Advantages: Great for sensitive skin

Disadvantages: Seperates after about a month

I bought this product because I had a voucher for £5 off No7 at Boots and it cost less than £5! I think that it must have been on some additional promotion as other reviewers paid more than this. The product was in a 75ml transparent tube with golden writing, this is fairly standard for No7 products. As with all No7 products it is hypoallergenic, so great for those with sensitive skin.

I didn't have any expectations of this product before I used it, I was curious to see if it really could exfoliate despite having 'no grains' which is what you would expect in a typical facial exfoliator.

The product itself was very creamy and I found that you needed to use very little in order to wash your whole face and neck. I was really surprised that it actually did exfoliate and left my face feeling smooth and clean (I have come across a few exfoliators which don't even remove your make-up properly!). My skin did feel a little tight afterwards, but I do have very dry skin, however after applying my usual amount of moisturiser it felt fine again.

The only thing I'm not too keen with this product is that within a month of me buying it, it had started to seperate out, and no amount of shaking would make it look like it used to! I'm not sure whether I would buy it again for this reason (unless I get another No7 voucher) as although it seems alright to use I'm just not quite sure about it

Summary: It works and works well, just not convinced about it seperating!
