Farewell Friday #6

Hey everyone! 
I've only got a stock photo of this weeks Farewell Friday, because I left it empty in the bathroom and someone threw it away!
I've been using the Boots Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Foaming Face Wash for a good few months, and I think I've tested it long enough to give a fair review :)

The packaging says to wet face and dispense two amounts of the foam into your palm, and massage onto your face. Firstly I will say, this product actually comes out like a foam, kind of like a hair mousse!
I don't know whether that's obvious to other people, but I wasn't expecting it! The other thing I will say is, I think I've got a fairly normal sized face, and one amount of foam was enough for me! 

Whilst I was using this, my skin did become really clear, and the best that it's been in years. I'm not entirely sure whether it's down to this, or a mixture of factors, but since I've stopped using it, my face has become a lot worse.

I used to use this twice a day, and sometimes more on problem areas, such as my chin. I would have thought that would dry out my skin, but it didn't seem to, which is really good.
Since I ran out, I thought I'd try a different tea tree wash (Body Shop), but I definitely prefer the Boots one!

Pro's:
Didn't dry out my skin
Seemed to help my spots
Lasted a long time
Wont break the bank!
Didn't have an overpowering smell

Con's:
The packaging isn't amazing (doesn't bother me though!)
The pump dispenser sometimes made a painful 'nails along a chalkboard' noise when you pressed it down

Would I repurchase? Yes, I'm going to buy it again soon! I think it's amazing value for money, and seemed to make a real difference to my skin.

The Boots Tea Tree and Witch Hazel Foaming Face Wash is £3.59 for 150ml (currently on 3 for 2!) and can be bought in Boots stores, and online.

Anyone else tried this? Or got any Tea Tree recommendations?

  1. Oh I really want to try this out. It's fairly dear here but if it's good then it should be worth it.

  2. I used the moisturiser from this range which wasn't the most amazing thing I've ever tried but did keep spots at bay somewhat :) This sounds really good and worth a try for such a bargainous price!
