The
Ginvera Marvel Gel claims to eradicate
blackheads in one step,
clearing
blocked pores that lead to
spots. My skin is prone to
breakouts –
especially in times of
stress – and with deadlines looming I thought this would
be a
good opportunity to test this product out.
The
Ginvera Marvel Gel has a pleasant aroma, and rubs into the
skin easily
and smoothly. You do have to use a
sufficient amount dotting the
gel on
problem areas, across the
T-Zone and cheeks. It is best to
rub the product for
about a
minute with dry fingers by which time often most of the
gel has
rubbed away, leaving the
skin feeling
clean and
fresh. Once rinsed with water
my face felt
slightly tight (I would recommend
moisturising afterwards) and none
of the sticky residue lingered.
Ginvera Marvel Gel is said to
lighten dark spots, freckles or
blemishes and improve the
absorption of
skincare
products, regulating
oil secretion to prevent further breakouts. By removing
the
dead skin cells my skin felt
radiant and fresh, even after a long, Harriet-filled day!
I would recommend
Ginvera Marvel Gel to mums and
teenagers alike, in fact anyone with
problem skin.
PWT rating: ♥♥♥♥♥ My recent
testing of another BB cream,
Clinique Age Defense, has left me a convert so I was happy to try out
Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream.
BB –
Blemish Balm – creams are ideal for those of us with less than perfect skin. The
Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream is a delight to use. If
feels great as you gently pat it on to your
skin and it provides all-day
hydration and
sun protection (SPF30).
You can wear
Ginvera Green Tea Nude Cover BB Cream as a base for your
make-up, or as I found, it
looks great on its own as it
minimises fine lines and gives a
flawless coverage.
