My Thoughts
I love that these Neutrogena products contain extracts of grapefruit and salicylic acne treatment. It's been known that some citrus fruits such as grapefruit can help reduce hyperpigmentation. I usually have hyperpigmentation issues on my cheeks during PMS, and last week was no different. I noticed a change after using both products. The dark spots were fading quicker than usual.
Both products are oil free acne washes which is good for me because during PMS I have acne prone oily skin. I use products with Salicylic acid since salicylic acid may helps reduce my acne acne temporarily. Over the course of last week, I used these products every other day since salicylic acid tends to dry my skin. By using these products every other day, my skin doesn't feel dry. Outside of PMS week, I'll only use a facial scrub once or twice a week. The cleansers makes my face feel refreshed and the scrub is gentle and lathers well. I thought these products were going to have a strong grapefruit scent. The grapefruit smells really good and the scent isn't overpowering, or at least to me the scent isn't too strong.
If you have combination skin (normal/oily) like I have, this cleanser and scrub may work well for you. Both products are oil free, but as I mentioned they're not drying. the Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit Acne Wash Cleanser and Acne Wash Scrub have become a staple in my skincare routine!
Such an interesting line!

DeleteHi Pilar! I havent´t tried these products yet, but they look very interesting.
ReplyDeleteI hope you´ll visit my blog soon. I follow you. Have a nice day!
Thanks Marinela for visiting and following my blog! I will be visiting you blog soon! You have a nice day as well!
DeleteSo you used the scrub every other night too? I think that would be a Little too much for my skin, I tend to use scrubs once a week maybe.
ReplyDeleteAnne|Linda, Libra, Loca
I'm glad you asked that Anne. I went back and clarified that. Typically I'll use a scrub once week. I tend to breakouts during PMS week, so I'll use a gentle scrub every other day or every two days depending on the breakout. This scrub is pretty gentle, so it doesn't irritate my skin. I try not to use scrubs too often because just like you it can be too much for my skin.
DeleteI love Neutrogena products
ReplyDeleteI'm sure to like these.

ReplyDeleteThese products work so well for my skin!
DeleteI love Neutrogena products and these sound perfect for my skin. Great review doll.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nerline!
DeleteHello, thanks for the information. xx
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
DeleteI used to use this range back in the day and it was really good. I don't really suffer breakouts anymore because I'm really careful about what I eat.
ReplyDeleteI don't get breakouts too often either except during that time of the month, or extreme weather changes. That's so true about watching what you eat. It can make all the difference in having acne prone skin.
DeleteLove your review on these products. I have trouble with oily skin and knowing that these face cleaning products don't leave your skin oily or dry is good. Do you recommend using both types of wash or just one? I can't wait to see your next review on a product.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kristen! Both products are good, but if I had to choose, I would go with the cleanser. I've been using the scrub daily. Sure you can use the scrub daily, but some people such as myself find using a scrub daily too harsh for skin. The only time I'll use a scrub every other day or every two days is during PMS week if I have breakouts. Typically outside of PMS acne issues, I'll just use a scrub one maybe twice a week.
DeleteI'm using Neutrogena and it helped control my acne. I eventually switched to OSEA skincare set and it slowly removed all my acne. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading.
