I bought all six items to see if they were any good. I’ve only just discovered Dr Anita Rattan and was interested in trying skin care developed by an actual GP.
OIL MELTING CLEANSER: Had to use it a few times to get the hang of it. It does what it says on the tin - removed all my make up very well. I was impressed with the fact that it took my mascara off really well with no traces left behind. However I needed much more than two pumps for it to work properly.
MICELLAR GEL WASH: This was very good. I was expecting my skin to be dry and tight because that’s all I’ve ever known after washing my face. My face didn’t feel tight at all, in fact it felt quite soft which was nice. Took all traces of dirt and the Oil Melting Cleanser off. My face felt fresh and clean.
SUPER HYDRATING TONER: I love my toners and have my favourite so Dr Vanita’s one had a lot to live up to - but it did its job. I was pleasantly surprised. My face felt nice and fresh. I was a little confused though - when I saw her spray the toner directly on her face in her video, I then discovered mine was not a spray and had to pump it onto a cotton pad. You could, of course, pump it directly into your hands, but I like using cotton pads. Again you need far more than one or two pumps. Although there is no fragrance, the toner has a faint smell of baby powder, which was lovely. Definite thumbs up for the toner.
ANTIOXIDANT POWER SERUM: I’ve been through a few serums in my time, but this one is really lovely. It leaves your face so soft and smooth. A little goes a long way with this one.
CERA PEP MOISTURISER: Well - what can I say? This was very creamy and fairly thick, but not greasy. It left my skin very soft and smooth. You don’t need much as a little goes a long way. I know these products have no fragrance for a very good reason, but I do miss it. I kept smelling them, but nothing. LOL
EXFOLIATE TO GLOW: This one was hard to wrap my head around as I’m so used to exfoliating with some form of grains or gravel in the product to take that top layer of dead skin cells off. This has none of that, so I found it difficult to accept that it works. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t work, it’s just that I haven’t adjusted to it yet.
On the whole these products work very well and I would buy most of them again and would definitely recommended them.
I also have to say, the Dr V products have cut the cost of other products, as I don’t need to use as many. I also don’t need cotton pads to remove my eye make up, I don’t need facial wipes, I don’t need micellar water and a few other bits and pieces. So this has saved me a fair bit of money too.
