Urban Skin Rx - Amazing results but at what cost!?!

#urbanskinrx
This is my honest review after using Urban Skin Rx products for a full year. While I highly recommend these products if you suffer from darks spots and hyperpigmentation, long term use of the products are too much for the skin due to the strength of the ingredients. My recommendation would be to use the products till you are satisfied with the results it has given you and then give your skin the break it needs. Too much acids and pro strength ingredients can damage your skin's barriers. All in all, these products worked wonders for my skin and I would use them again.

    I actually use the vitamin c serum cause I have melasma and it does lighten up the skin. But I don't use all the products. Using the products to target your issues and not be excessive and use all they have is important to maintain your issues without irritation. She's right they're strong.

    I just started it and I’m impressed but I’ll give it about three months before I conclude if it works. I’m also taking accumax and once monthly microneedling(this is the first month). I will say though, I tried Curology and that worked BUT I thought I’d give urban Rx a try since it’s more comprehensive skincare. If this does not work then I will get a reve peel done and go back to curology (and use accumax for maintenance).

    The way I used the cleansing bar is two maybe three times a week. I then follow- up with Ambi fade cream and that’s it nothing more. My skin is clear now so I have gone back to Noxema cold cream to wash my face along with Ambi dark spot fade cream

    I have sensitive skin and I love their clear skin cleansing bar. I do like that it exfoliates and I always felt that in comparison to other skincare products it was actually “doing something” but I’ve only ever used that and recently, their moisturizer with SPF. I have tried the pads and I agree they are too strong. I would only use them if I noticed a blemish but now I’m wondering if it was even necessary. What skincare products do you use now ??

    Hi. Thank you for your comment. I agree with you 💯. Their products are strong but really work. I tried their pads but didn't care too much for it. I didn't find that it did much for my skin and too many strong products can cause irritation so I just stick to their cleansing bars, their day and night treatment, serums and moisturizers. I recently took a break from using the brand but went back to it. From time to time I take a break and move on to other products. I also use Drunk Elephant or the Ordinary products which are also great products for clear skin. Those are my three go to lines. Drunk Elephant is on the pricey side but you see results fast and while the Ordinary is very affordable, results will show over time but they all work great.

    I’ve been using their products since the end of 2020. I have very oily skin, especially my t-zone area. In the beginning the cleanse bar really worked and I liked the results, however as of lately I think something has changed with their cleansing bar or maybe it’s too abrasive(the sponge) because I’ve noticed my face is beginning to look very dry and rough. I plan to discontinue using their products which I stopped using the serum last year because it was burning my face. I definitely agree with you! I believe they have too much acid in their products. I’m currently looking for products that are less harsh on my skin.

    You are absolutely correct. Their products work great but after while it gets to be too much for the skin. Definitely a good idea to take a break. I've switched to using a milder cleanser, 1 acid serum, retinol, spf and moisturizer and that has worked amazing for my skin. I've realized that using less products is more than enough.

    I was using the cleansing bar but I found that I didn't get any results when it came to clearing my dark spots. It also dried my face out but I do use the enzyme mask and that's the only product I really care for out of the entire line. The sad part about the line is that the cofounder who is a black woman is no longer a part of the company but a white woman is and that may be the reason for the very harsh products.

    Some of these products do work for some and not for others for sure. I also do think they changed the products over the years due to the change in the co-founder. I found that when using their products, I did have to make sure I had a good moisturizer on hand as it can make your skin feel dry especially after using the cleansing bars. I also found other lines that work great to clear darks marks as well. The Ordinary is another great and effective line to help clear skin and you see results quite quickly as well. Thx for your comment. 🙂

    It actually worked for my skin but now randomly I’m experiencing a bit of burning on my skin. I’m wondering is it because I didn’t use any sunscreen. I want to continue to use it but first I need to understand why it’s starting to burn my skin and make it feel burnt…. I wash with the blue soap , then I have the dark spot treatment rapid repair , I also have the Sun screen but haven’t used. Any advice?

    Oh no....sorry to hear that. Please take a break from the products until you skin gets better. I have heard and read that some people do experience burning. These products are very strong with high grade ingredients so sunscreen is also a must everyday when using them. Out of all of the skincare we use, sunscreen is the most important. Scale back a little bit on the products until your skin repairs itself and then you can incorporate it back in your routine again slowly and that should help. Feel free to let me know if you have anymore questions. Happy to help.

    Yes, that's exactly what's happening. Because these products are powerful, your skin will go through a purge stage. Definitely best to stick with it for awhile until your skin gets used to it. Your skin should settle after about 2 weeks. I use these products in conjunction with another cleanser as well. I use the even tone cleanser at night only and a different cleanser in the day.

    I have heard that some people have experienced peeling and that is because of all o fthe active ingredients that are working together. All of the products might be a bit too much for your skin at the moment. I would scale it back a bit and I think the dark spot teatment is the cause of the peeling as its one of the most powerful products that they have. If the peeling doesnt stop trying using it once or twice a week instead until your skin gets really used to it. As for the breakouts, your skin is probably purging. If it doesn't stop after about 2-3 weeks, I would discontinue use of the products as they may be too harsh for your skin. I hope that helps.
