Advantages: good value, smells great, seems to really work
Disadvantages: none
It has taken me a year and a half to discover this little wonder - but better late than never! When superdrug brought out their Natural High, Instant Radiance Balm, it was hailed as the poor girls' 'Clarins Beauty Flash Balm' (which is a celebrity favourite). At less than a quarter of the price, it was certainly worth a try. The pink and silver tube is shamelessly girly, but what the heck - I like it. The smell has been described as unusual as it contains some strange ingredients, including witch hazel. Personally I thought it was just like Turkish Delight - an aquired taste but one I certainly took to. It's probably best to give it a sniff before you buy it just in case you take an aversion to the scent as it is quite strong. Oh yes, and I nearly forgot - It works too! Yes, for your £3.95, you get a rather nice moisuriser, crossed between and gel and a cream. It goes on easily; feels really fresh and sinks in quickly. You can top it up if you think you'll be needing a bit extra, leave it as it is - or stick on lashings of the stuff and use it like a face pack. It seems to help perk up my skin making it look like I've had more sleep than I actually have. Dark circles are reduced quite a bit and skins glows like a baby's! After my usual two coats, it definitely lasts the distance. All in all, I think that this will be yet another beauty staple added to my list.

- 21/11/01 I have never seen this and it seems very cheap. If it is as good as you say then it is really good value. I must give it a try, although my black circled eyes may be beyond redemption!
