REVIEW | ORIGINS SUPER SPOT REMOVER


 This is the 'IT' spot treatment. Alongside Sudocrem, it is known as the best spot treatment and the blogs have been all over it!

It retails for about £12 and I got mine from the Origins counter in House of Fraser. It's a gel consistency with witch hazel and clove oil with makes it smell very simple and herbal. You just apply a tiny amount to the spot and after a few hours it dries over the spot until you wash your face. It feels very refreshing and it does sting quite a bit when it's applied but I kind of like that because it feels like it's really deeply targeting the spot.  

I was really impressed when I started using this. A little goes a very very long way which means the £12 price tag is perfect reasonable as this little baby lasts for ages. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for people with acne as I don't know how it would work but for hormonal breakouts or that pre-date zit it's perfect! It doesn't remove the spot completely - this isn't Harry Potter after all - but it reduces the size dramatically and the redness and tenderness of the spot.

This treatment is perfect for before bed. We've all had that experience with the Sudocrem all over the sheets... but this stays on all night. It says you can apply make up over it but I actually find that the treatment dries and flakes and it looks terrible under make up so this is best used overnight or washed off before make up application.

Overall, I love this treatment so so much and it's totally affordable! Have you tried it?
Thanks guys. Take care x
