Soap & Glory - Dr. Spot Review

Hello Everyone :)

As you will all know, I absolutely love Soap & Glory, so when I heard they had a spot treatment I thought I'd give it a go.

Claims: Dr Spot Invisible Spot Fighting Gel says it is "A light, clear spot fighting gel with clog-clearing salicylic and lactic acids." and "Improves spots without drying out the skin."

Packaging: Like all the other Soap & Glory products it has quirky, fun and brightly coloured packaging. The shiny mirror like box is sleek yet youthful. However, when I opened the box I found that the liquid had leaked out and had dried in all yellowish around the silver tube. It was quite a disappointing initial set back but I still had high hopes for its spot fighting abilities.

Usage: I put a small droplet of the gel onto my fingertip, dabbed it onto the spot and left it. As it claims, the gel is invisible which was good as you could wear it out without being noticed.

Effectiveness: I am sad to say that I was pretty disappointed in this treatment. After leaving for a few hours however I noticed no difference at all to my skin.

As you can see, my skin looks the exact same after use.

The only positive I can give is that it did not dry out my skin, which is an achievement as my skin tends to dry out easily. Though its spot fighting abilities for me were non-existent.

Rating: 2/10. Sadly I didn't get on well with this product and would definitely not buy it again. I was especially disappointed as I always expect so much from Soap & Glory products.

Dr Spot is available in Boots or online. Have you ever tried it? Did it work for you?

Soap & Glory Haul

Hi everyone!

So if you follow me on twitter, you'll know that yesterday I went a big shopping trip which was super exciting as I feel like I've been stuck in my bedroom for months studying. I went out planning to get a few bits and bobs from my wishlist and I came back with that and much more! I will be telling you all about my purchases/ day in upcoming posts as I feel like I can go into more detail if I divide it up.

So first up, my most exciting purchases- Soap & Glory! As you will know from previous posts (here and here), I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE Soap & Glory! When I went into Boots, I found that they are doing a fab offer- spend £10 on Soap & Glory and get a free 500ml bottle of Foam Call Body Wash worth £6.50! I was amazed and since I was already buying Dr Spot and No Clogs Allowed which came to £19 (or thereabouts) I also picked up a mini The Righteous Butter. So for spending £21.50 on Soap & Glory products I got 2 full-size free bottles of Foam Call. Not bad eh?

Tonight I will be trying out the body wash, body butter and face mask and I am beyond excited! Already, I am really impressed with the packaging and smell (I bought the body butter purely because it has the gorgeous Original Pink smell!) I'll post reviews for each (definitely Dr. Spot and No Clogs Allowed) in the course of the next few weeks to let you know how I get on with them!

That's all from me this evening, hope everyone enjoys the rest of this lovely summery evening. As for me I think I better get down to more studying- boo!
