Advantages: Works well, Vitamins, Good quality face wash

Disadvantages: Pricey

Since I have been using the Simple Hydrating Moisturiser, I also picked up this facial wash at the same time for a special offer, as they are recommended to be used together for best results. This product works really well, leaving you with healthy and smooth skin, at the same time as giving your skin beneficial vitamins at the same time. Simple make superb products and are experts in skin care, and I trust them so you should too.

Look

The standard 150ml product comes in a soft container with a circular base where the lid is, and a straight flattened top in the same shape as many other creams and beauty products. The Simple logo is clearly on the top at the front of the container with 'Moisturising facial wash' just below. It also notes that the active ingredients: Pro-Vitamin B5 and Vitamin E' are present in the product. It is made clear that the product is 100% soap free with no added perfume or colour.

On the back are the ingredients, directions for use and a little extra information from Simple. The active benefits, as quoted from the container are as follows:

* Pro-Vitamin B5 - restores, softens and smoothes skin
* Vitamin E - moisturises and improves skin condition
* 100% Soap Free - non drying, leaving skin soft and supple
* pH Balanced - works in harmony with your skin

The facial wash itself has a somewhat thick consistency. It is sort of translucent and an off-white colour. When rubbed in your hands with water, a foamy mixture is made, which is very bubbly.

Smell
~~~~

The smell is a bit stronger than some of their other products, but still weak because there is no added perfume to give a scent to the facial wash. The smell is best described as a weak perfume anyway, with the scent of flowers. The smell is very weak, but is defiantly noticeable when being used. I find the smell pleasurable and lovely to use due to it.

How to use
~~~~~~~

The facial wash is easy to use. You simply apply it to wet hands and rub thoroughly to get some bubbles going. Once it has turned all foamy, apply it to your face and massage in slowly and carefully. If you get this in your eyes, which I once did, then rinse out well with warm water and if they still irritate after then consult your doctor. It is easy to used, like any other moisturiser. It leaves you with smooth feeling skin that has the added benefit of vitamins. Rather than tight and hard skin, this facial wash leaves you feeling refreshed and clean.

The good thing about this product is that it is very suitable for sensitive skin, so you should have no allergic reaction to this product. There is no guarantee that you will have no reaction to this product, but it is defiantly suitable for most people's skin

Price
~~~~

You can buy this 150ml bottle for just under £4.00 at boots. I would recommend buying it from Boots, because they commonly offer deals, such as you can buy another Simple product with it for half price. You also get the added bonus of points on your Boots club card, which can later be used to buy more products from Simple, or anything as a matter of fact. I would say the price is a bit hefty considering what it is, but it does an excellent job.

Final Comments
~~~~~~~~~~

I would defiantly recommend this to anyone. It cleans your face well, leaving you feeling refreshed and clean. It also feeds vitamins to your skin and is good for you. It is all natural of colour and perfume, making it more Simple. It is rather pricey, but does pay off as it lasts quite a long time. I would still say that this product could still be cheaper. It is easily available to buy at any Boots store or good pharmacist.
