Review: New; Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit

Two weeks ago I won some products from Neutrogena's new line of Visibly Clear products, Pink Grapefruit from another blog.

I recieved the Pink Grapefruit Cream Wash (150ml), Facial Wash (with pump, 200ml) and Daily Scrub (150ml).


I've been using the Cream Wash and Daily Scrub for the last couple of weeks and so far I like it.  Normally I use Simple, because it has no scent or colour, and I usually use facial products like that.  This line of products has quite a strong scent of grapefruit, which is okay but I'm not that keen on it.  The Cream Wash has a minty smell too, which some people like but I don't really.

Overall I quite like these.  They work well, the packaging is nice too.  The thing I don't like is the scent.  I much prefer brands like Simple who don't use any perfumes.

Lots of people will like this product, I'll keep using mine for now, but I don't think I'll buy them afterwards.

Review: Soap & Glory: The Fab Pore Facial Peel

This is 'The Fab Pore' facial peel from Soap & Glory.  I've been using this product for a few months now and I really like it.  I'm not so sure what it means by 'facial peel', to me this is pretty much a mud face mask.

I use this about once or twice a week.  You just apply it like a face mask, leave for 5-15 minutes and rinse off well.  This is a thick formulation and it has little green beads in it.  According to the box it contains Fomes Officinalis extract to tighten pores, Salicylic Acid to loosen up dead skin cells, Kaolin which is clay and Vitamins E & C.

I really liked this product.  It didn't irratate my skin as a lot of masks have done, and my skin felt much better after using this mask.  The tub lasts ages as you only have to use a small amount because the formula is quite thick.  Again, I love the retro packaging too!  I think I will definitely be buying this again when I've run out :)
