Review: Beyond Belief - Alpha Beta Hydroxy Pore Refining Scrub





Likes:
-Very affordable at $6.49 on http://sallybeauty.com
-The beads are tiny and very gentle on my skin
-Leaves my skin soft and glowy
-Huge tube has 113g/ 4oz of product so this stuff lasts forever. (a little goes a long way)
-The ABH is good for tiny wrinkles

Dislikes:
-Unavailable in Manila. My friend Anne got me a bunch tubes a while back so I'm lucky I still have a few to go through before i run out :)
-The ABH makes skin sensitive to the sun so it's a must to wear sunscreen

Overall:
I am very satisfied with this scub. Before this i was using Clarins Gentle Exfoliating Refiner and i always felt guilty using that because it was so darn expensive., but seriously i could compare Beyond Belief with this. The beads are extremely fine and my sometimes sensitive skin doesn't have a bad reaction to it. It's Heaven sent :) If you can get your hands on these, please try it out. I'm pretty positive you wont regret it :)

Would i purchase again? definitely yes!

Hi Mimi :)
I think this is a great review! I haven't heard of the brand before but it does sound like a really good product. I've always been using Clinique 7 day scrub when it comes to exfoliator, have you tried it?

Anyways, I answered your question about my layout on my blog. I think your layout is very pretty already though, no need to tweak it! ;)
