QUENCH
Lip Treatment
Josi @ The Daily Beauty Break 5.6.09
"...Carted from house to hotel, this little stick of antioxidants IS totally addicting (probably due to the cupuacu butter, vitamins C & E, blueberry seed oil and peppermint oil). Quench also contains my favorite ingredient, Spin Trap (Google that puppy and you'll see why). Bravo, YBF!"
RESTORE: May's Staff Favorite @ The Skin Care Shop
Patti @ The Skin Care Shop 5.1.09
"A truly remarkable product like no other! Brightens the skin for that flawless complexion using the BEST lightening ingredients available. This treatment really delivers to achieve that complexion we all want."
Enlarged Pores? Here's how to get Your Best Face
Jean @ Ageless Beauty 5.1.09
"I had enlarged pores around my nose and around my lips even though I have very dry skin. I didn't expect YBF Defend to do anything for the pores, but to my utter amazement, it did. This product is not just for oiliness."
Five Best Serums with Matrixyl 3000 Updated April, 2009
Marta @ Truth In Aging 4.29.09
YBF's Correct Eye Cream is one of only two remaining from last year's pick: "According to my hairdresser, it worked on dark circles that she had come to believe were permanent. It has Matrixyl 3000 and all manner of other high-tech peptides. Well worth the splurge."

Jami @ Bionic Beauty 4.27.09

Review: Correct Eye Cream works on dark under eye circles | Julie, shared by Marta @ Truth In Aging 4.26.09
Julie shares her Correct eye cream experience "I have about one week left in the generous sample and — WOW! It has greatly reduced my dark circles. I have always had dark circles, sleep or no sleep. Now they are very minimal. It's amazing — people have noticed something different about me. I believe I am sold."
From London: YBF Skincare Review| Joe @ 00o00 4.19.09
"I must admit, like the regular bloke down the street, I am clueless about anti wrinkles products. Sure I do moisturise, but "control" takes it one step further. I am really loving "correct," which is the eye cream formulated with all the good stuff to minimise dark circles and invigorates the eye area. And then there's the new product, "quench," which I've been using it day and night! I love it
that it doesn't make your lips look artificially glossy which just looks wrong on a guy."
FiveBestLip Balms| Marta @ Truth In Aging 4.17.09
"I found myself without my Your Best Face Quench last weekend and almost panicked — that's how much I've come to rely on it for lip protection. No matter how frayed my lips are feeling, one smear of Quench seems to keep me going for the rest of the day."
Lip Quench to the Rescue!| Danielle Rodman @ Style Whipped 4.14.09
"Made with protective ingredients like vitamin E and blueberry seed oil, this silky smooth tube will be my lips' salvation from now on! At a totally-worth-it $15 each, I am hooked!"
YBF QUENCH: A Luscious New Lip Treatment| Dana @ Diva In A Carry On 4.14.09
"YBF has rolled out a luscious new lip treatment that can help you combat lip damage... additionally, QUENCH can be used for other areas. We tried it on our cuticles, dry patches on our elbows and knees, and on fine lines around our eyes overnight... The results? Softening, smoothing and soothing."
QUENCH Reformulated: The bottom line —
another winner for YBF| Jen @ About.com 4.6.09
"Quench uses the scientifically proven ingredient Lipochroman-6 which is one of the best anti-aging ingredients on the market. It also contains YBF's most prominent ingredient, spin trap. The color of the balm is white, and the consistency is nice and creamy. It doesn't pull or tug at your lips when you apply it."
Dare to Try It: The New QUENCH Lip Balm from YBF| Marta @ Truth In Aging 3.18.09
"I've been using new, improved Quench over the weekend and can report that clumping is a thing of the past. The texture is smooth and all is still intact. An exciting newcomer to the YBF oevre is lipochroman-6. This takes radical scavenging to a whole new level by going after reactive nitrogen species (RNS), which can cause cellular damage and oxidative damage to proteins."
Skincare Break - YBF Skincare| Angela @ Lipgloss Break 3.2.09
"I have very sensitive skin, which makes me a little nervous to try new skincare products. I heard great things about YBF... so I decided to give it a try. I tried YBF's Control and loved it. YBF Skincare has a product for everything on your wish list, ranging from anti-aging, oil control, wrinkle correction and improving complexion products."
