I'm technically still a teenager, so I am still subject to the joys of teenage skin now and again. I tend to breakout out all at once rather than a couple of blemishes, so I needed something that could eliminate spots quickly and simply - excuse the pun! *Packaging* Inside the cardboard box, the thin tube is about half the size of a toothbrush, with a green lid and green and blue design on a white background. I like how it is consistent with all the other products in its range concerning design, which is very aesthetically pleasing. The screw on cap hides a metal roller ball, which is more hygienic than plastic dispensers but can hurt when rolling over ...  Read the complete review

I am a big fan of the Simple skincare range, which I've used since the age of twelve. I have really sensitive skin and this range is one of the few that I can use without my skin going red and itchy. Simple was first introduced with the aim of creating skincare suitable for sensitive skin, without perfume and colour.

The gel comes in a squeezy tube with a screw lid and then a metal roller ball which ...  Read the complete review

There are few things more depressing than having teenage spots and wrinkles, it's really not fair. I bought this product because it claimed to treat spots immediately and make an immediate improvement. The container is very convenient, it fits easily in a handbag so it's available to use at a moment's notice. It is applied by roll on which is extremely simple and controllable, and it's clear, so nobody know need know you've applied it. Does it work? It certainly makes the spot feel better. It's very cooling. I can't say I noticed an instant reduction in redness. It claims to have anti inflammatory and antiseptic effects so speeds the healing processing. It ...  Read the complete review
