Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips


Hey Amigos! This post is a fresh as my face is feeling right now because of the wonderful, heaven sent
Biore Deep Cleansing Pore Strips.


I've been battling in the war against my pores from my teens and although I have found a lot of great remedies they sadly only gave the desired effect for a short time. I have combination/ oily skin and more frequently the past few weeks I have been reaching for blotting paper in order to manage the situation which has been helping but not targeting the real issue.

I few weeks back I wrote about Simple Deep Cleansing Face Mask and that it seemed to do the trick but I felt I would have to use it everyday to achieve the outcome I wanted. I've since made the decision that I don't think it works for me and that was when I decided to try these cleansing strips.


I wanted to really put the Simple face mask to the final test before I gave it the heave ho, so I applied the mask onto my face and left it  to settle for around ten minutes before massage/washing it off my face.
The deep cleansing strips are best applied on a damp face so no better time than after you have washed your mask off. Each pore strip is in it's own foil packet with an easy open tab at the top so no silly fiddling about.
I peeled of the clear plastic from the cleansing strip and placed the strip sticky side down on my nose making sure it covered below the tip of my nose as that is where I have the most problems.
Applying the strip as smooth as you can is important as you don't want to have uneven of areas which did/didn't take.
After 15 minutes it felt stiff so I slowly lifted the strip from left to right and I instantly feel the already exposed skin was clean and refreshed. Looking at the how much was deposited on to it shocked and amazed me but most of all I'm happy I've found something that really targets the issue (fingers crossed!).

I'm hoping that my skincare routine will feel more worth the time as I feel this was a main reason some of the products I use were not showing their true potential.

Thanks for reading

Simple Deep Cleansing Face Mask

Hello Everyone, I'm on the skin care beat today so if you're a fellow Oily skin type individual you'll enjoy this post.

Spying like I habitually do around Superdrug I discovered Simple Deep Cleansing Face Mask.
The product declares to draw out deep down dirt, eliminate dead cells while being suitable for sensitive skin.
Simple embraces the benefits of vitamins and natural ingredients with no harsh chemicals or artificial perfumes and colours.
The colour of the mask is an off white colour while the texture is thin like a light lotion for the face while the scent is subtle with a slight whiff of what I think is Natural Clay.

My first impressions of the mask was that it was too thin to solve my oily skin issue. I cleansed my face before hand and smoothly applied the mask to face. When my whole face was covered I realised that the mask seemed to evaporate from my face. Simple recommend to leave it on for Three minutes but I had mine on for Six. I washed the mask off with warm water then cold water for the last rinse following up with my night routine.

I was happy with the results I achieved. After using the mask my skin felt smooth and more importantly oil free but I feel like I continued with this product I would have to use it everyday to maintain the results. Simple recommend to use the mask twice a week at most.

It's a shame that it didn't work out as well as I wanted as I love Simple's wipes and other products and the price was reasonable.

Please let me know if it works for you or any other masks you think are worth trying.

With Love

Dawn
