Does anyone use it?

I think it's this one www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&productId=1440758

I keep hearing good things about it, but can anyone clarify exactly what it is? Is it a serum? Cream? Oil? Do you use it as a spot cream? Moisturiser? Pre-moisturising?

Many thanks

It's a moisturiser aimed at those of us with greasy/combination, spot prone skin. I find it a bit too harsh now (I've switched to this www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007MTMGGI/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) but when my skin was at its worst it was a godsend.

I've been using it for around 3 months and it has totally transformed my hormonal, sensitive, spotty skin into a clear complexion and I can't remember the last time I had a new spot. I am happy to go without foundation which I would never have done before. I also use the face wash from the same range. In the first few weeks of using the Duo cream, I found my skin was a bit flaky, but that went after about a month. I put it all over my problem areas (cheeks and neck), and then use a La Roche Posay tolerance moisturiser over the top, which I think is for sensitive skin. I also use a separate eye cream. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

It seems like a cross between a moisturiser and serum but with spot prevention properties. It's really helped my v spot-prone skin

So, it's good stuff then? Where is the cheapest place to buy it?

Boots have it on 2-for-1 fairly frequently so I always stock up then
