I've heard wondrous things on this product, so I figured I'd give it a go! This facial peel is meant to be used every few days or so, and for 5 or 15 minutes, depending on the outcome you'd like.
The super cute packaging; always catches my eye on S&G products. Great branding!
I absolutely adore Soap & Glory's packaging.. I can always spot the products from a mile away and the cheeky titles always catch my attention and give a giggle!
The product/bottle..
As you'll notice, the product does have little green beads to it. The goal when applying the peel is to use a grape sized dollop, and as you're massaging it on your skin, to be conscious of the green beads and make sure they're all blended in as this is what makes the product be the product!
And the interior! Notice the little green beads in the mask? Those are your friends :~)
I've read plenty reviews on this, and a lot of them essentially said how after one use they noticed their pores shrinking in size. To be honest, I think that's total bullocks. I don't believe you can expect immediate gratification from a product, to see a difference you need to try it a few times. One use isn't going to make a difference, or let you properly know if you like a product, these things need time.
That being said, I didn't immediately notice a difference, but my pores felt refreshed, so if anything I feel as if this did a deep cleaning on my skin. A lot of the time I just use this in my T-zone as I hate washing face masks off from my forehead.. with my hair it becomes a total mess.
After using this several times, I'd say my pores looked cleaner. Not smaller, but cleaner. I don't believe a drugstore product can shrink your pores. That to me is just a total myth. But that's not to say products like these are ineffective, because they definitely can be effective.
Hope that made sense.. long story short, great product, I had much cleaner pores after around 3-5 uses and I can tell this product will last a long time (plenty of applications) so who knows if I'll even need to buy it again!

it's definitely worth a shot :) x
DeleteI've used this a lot (I've gone through 3/4 of a tub) and I totally agree with you. It's not really a peel either which I was hoping for, more of a messy scrub. I agree with you too that my pores look no way smaller but it just feels like my whole face has been made cleaner temporarily. I had such high hopes for this product too!

Yeah I thought that was false advertising too.. it's not really even a mask which is kind of lame. I agree completely with you - I feel like it's good for a cleanse, but not worth the money if you're looking for pore action x
DeleteI've never tried Soap&Glory, but I've been dying to!! I just can't seem to ever find any in Ulta. xx

Wow, you must be dying! You have to get your hands on some, such a great brand! I know Sephora offers it in the US (presuming that's where you're from) xx
DeleteThank-you for being truly honest in this review - there is no product on the market that is going to change the way you look after one use! But it sounds like this one is effective if you keep at it, so I shall have to give it a try :)
ReplyDeletexox,
Cee
I hate false reviews, or even reviews that give false hope which is why I always try to be completely honest. But I agree - immediate gratification is near impossible! x
DeleteI love Soap and Glory products.
ReplyDeleteNice blog, i'm a new follower :)
