Review: Ole Henriksen Balance VoxBox*

Hey Guys,
Today I'm going to share my thoughts on the Ole Henriksen Balance VoxBox that I received from Influenster. I am supposed to mention that I got these free from Influenster for testing and review purposes. I am familiar with the skin care brand Ole Henriksen but I wasn't aware that they came out with a new line for oily/combo skin. I was really excited to try these products out because I can get pretty oily in my t-zone and nothing really made a huge difference in preventing that. Mattifying foundations do help but the right skincare is even more important. Check out my unboxing video and keep reading to hear my thoughts on each product!
Ole Henriksen Balance VoxBox

I have been using these products for the past few weeks. I have been using the cleanser in the morning, the toner in the morning and night, and the moisturizer during the day and night. I have started to use the moisturizer and toner only in the morning so that I can make the products last longer.

Powerful glycolic and lactic acids help loosen and lift dead skin cells that can cause pore-clogging build-up. Instantly, the complexion is refreshed and balanced with a healthy-looking Ole Glow™!

On to my thoughts:

I really like this cleanser. It foams up a little and my skin feels nice and refreshed after using it. It has a cooling feeling and helps me wake up in the morning. I like the minty scent and it doesn't make my face feel tight after using. I do agree with all the claims that it helps reduce oil, purifies pores, mattifies, and restores skin's balance.

On to my thoughts:
I like this toner as well. It also has a cooling feeling and minty scent to it. It doesn't have strong alcohol scent to it like some toners. I agree with most of the claims above. However, I didn't notice a big change in the size of my pores.

On to my thoughts:
I love this moisturizer! It super lightweight and does give a mattifying look to my skin. It also as a slight cooling feel that makes my skin feel refreshed. I agree with the claims that it reduces oil and shine and gives a matte healthy glow. However, I didn't notice a huge difference in my pores after using this product either.
Overall I really LOVED this line! I think that all of the products do help control oil and balances your skin. I also agree that they help mattify your skin and gives a healthy matte glow. I'm not sure how each product works by itself since I used a three together. However, if I had to make an educated guess; I would say that each product does what it claims even on its own. I highly recommend this line for anyone with oily/combo skin! Below are the products discussed plus a few more from the line. They also have a starter kit you could check out below as well!
