review: La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo +

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo [+] (40ml) - £15.50* 

(£10.33 just now - bargain!)

I have read so many great reviews of this anti-blemich gel, suffice to say I wasn’t disappointed either.

The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo which came out quite a while ago was for targeting new spots and blemishes but the The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo [+] is the improved version which also eliminates redness and any marks left by the spots or breakout alongside any new blemishes or spots like the previous one. 

I have been trailing this product for a good few weeks now and i’ve noticed differences very soon after I apply it. I have used this gel on days where I get a slight breakout, ya’know that sore red bump that makes an unexpected appearance?! It instantly soothes spots and makes it look less obvious and feel less sore. When you apply the gel you can notice a difference straight away; blemishes and acne scarring fade helping your skin look more even. I know if I carry on using this product the blemishes will most likely completely disappear. I have been using this gel only when I need it and I think I will carry on using it that way, it’s great for when you are targeting new spots. Because this is a thin gel based product I still needed to use a moisturiser on top but for those with oilier skin you may be able to do without.

The gel also helps prevent excess oil buildup by mattifying your skin, it evens out the texture and also removes blackheads.

I can’t believe I hadn’t tried this product sooner. It is definitely a product I am going to make sure is in the drawer at all times for those days when you get sudden unexpected breakout. I highly recommend it and can already tell I will be buying a few more as back ups!

Have you tried this product before? Or even heard of it?
