...gentle exfoliant from the salon-only Gatineau range. The very fine exfoliating beads are contained in a rich thick cream, which moisturises surprisingly effectively as it gently cleanses. There's also a lovely smell and skin feels better for days afterwards. It's also good for normal skins who like a gentle product and anyone who suffers from sensitivity problems ... Read review

Advantages: great results
Disadvantages: price

I have been using Gatineau for 2 years now and could not live without it. (I even have travel sizes for when I am away) I mainly use the Melotagenie which is for "older" women. Cleanser and toner: silky to the skin. I sometimes put the cleanser onto a cotton wool pad to make it go further. You can actually see the dirt (yuk).

Advantages: Lasts a lon time an is reasonably priced - looks nice
Disadvantages: Made my skin feel sore and tight

The majority of my Lush purchases are soaps and other bath products but as I was using so much from Lush I decided to try some facial care products from them too. As my skin is very sensitive on my face I thought it would be best to go and speak to a Lush assistant and ask which cleanser would be most suited for my skin type, I was advised to try Fresh Farmacy and was given a massive 55g sample to take away and try so that I could ensure it was ...

The assistant in Lush informed me that the bar contains Calamine lotion which is often used to treat chicken pox and other skin rashes which cause itching and discomfort because it soothes and reduces inflammation and has antiseptic properties, however I found that my skin actually began to feel sore and itchy having used the product.

Advantages: It does exactly what it says on the tin (well bottle!)
Disadvantages: None that I've found.

...of my new purchases was Clean and Clear's Blackhead Clearing Cleanser which promised results from day one. The back of the bottle informs me that this has been 'specially formulated to start acting against blackheads from day 1. It removes oil, dirt and dead cells trapped deep in the pores - the impurities that can lead to blackheads. It also contains a blackhead fighting ingredient and helps prevent blackheads from coming back.' So far so good. ...
...after just one use of Clean and Clear Blackhead Clearing Cleanser! Well done Johnsons for actually living up to your claims. I've since continued using this cleanser and I do think the blackheads on my nose are getting less and less noticeable. I also like that it makes my skin feel fresh and tight after washing with a foaming cleanser. Clean and Clear Blackhead Cleaning Cleanser comes in a 200ml clear purple bottle. I paid £1.98 in Tesco where ... Read review
