La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo

Hey Guys!

So I've been M.I.A for a while again! Some time in January i decided to purchase this product La Roche-Posay, Effaclar DUO (Corrective and unclogging anti-imperfection care). If you have never heard of it before it generated a lot of attention in the media and is one of Allure's best of beauty award winners (Best of Beauty 2012; Breakthrough 2011).




What does it do?
As mentioned on the website:
The pores are purified. Even the most severe imperfections disappear. The skin is smoother and cleaner. Lasting balance-replenishment to restore all the qualities of healthy skin.

And let me tell you, the last point is true. I have been using this cream instead of a moisturizer and my skin never gets dry or too oily, in fact it really balanced my it out and it helped get rid of most of the bumps under my skin and some of my pesky break - outs. It also disappears instantly, leaving your skin feeling like u put nothing on it.

The product costs: 90 LE

Where to find it: Seif or Ezaby pharmacies tend to have this line of skincare.

Conclusion: I am definitely going to try more products from this line that is Recommended by over 25,000 dermatologists.

Rexsol Vitamin C Gel Wash - Review

I never used to have serious problems with my skin. About a year ago i started getting little bumps on my forehead, my cheeks and around my chin area.

After visiting my dentist for a routine check-up he recommended that i use Jojoba oil. I took his advise and was very pleased for a while but later learned to not take skin advise from a dentist! 

Jojoba oil in fact has many benefits and i would recommend it as a product to use from time to time. I however started using it everyday on my face for a couple of months, what i didn't realize at the time was that i was giving my skin oil in which it didn't have to produce anymore which resulted in my skin becoming very dry, irritable and my bumps returned with a vengeance!

I stopped using jojoba oil and visited the nearest pharmacy to buy a proper facial cleanser to remedy my problematic skin, WILLING TO PAY ANY PRICE in my desperation! A helpful attendant introduced me to Rexsol Vitamin C Gel Wash. First impression, the packaging looked lackluster, however the kind man insisted and told me that he himself uses it and was a big fan! 

Conclusion


I'm glad i listened to that man. The first time i used it my skin felt like silk. I dont know what it is but i kept touching my skin, it was that good!. The smell is clean, the effect is great! my spots cleared up almost 90% in the first 2 weeks. I use it twice a day, when i wake up and before i go to sleep. It removes all kinds of make-up in just one wash, and my whole family uses it now. Price: 70LE available at Ezaby and Ali's Image Pharmacies.

Good luck!
