...Anyone who knows me well will know how seriously I take skincare. I have a daily skin routine verging on religious not to mention a dressing table that could rival any beauty counter in say Harrods or Selfridges. Over the years I have become loyal to one brand in particular, Lancôme. I own just about everything in the range that my skin could possibly require, multiple cleansers, toners, moisturisers, eye gel, you name it. The latest addition to my collect is the newly revamped ‘SPOT CONTROLE’ and yes folks I wasn’t disappointed.
Being 29 I would have expected my skin to have stopped breaking out in blemishes, the ironic thing is there is no monthly pattern, no warning just ‘SPLAT’, a nice collection of spots just in time for a big night out or that crucial first date. Even as a teenager I never had a problem with spots and okay...

Advantages: Brilliant results, One tube lasts a long time, scientifically tested Disadvantages: Visible even under make-up, quite expensive, stings on application
...I was converted to Clinique's Clear BlemishGel 8 years ago when working two jobs and pretty tired out, I suddenly developed a good crop of facial spots! At first I went for the cheaper products such as Clearasil which I had used as teenager years before, but I found these type of products just burned my skin, made it dry, flaky and more inflammed. Desperate for a solution I shopped around and stumbled apon Clinique's BlemishGel.
They lady at the counter, who had skin to die for, took a look at my spots and said, 'I have something that will sort this out for you really quickly'. She started to cleanse all the cover-up off my spots and then looked at me and said 'This may sting a little!' She squirted a little of the gel out on to a Q-tip and applied this to a cluster of spots. In the first few seconds the gel just felt cool...

Advantages: smells delicious, works amazingly fast, reasonably priced Disadvantages: none at all!
...Spot on is an essential oil for spots, cuts grazes and bites. Just apply it twice a day, and within 12 hours you will notice a difference.
Its ingredients are all natural and it is water and alcohol free.
It contains natural vitamin E and pure essential oils of tea tree, melissa and lavender.
This is a fast acting solution to those irritating spots that appear just at the wrong time like before parties or going out!
A couple of dabs of this and they will be visibly reduced within no time.
I frequently use spot-on, and its gorgeous smell and fast acting encourages me to use it more and more!
I have recommended it to many friends, and they have all found it also works wonders on them!
It is quite reasonably priced at £7.50, and it is ideal to carry with you in its handy pocket sized bottle. The roller ball bottle...

This concentrated blemish gel claims to soothe and protect after cleansing and exfoliation, and at £12.50 for 15ml, I sure hoped so.
The cover gel comes in a very small clear tube with a long thin screw-top lid. The packaging is understated, unisex,... more

After getting paid, I took a trip to my Clinique counter after reading a couple of reviews on this product. All the reviews praised this product and said how great it was, although they all stated it did dry your skin out. I'm willing to give more
My trip to clinique a couple of months ago was fruitful to say the least as well as expensive, but anyway I wanted something to back up my anti blemish solutions cleansing foam as my hormones were kicking out some nasty spots. I saw this product and... more
