Product Review: Avon Naturals Oil Control Witch Hazel Cleanser


This is just a review I'm making about one of the cleansers I'm using at the moment so here goes.

I got this product about a week ago and tried to use it since I have known for a fact that witch hazel really does reduce oiliness.

According to the bottle:

This rich foaming cleanser is especially formulated for oily skin. The Natural oil Control witch hazel cleanser gently cleanses dirt and impurities without leaving any residue. Your skin will feel fresh and matte, without oily-shine after wash.

With witch hazel extract, known for its astringent properties, and meadowsweet extract, known for its healing properties.

Its a cheap buy for 100ml for 99 pesos.

Now here is the likes and don't likes part:

What I like about the product:
- Does leave your skin matte after wash.
- Cheap buy for 99 pesos each

What I don't like about the product:
- After washing my face, I felt a tightening sensation which is actually not good.
- Its not foamy. I have tried to create lather and it also doesn't lather that much.
- After 3 days of usage I broke out...not one at a time but 3 at a time.
- Not available locally, You have to contact an Avon lady to buy this product.

My final verdict:

I was really disappointed with this product from Avon. They do make one of the best make up but then in terms of their skin care line I wasn't able to see any luck. I will not repurchase another tube of this cleanser because it did not lived up to what I expected. I hope Avon will re-think about this product if this is really for oily skin. :(

Sadly this gets 1 out of 5 stars.

This is for my entry today. Any comments? Suggestions? comment below ^^

See the devastation the cleanser made to my skin... :(



Much Love!

Ouch, girl. Think I'd prefer Pond's facial scrubs over this one. And I agree, that Avon needs to rethink of their skin care line to help sell products with ease. Sadly only lipsticks from Avon give me the satisfaction I'm looking for.

My addictions: My cute yet ferocious dog named John

Shocking isn't it? haha!  Let me introduce to you my dog named John. Believe it or not he had a brother named Lloyd... get it John and Lloyd. Blame my mom for their names LOL But besides from that he is one peculiar kind of dog. He has a mannerism to act adorable one minute but turn annoying after another.  He has been with us for like 5 years or longer. He is a mix of Labrador and Pitbull.  I took that photo a couple of days ago when I was in a trigger happy mode. I took pictures of my niece and my nephew, our newly renovated house and of course my pets. I was actually asking him to look at me and when he did he suddenly yawn. And that is how I had that shot.  He is actually a really nice dog, he is a bit territorial but most dogs are like that. He actually likes my Labrador Retriever named Georgia. I'll let you meet Georgia next time. ^_^ Much Love!  Alice

Product Review: iColor Hair Dye Shampoo

Image
Hello lovelies!  Since the start of the year I told myself I will change my looks more and test things since I am not getting any younger so experimenting would definitely be on top of my list.  With that I've actually started with my hair. I have already gone blonde although that was a little hard to maintain since I remember being told to go back after a number of weeks to have my roots done but never seem to do it because  1. The salon I got it done was quite far from my place.  2. Its still expensive 3. It would damage my hair tremendously I still have qualms about getting my hair colored again professionally so I asked my mom if its much better if I color it myself - she said yes but gave me the low down on the things I have to do...remembering all those information was a toughie but I was able to get a simpler solution with it - this hair dye shampoo~  My mom discovered this actually and asked me to try it on my hair since she knows I need to cove
