Review:[THE BODY SHOP] Tea Tree Blemish Gel

Heeeeeeeey! 
How's your day so far? I'll be reviewing TBS Tea Tree Blemish Gel.I also bought the Tea Tree Clearing Facial Cleanser and I wrote a review too HERE! There also a lot of different products in the "Tea Tree" line.Which are also listed in the link mentioned before.


 Product Discription/Claims:(from the thebodyshop-usa.com)

A handbag essential. Help is at hand with this SOS wand.
  • Targeted care
  • Soothing
  • Instantly cools without over-drying skin
  • Clinically proven to give clearer-looking skin
My Thoughts:
Usually before I buy a product I go online and read the reviews,but for this product I didn't! I learned that you should always do your homework before buying a product! I really hated this product!!
1-It didn't do anything not even reduce the size of my pimple
2-It was 26SR($9) for 2ml(.80 fl oz)
3-Not very hygienic 

  This is how the applicator looks like 

Pros:
NONE

Cons:
~Expensive for very little product
~Not hygienic
~Didn't see any changes in my skin

Collective Haul PART1


Heeya!
I know what your probably thinking "OMG she final posted the collective haul" I'm terribly sorry I have been busy (Kind of).It's because since school ended I have been pulling all nighters watching Nail shop Paris (K-drama) and Gossip Girl(I'm on Season 5 Ep 15.. 1 more season to go).So my sleeping got messed up,but I'll fix it I Promise!
Today I'm FINALLY doing my collective haul.I'll be showing you the thing I accumulated over the past month or so.I wont be doing any hauls for a while,because I'm doing the Project 15 Pan 
BTW I'll be splitting this haul into 2 parts one is going to be all the beauty related stuff and part 2 is going to be my art&crafts haul from Office Depot. Enjoy♥

Everything that I bought,and 1 thing that isn't in the pic 
 Epo

♥ Compressed Sheet Masks 7SR($2)
♥ Polish Remover 7SR($2)

I discovered this Japanese store called Epo awhile ago.It's like Daiso the prices start from 7SR,but Daiso has a bigger variety of merchandise.Anyways so I discovered something called "compressed sheet mask" and I have been on the hunt for some. So I thought I should check out Asian stores around me,and they had it!


Sephora

♥ Outrageous Volume Mascara(limited Edition Packaging)

 The packing is so eye catching! I was going to buy the same mascara,but the boring black version.Then when I was on my way to check out I saw the Limited Edition gold packing so of course I got the prettier one!


and this is how the brush looks like!

♥Labello Vanilla and Macadamia Lip Butter 12SR($4)
♥Nivea toner for oily/combination skin 26SR($7)
♥Max Factor nail polish in Lilac 30SR($8)

♥Strawberry Puree body lotion originally 14SR($4) after discount FREE
♥Born Lippy Stick Strawberry 32SR($8.50)

 They were having a buy one get one FREE promo on a basket filled with mini sized lotions and cleansers.I bought the Tea tree cleanser and got the lotion free.

Review: [THE BODY SHOP] Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash

Hello Lovelies~!
Today I'll be reviewing THE BODY SHOP'S tea tree skin clearing facial wash.I bought the cleanser & the blemish gel because:
  1. It was on sale buy 1 get 1 FREE (for the cleanser that's 60ml ONLY)
  2. I had lots of breakouts and Tea Tree helps cure them
There is a whole range of products called the Tea Tree line not just the cleanser&blemish gel.The line also includes:
  1. Tea tree skin clearing facial wash(60ml&250ml)
  2. Tea tree blackhead exfoliating wash
  3. Tea tree blemish fade night lotion
  4. Tea tree blemish gel
  5. Tea tree body wash
  6. Tea tree cleansing wipes
  7. Tea tree concealer
  8. Tea tree cool&creamy wash
  9. Tea tree face mask
  10. Tea tree face mask-single use
  11. Tea tree oil
  12. Tea tree oil facial blotting paper
  13. Tea tree pore minimizer
  14. Tea tree skin clearing foaming cleanser
  15. Tea tree clearing lotion
  16. Tea tree skin clearing toner
You can buy them online HERE

This cleanser come in 2 sizes a 60ml(2 fl oz)which is for $4 and a 250ml(8.4 fl oz)for $11.50 bottles.I would recommend getting the travel size before actually purchasing the full bottle.



Product Description:(from thebodyshop.com)

This daily-use facial wash for blemished skin gives clearer-looking skin when used as part of a regular regime.
  • Removes excess oil without over-drying skin
  • Helps remove impurities
  • Gentle enough for daily use

My Thoughts:
I have been using this product for 2 weeks now,and I LOVE IT! I can definitely see a difference in my skin.It has calmed & cleared my skin and got rid of most of my breakouts.I use this cleanser in the morning and evening.The cleanser has a liquid-y run-y consistency and has fragrance a herbal scent.Also i found it to be drying even though I have a combination skin more towards the oily side.

Pros:

  • Cleared my skin from breakouts
  • A little goes a long way (I have been using the travel size for 2 weeks twice a day,and I only used half of the bottle)
Cons:
  • Makes my skin very DRY(wouldn't recommend this for dry skin)
  • Has a some what strong smell(wouldn't recommend this for sensitive skin)

Would I repurchase this product again?
Yes,but I would need to buy a really moisturizing cream with it!




Have you tried this product ? did it make your skin dry? 

Have a nice day
~XOXO,Refan
