Advantages: Gets rid of large pores and blackheads, cheap, smells nice
Disadvantages: None!

...toner ran out (a disastrous Boots one) and I had to buy a new one! Off I went to Boots, and i had a look around the Botanics section to see if any caught my eye. This little badboy did. With something like Amazonian clay extract and rosemary extract, how could I argue? And for £2.99? I was running to buy it! To be honest, it takes a couple of weeks to really make a noticeable change, but boy, does it make a change! Use it both morning and night ...
...blackheads around my nose and forehead had shrunk to almost nothing!! I was delighted! The only thing is, you have to carry on using it to keep other large pores from reforming and so spots etc are kept at bay, but for £2.99 its a very cheap and fantastic skin routine in my opinion! Perfect for those with oversized pores and/or blackheads or oily skin as it also targets shine problems too! Brilliant! ... Read review

...cream three times a day may help keep your skin problems at bay but I have often found that it can lead into a breakout of spots or cause my nose area to be very greasy. It also takes a while to soak in so your skin feels oily after use. ***Does it Sooth skin?*** When used regularly the cream can be really effective and did help keep my eczema at bay but when I used facial wipes I found that my eczema came back and the cream usually found it hard ...

Advantages: Calms down redness, Does work
Disadvantages: Dries out skin, Not the miracle spot cream, expensive

So i was eager to try freederm, i bought the gel rather than the lotion. I used it day and night, quite a lot at night and i'd say it is good for spots but i wouldn't say its ideal for acne. It calms down the redness and inflammation of the spot overnight, but dosen't completely get ...
