One of the best deals I scored during Sephora’s Black Friday sale was the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream which comes in a 170g tube.
I’ve had a chance to trial a couple of First Aid Beauty products in the past, and I can remember using this cream during my travels (They are so handy!) but didn’t really get too excited about it which is why I questioned my sanity when I stocked up on this during the sale.
I picked up 2 of these to try out (if I ended up liking it, at least I’ve got a backup!) and I can immediately tell I will likely do this much more than I thought I would.
The First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream can be used on the face and body – as a body moisturizer, I love that this isn’t greasy, or feel heavy on the skin. A little still goes a long way and despite my initial hesitation about what I perceive to be poorer hygiene standards by way of the tub format, I ended up getting used to it!
The First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream has a very lightweight consistency and some scent to it; I prefer to use this on the body as I have other face moisturizers that I prefer. I also don’t find it hydrating enough to wear as a moisturizer.
The all-purpose, head-to-toe cream is touted as being sufficiently hydrating for those suffering from eczema. It does work wonders on dry/cracked skin (i.e. elbows) during the winter so I imagine this can easily take care of dried-out skin due to winter.
The lightweight but effective cream really sinks into the skin after application so it doesn’t get all over my shirt/pants after I shower. I like that it doesn’t leave a greasy residue as I hate the “sticky” feeling on your clothes.
At full price, this cream/moisturizer does feel like a splurge but during the Black Friday sale, this purchase more than justified itself. I don’t see myself finishing a tub quickly – it will take at least 4-5 months of twice-daily use to work my way through one tub.
If you’re looking for a drugstore alternative, my favorite moisturizer is the Bioderma Atoderm Intensive Balm which is really pricey at full-price so I always try to pick them up during a sale when possible. Just like the FAB alternative, the cream can be used for the face and body.
