Use in the the morning or evening. I personally loved using this in the morning after cleansing, toning and essence, and before eye cream and moisturiser. Also a side note if you're using Vitamin C too, I would use both products on alternate days. I recommend shaking the product well and applying 2 drops onto the face and 2 on the neck. This has a very similar consistency to the Lactic and Hyaluronic Acid which means it sinks into the skin right away. Overall this felt comfortable on the skin with no irritation.

- Revolution Quinoa Night Peel - It is recommended to use this in the evening only 1-3 times a week. As this is a peeling serum you can slot it in after cleansing and toning, and before your regular serum, moisturiser or both. The consistency of this is quite watery upon application however, this sinks in straight way and left my skin feeling and looking soft and smoother. I use 3-4 drops for the whole face and neck.

- Revolution 5% Lactic Acid + Hyaluronic Acid - Apply this in the evening onto the face and neck daily. Use right after cleansing and if it is too strong Revolution suggest diluting the exfoliator with another product until your skin gets used to it. This again has a thinner consistency which sinks into the skin straight away. Initially it does feel slightly tacky to the touch but nevertheless it feels comfortable and doesn't irritate my skin. The next day my skin felt and looked visibly smoother. I apply 3-4 drops for the whole face and neck.

OVERALL THOUGHTS
Revolution have gone and done it again with another successful add on to thier brand! Honestly I have to admit when I first heard they were coming out with a skincare line I was dubious as skincare is a very hard thing to get right with ingredients that not only work but are what they say they are on the packaging. Revolution are an affordable and accessible brand and I did wonder how they would pull of a collection that is at the right price point with such premium ingredients, but hey they did it again and that's why they still continue to stay at the top of my list for that reason. Overall I've been impressed with what I've tried so far and now I'm keen to discover more...

I award the Revolution Superfruit Extract a 4.8 out of 5, 

Revolution 10% Niacinamide + 1% Zinc a 4.9 out of 5, 

Revolution Quinoa Night Peel a 4.7 out of 5 

Revolution 5% Lactic Acid + Hyaluronic Acid a 4.9 out of 5.
