Skin Ceuticals Clarifying Clay Masque
by walsha11 This is another of my recent skin ceuticals purchases. I would say this is one of the products I am moderately happy with. It is the lower end of the price range within the brand (which was probably part of the appeal) and I do love a face mask so I knew I had to try it. The design of the product is rather simple, like most ... of the items in this brand. I like the fact that they focus more on the product than the way it looks because this gives me faith that the product will be of a high quality. The pot is lightly frosted with a silver metal lid that twists on and off. I like the jar design as it makes it really easy to get all of the product out of the container. I also think the lid is very good as it feels secure and I would not be nervous travelling with it. I also like the simplicity of the design, it looks expensive without being gimmicky or gaudy and would certainly make an excellent looking gift for someone. The masque uses mostly natural ingredients, kaolin clay and bentonite are some of them, to help reduce oiliness in skin and create a fresh, youthful effect. It is very effective in terms of leaving your face feeling fresh and healthy. I'm not sure I can comment at the reduction in oiliness as I do not suffer from oily skin. However, the product does leave my skin feeling dry afterwards so I would imagine it does work as it says. After removing the masque my skin does feel tighter and perhaps a little dry. I do generally moisturise straight away afterwards to combat this and it doesn't really present a major problem for me as I only use the product once a week. I think if you used it more regularly you might find it leaves your skin feeling a little dry and dehydrated, but then I wouldn't advise using it this regularly if only because of the price. It makes my skin feel instantly smoother and gives me a lovely even complexion. I found it sensitive to my skin which can sometimes be dry and irritable. I would advise testing the product if you do suffer from sensitive skin as the price means it is quite an investment. However, based on my experiences I never found it to irritate my skin. I was a little apprehensive before using this product that the clay might make it particularly flakey and would basically create an absolute mess. I was pleasantly surprised to find a very smooth creamy consistency to the product that dries hard but does not flake. It is very easy to apply to your face and can be left for anything between 5-20 minutes depending on how deep you want your skin cleansed. It washes off very easily although it does take a couple of goes with some water to remove it all. The product is roughly £28 for a 60 ml pot. This is probably where my problem with the product lies. I do think it is a quality product but I know for a fact there are cheaper face masks on the shelves which offer probably a similar level of quality. It doesn't stand out enough for it to warrant such a high price and that is very disappointing. So, overall? I wouldn't buy it again but I am happy I tried it. Read the complete review |

Skin Ceuticals Equalizing Toner Pore Refining Toner
by walsha11 Another of my recently purchased and reviewed Skin Ceuticals products - and this one if a firm favourite. I actually don't tend to use a toner regularly and I think the fact that I liked it so much anyway reflects well on the product. The product comes in a white plastic bottle with black spray pump and clear lid. The design ... is inoffensive and functional. The fact that the product has such a simple design and yet such a large price makes me immediately assume all the money is spent of refining and perfecting a great product. This isn't a gimmicky product designed to make you spend more than you need to, they create a simple design and great product in the hope that once you've tried it you'll be hooked, and I think I am. My immediate reaction to the toner is the smell - it is described as fragrance free but I don't think that is strictly true. It does have a smell though not one that is easily distinguishable, it smells synthetic almost and this is probably due to the different chemicals used in the product. I don't actually find the smell particularly offensive but I think for a more expensive product they could probably do with adding a light floral note to it just to make it a little more pleasant. That said, it did not put me off using the product at all. The spray pump is very effective at dispensing the toner mist over your face. I think it is far easier to use than other similar products because all you need is the spray, rather than an array of additional things to apply it with. I liked the feel of the product, it is not at all oily or greasy and feel very light and refreshing. It is a great product for summer or holidays but I think if you used it in winter it might dry out your skin. It absorbs into the skin pretty quickly leaving you with soft skin that can have other products applied to it within 5 minutes. Overall I really like the effect if has on my skin. It seems to visibly reduce pores, and this is not even a problem I particularly suffer from. It also makes my skin look younger and brighter and gives me a great even base upon which I can apply my makeup. Like many of the skin ceutical product I find them good for sensitive skin, I often have quite dry skin and this product did not irritate any broken parts. I think if you do have sensitive skin it is always advisable to test the product before purchasing where possible because if you invest in this one and it does irritate your skin you have paid quite a lot for it. That said, based on my experience I would say that it is sensitive to irritated skin. The price for this product is £28 for 240ml. There is no denying there are cheaper products on the market but I have to say having never really used a toner consistently before because I've never found a good one this is definitely a more effective product. You are paying for quality which in this case I am happy to do. I would buy it again because it does wonders for my skin. Read the complete review |

Skin Ceuticals Gentle Cleanser
by jjrose I'm one of those unlucky teenagers who have problems with facial skin. I have been battling acnes and red spots ever since I hit puberty. Compared to 2 years ago, my facial skin is looking better but I have to make sure that I choose the right products for my skin to keep the acnes as minimal a problem as possible. This is when I was ... recommeded the above product by one of my friends. I bought this product quite some time ago per my friend's suggestion and also since I've got some gift vouchers. The Skin Ceuticals gentle cleanser comes in a white plastic bottle with a black nozzle that has press-and-pump action similar to lotion bottles. The bottle is simple in design and the pump is quite smooth, so I have no problems trying to get the pump to work. I've paid around £20.00 for a 240 ml bottle of this cleanser from amazon.co.uk. Personally, I think it's a bit pricey for a facial cleanser but the quantity you get is twice as much compared to some other cleansers. As for how it works, I usually use one to two pumps in the showers and this is enough to clean my face if I have a light layer of make-up on. However, after a long day at uni, my face gets really oily and I would have to wash my face twice to get all the make-up and oil off my face. One problem I have is that it doesn't really clean my eye make-up, especially it leaves dark smudges of eye liner and it is really frustrating to see the panda eyes when I come out of the shower. In retrospect, I think it is because this cleanser is aiming for a gentle touch and maybe removing eye make-up effectively requires some heave duty chemicals. From my experience, I think the product does leave my skin smooth and clean without any irritation. The main reason I started using this product to tone down my acnes and spots; but after using this product for two months, it doesn't really feel that the product has any significant affects in controlling the acnes. In my opinion, I think it is a good cleanser for normal sensitive skin; it just doesn't do a good job in terms of keeping acnes at bay. I finished this product about 3 months ago and since then I've started to use a different type of cleanser. From my experience, having a good night sleep and good eating habits have a great influence in reducing the acnes. Therefore, I think choosing the right cleanser is important but there are other factors at play in my case. The product from Skin Ceuticals didn't leave me disappointed but I'm not entirely impressed by its performance, especially since the price is quite high and I expect it to deliver well. Nevertheless, this product might the right one for someone with the right skin type, so I wouldn't rule this out completely. Thank you for reading. :) x Read the complete review |
