Clean & Clear Advantage Acne/Spot Control Kit review
I bought the Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Control Kit (<-- link to US shop), also known as Clean & Clear Spot Control Kit, in Boots(<-- link to UK/Ireland shop) a few months ago. This kit claims to give you clearer skin from day 1, which I thought would be pretty incredible. It was only €15 so I thought that it might be worth a try. I was wrong.
The first few days were fine, and my skin got smoother and better so I got excited. I thought that this was going to be my skincare routine forever! I have sensitive, dry skin if anyone's wondering. Then it took a nosedive. My skin was still clear but my skin became dry and flaky. It was dry and cracked, no matter how much of the moisturiser I put on! Unfortunately, I wasn't at home for about a week when this was happening so I couldn't change anything.
At first I thought that it was the makeup I was wearing at the time was drying out my skin so I continued to use the kit. Big mistake. In the next few days I cut down the use to once a day and then every other day in hopes that it might still work but my skin was still dry and flaky, it was disgusting! I stopped using the kit and I'm not going to go back to it!
The face wash dried out my skin and the moisturiser was not moisturising! The spot treatment was ok, not my favourite but I will keep it as a spare just in case. As for the rest of the kit, goodbye!
Teen Spirit Pink Crush deodorant & antiperspirant review!
Ok, I know that it may be a little weird reviewing a deodorant but hey, a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do, right?! So I thought to myself maybe someone out there wants a review of a deodorant! and hopefully, I was right!
So that is what it looks like. I think that the only other scent it comes in is Sweet Strawberry, but I might be wrong, the rest were discontinued :( This is my review of the Teen Spirit Stick in Pink Crush I'll split this into pros and cons :)
Pros:
Overall, I will definitely repurchase this! I love it. It made a significant difference in my sweating and I will continue to use this to the very end of the stick, and the I'm going to buy it again! I hope you will forgive my slightly gross post, but I just loved this so much that I had to rave about it! :) You can buy this in so many places online and in a lot of drugstores so I'd say you can find it!
So that is what it looks like. I think that the only other scent it comes in is Sweet Strawberry, but I might be wrong, the rest were discontinued :( This is my review of the Teen Spirit Stick in Pink Crush I'll split this into pros and cons :)
Pros:
- The scent: It definitely smells cute and girlie, as the sticker on the cap implies. I often find myself smelling it ( in the tube ;) ) because it smells so good. The smell lingers in your underarms for quite a long time(though I couldn't tell you how long because I don't go sniffing my armpits every hour).
- The design: The design is pink and cute and it's easy to find in your purse or your bag. I personally like the design on the label, there are hearts and kisses, it's just very cute. The cap is pink and sparkly.
- The protection: This deodorant definitely made a difference in my sweat! It made a significant difference and it almost stops me sweating altogether!
- The texture: The texture is kind of waxy, but when you but it on the deodorant kind of melts into your skin, and it's quite smooth on your skin.
- No residue: As I said earlier, the deodorant melts into your skin, therefore leaving little to no residue
- The cost: This is ridiculously cheap for such high quality! It's never more than $5 and it's not even that! (I think) Prices range from $1-5, but I'm not completely sure.
- The twist: The twist at the bottom that pushes the deodorant up broke for me. It no longer twists down so I have to push it down. But, for me that is no biggie.
Overall, I will definitely repurchase this! I love it. It made a significant difference in my sweating and I will continue to use this to the very end of the stick, and the I'm going to buy it again!
