Reviews of Skin+Me

Hello,

I'm looking for an effective skin care routine and something I can rely on and was recommended Skin+Me.

I'm sick of wasting money on various cleansers, serums and moisturisers that I don't get on with and that leaves my skin irritated/worse than it was before.

Has anyone tried and had good results from it?

Thank you Smile

I'm coming to the end of my 4th month of Skin and Me and it's made a huge difference for me.
I've had acne for about 2 years which wasn't getting any better. I had huge spots that would really mark my skin and just as some cleared, more would start.
It took a while with Skin and Me to start with. My skin did purge. It was like I got spots every where I used to get them but they've not returned. I still have some slight scarring left which is getting better and in the last week I've felt good enough not to wear any foundation or concealer which is a huge thing for me. I will definitely keep it up. I like the simplicity of the routine and also that the tretinoin dose isn't as high as Dermatica as my skin is quite sensitive and did get a bit red and flaky when the dose went up so I don't think I could have coped with starting that high.

I did it for about a year. Then stopped as it wasn’t great. Customer service is really hilariously bad.

I have used it and dermatica, prefer skin and me. I tend to change delivery to every 6 weeks and slap it on every other night.

I am 47 and my skin is in good shape. It improved texture a lot and I get compliments on it but it's not a quick fix or an amazing improvement, just a bit better.

I do still get some peeling if I am not careful and sensitivity if I use it too frequently.

I have pared my routine right back - cerave cleanser, a vit c serum and a hydrating gel moisturiser for evening. This is helpful from a cost perspective

Spf every day too obvs

I’m in my 3rd month, for acne. I did have some really bad spots for a fortnight or so about 6 weeks in, not in the usual place, and was tempted to chuck it, but it seems a lot better again now. I’m still getting the odd spot but feel confident just wearing a bit of concealer and cc cream rather than the full foundation, concealer, powder routine. Stripping the rest of the routine right back feels like it’s been a good thing, and I think my skin texture/wrinkles are seeing the benefit of the tretinoin. Early days and I’m not raving about it but cautiously optimistic.

I switched to skin+me from Dermatica and found the consistency of their cream much less drying despite having the same prescription- tret and hydroquinone for ageing and pigmentation.

I'd highly recommend it - I've never spent so little on skincare since signing up for these, no more money wasted on the latest 'miracle' cream!
