Uber Sassy Review (with promo code)
Last November, we Glossybox gals received a Loyalty Card
for 50% off at UberBeautyProducts.ca. At the time I had never heard of Uber
Beauty Products. Fast forward to
February and Uber contacted me and asked if I would be willing to try their
products. I accepted their offer and I selected a few items. I have used these
products for almost two months now. This review is my honest opinion.
Uber Beauty Products has an Uber Sassy line for women
and Uber Slick line for men. Each line has face, body, tanning and hair
products.
From Uber Beauty Products website;
The hip, new beauty, hair & tanning range for men & women. Über encapsulates the finest exotic ingredients from around the world, providing a complete beauty, tanning and hair range.

| Uber Sassy 'A-List Fix' |
The products I selected to try out were from the Uber
Sassy ‘A-List Fix’ Cleanser Soothing for Normal/Combination line; the Cleanser
(200ml/$17.50), the Toner (200ml/$19.00), the Day and Night Face Cream (50ml/$59.00) and the ‘A-List Fix’ Mask Moisturizing for Dry/Dehydrated Skin (125ml/$22.50). The main touted ingredients in these products are frankincense and mandarin with the Day and Night cream also having sea kelp
and avocado.
From Uber Beauty Products website:
Frankincense:This aromatic extract from the Boswellia tree has powerful aromatherapy properties to sooth and relax.The oil is naturally antiseptic with healing benefits. It promotes facial skin cell rejuvenation by improving blood supply and stimulating circulation.
Mandarin: Helps to improve the complexion and reduce fine lines. This oil is also anti-inflammatory, which desensitises irritation and reduces puffiness
The Uber Sassy products come in chic white packaging with its winky smiley face logo (so cute) and
has a light scent. It is quite lovely. I do believe it is the frankincense
that smells so nice. Plus I think the scent is calming as well. The cleanser
and toner both come with pump tops. I really like that - it makes it so much easier to use. The Day and Night cream
comes in a solid frosted glass jar with a little plastic tab cover inside to keep
the product from spilling on the lid.
My nightly regime, in a nutshell, starts with eye makeup
remover and a Neutrogena facial wipe to wipe away my face makeup. I always
pre-cleanse like this as I do not feel that most face cleansers can effectively
remove all face makeup and get the
face cleansed properly. Then I wash my face with a cleanser and sometimes I use
a toner. I will exfoliate every third
day or apply a mask. Lastly, I apply my night cream and eye cream. These Uber
Sassy products fit seamlessly into my nightly regime.

First thing I noticed with the facial cleanser is that it
has a thin milky consistency almost like skim milk. To wash my face, I used
about 5-6 pumps. Which sounds like a lot but it isn’t. I have been using this cleanser for almost
two months and I still have lots of product left. I rub this all over my damp
face with tiny circular motions then rinse off with water. It doesn’t lather so
if that is something you like, this is not going to do it for you. This
cleanser leaves the skin almost
squeaky clean feeling without stripping the face of its natural oil base. I prefer
milky cleansers as they work best at soothing my sensitive skin. I had no
issues with this cleanser at all and I really enjoy using it. I do plan on
getting more.

I will admit that I am not a faithful toner user. But for
testing out this range I did use it. I followed up with a couple pumps on a cotton
pad. It did a great job of removing any excess product and restoring balance to
my skin.

If I wasn’t exfoliating or applying a face mask, I would
just apply my eye cream de jour and then the Day and Night Cream. When I first
applied this cream, it soaked into my skin so fast I thought it dried off right
away. But after a little while, my face felt baby soft. You know that soft
feeling you can’t help touching over and over? LOL By morning my face felt soft
and supple. Since this is a glycerine based cream I prefer to use it only at
night. I truly believe this Day and Night Cream is great for sensitive skin.

This Uber Sassy range actually ‘saved’ my face. I had forgotten my Neutrogena face wipes during a
weekend trip on Easter break. So I trotted (okay drove) to the nearest Wal-Mart and grabbed what I thought was
Neutrogena face wipes but turned out to be the Wal-mart brand. After two days,
my eyes and cheeks became so irritated, burning and red from the alcohol in the
cheapy wipes. I was in hell. So I doused my face with the facial cleanser and
liberally applied the night cream on the affected areas. Normally when this
happens (and it happens more that I would like) it takes weeks for my face to
heal and get back to normal. But by the time I got home, the redness was almost
gone. When I got home, I just applied my La Roche Posay serum to assist with
the healing and my face returned to normal within days! So that really impressed
me.
Remember I mentioned the 50% Loyalty Card Uber Sassy
included in the November 2012 Glossybox? Did you know that that card was good
for a year?
Lost your card? Here is the promo code you can use for
50% off; 761599232. Uber Beauty Products is also letting my readers
in on the deal as well. You can use the same promo code for 50% off. That means
the facial cleanser would be $8.75 which is on par with most drug store
cleansers.

Bottom line I have to say I am pretty happy with these
Uber Sassy products. The Cleanser Soothing for Normal/Combination line is
pretty great for sensitive skin.Like I said before I plan on purchasing more of the cleanser for sure and maybe the night cream. I think it made for a good winter moisturiser.
As you may have noticed I didn't review the mask. I will post a review on it at a later date as I have only used it twice and want to test it a bit more.
Has anyone else tried Uber Beauty Products? Let me know
your thoughts?
