PRODUCT RAVE

Hey hey hey,

So I had a really bad cold for about two weeks. Thinking I was doing the right thing, I was using alot of vaseline around my mouth and nose to prevent my skin from getting dry and ....... it TOTALLY back fired on me !!! I started getting spots all over my face, even on my eyelid !!! Yucky-ness ... I know.

Sorry for the gross story but I do have a point I promise :)

So, I'm really not used to getting spots at all. I never got them even, as a teenager, so I didn't know how to combat them. I used my Creme de la Mer scrub which just made the whole situation worse and they started spreading across my cheeks. I was almost having a breakdown at this stage because I am going on a girly weekend away and I would hate for my skin to be acting up!

Anyway, long story short-ish. My mother saved the day by telling me to use Simple - Kind to Skin Moisturising Facial Wash. I have used it twice now, yesterday and today, and noticed a huge improvement. It seems to be drying out the irritations and stoping them spreading which is such a reflief. Yey for my mother !!

I don't think I will use this product once my skin has cleared up because I have naturally dry skin and I feel the wash is drying which is probably why it's helping with my irritations. My skin does feel super clean and refreshed after use though.

This product does contain SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate). Which I try to avoid putting anywhere near my skin or scalp but I was desperate and as I said I won't be using it long term.

So I just wanted to do a quick blog to share with you guys just in case any of you find yourself in the same situation. xx
