Hi guys,
I hadn't heard of this brand until I seen a blog
post by Caroline Hirons and instantly I needed in on the action. Caroline
reviewed the JustBe Cleansed Cleansing Balm but I have enough of these and really
wanted to try a great exfoliator so I bought the JustBe Radiant Gentle Exfoliator
(£18.50 for 100ml) and the Blemish Control Gel (£9.50).
About the
Company
JustBe is a natural range for the face, body and
home. They smell incredible and are filled with therapeutic benefits. All
products are handmade in Scotland by Aromatherapist Gail Bryden using purely
natural ingredients. The company’s core
values are authenticity, passion and purity.
After I ordered online I received an email from Gail
over at JustBe who advised she didn't have the correct container for the
exfoliator and would I mind if she decanted into a tub along with a spatula,
obviously I didn't I just wanted to try these delicious products. I do love
when company's email you to let you know of any problems rather than send
something they know might be a problem.
My parcel arrived very quickly, I think it took 2
days or something like that. The packaging was absolutely beautiful. I loved
the dark pink bow across the box which added a little character. The products
themselves were beautiful too, they carried the same colour scheme and looked
very fresh and clean.
Just Be Radiant Gentle Exfoliator
Ingredients: Coconut Oil, Coconut Solid, Jojoba Oil,
Coco Glucoside, Beeswax, Vitamin E, Jojoba Beads, Pink Grapefruit Oil and
Mandarin Oil.
Directions
Apply and massage all over your face, clean off with
a face cloth or muslin cloth.
Dry Skin – Use 2 to 3 times per week
Oily Skin - Use every 7 to 10 days.
My Thoughts
Upon opening, I thought my life had ended and I was
being raised up into Heaven! Well, maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration haha
but the reason for this is the smell. It smells so luxurious and literally makes
me want it in every bath product you could imagine.
Its pretty simple to use, just scoop out a little
using the spatula provided and then work into your skin. It actually feels like
a cleansing balm as its thick and I have to say, its refreshing to have an
exfoliator that doesn’t feel harsh on the skin. The beads in this product are
quite large compared to other exofliators I have tried in the past.
I liked how my skin looked and felt after using this
balm like product as it looked glowing and felt instantly smoother. I usually
have red skin after washing my face, especially with harsher products but I
have to say, it looked calm and sooth.
Clear Blemish Control
Ingredients: Orange Blossom Floral Water, Witch
Hazel, Spearmint Oil and Tea Tree Oil.
Directions
Apply as often as you wish to the infected areas.
My Thoughts
Again, the scent with this is just beautiful, I
found myself using it every couple of hours just so I could have a sniff ha! I
did get a little spot or two on my chin just before this arrived so I wanted to
try it out straight away. I liked how easy this was to use as its just a little
roller. If you are a bit of a hygiene buff then you could use a cotton bud to
get some of the product out and put on spots that way.
It did take a couple of days for the blemishes to
start disappearing but the instant cooling sensation it gave was incredible.
The only thing that put me off was the fact that it gave me white heads round
about my blemish area, this is obviously due this the high oil content in the
treatment. I haven't ever found a blemish control treatment that actually works
but this did relax the infected area and my spots began to fade after a few
days.

Final
Thoughts:
Great products. As you can see from the before and after pictures above, the gel actually works. I have loved using these products and will be repurchasing the exfoliator as soon as it runs out but I dont think I will buy the gel again as I didnt like the trapped oil problem.
Have you tried any products from this brand?
Let me know in the comments below
These look really interesting. I am always on the hunt for anti blemish products that work and just keep the skin looking good in general. Will go check them out - thank you for your review :) x