Correct
Eye Cream In: Five Best Worth The Splurge| Marta @ Truth In Aging 2.11.09
"It has spin trap, a molecule that lasoos free radicals and puts them out to graze. Plus all my friends noticed that I was using a new eye cream and have since emailed me for the name. I'm on my third bottle."
YBF
Skincare Defend| Monique @ Beauty Girl Musings 2.05.09
"The gel is light and fast absorbing, and since it does such an amazing job of keeping the moisture level in my skin from getting too low — my skin stays fresh and well-balanced all day. I love this product — it's definitely on my highly recommended
list of products."
YBF Skincare Restore| Monique @ Beauty Girl Musings 1.23.09
"Over the past several months I have been able to see results from different products, but nothing has made such a huge improvement and worked as quickly as Restore in regards to improving my complexion. I wake up practically glowing, and am seeing my not-getting-any-younger skin looking better than it has in months."
Reviewed and Recommended: Control and Correct | Stan @ Truth In Aging 12.27.08
"After a week of use, I found the Control gave my skin an even, brighter tone. It felt and appeared smoother. Over the weeks it has gradually improved more. The Correct eye cream has definitely tightened the skin under my eyes and made it smoother as well. Since I have fair skin, there can be a tinge of dark blue showing through the translucent skin. I might not be exaggerating when I say that I have turned back the clock five or more years. Forgetting about time, I just feel better about my skin."
Spin Traps for everyone with YBF Skincare| Jami @ Bionic Beauty 12.09.08
"YBF has a small range of products but they pretty much cover all your needs. Pick the one that addresses your major skin issue and put it on your holiday wish list now. I honestly didn't think high-priced skincare was worth it, but some of these YBF products just shine."
Put "your best face" forward| Dana @ diva in a carry on 12.02.08
"Founders of Your Best Face Skincare, Darrell and Kimberley were ahead of the curve in creating this line of technology-based and tested multitasking skincare for men and women of all ages concerned with skin tone, discoloration and wrinkling."
On DEFEND: "I stay oil-free all day...and I mean ALL day. It does a good job of absorbing excess oil throughout the day and your skin will look balanced and natural."
"I've been trying out QUENCH for about a week and can report it protects from the harshest of winds, rapidly heals ragged lips, only requires a couple of applications a day and has a couple of good anti-agers. It's certainly much softer than your average chap stick, but, personally, I rather like the creamy texture."
On CORRECT Eye Cream: "It's their best seller for a reason, it works. I use it at night and all I can say is wow. Unbelievable. It takes care of the little fine lines, dark circles, and puffiness. I literally wake up everyday toundereyes that look well rested and...well...corrected."
"A good eye cream is probably the most effective weapon in one's anti-aging arsenal. Nothing will put the years on like crepe, crow's feet, drooping lids and dark circles. Interestingly, there is only one survivor from the last Five Best eye cream round up, Your Best Face Correct. I'm on my second bottle of this (bought with my own money, I'll have you know) and that must tell you something."
"Correct is my favorite product in the line. I have used all the best eye creams on the market and am totally hooked on this one. I actually even gave away my tube of Dermalogica that I was using because I love Correct so much! My eyes actually feel tighter as soon as I put it on, and it is by far the best product from YBF."
"In glossy magazine speak, here is the facial anti-aging regimen that I can't live without. SERUMS: Your Best Face Control for overall face and neck. EYES: I haven't yet found an eye cream to beat Your Best Face Correct."
"There are some new contenders that are so powerful that they have ousted three of the former Five Bests. Control has YBF's signature ingredient, spin trap. While spin trap is going after free radicals, matrixyl 3000 is promoting collagen growth, assisted by idebenone, another antioxidant with a good pedigree, and vitamins C and E."
"This is the best eye cream I have so far found. Honestly, the comments I get from friends since I started to use are almost embarrassingly complimentary."
"The texture of its serums and lotions are like silk and its light smell makes me think of almonds. Plus the products absorbed well into my skin and didn’t leave behind a greasy residue."
"I can sincerely testify that my face has never glowed this much in a long time - like second trimester pregnancy esque glow. I don't mean to give any textbook answers or cliches, but my skin is visibly firmer, smoother and healthy looking after using this product for nearly two months now."
Review: Correct Eye Cream, Control & Restore| Andrea @ I'm Not Obsessed! 10.01.08
On CORRECT: "I have to say this product really delivers!" On CONTROL: ..."this cream lived up to its claims." On RESTORE: ..."it managed to help diminish the sun spots on my nose and cheeks."

