Soap & Glory The Fab Pore 15 Minute Facial Peel

I had it all planned out in my head what I was going to say about this product, "Biggest waste of money" "You might as well throw £5.88 down the drain!" but after exercising my prerogative to change my mind, I now have a some what different point of view! First and foremost, this face mask probably isn't what you first think, when you first see the word peel you imagine it to be one of those masks that set and then is peeled off in a somewhat taking a layer of glue off way....and usually your eyebrows along with it! But no, it's not a peel in that sense, it's a peel that removes dead skin cells as it is washed off due to the ingredients ...  Read the complete review

After my disastrous first foray into face mask in a tube from Simple (see review!), I decided to try once more rather than stick to messy single-use sachets. After a little research, the Fab Pore mask kept cropping up again and again and I decided it would be a good product to first try the Soap and Glory range. The range can be found in Boots or Harvey Nichols, and features kitsch packaging, punny names and from what I've heard the products are pretty damn good too. The Fab Pore is left on the skin for 15 minutes for a "facial peel" with "exclusive "PORESHRINK-R COMPLEX". I know, ooh ahh. I will mention that the ...  Read the complete review

Soap and Glory is a trusted brand of mine, I've never had a product of theirs and not like it. They always seem to hit the nail on it's head with all their products. The Fab Four Facial Peel certainly isn't an exception to my little rule. I'm constantly looking for the next best product for my skin, when I saw this on the shelf promising to refine my pores I thought 'Why not!' Like I said, I trust the Soap and Glory brand and couldn't wait to get home to try my new potion! ::The Packaging:: Soap and Glory Facial Peel comes in a 50g white tub, with the Soap and Glory Skincare logo printed on the screw on lid with 'The Fab Pore Facial Peel' written on a ...  Read the complete review

The Fab Pore is described on the packaging as an "intensive-action pore refining facial peel". Sounds pretty scary, I think, using the words 'intensive' and 'peel' - makes me think of Samantha from Sex & the City when her facial peel goes a bit awry! Anyway, the packagaing is typically lovely, as you'd expect from Soap & Glory. The active ingredients are as follows * FOMES OFFICINALIS EXTRACT: A mushroom extract to tighten pores. * SALICYLIC ACID: which loosens up the dead cells that contribute to pore clogging * KAOLIN: That's 'cosmetic' for clay. It sops up extra oil on your skin and smoothes your skin's ...  Read the complete review
