Skincare Haul and Review

I have not always been one to splash out on skincare products, and spend hours searching for organic or natural cleansers and face washes. In fact I have never really been one to have a set skincare routine, as I suppose I have always been able to make do with a face wipe.

However looking back I think it was bad of me not to spend a few minutes a day caring for my skin. I am not saying that you have to spend hours applying face masks and handfuls of expensive moisturisers, just that it is important to keep your skin moisturised and pores clean.

Believe it or not, I am happy with my skin and am thankful that I am lucky enough not to be faced with the effects that growing up can have on it. Again I just wanted to ensure that I am giving my skin the goodness it needs everyday, and to me that meant spending a couple of minutes of my time caring for it morning and evening.

I had been eyeing the new Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit range for a couple of weeks now, and was eager to try it out. I don't know whether it was just because it was pink and smelt great, or if it was the fact that I was keen to begin a new friendship with my skin (maybe a bit of both). 

When I ventured into Boots with my friend and saw that the whole of the Neutrogena range was on offer (2 for £5) I almost collapsed with excitement. Yes you've guessed it, I purchased some of the products (you can't let an opportunity like that slip). 

L-R
Daily Scrub - claims to help eliminate spots and blemishes with a fresh clean feel. Facial Wash - aims to help eliminate spots and blackheads with a fresh clean feel. 

 After sampling the products with my friend I was so pleased with the way that they made my skin feel, so soft and glowing, that I was certain I would eventually purchase the third product of the range. 

So when in Superdrug the next day my friend and I decided to share the offer and purchase another product. 

Cream Wash - aims to gently cleanse skin, to help prevent spots and blackheads without overdrying the skin.

I love this wash too, and along with the others it makes my skin feel extremely soft, smooth and hydrated. As it  claims, it does not overdry my skin. At first I was worried that this statement meant that it would contain extra oils that would cause my skin to become greasy, however it does not and brings it to the perfect balance. 

Order of use, L-R.
This is the complete Pink Grapefruit range.
Dermatologist tested.

Directions For Use: In morning and evening apply small amount onto moist hands and massage onto wet face. Rinse thoroughly. I apply the products in this order: daily scrub, facial wash and finally the cream wash. 

I find that all products from this range claim to do the same basic thing, therefore I think it is completely up to your personal preference and aim, as to which products you end up purchasing. For example if you were looking for a product that will eliminate spots and blackheads, as well as cleanse the skin, and you have trouble with dryness, than I would recommend the cream wash as it claims to do this. So on and so forth. 

I am thrilled with the performance of these products, and would really recommend them to those of you who are happy with your skin and are just looking for a product, or range of products, that will keep it in good condition and just give it the moisture, hydration and clean feel it needs. In addition to this they smell great and are enjoyable to us. I think that for a bargainous £7.50 for the bunch you cant go wrong.
