We don't always get to review glamorous things, sometimes we look at the useful, everyday stuff. Spots and acne are a constant topic in my house with all of our teenagers and 2 of them have been reviewing Quinoderm Antibacterial Facewash for the last 3 weeks.
Annoyingly the photo's I took when it arrived have vanished, so my apologies for the 'pre-enjoyed' picture.
Quinoderm Antibacterial Facewash is designed to be used in place of soap, morning and night. It is in an innocuous blue and white bottle and has a 'clean' smell like a fresh shower gel. It isn't fruity or girlie at all, and so it's pretty much suitable for anyone. It's a thick liquid gel and is very much just like hand soap, so it's very familiar and not off-putting.
In their words - It has an antibacterial action and contains 0.15% chlorhexidine digluconate and 1.5% mytrimonium bromide. Its dual action
cosmetic formula helps remove any excess facial oil, grease or dirt and
leaves the skin clean, healthy and feeling refreshed. It is also
antibacterial, targeting P. acnes (the bacteria responsible for the majority of acne cases) and other bacteria which can lead to spots.
As often happens when you start using a new product, at first we had a few breakouts and one of our teenagers wasn't happy, but after 3 weeks continued use they both definitely have clearer skin and less spots. They're both very pleased with the results and I think that Quinoderm is something I'll definitely be buying soon to replace this bottle when it's finished. Happy teenagers means a much happier house!
Quinoderm Antibacterial Facewash is available at your local chemist - including Lloyds Pharmacy and Boots and has an RRP of £4.49 for 150ml bottle.
It's so hard being a teenager with all the necesary evils that come with it :( Great when you can find something that works!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely! I remember it well - I think I spent hundreds of £££s on skin care :D
DeleteTeenage skincare can be really tricky, glad they have persevered and are getting good results now.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard when it looks bad to start with, but it's soon past :)
Deletelook like a fab product!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly seems to be doing the trick now :)
DeleteI recently bought this face wash and have yet to try it but I can 100% recommend Quinoderm's 5% acne cream to anybody who might have acne. It has been a wonder product for me and my adult acne.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much for your comment, that's really helpful! I hope that you find the wash works as well for you as the cream :)
