Seaweed Treatments

I have super oily skin - something that I've been trying to treat for a looong time.  And Facial Blotter is with me 24/7 (so all that facial blotters in the goodies bag will be put to good use!)

I am in the middle of using Shu Uemura's PuRenovate range when Nic showed me the Seaweed range from Body Shop that does the same job, BUT at much cheaper price.  So I purchased a traveler's set, because I want to see if it works on my skin... and if it does, I will buy the whole range in full size.

I've been using it for two days, so far I see my skin has become less oily, but still oily.  I am going to give it two weeks or at least until the product finish before I decide if I want to stick with it.


RM79.00 set includes
Seaweed Purifying Facial Cleanser, Clarifying Toner,
Mattifying Day Cream and Clarifying Night Treatment.


Below is the write-up on this product taken from Body Shop US site;





ADAPTIVE SKINCARE THAT BALANCES

Our innovative Seaweed range delivers essential moisture to where your skin is dry and controls shine when and where you need it. Whether your skin is naturally prone to shine or reacts to the weather, our wild-harvested seaweed is a complete and balanced source of nutrients, vitamins and minerals, so your skin is purified and conditioned.


The range is oil-free, alcohol-free and clinically proven to be non-comodogenic. The leave-on products use our special oil-balancing technology that controls existing sebum on the skin for an instantly mattified complexion, while the active ingredients are retained on the skin to be released as oil is produced throughout the day. Your skin appears clarified, hydrated and shine-free all day.

Hi Mimi!

I have been using the seaweed line for more than a year now and yes, although my skin is still oily (but won't become oily as fast as when I was using other products), I know I'll keep using this range for a long time. Just like how long I've been using Body Shop's Tea Tree line (since boarding school!).

You might want to add the Seaweed Ionic Clay mask to your collection. I use it as often as once in every two days and the result has been more than amazing.

Try it!


Love,
Ninie

Hi Ninie,

I went to Body Shop again yesterday to see the rest of the collection but I think if I were to get them now, all my other products will be wasted so I thought let me finish the rest first... I will surely continue on this one if it works like any other products for oily skin!

Thanks Ninie! Good to know that someone else is using this product and hasn't anything bad to say!

Xoxo
