Monat Be Gentle and Purified Skin Care Review

I review Monat products on a regular basis.  And my priority in giving reviews is to make sure you have accurate information to make an educated decision.  Whether it be to purchase or not, we all want to have truthful and accurate information.  This review will be no different.  So let’s dive into reviewing Monat’s Be Gentle and Purified Skin Care Systems!

**All clinical information provided by Monat Global, review and opinions are my own!

Monat’s Promise for all their Products!

All of Monat’s products (including their hair care AND natural skincare line) are 100% vegan. They do not contain any animal-based ingredients, including honey and beeswax. Instead, they use plant-based ingredients to stay true to the meaning behind their name: Modern Nature.

Monat launched in 2014 with the mission of providing exceptional, naturally based, anti-aging and confidence-inspiring products.  The hair care line is gluten-free, non-toxic and so much more! They are giving us that same promise in the Monat vegan skincare products too!

The Monat skincare line is:

  • Vegan
  • Cruelty-Free
  • Dermatologist Approved
  • Ophthalmologist Approved
  • Allergy Tested
  • Clinically Tested*
  • No toxins!  Does NOT contain SLS/SLES, Parabens or Phthalates

Be Gentle Skincare System
Monat Be Gentle and Purified Skin Care Review

Be Gentle System

The Be Gentle System targets dry, sensitive skin. Skin that feels tight and is easily irritated would benefit from this system.  Also, it provides age control and assists with softening tough, dull-looking skin with prolonged use.

The Be Gentle System includes the following three products when bought as a system.  However, each product can also be purchased separately.

  • Creamy Cleanser
  • Skin Revitalizing Essence
  • Nourishing Moisturizer

Be Gentle Creamy Cleanser

The Be Gentle Cleanser is the first step in this system.  It gently removes impurities and environmental elements without stripping your skin. It also softens and smooths by releasing trapped make-up, surface oil and dead surface cells.

This is the system I am currently using.  I started with the Be Balance System, which you can read more about HERE!  But I changed over to the Be Gentle System as that worked better with my skin type!  I have been using it for over 6 months, and love all the products with this system!

Monat Skin Revitalizing Essence Review

The Skin Revitalizing Essence is a lightweight toner that has the proper mix of hydrating, skin-replenishing and anti-aging ingredients. This product is to be used both morning and night.  After cleansing, pour into hands and gently press onto the face, neck and decolletage. Allow the product to fully absorb prior to applying your and moisturizer.

Monat Skin Revitalizing Essence Benefits

This natural skincare product will smooth, soften and visibly lessen wrinkles for brighter and naturally, glowing skin!  Additionally, as it tones, conditions and soothes it is preparing the skin for the next steps on the Monat skincare routine.

Be Gentle Nourishing Moisturizer

This Be Gentle Moisturizer is an excellent product that multitasks for you.  It infuses the skin with moisture and nutrients, all day long!  It provides your skin with the needed hydration retention while helping to firm and shield skin from environmental elements.  Giving it a healthy, natural glow.

Some of the areas this nourishing moisturizer targets are:

  • Dry and sensitive skin
  • Skin that lacks hydration
  • Loss of firmness and elasticity
  • Skin that lack softness

I use this as my daytime moisturizer and then I apply the Overnight Age Control Cream as my evening routine.  If you decide to give this system a try, I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Monat Rewind Age Control Nectar Review

Monat’s Rewind Age Control Nectar is described as a “supercharged” serum.  It “floods” the skin with a combination of ingredients to tackle uneven skin tone, loss of elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles.

You use it as an evening application.  After soaking into the skin it rejuvenates over night.  It has Rejuveniqe S (Monat’s crown jewel product!) natural fruit acids, peptides and hyaluronic acid just to name a few of the ingredients! Rewind embodies Monat’s promise to deliver effective, naturally-based, anti-aging products.

Monat Rewind Age Control Nectar Benefits

The regular use of these ingredients will naturally brighten and improve overall skin function.

  • Fines lines, wrinkles and texture
  • Environmentally damaged skin
  • Dryness, dullness and uneven skin tone
  • Loss of elasticity
  • Age control

60 Day Rewind Age Control Nectar Review

This product I have been using for over 60 days.  It was one of the first products I purchased. And I have to say, it is doing a fabulous job!  Furthermore, I have always been a product snob, especially when it came to skincare. I have a lot of sun damage as I grew up along the Jersey shore and worshipped the sun in my younger years!  So when Monat came out with natural skincare, I was skeptical. Additionally, I really did not think it would help my damaged skin.

But after 30 days of using the products, they were maintaining what I had been doing.  However, after 60 days I realized my “11” (I must scrunch my face a lot!) is slowly diminishing!  Which is AMAZING!

**Please note that I don’t think this product is a “must-have” unless you are trying to correct serious sun damage or if you are older and need assistance with anti-aging.  The cleanser, essence and daytime moisturizer are fabulous by themselves if you are young or have minimal sun damage.

Be Purified Skin Care System
Monat Be Gentle and Purified Skin Care Review

Be Purified System

The Be Purified System is for oily skin individuals.  So I have not tried this system.  I tend to have dry/sensitive skin so this will not work for me.  However, I wanted to give you some background so you can make the best choice for you!

Be Purified Clarifying Cleanser

The Be Purified Clarifying Cleanser is a gentle and refreshing cleanser that contains botanical ingredients to gently reduce excess oil and unclog pores without drying the skin.  It cleanses and hydrates the skin.  Does not strip the skin and assists in reducing shine for up to 8 hours.

Charcoal mask

Be Purified Cold Charcoal Mask

The Be Purified Cold Charcoal Mask has a unique blend of cooling, rich clays and purifying charcoal to assist in refining pores and providing a deep cleansing for your skin. It is ideal for those how need to consistently unclog pores and absorb excess oils.  Additionally, it is gentle enough for sensitive skin.

How to Use

Apply a small amount to your fingertips and apply evenly to dry, clean skin.  Allow to dry for 1-15 minutes and rinse off with warm water.  It is to be used 1-2 times a week.

Be Purified Moisturizer
Monat Skin Care Be Purified System

Be Purified Oil-Free Moisturizer

Here is a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer which will help to minimize visible shine and still gives skin a healthy glow!  The Be Purified Moisturizer will keep your skin hydrated all day but provides a matte finish to reduce shine.  And it helps soothe the skin.

This is ideal for anyone that wants a fast-absorbing moisturizer, needs to reduce shine and restores the skin’s natural moisture balance.

**Again, I want to emphasize that I have not used the Be Purified System as it is not the proper product for my skin type.  But if it is anything like the other Vegan skincare products, I am sure it is amazing!

Suggested Use

It is suggested for best results to use the systems (whichever works best for you) both morning and night.  I incorporate the Overnight Cream at night with the Botanic Bakuchiol: Vegan Retinol.  And have been extremely pleased with the results! Just imagine how your skin will look in six months’ time once you have implemented some of these products!

    I have never tried Monat, but it has all of my main requirements for skincare, like being cruelty free and without toxins. My skin is sensitive, so I will definitely look more into the Be Gentle system. Thanks for such a thorough review!

    I’m intrigued by the one for sun damage. Ever since I became a runner about 6 years ago I’ve spent way more time outside (often in the sun) than I used to and I think it is starting to show on my skin. Would love to use something that combat that a little!

      You definitely need the Sun Veil! It is excellent for preventing sun damage!
