I tried this for the first time yesterday. I bought it after falling in love with the body exfoliator in the same range. The leaflet in the box is well written, explaining how to apply the product to your face. Who knew there was a particular method?! You can feel the beads doing their work as you apply it, but it's not uncomfortable. I really wasn't expecting results any better than my usual facial exfoliator (Clinique's 7-day scrub cream), but as soon as I rinsed my face, I could tell it was completely different. My face was a little pink for a few minutes (the leaflet suggests that people with sensitive skin might do better using this before bed rather than first thing in the morning), but in my case the pinkness went pretty quickly. My face was incredibly smooth immediately after. I applied my normal moisturiser and then make-up. Later on, I noticed how much easier than normal it was to remove my make-up. This morning, I woke up and rubbed my face and was immediately struck by how smooth my face still was. I don't get this with the 7-day scrub! I will definitely continue to use this a couple of times a week. With the 3 for 2 offers, it's great value, too. Well done No7 and Boots!

I have been using this product every week for a few years now. I love how it makes my skin feel - smooth, SO smooth. I find once a week is enough. Boots have discontinued the body version (WHY?!) which was also excellent at smoothing my legs and preventing ingrown hairs. Please bring it back! And don’t discontinue this face one as it’s excellent.

I'm on my second tube of this, I love it, it leaves my face feeling fresh smooth and glowing, I originally brought it to help reduce my pores, whilst I know you cant actually close them, this product does in fact help to minimise the appearance of them, use this twice weekly and you will see a significant difference, ps..I have oily skin, so this is perfect for me

So far I've only used this three times but it's amazing ... skin is literally so much smoother and instantly looks better after using it.

I have been using this product for several years and include it as part of my regular beauty routine. I use the exfoliator 2-3 times per week in the evening. It removes the cloggy build up in my open pores and goes some way to smoothing my skin and leaving it looking fresher, brighter and shining. I have sensitive skin and find if I leave the product on for the brief time recommended that I have no adverse reaction at all. Be sure to moisturise well and wear sunscreen. I find a little goes a long way and the product lasts very well and therefore is good value for money. The tube is soft plastic, so when you near the end of the tube you can cut it in half with a sharp pair of nail scissors, to tease out the last few applications.

Having very sensitive skin I am always reluctant to try new products but I am really glad I took a chance on this one. My skin looks brighter and my acne scars are less visible. I have only been using for three weeks but I will keep using it and hope to see even further improvements.
