Soap & Glory Fab Pore Facial Peel

I had been wanting to try this face mask from Soap & Glory for ages, and then when I saw that it was £2 off in Boots(making it £6) I decided to pick it up.

As part of my skincare routine I apply this three times a week, so I have probably used this about 10 times so far and I have used about a third of it. You only need a grape size amount because a little goes a long way.

What Soap & Glory Say:

  'Intensive action pore-refining facial peel. Give us your pores: Rub a grape sized dollop of 'THE FAB PORE' into your face and massage in circles until the green beads have all dissolved. (Those with a high tendancy for clogging should focus on their t-zone, chin, or areas with large, open, or problem pores.) Leave on for five minutes for a quick refresher, or fifteen for a real deep-cleaning do-it-yourself kind of 'facial'. Rinse well, and follow with your favourite Soap & Glory moisturiser. (How's that for self-promotion?)Repeat 2-3 times a week'

This is fantastic, especially for those of us with oily & combination skin. This really deep cleans and I have definitely had less breakouts since using this, and the breakouts I already had were definitely calmed by this. This takes out all the excess oil in your skin without overly drying the skin out, but I would definitely recommend applying a good moisturiser after this to make sure your skin doesn't over compensate for the oil loss.

I usually leave this on for the full 15 minutes for a deep clean and then take it off with a muslin cloth.

Although the £8 does seem a bit steep at first(which is what put me off) it is actually a bargain. If you think about other face masks, lets take LUSH's fresh face masks for example, they are about £5 and only last 4/5 times, whereas this you will get 30-40 applications for £8 and it is absolutely fantastic.

I would 100% recommend picking this up, it lasts ages, clears up your skin, and is nice for a pamper session!

My Skincare Routine

Hey Everyone!

I really wanted to do a skincare routine post but up until now I have never really found a skincare routine that  totally works for me. Usually I find a product I absolutely love but then it ends up making my skin break out or go oily after a while.

I have oily/combination skin that is very prone to breakouts which really sucks! However I think I have finally found the perfect skincare routine for me and I have tested this for about a month now and I have seen a huge improvement in the condition of my skin, and it has really helped to clear up my skin and I am getting way less/no breakouts now. 

So here are the products I use:

Simple Kind to Skin Night Cream

Simple Kind to Skin Day Cream

LUSH Eau Roma Water

LUSH Buche De Noel Cleanser

Soap & Glory Fab Pore Facial Peel

I also use Bioderma which is in the first photo decanted into the perfume bottle.

Morning:

• I wash my face with the Buche De Noel cleanser, this is a kind of clay cleanser, you take a pinch of the cleanser, mix it with warm water in your hands and make a paste out of it. Massage it into your face and then wash off with warm water.
• Then I spray my Lush Eau De Roma toning water evenly over my face and wait for it to sink into my skin and dry, you could put this on a cotton pad but personally I don't do this.
• Then I apply my Simple Day Cream.

Night:

• I take off my makeup with a large oval cotton pad and Bioderma.
• Then I wash my face again with the Buche De Noel cleanser.
• I then spray my Lush toning water over my face again.
• Then I apply my Simple Night Cream.

On a Monday, Wednesday & Friday night instead of washing my face with the LUSH cleanser I apply Soap & Glory's Fab Facial Pore Peel. You could do both steps but I find this overly dries my skin.

If you would like any individual reviews of these products please leave me a comment!
