Soothing Protection Spray

Advantages: It really works, lasts ages
Disadvantages: None

...I bought this after using and loving the Multi-active toner, but finding that it didn't soothe my skin when I needed it to. It costs around £21 for a 250ml bottle, but as usual shop around and you may be able to find it cheaper. Dermalogica say this ultra-calming spray is formulated with their exclusive 'Anti-Ozonate Complex' to protect skin from reactive ozone while botanicals immediately reduce irritation, redness and inflammation. It shields skin from further environmental assault caused by temperature extremes, pollution, irritating cosmetic products, harsh detergents, chemical exposure, stress, poor diet or hormonal factors. Soothing Green Tea, Canadian Willow Herb, Cucumber, Liquorice and Raspberry extracts deliver potent anti-itching, healing and antioxidant properties. It contains no artificial fragrance or colour, and is...

Elemis Soothing Apricot Toner

Advantages: soothes, rebalances pH levels
Disadvantages: Can be considered expensive

...approach to skincare has led them to blend medical grade plant and marine actives, nurturing Milk Proteins and clinically proven skin compatible bases for theraputic products with serious results. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Why I brought this product ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I had a facial at an Elemis Spa, it was lovely, the best facial I've ever had. This is why I have been such a religious user of Elemis products. After the facial, the therapist sat down with me and gave me a list of products she had used on me, and recommended products. As the products were quite expensive and I didn't already use a cleanser and toner I thought I would start with them, so I purchased both the suitable cleanser and toner from the salon - Soothing Camomile Cleanser and Soothing Apricot Toner. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What the product looks like...

Review of Elemis Soothing Apricot Toner

Soothing, smoothing..... perfect for snogging!

Advantages: Instant relief.
Disadvantages: None!!!

...After using Blisteeze for many years, I recommended it to my husband who is suffering at the moment with the most horrendous, what can only be described as burns across his top lip. He dutifully started slapping on the lip cream, but to no avail, so I was of course sent shopping on the lookout for something that may ease his pain, that is how I came across the product I will now review. The product I will now review is "Blistex soothing splash". As I said before I have no problem at all recommending Blisteeze, so after seeing they had a new product on the market, I was more than keen to see if it helps. The product comes in a slightly different form, as the cream comes in a small tube I was expecting this to be the same, I was of course wrong! Upon opening the extortionately large cardboard box/ sleeve, I was surprised to find...

KOOL 'N' SOOTHE

Advantages: simple to use, effective when used on children, can be placed anywhere on body
Disadvantages: doesnt help at all with my migraines, quite pricey, doesnt last for the time it says on the box

...WHAT ARE THEY? Kool 'n' soothe are gel sheets designed to provide cooling relief on your forehead during a headache or migraine. They can be used for children and adults and contain no medicine. The strips do not need to be kept in a fridge or cooled down in anyway so they are ready to use as soon as a headache or temperature strikes. HOW DO THEY DO IT? The gel in the cool and soothe strip contains mainly water which evapourates from the hot temperate of the skin which causes a cooling effect on the skin underneath the strip. WHAT DO THEY LOOK LIKE? Each individual strip is approximately 4 and a half inches long and 2 and a half inched wide. The strips consist of a rectangular piece of soft white material which has a large rectangular patch of blue coloured...

Review of Kool 'n' Soothe

Soothe my skin!

Advantages: Feels fresh and soothing, suitable for sensitive skin
Disadvantages: Doesnt really tighten pores, nothing to get excited about

...Having previously reviwed the Simple eye make up remover and passing it with flying colours, my interest in the simple range has grown and a couple of months ago i bought the Simple Soothing Toner. What is Toner? Well the beauty industry states that for healthy and bright complexion you should clense, tone and moisturise everyday. Loads of my friends are always saying they havent really got a clue what toner does for your skin or why it is needed and many feel it is a con to convince you to buy a toner as part of a three step skin system. Well toner apparently removes the last traces of clenser from your skin. Some toners also help to tighten the pores and prepare the suface for the application of moisturiser. This can be achieved by using a splash of cold water or using some form of astringent such as rose water. The Simple...

