Product Review: Freederm (Skincare)

Hey, if you're reading this.
So for my first blog post, I wasn't really sure what to write it about, but I figured for people to actually want to read or follow my blog, there had to be at least one remotely interesting post. So, here I am.
Freederm-some peole love it, some hate it. I have seen many mixed reviews about these products you see. It has been out for a while, although I suppose, technically, it is quite a recent company/product.

I picked up my first Freederm product about a year ago, I think. (I'm not really sure) Either way, I have been using Freederm for a while, and I have to say, I love it! Almost 12 months ago, a friend recommended Freederm to me, and I have been using it ever since. I have been using the Freederm Sensitive Facial Wash, and it is supposed to combat "excess oil" I have combination to oily skin, so I thought this would work a treat. I wouldn't say it gives you instant results, but I can definitely say that after a couple of months, I noticed a difference. After washing my face in the morning/evening with it, I wouldn't be as oily and also I didn't have as many breakouts.
Along with using the Freederm Sensitive Facial Wash, I also used the Freederm Perfecting Moisturiser. Which, although was good, I didn't repurchase, as (I'm not sure if this is going to make sense) but the transition from my old moisturiser to the Freederm one was quite horrible. Although on the packaging it says "100% oil free" the moisturiser felt quite light (which is a good thing) but didn't sit well on my face. I think that may just be me, so I'd test it out for yourself, if you're going to try it. But, eventually I got used to the moisturiser, however I didn't think it was reaaaally "amazing" or anything. Just average, I guess. I'm not really sure...

I've also used Freederm Exfoliating Daily Wash, which "combats blackheads" and I thought this was a good product also. The beads in it are quite small, so it is gentle and I would say definitely suitable for everyday. I found that, again, after a couple of months most of my blackheads were gone and my skin tone was more even. Although, I still have a few pesky ones on my nose, chin and cheeks. Gah!

I'd say that the Freederm products don't really have a smell to it, or if they do it is very faint and not particularly appealing. The consistency of the Facial Washes is quite "runny" I guess, so you have to be careful when squeezing the product out other wise you'll use it up very quickly. The prices seem to be constantly changing, whenever I go to purchase it, so get them when they're on offer (I suggest). However, I do think it is a reasonable price-it ranges from about £4 to just over £6. I get mine from Superdrug, but I believe they are available at any drug store. I've seen them in my local pharmacy too!
If I were to rate the Freederm products I have mentioned here out of 5, I would give it a 3.5/5





I have wanted to try the Freederm Fast Track Spot Gel for a while, but I've seen mixed reviews-if any of you guys have tried it, what did you think? And do you think it is worth getting?

Hope you enjoyed reading this post, and I hope it was helpful. Please leave a comment, I'd love to see what you guys think and follow some other interesting blogs! :)

  3. hey hunny welcome to bloggig great first review.

    I have tried a couple of these products but didn't really take to them to be honest but everyone's skin is different i think i agree with you 3.5 as they did prevent the oil build up which was one of my biggest issues.

  7. That is really interesting, I've actually gone 'skin care vegan' atm because I've never ever had any good results from any products and it just makes my money disappear but I'd definitely be interested in giving these ago.
    You have a lovely blog! ♥
