Advantages: Nice bottle and design, decent value
Disadvantages: Not for my skin type! gave me more spots!
introduction:
I tried this when it first came out, they re-branded there old design and released this. I went through a stage of really liking exfoliating fash wash as i felt it really got rid of a lot of dirt from under my skin. The reason I tried this was because it was the cheapest face wash on the shelf at the time. This was released at half price to get people using it. This never really agreed with my skin and I will now explain why.
Price:
I paid only £1 for a 150ml bottle of this, it is now retailing at £2 for a bottle. This is still competitivly priced alonside the other braded products on the shelf. However sometimes the branded products are on offer to a similar price of this stuff. The bottle is made out of soft plastic which is easy to squeeze out the wash from inside it. There is a cap which flips open and a small hole for the facial scrub to come out of. Overall the price and general look of the product is actually very nice, the pattern on the facial scrub bottle is very pleasent to look at, it doesn't remind you of a typical supermarket own brand product.
Did it work?:
This did not agree with my skin at all, I used this for 3 weeks and really didnt see any improvement in my skin. I noticed that I had few blackheads on my nose, yet I had more spots on my cheeks, chin, forehead and a few on my jaw. I also noticed that it was making me scar and look red after use. I didn't rub very hard with it. I wasn't impressed with its spot fightin capabilities. However after I used this on my face it felt clean, yet a little dry. I have rather sensitive skin and this really wasn't for me. I did persevere with it as I wanted to use all that I paid for! Wish I didnt as it wasn't benfiting my skin in any way shape or form.
Overall:
This product was a let down for me, it felt nice to touch and had small exfolaiting beeds in it, but they didnt seem to do anything for me. I have read that exfoliating can give you more spots so I dont think I will be using this again. The overall cost and branding is good, but whats inside the bottle never pleased me. However this could work for your skin type, people react different to products and this may work wonders for you.
this gets 2 stars from me, very dissapointed! was hoping for better. I will next be trying the plain tesco facial wash, it may be better than the exfoliating one so watch out for a review soon.
