Highstreet vs High price Cleansing Water

I love cleansing waters. I first discovered the solution after my skin became very sensitive to make-up wipes and my skin would end up breaking out, feeling dry, they were doing more harm than good so i looked for other alternatives.

Loreal Paris Skin Perfection Micellar Water was the first cleansing water i ever tried. Priced at £4.99 but most of the time on offer for £3.33, i matched it up with the moisturiser and the serum from there Skin Perfection range. It claims to dissolve make-up without rubbing, unclogs pores, tones and smoothes your skin. So, is this true? The formula does dissolve make-up easy enough on a cotton pad with a few wipes around the face. It says you can hold the solution over your eyelashes with no need to rub, i however found this technical did not work for removing my eye make-up and i need to rub was used, on both waterproof and none water proof mascara. It is great for sensitive skin and did leave my skin feeling soft and generally clean after. My pores looked clean after and my skin wasn't tight. The solution as no odorous smell, just a plain white solution which does exactly what it says. 

Next up is a more expensive cleaning water. From the Avene range, the Cleaning water is priced at £16 for a 400ml bottle at boots. A steep price to pay for something just to remove your make-up, but is that all it does? The product is for oily to blemished prone-skin and you may of guest it, i love this one too! Unlike the Loreal Paris Micellar Water, i find with the Avene Cleansing water i can have a lazy day when it comes to my cleansing routine and instead of doing the full sha-bam, i can use this product and know my skin has had a good clean and won't suffer the next morning. It clears away every trace of make-up including water proof mascara, leaving my skin tight free and feeling fresh. It is senstive skin friendly and cleared out my pores, with obviously noticeable results. It tones and controls the oil in your skin well and also, helped my skin with dryness. It has so many positive effects to the skin that £16 for this product doesn't seem much of an issue anymore.

New to my routine is the Botanics 3 in 1 Cleansing Solution. Cheapest of the 3 for only £2.99, currently on sale for £1.49, i have only used the solution a couple of times with the recommendation from my friend. For all skin types, it left my skin looking clean and make-up free, removing my eye make-up and even my water proof-mascara. It cleared out my pores and for such a little price, it does the job. I did find however, it left my skin quite dry, a little sore and tight. As i said above, i have sensitive skin, so i don't think this solution suited my skin type, but for the price it's worth a try if your on a budget. 

Review : Dirty Works Hot Cloth Cleanser

I wasn't looking for a new face cleanser as i'm happy with the one i'm using. But after seeing this in Sainsburys in the sale range for £1.75 instead of £7!! I had get it. You all should know by now that i love my bargains.

First thing that i love about this product is the design. It's what caught my eye in the first place. I just think the yellow colours over the blue make everything pop out along with the different styled fonts making it all girly and cute. I'm a sucker for a good design but i love art. I did take a interactive media course but enough of that and onto the most important reason.. DOES IT WORK? The answer.. yes. If a product works is one of my main MUST'S at the minute otherwise...i'll move on.

The cleanser is a basic white colour and smells alot like shampoo. But don't worry, once applied to your face it smells lovely! Not too strong or overpowering. I washed the cleanser off with the free muslin cloth that you get inside the box, you get two! It was soft on my face and came off easily without any real effort or scrubbing. It is claimed to reveal ' fresh, RADIANT skin' , and to ' Lift away dirt and excess oil', which is exactly what it did! I have blackheads which are a constant struggle for me, but after once of using this my face looked clean, bright, no red marks and generally alot healthier and most of all CLEAR. I have sensitive skin and find with some cleanser's they break me out. This wasn't an issue, but it does claim to be suitable for all skin type's.

For the original price of £7. It's a bloody good buy and i'd pay more for a product like this.

Thanks for reading! I hope you liked my review. xo

Soap & Glory : Fab Pore Facial Peel

Soap & Glory. One of my favourite brands and 'The Fab Pore Facial Peel is one of the main reasons why. Originally priced at £10, it is now down to £6.67 and stating on the boots website ' Once its gone, its gone'. Which i'm presuming means that this product will no longer be available. Maybe i'm outdated, so although i LOVE this product, and i will explain to you why, i am more than keen to try out there other , 'The Fab Pore 2 in 1'. But i still urge you to try this out whilst it is at an reduced price. GRAB A BARGAIN.

This product can be used as a 5 minutes quick facial mask or left on for 15 minutes for a deep clean. I tend to leave it on for 15 minutes to get the full effects of the product. It targets pores, spot prone and problem skin. I have very sensitive skin, and products that include beads can make my skin worse than it already is and leave me with break outs. So when i opened the tub to find blue looking beads i was optimistic. The product was thick, smooth and soft! - including the beads! They didn't irritate or scratch my skin like other harsh facial masks can. It glides on your skin, not leaving your skin feeling tight or hard. There isn't a smell to the product either, which when its on your face i guess thats a good thing, just incase you don't like the smell and have to put up with it for 15 minutes.

It is very easy to wash off, leaving my skin feeling moisturised, soft, and looking generally healthier. I found after each wash my problem pores are dramatically reduced which is one of the main reasons i started using this mask. So if your like me and are prone to blackhead i would highly recommend this product. It has so many extras and great results. It really does do what it says on the tin.
