Taking Figgi Beauty Products on Holiday: A First Look
These Figgi Beauty products were gifted to me to try out and share with you but all opinions are my own.
There’s nothing like getting older and looking in the mirror before a holiday to make you reconsider your skincare routine. So, I decided it was an ideal moment to try out some products from Figgi Beauty, a brand with a reputation for catering to sensitive and dry skin. Their entire line is fragrance-free, which immediately grabbed my interest as I often have reactions to products.
I’ve packed a full Figgi routine for my holiday, hoping these products will handle whatever my plans and the climate throw at my skin. Before setting off, here’s what’s made it into my washbag and why, with a promise to report back on the results after a few weeks of use.
Why I Chose Figgi
Discovering effective products for sensitive skin often feels like searching for a hidden gem. Figgi’s focus on gentle, practical formulas drew me in, especially the no-nonsense ingredient lists and absence of added fragrance. The opportunity to test these products out in new surroundings (and likely, in various conditions, think sun, sea, late nights, and early mornings) seemed almost too good to pass up.
What’s in My Figgi Travel Kit?
1. Purify the Goddess Makeup Dissolving Balm to Oil Cleanser
Step one in my evening routine will be this balm cleanser, designed to remove makeup and sunscreen without aggravating sensitive skin. It starts as a balm and transforms into an oil, making it easy to remove stubborn products and daily grime. I’m most curious to see if it clears away everything without leaving my skin feeling greasy or tight.
2. Refresh the Goddess Gentle Gel Cleanser
Following up with this gel cleanser as step two promises a complete (but gentle) cleanse. It’s intended to wash away any residue left after the balm, offering extra reassurance for those who like to double-cleanse or just want a fresh-faced feeling. Its claim to soothe without stripping is especially appealing for travel-weary skin.
3. Nourish the Goddess Evening Rescue Cream
This is headed straight for my night routine. The cream focuses on deep hydration and supports skin as it recovers from daily exposure. Ingredients are chosen for their soothing and replenishing effects, which should come in handy after long days by the Mediterranean. I’ll be watching to see how my skin feels by morning, will it be calm and hydrated or still dry?
4. Nurture the Goddess Antioxidant Enriched Day Cream
For daytime, I’m bringing this moisturiser, which aims to shield and hydrate the skin while delivering antioxidants. The formula is designed to sit comfortably under sunscreen and makeup, without feeling heavy. It’s fragrance-free and created to support sensitive skin, so hopefully, it’ll avoid the dreaded midday shine or unexpected reactions.
5. The Slow Glow Gentle Retinol Renewal Serum
A gentle approach to retinol caught my attention here; this serum offers the benefits of retinol (think smoother texture and a bit of glow), but the formulation aims to avoid the classic irritation that often comes with stronger retinoids. I’ll be applying this at night a few times a week, curious to see how it works.
6. Miracle Mist
Rounding things off is the Miracle Mist, a facial spray that claims to refresh, hydrate, and give a quick boost to tired skin. On busy travel days when we have been driving for 8+ hours, I imagine this will be my pick-me-up before tea. Because it’s gentle and fragrance-free, I’m hoping I can use it as often as needed without any redness or stinging.
What I’m Expecting
With formulas designed to be both effective and gentle, this routine feels promising. The absence of fragrance and the emphasis on soothing ingredients give me hope that I won’t be dealing with perimenopause spot breakouts or irritation whilst away. Of course, I’m heading into this with an open mind; nothing is guaranteed with skincare, after all!
What’s Next?
Glowing skin would be nice, but my main hope is for calm, healthy skin that feels good at the end of each day. I’ll be putting these products through their paces over the next few weeks and will share an honest update once I’m back. If you’re also on a mission to find gentle, fragrance-free options that support sensitive skin, these might be worth a look. Stay tuned, my full review is coming soon!