Mismatched with the Soft and Soothed Cleanser

Advantages: A lot in the bottle
Disadvantages: Certainly doesn't hydrate your skin

...I bought this toner solely because I'd sampled the Soft and Soothed Cleanser that the No7 range also offers in the past and I'd been impressed. Having spent the years between the age of 11 and 24 trying all sorts on my acne-prone skin (from homeopathic remedies to essential oils to prescription items containing peroxide) I believed my skin had finally calmed down enough that I could safely get into a more traditional "skincare routine". So what are the basics, I thought? Yes - cleanse, tone, moisturise. I knew of the Soft and Soothed Cleanser, I'd tried it before so it seemed to me that it was the ideal time to add the toner to my bathroom range. But no. The one thing I will give this toner is that it does remove all leftover traces of cleanser. For baffling reasons, Boots have opted to package it in an elegant looking container (fair...

Vicks Soothing VapoBath

Advantages: Smelt good
Disadvantages: Didn't deliver it was far to weak

...I can't believe it's been nearly a year since my last review, 2007 went so quick! I started work in April 2007 and just haven't had time to get into Ciao I am afraid, But all being well I am back. It was the week before Christmas and I started with the Man flu as my wife calls it, you know sneezing, coughing and running nose. My throat was really sore and had the temperature to match. I went to my local pharmacy to get something that would help and I was told this product was very good. I picked up a bottle of Vicks Soothing VapoBath on the label it says "it uses the power of nature to relax and comfort you in the cold winter months". The ingredients for the Vapobath sounded great just what I wanted. It has Eucalyptus, Menthol and Lavender essential oils, just like the Vicks Vaporub you can buy but in a bubble bath form...

Sooth away the sun

Advantages: easy to apply, pleasant smell and provides instant relief
Disadvantages: none

...At the same time as purchasing a sun lotion for my daughter when she was of a tender age I hunted in a bargain bin in Mothercare and came up trumps when I found their own brand of soothing aftersun lotion reduced from £4.49 to £2.99 and for a 200ml bottle it was a definite bargain. Not saying that our summers haven't been up to standard but my daughter is now 3 and I still have the very same bargain bottle and it's not through underuse either. Even though when she was a baby and I took all the natural precautions of keeping her out of direct sunlight avoiding direct contact between the sun and her skin I still used to smother her in sun protection (just in case, as mothers do) and give her the treat and her skin a welcome relief at the end of a tiresome sunny day with a nice rub of this lotion after her bath. This product is...

Soft & Soothed & Clean

Advantages: Leaves skin soft and cleansed!
Disadvantages: Bit pricey unless on special offer

...I popped into Boots a couple of weeks ago to treat myself to a new lipstick and mascara and was immediately pounced upon by one of the assistants, "did you know if you spend £15 or more on Boots No7 products you get a free beauty box gift containing 7 No7 products? Hmmm I'm a sucker for a free gift so I browsed through the lip colours and mascaras, deciding on a gloss at £6 and a mascara at £9.50, expensive for me but I was thinking of the freebies! Anyway I am glad I spent that £15 as I've now got 7 super new products that I hadn't tried before! One of these products was a 30ml bottle of No7 Soft & Soothed gentle cleanser! After using this bottle for a week (only a little needed each time, I was hooked and went into Boots and bought the full size 200ml bottle for only £6.50 (currently on a 3 for 2 offer too so good value...

MIGRAINE Kool 'n' Soothe!

Advantages: Ready to use. Ease of application. Immediate relief. No medicine and no side-effects
Disadvantages: Can slide off or become unstuck. Unsightly

...I've chosen a very basic title as Ciao have decided to list this product under Kool'n'Soothe, which is already listed elsewhere. The product that I'm reviewing is actually called Migraine Kool'n'Soothe; though I believe that there is little difference, which I shall explain. A Little Background: I have suffered with migraine since I was a little girl of about 5 years old (now recognised as childhood migraine). In my youth I would be packed off to a darkened room with a sweet cup of tea, for a good nap - this usually worked. There were occasions when the only remedy would be to vomit, causing the migraine to suddenly disappear. At age 11, I was admitted to hospital pending diagnosis of either meningitis (inflammation of the brain) or a brain tumour. I am glad, in one way, to report that I was diagnosed...
