no7 shine free - £10.50
this product is aimed at us ladies who suffer with combination/oily skin around our tzone area which creates problems for our make up throughout the day, leading to us returning home with a sticky chin and a red nose where our foundation has gradually glided away throughout the day.
when i use this product i tend to squeeze a pea size amount onto my index finger, and dab it around my nose where i tend to get the most oily throughout the day. the product is white and fluffy but very drying so you must work with it quickly to get the best effect. i tend to find if you use too much product, it tends to peel away and leave like a 'peeling' effect on the skin, which is never a good look - especially in winter when you cant even blame it on sun burn...
personally, i dont know whether i love or hate this product. occasionally i use it and feel like its made a tremendous difference and has definitely controlled my oil production, but then on other occasions i use it and think oh my god, its producing an oiler nose. its not a product i use religiously, therefore to suggest to someone that it is an essential would be wrong.
i think you should perhaps ask for a tester of this product and see how it works on your skin, as of course it will produce different results for different people. its not too expensive and it does last bloody ages so it wont be a waste of money if it does work for you, but i wouldnt say its something every girl needs, before it most definitely isnt.
(note: sorry the packaging is slightly scratched, this product has been thrown about in my bag for months and this has led to the damage haha)
lots of love, elle xo
