So we all know I like to harp on about my skin, as I know its a problem I decided to stop moaning and start finding a solution. I'm making it my mission to find the best treatment to combat blemishes, from high street to high end I'm going to give them all a go till I find my favourite!
Recently I tried the Witch Hazel stick and I was so unimpressed, at under £4 I thought I had found a bargain product but I hadn't. So in light of this I decided to go find a high end one to see the difference, hoping to find a miracle cure. I usually love to go to high street pharmacies and department stores, but as I'm on a mission I wanted to go to a stand alone boutique for a change. There isn't many where I am we currently only have one Space Nk in the whole of the region where I live, so whenever I'm near I have to buy at least one thing. As I am on a mission to combat my blemishes I decided to head straight for there and try and find a spot treatment.
I originally wanted the Mario Badescu drying lotion, Ive been wanting to try it for so long but its only available at Harvey Nicholls. I thought surely they would have something for me at Space Nk so after to speaking to the lovely shop assistant they showed me the Eve Lom Dynaspot. I tried this years ago but actually forgot it existed and I have to say when I was reunited I was excited as I remember it being pretty good. It has a very similar formula to the drying lotion, its white/pink and is a thick toothpaste like texture when applied to the face. It does have a slight Casper the friendly ghost look to it when its on, but if you blend it in right you can apply your foundation over the top. When you apply it due to its white formula it almost conceals the blemish, so when you do apply your makeup it almost disappears which is an added bonus. You do have to apply a really thin layer if your going to do this though as it will cake if you slap it on.
Since Saturday I have been smothering this on at night when I go to bed and I have already seen improvements after a couple of days. I have marks from where I have had bad purges before and they wouldn't budge but this has helped to fade them already. I also had small bumps under my skin around my chin and mouth and they have gone down a considerable amount, and any spots that have appeared since go down within hours of applying the Dynaspot.
I have loved using this and for the short time I have been and I have already seen my skin improve. I really would recommend this to anyone who suffers with blemishes. The only downsides to this are the smell which is slightly strange but I think bearable, also the price at £22 its not the bargain I was hoping for. I think as its quite pricey I wouldn't recommend this to any acne sufferers who have very large areas that need treating as you would go through a tube a week. But for anyone like me who gets big painful purges in small areas on their face its great, you don't need to use a lot so it wont break the bank too much.
I know it probably sounds as if my mission is over already but its definitely not, this product is good but I know there is better out there. Are there any you can recommend? Am I going in the right direction heading for the high end of the product scale?
