My Honest Thrive Skin Review
Look, I’ve never had great skin. Even before I hit puberty I was ahead of the curve in regards to feeling self-conscious about my epidermis. Acne, rashes, uneven tone — and things didn’t get much better as I moved from my teens into my twenties.
Long ago I became proficient at hiding my “(sk)insecurities” with foundations and concealers, but at the end of the day when the makeup gets rinsed down the drain, I am always left staring at my own blemished reflection and wishing there was something better.
And that’s what I’m here to talk to you about today: my experience with Le-Vel Thrive’s answer to skin care. In this honest Thrive Skin review, I’ll walk you through what this health-and-wellness giant brings to the table, and how it handled itself when it went face to face with my face.
Thrive Skin Review: Three Steps
Let’s get started with some of the basics. Thrive Skin is a skin-care line from Le-Vel that uses natural & organic ingredients, and is enriched with CBD oil for US buyers (hemp oil for our Canadian friends!).
Thrive Skin is designed to help improve skin health, combat harmful bacteria, reduce the appearance of aging, etc. To do this, the main Thrive Skin solution consists of three individual products designed to work in tandem as part of a three-step process:
Step 1: Infinite CBD Enzyme Peel
2–3 times per week, apply the CBD enzyme peel. This will work to peel away dead skin cells without causing irritation and allow the skin to increase its absorption potential (which plays an important role in steps 2 and 3).
Step 2: Infinite CBD Correcting Serum
The next step is part of a daily skin-care routine and introduces antioxidant and moisturization support.
Step 3: Infinite AM/PM CBD Moisturizing Elixir
Step 3 reinforces Step 2 with additional antioxidant support and incorporates patented microencapsulation technology to soothe and calm the skin and improve skin-cell health.
Thrive Skin Review: CBD Benefits
As you can probably see in the product names, the primary active ingredient in every step of the Thrive Skin process is CBD. CBD is short for Cannabidiol and is a natural, non-psychoactive compound derived from the cannabis plant.
CBD’s effectiveness as a skin care agent has been well documented. Studies show that CBD is a documented solution in treating a range of skin conditions and likely also combats oxidative stress that contributes to the aging process.
Built around the skin care advantages of CBD, the Thrive Skin line proposes a range of potential benefits, including improved glow and luminosity, more consistent skin tone, improved moisture, and reduced appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Did you get all that? Here’s the TL;DR version: The Thrive Skin routine consists of three steps and uses CBD to help improve skin health and reduce tell-tale signs of aging.
Armed with these expectations, I was finally ready to experience Thrive Skin for myself.
Thrive Skin Review: My Experience
As I said, my skin isn’t naturally that great. So for me, the possibility of improving my look without having to always cover it up with makeup was an intriguing one. And, because I was already a dedicated Le-Vel Thriver (I’ve been committed to the Le-Vel Thrive Experience for a few years now and I’ve seen firsthand just how effective it is), it made sense to take a chance with the Thrive Skin line.
But when it came time to use the Infinite CBD Enzyme (the one that removes dead skin cells), I have to admit, I hesitated. After all, my face was already blotchy; did I really want to put something on it that might make things worse? But those fears were unfounded — far from the burning sensation I was anticipating, when I finally plucked up the courage I found that the enzyme provided a soothing experience.
Emboldened, I washed away my dead skin and moved enthusiastically into the next two steps.
Upon completing the full process my face felt rejuvenated. It was similar to the feeling of freshness and cleanliness that comes from a good face wash after the end of a long day. But it was also more than that. Almost from day one, I started to feel as though the skin of my face was smoother and tighter.
Within the first week the blotchiness had started to subside, and more than once I startled myself with just how good I looked when passing reflective surfaces.
And with these changes came improved confidence. I was smiling more. I was quicker to engage people in conversations. I didn’t shy away from photos. I finally felt at home in my own skin, and I firmly believe that it was Thrive Skin that made the difference.
Thrive Skin Review: Verdict
I started off this review by saying that I never had great skin, but I’m starting to realize that it isn’t true. What would be more accurate would be to say that I never had the right skincare routine to help me realize just how great my skin could be. Thrive Skin helped me expose the beautiful skin that was just waiting beneath the surface.
And I honestly think it can do the same for you. If you’ve always wanted healthier, more vibrant skin, give Thrive Skin a try. After all, if you give your skin the care it deserves, your beauty will shine through for everyone to see.
