Advantages: Cleasing and refreshing, faint fruity smell, gentle, smooth and healthy skin.

Disadvantages: Does not live up to shine free all day, price.

Clean & Clear Morning Burst Shine Control Facial Scrub is part of my daily skin care routine and without it I would be totally lost. Why? Well, without using this product I am sure I would have more spots and terrible yucky skin. One time, I did run out of this and did not replace it for quite sometime as I thought I could do without this product now. Without it my skin just did not feel as clean as it once was, gained more spots and made my skin look terrible and greasy. Soon as I started using this product again my skin began to regain its smoothness and look somewhat healthy.

My skin is between oily and combination, prone to spots near time of month, skin gets greasy, but more so in summer. This product is ideal for daily use, it exfoliates but its gentle, its makes skin feel soft and smooth, refreshing - like it's been properly cleansed. Does not feel like it's getting a bit oily till a few hours after, so for me the shine free all day just did not workout.

Clean & Clear Morning Burst Shine Control Facial Scrub comes in a 150ml tube in a Lime green/light green colour, the best thing about this is you can see the actual product in the tube so you can tell when it is about to run out. It will last a long time if used carefully, think I purchased this in summer and still have a third of the tube left. Be careful when squeezing the product out, a whole lot of it will come out, in fact I am still scooping bits of it from the top to use.

The product it self is what I can only describe as washing powder in a clear gel. It is said to contain lemon grass and fruit extracts, I can't really notice the lemon grass but it does smells slightly fruity but not overpowering. Directions are to wet face and gently massage all over face. It produces a good lather and you should be careful when washing off as bits of the gel gets stuck round the eyes so rinse well before you attempt to open them.

It costs just under £4 but places like Asda and Boots have any 2 for £5 offers in the clean & clear range.

Summary: Great facial scrub but fails on shine free control.
