Review: Rodial Super Acids Exfoliating Pads (50 pads)
50 pads for £45, but currently £19 for 50 pads - LINK

I have been using these as apart of my nighttime skin care routine for about a year now and they have made a massive difference to the appearance of my skin, its texture and the appearance of pores. I love the convenience of these pads as they are pre soaked, easy to use and give me amazing results.

These are great for taking away excess oil, dirt and any make up left over after cleansing. They are deep cleansing, shrink the appearance of pores and refine the texture of the skin. You will see clarity in the skin straight after a few uses and your skin will look more refreshed.

They also have Biotilys in them, which helps to protect the skin from daily aggressions and it boasts hydration. The pads don't dry your skin out but makes it feel clean, refreshed and hydrated, this is because of the Biotilys probiotic technology. They made my pores look smaller, skin look refined, my skin tone looks more even and looks more hydrated and plump. As I use these in the evening I wake up and my skin feels soft, smooth and looks more radiant as well.

Rodial recommend that you use the pads twice a day, but because I'm a product junkie and love using different products I only use the in my night time routine. I use one pad after removing my make up in the evening and before applying any of my night time routine products. The pad is a good size and is very well soaked with the exfoliating serum. One pad is enough for the entire face and neck, I then use anything left on the pad and go over the backs of my hands. If you have a smaller face and want these to last longer then you can cut one pad in half and just use one half each application, this will give you 100 uses instead of 50.

I would defiantly recommend these to anyone who wants soft, smooth, radiant skin with smaller looking pores. Its great for someone who has acne as it gently exfoliates the skin rather than an aggressive exfoliator. Give them ago as they are less than have price at the moment, use the link above!

As mentioned before I love the Super Acids range from Rodial and have used every single product from it and they are all amazing! Please check out my previous post on the Rodial spf30 moisturiser.

Review: Natura Bisse Glyco Extreme Peel

£199 for 30ml

I have used many home Glycolic Peels after having them professionally with MD Formulations for a year. A lot of the at home kits are very low in terms of Glycolic Acid percentage and don't work well on my skin. 

You must be thinking...wow £199 but after using this once a week for the past 4 months I think this is the best Glycolic Acid home peel I have ever used (you can tell by the grubby packaging). I think this product has the highest percentage of Glycolic Acid that you can buy on the shelves, therefore it has a good level. 

I use this once a week on a Friday, so that my skin is ready for the weekend, when I wear the most make up and want my skin to look at its best. The peel leaves my skin glowing and extremely clean feeling. It takes away all the dead skin, fades the pigmentation on my face and leaves my skin really smooth.

For those of you who haven't ever used a product like this, this is not like a chemical peel which makes your skin actually peel. The ingredients in this product don't make your skin peel and is great for people with oily skin and acne prone skin as it goes in deep into the layers. It is even great for people who have dry skin to help with exfoliation and help illuminate the skin. 

Please comment below to let me know if you know of any glycolic peels I can try.

Review: Clark's Botanicals Smooth Marine Cream 



Clark's Botanicals Smooth Marine Cream

£92 for 50ml

When I first saw this in Space NK, I thought I can't spend £92 on a cream, but then I read the ingredients and went for it. It was the best decision I made because it has lasted me ages and it has worked!

I swear by Glycolic Acid for pigmentation and exfoliation for my skin, being of Indian origin I get pigmentation from spots and around the mouth area. I feel like this cream has really sorted that out. I found that Glycolic acid is the 3rd ingredient in the list on this cream and therefore it must have a good amount to do the trick. 
Sometimes these types of creams really dry you out because they are exfoliating the skin, however this is not drying at all, if anything it makes the skin feel very smooth and supple. 

I only use this in the evening, after throughly cleansing my face because I feel I need a bit more moisture during the day and as I wear make up I don't like wearing this under make up because of the Glycolic in it. Just using it every evening has made a massive difference to my skin, in terms of texture, fine lines and pigmentation. The cream is not harsh in any way, when you first start to use it, you feel a bit of tingling but you soon get used to this and there is no irritation.

There are also other products in this range, which I am currently using and will review as soon as I feel that I have used it for long enough.
