skin kit for great soft skn

Advantages: softens skin
Disadvantages: some dry patches on my face s left

...normal/oily I came across Dermalogica through a friend and seen this brand sold in salons, promoting facials. My skin started to break out with loads of spots just after Christmas and my current products by clinique was not working for me. My friend said Dermalogica is good even though she hasn’t used it. I seen products raved in magazine. So I thought give it a chance. I also did research I was about to buy Kanebo skincare products which has an ...

Review of Dermalogica Medicated Clearing Gel

Stings on sensitive skin, not effective on medium spots

Advantages: Not too expensive, contains lots of pads, easily available
Disadvantages: Stung badly on sensitive skin and didn't appear to help my skin

...haven't had any luck with Clearasil before, but decided to give it a go, who knows... I've come to the conclusion that Clearasil are a company aimed at helping people with very mild skin issues. If you suffer from reoccuring problems, or something more serious, I wouldn't recommend them. Anyway, the product itself. It smells very strong when you're up close to it, but in a way this is reassuring, you think it's going to zap your spots away! I was ...
...it stung, a lot!! I didn't have open sores or anything, but my skin is sensitive, and these pads are certainly not made for sensitive skin. There are a lot of pads inside, and I didn't consider it expensive overall. I used them in the evening over 4 days, and promptly gave up when I saw no noticeable improvement, nor could stand the acidic stinging! So, be careful when choosing this product... Not for sensitive skins, or medium/severe spots. Summary: ...

Review of Clearasil Ultra Deep Pore Treatment Pads

Spot off Oxy

Advantages: Not expensive compared to other products, widely available
Disadvantages: For me, totally uneffective

...was a big range of Oxy products on sale. I started applying it in evenings after washing my face. It didn't overly sting which was nice. I did this over a week or so and saw nothing notable. Spots had not subsided, redness still there, still painful. So, I applied it in the morning as well. Started getting really dry face (think I went a bit far in the hope that too much was better than not enough!!!) and, again, no real visible benefits. After 5 ...

Review of Oxy On The Spot Cream

Very expensive for what you get :(

Advantages: Convenient size bottle to take away (that's all I can think of really...!)
Disadvantages: Price and lack of results

I had read everything good about these products, all the celebrity reviews and got totally swept away!!! Anyway, bought this product a few months ago and used it over the two months following. It didn't over sting which was nice, but for me, it just wasn't effective. I know everyone has different skin and reacts in different ways, but I had such high hopes for this treatment. It started by drying a few of my spots but my skin seemed to just get used ...