YBF Skincare Testimonials
"In my opinion, Restore is the most versatile and my favorite overall YBF product. It can be applied to the face, neck and eye area, moisturizing without being heavy, brightening very nicely, giving beautiful results, and it takes so little product to do it! If you buy only one YBF product, this is the one you want." — Sandra Mosley, Bowling Green, KY
"OMG I love your eye cream! It's phenomenal!" — Laurean Ossorio, New York, NY
"YBF is a fantastic skin care line. It does not matter what age you are, the
products are really for everyone. I'm 27 and I use the same products
from YBF that my mom does. As an actress I have to make sure that my
face looks good and taken care of, and I cannot live without the
products now. They are part of my everyday routine. My skin looks and
feels fantastic!!!" — Samantha Simkin, Chicago, IL
"I've
tried everything from the top shelf products at Neiman’s to
whatever my dermatologist was recommending and when it comes to my
skin, I'm willing to pay for results. Let me tell you, I was given
these product as a gift and this was one of the best gifts I've ever
received. I tried Control, Restore and Correct not knowing what to
expect. Now, I'm hooked. This is by far the best line of skin care
products money can buy. I thought I noticed a difference in the
mirror. But I knew it wasn't just my imagination when suddenly I
started getting random compliments on what nice skin I have. That's
never happened before. Needless to say, I AM ADDICTED! These products
are worth every penny." — Katie
Sandbach, Orlando, FL
"WOW!
These products are absolutely amazing. I started with the Restore and
Control, and was hooked. Then I tried the Correct. To be completely
honest, I've always had clear skin, but now my skin has that nice
healthy dewy glow. The compliments are rolling in. I work in
television and need to wear make-up to work everyday. This line is
perfect under make-up. It also works well by itself. If you want
beautiful skin, this is the magic potion!"
— Holly Bristow, Orlando,
FL
"My skin
is really looking gorgeous just from a few days of use. In particular
I love Defend because of my very oily skin and large pores." — Lisa James, Portland, OR
"I love
your product called CONTROL. It goes on so smooth and even. I mix it
with my liquid foundation and then apply it to my face and neck. It
gives my face a nice soft look and feel. It also tones my skin and
makes it look firmer. My skin looks great all day with no oily shine
and it smells great. This is the nicest skincare product I have ever
used! Thanks YBF!" — Shela Cline, Grand Rapids, MN
"I am so
happy with these products! They are the BEST skincare products I've
ever tried. I have adult acne, which is really common yet really hard
to deal with. All other products I've tried have worked to some
degree but with the side effect of dry skin. Very frustrating! With
YBF, my skin has never looked so good! And the products feel good to
use, and it all smells natural and fresh. Not medicinal, which is a
relief! I look forward to my skincare regime for the first time!"
— Roxanne Richardson, Osceola, WI
"My face
looks and feels great. I've been telling all my friends and family
about this wonderful product that I've been using." — Marie Diaz, Orlando, FL
"I am not
one for spending a lot of time on a skin routine. I have always done
the minimum in this area (wash face and apply moisturizer). Now that
I am a mother of a toddler, it seems I spend even less time on
myself. So, when I was asked to try the ybf products, I didn’t like
the idea of several different products simply because of the extra
time it would take. Within just a day or two though, I realized that
it is worth it! I wake up every morning looking forward to seeing my
face in the mirror…that hasn’t happened in a LONG time. Each day
I notice that my skin looks brighter, smoother, younger and
healthier. It truly is a pleasure to use the products. Now instead of
it being a “chore” it is more like a mini-spa morning! The
products feel incredible; like no other product I have used before. I
wish I could fill my bathtub and soak my entire body in this stuff!" — Lizabeth P., Katy, TX
"I
absolutely LOVE the products! I can honestly say that I use it almost
every day and have included it as part of my daily routine." — Jessica Brown, Orlando, FL
"I have
to say I LOVE your products. The silky-smooth texture made wearing a
moisturizer in a hot climate more than bearable. It absorbed very
quickly into my skin and didn't cause any irritations, breakouts, or
heaviness. My face was soft, smooth, and had a great texture and glow
to it. I have had problematic skin all my life and am always weary
about trying something new especially during such an eventful time,
but it didn't cause any problems for me. I am sensitive so irritation
happens frequently, but not in this case, and the products all smell
so amazing!" — Iris Bachman, Miami, FL
