So! Onward.
The item: Sanctuary Warming Dermabrasion Polish.
The review: London Beauty Review.
The second opinion: I wage a sad, daily war with the unpredictable oilslick of vindictiveness that is my complexion, and I liked this a lot, largely because it's significantly cheaper than the last stuff I had which did the same job (Origins made it, and it smelled nice, but good God was it expensive)*. It didn't do much immediately for my face - disappointing based on the review, but that sounded like the reviewer used it regularly so maybe that's why. I used it last night and did find myself thinking my face felt softer when cleansing tonight. (I stroked it a bit, like a lady in a Fairy Liquid ad.) That said, the dual warming and exfoliating effect was very nice, even though I used a big dollop when maybe should have only used a thin layer. (The instructions were not specific.) Also there's something a bit satisfying about exfoliating. I will use this for the three times a week recommended.
* The original reviewer has this whole thing about how it used to be cheaper before Sanctuary got all rebranded, and I feel her, because I just bought a pair of shoes that are lovely but were £8 cheaper when I bought them in a different colour in spring (yeah, you, Office: on notice), but I never bought this stuff before so it didn't bother me. Actually, it bothered me a little bit, but only because I'd read her review. Otherwise I would never have known they slapped on another couple of quid because they changed the colour of the box or whatever. And then it wouldn't have bothered me at all.
