I have found a great combo for my skin that is really helping my little breakouts; these come and go as they please so it is very important to me that I look after my skin. When I get a breakout I often refine myself to my four walls as they get me really self-conscious. I was recently sent a few St. Ives products and two of these included the below products, which I am so thankful for having in my life now.
Naturally Clear
NATURALLY CLEAR GREEN TEA CLEANSER
Helps clear breakouts and soothes skin. A Blemish-fighting solution with 100% Natural Green Tea.
Product Description
This cleanser deep cleans to gently remove dirt and make-up and helps maintain skin's moisture balance.
I love the smell of green tea, it is actually one of the only two teas I will drink along with Chamomile. When I smell this product it reminds me of a sweetened cool green tea, I love it. It says to use the cleanser first followed by the scrub, but I don’t always follow this and often just use the wash everyday and then the scrub twice a week. I find this cleanser gets down deep enough into my pores without the need of the scrub. After using the St. Ives Green Tea Cleanser for a week I did notice my skin had a lot more shine to it, and even noticed it made my skin feel a little tighter.
Naturally Clear
NATURALLY CLEAR GREEN TEA SCRUB
Helps clear breakouts and soothes skin. A Blemish-fighting solution with 100% Natural Green Tea
Product Description
This dermatologist-tested scrub can actually help to clear and soothe your skin as well as help reduce redness. An active blemish-fighting ingredient fights the flare-ups, while 100% natural exfoliants encourage healthier, clearer skin.
This has exact same smell as the cleanser the only difference is the consistency. The St. Ives green tea scrub is the only scrub I have ever used with this smooth exfoliating consistency. The exfoliating beads throughout this scrub were so tiny and my favourite scrub by far. Another thing I love about St. Ives is the simple fact of how affordable the products actually are especially for the quality you receive. Like I said above thought I just use this product twice a week, as I am scared it will dry my skin out too much, just like with any scrub I use. But I am almost certain that you could use this everyday thought if you chose to. I will be sure to continue to use this product, as I have said I have not come across a smoother scrub before in my life. I could describe the texture as a very well ground down sand, which has almost been ground down to sand and then had some wash added to it.
