if any of you are regular readers of my blog, you might have seen that one of my 2013 New Years resolutions was to start trying Soap & Glory products as i see so many other beauty bloggers rave over it and just wanted to jump on the bandwagon. i thought i'd actually go for products that i'll use and will benefit me rather than just a nice smelling shower gel, so i bought the No Clogs Allowed Deep Pore Mask. i quite often get breakouts and i don't know if anyone will know what i mean when i say this, but my skin quite often looks uneven in appearance where there's tiny little blackheads and whatnot that i can never seem to get rid of, so i bought this with the promise of 'so long blackheads'.
with this product, you more or less initially apply it like a regular facemask with the pads of your fingers. once you've done this, you wet your hands and start scrubbing - you can feel the little exfoliating beads doing their work and the product actually turns blue the more you scrub at it, i should have taken a picture, i know! i applied this after a shower so left it on whilst i put my PJ's etc on and went back to rinse it off after. this doesn't stay like a cream on the face, it does dry if you go for the 3-5 minute option.
what i have come to love about Soap & Glory is that they provide you with something to get the product off your face - there is nothing i detest more than having to fill the sink up with water and try and wash and scrub it all off with your hands and just making a huge mess - and this tiny little sponge is amazing. literally just wet it and wipe across the face and all the mask is gone.
and oh my, did it leave my skin feeling soft! i have only used it once so can't comment on a long-term effect, but i'm going to start pampering myself on a Sunday and use this and a few other bits and pieces and if it's left my skin this soft after one use, the i can't want to see what it does once i've used it a few times!
if you wanted to try this out, you can purchase from the Soap & Glory or Boots websites for £11. i actually purchased from Boots when they had an offer on for up to £5 off S&G, so keep an eye out for more offers like this as it cost me just £9.
