Today we have a guest post courtesy of the lovely Lorna who kindly agreed to blind-test a mystery skincare product – the identity of which will be officially revealed on 1st March 2012.
Designed to be gentle enough to use twice a day, its ingredients claim to keep your skin balanced and blemish-free without the risk of over drying. It contains vitamin and fruit extracts to help blast blotches, control oil and prevent UV damage so your skin looks healthier, clearer and more luminous. Honestly, we have no idea who is behind it! Read on to see what Lorna had to say…
I have been chosen to trial the ‘big skincare mystery product’. What is special about this product is that it offers multipurpose skincare solutions. It looks like a bottle of cream but is actually a cleansing face wash PLUS, if left for a few minutes, becomes an instant face mask! The brand behind this concept has been kept under wraps but the word is the fuss surrounding it might be worth the hype, and I couldn’t wait to find out more.
The product is green in colour and gently fragrant. It is kind on your skin, particularly noticeable to me, who suffers from sensitive skin and is limited on the products I can use on my face. I initially used the mystery product as a face wash and it surprisingly lathered and foamed up quickly and felt smooth on my skin whilst using. I had no burning or stinging skin complaints and my face felt cleansed, fresh and very clean afterwards.
One noticeable observation was that there was a lack of a ‘cooling’, ‘refreshing’ or ‘burst of feeling’ sensation which I personally like when washing my face first thing in the morning when feeling groggery and still half asleep.
Using the mystery product as a face mask was easy to apply, set within minutes and apart from looking like Princess Fiona from Shrek due to the bright green colour, left my skin feeling soft and looking healthy. It was easy to wash off and did not require any particular effort to use.
I would definitely buy this mystery product in the shops because it offers dual skincare solutions for ladies with busy lives where pampering sessions can sometimes be pushed to the back of the queue. Having the mystery product in my bathroom, I was able to have a fancy face mask several times throughout the week and not just when I have scheduled one in my diary.
It is a gentle and kind, cleansing product and I believe would be suitable to those with all types of skin. I am delighted to have found another product that works well on my own sensitive skin.
Rating? I give it 9 out of 10!
