BV Product Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Visibly clearer skin Neutropenia visibly clear spot proofing, does exactly as it says on the tin. I received this product and that night it because apart of my daily routine, once a day, you only need to use a small amount and the orange gel which contains small blue beads which scrub your face, but gently. Leaves your face feeling soft and refreshed. And smell nice too! After only using it for a couple of days, I had noticed a changed in my appearance the spots already there were gone and no new break outs, which I usually get at that time of the month.. I will continue to use this product and sticking with my daily routine. I would highly reccomed this to anyone who suffers breaks out. For the first time in a long time I enjoyed a night out, break out free!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Spots? What Spots?! I think this product is fabulous and wish I had found it before now! I have tried so many products on the market and as I suffer with oily skin, when I wear make up, my pores clog and I constantly get spots. I have been using Neutrogena spot proofing smoothing scrub for over 10 days now and my skin is fantastic from day 1. I haven't had any break outs since I started using this product and what spots I did have when starting, cleared up very quickly leaving my skin looking fab and smooth. I will definitely continue using this product and have already gotten my friends to buy it!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Visibly clear scrub I have been using this scrub once daily for 2 weeks now. The scrub has a nice texture, not too rough. It has a very nice smell and foams up slightly as you use it. I think that it has beads that burst and scrubbing granules. My skin felt very clean after using it. I sometimes get dry skin which can be made worse when using scrubs but that didn't happen with this scrub. My skin did feel smoother after using it. I have to say that the scrub did not 'spot proof' my skin. Although my skin felt smoother I did still get small break outs while using it. Having said this I think that the scrub helped to heal the spots faster than other face washes that I have used before. I will continue to use this face scrub daily.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Kimberleyk I think this product is fabulous. I suffer with oily skin and I wear make up which really clogs pores so I can get break outs of spots quite rapidly. I have been using Neutrogena spot proofing smoothing scrub for over 10 days now and my skin is fantastic. I haven't had any break outs since I started using this product and I can definitely see a difference in my skin as it looks so much clearer. If you have oily skin and wear make up every day then I recommend this product as a way of keeping your skin spot free and clear. I will definitely continue using this product!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Neutrogena Visibly Clear Unlike many other products this does leave my skin feeling, fresh, clean and smooth but not spot free or blemish free. I wouldn't say a noticed a difference in clearing spots or defending breakout from day one unfortuantley but my face did look healthier. The exfoliating formula isnt harsh but very gentle, which I guess is ideal for sensitive skin. Therefore, for my particular skin type (which this is marketed to) I wouldn't brand it as a scrub. It is otherwise a very nice product, it smells fresh and is a lovely product to use. I would reccomend it as a face wash rather than a scrub however.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from This has ruined my skin. Be careful if sensitive! I’ve always used Neutrogena products as I love the pink grapefruit scrub wash and the everyday spot face wash. I decided to give this scrub ago as I've been having more breakouts recently since turning 30. I am extremely disappointed with the results! After only 1 use I woke up to red, blotchy, incredibly rough to the touch skin covered in tiny bumps! I immediately stopped using however I’m left with loads of blackheads on my face and tiny fluid filled bumps. I've also read other reviews from people that have had the same reaction. I imagine the % of acid is too high and therefore shouldn't be outlined that it is okay for sensitive skin. Be very careful when choosing this product even if you’ve always used Neutrogena.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Clean , fresh , soft ! I've been using neutrogena morning and night for 4 days now and I'm already seeing a good difference ! My skin is so much softer , My pores look tighter and my face is smoother looking totally love it ! Love the clean fresh smell too and it's not too hard or gritty on my sensitive skin so it definitely can be used daily . The best think is I have had less big breakouts woohoo ! The seal is brilliant so you don't end up with it all clogging up in the lid and going stale and yuk , stays put the bottle where it should . It's not the cheapest brand on the market folks but it does appear to be working for me so it's worth the extra and I'll buy more when I see it on offer . I would definitely recommend this product , Thanks neutrogena !

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Just love it! The neutrogena visibly clear just Wow! Been using it now for a week not a single breakout to be seen! Leaves my skin feeling soft and clean! The product has little microbeads meaning its really getting down into your pores and they don't breakaway so really give you that deep clean feeling! smells divine as well it's oil free so doesnt add more oil to you face to make you break out! And is perfect for sensitive skin I have used others and will be 100% changing my old brand to this one! Will be recommending to my friends who have bad skin!
