I have been missing in action for some time now...havnt posted since 2 weeks and really lagging behind in reading other blogs too :( Just caught up with alot of things in life but I hope to get back to regular blogging now..
The product I am going to talk about today is a new launch in the market and I had been waiting to try it since the time I saw the ads on TV which looked quite appealing but I was sceptical about its tall claims so wanted to try for myself....Clean & Clear Blackhead Clearing Daily Scrub!
The scrub comes in the std C&C packing of a blue colored tube with dark blue top cover.
What it claims : A unique blend of micro-scrubbing beads works to break down trapped dirt, oil and dead skin cells that can cause blakcheads. Next, the natural apple extract formula penetrates deep down into the pores to help soften stubborn blackheads and prevent new ones from forming. Its gentle exfoliating action gives you visibly less blackheads in just 3 days for a clean, clear and beautiful skin.
Claims to be oil-free. Wont clog pores. Visibly less blackheads in 3 days!
Active Ingredients :
This is not just a scrub, but a lathering scrub or a facewash if you may say so.
To use, squeeze product on palm and work into a rich lather. Gently massage lather onto face, concentrating on blackhead prone areas like nose and chin.

The facewash/scrub is not at all runny in texture,it is almost transparent with extremely micro scrubbing particles, some blue in color. The texture of the scrub is also very very soft and hence it is gentle for daily use too. It smells quite pleasant.
Price : Rs. 90 for 80 gm.
What I like about C&C Blackhead Clearing Daily Scrub :
- As per the claim, the scrub is very gentle for daily use. It is not at all abrasive or harsh on the skin
- It leaves the face squeeky clean and I like the feel of my skin after use. My skin feels very soft because afterall it is a scrub!
- Does not leave my skin dry after use.
- The fragrance is very pleasant.
- It stands true to its claim of not clogging pores. At times I noticed that the pores on my chin had opened up after using this scrub.
What I dont like about C&C Blackhead Clearing Daily Scrub :
- It fell totally short on its tall claim of less blackheads in just 3 days for me !! I dont have heavy blackheads and I did not see any reduction in the number of blackheads even after using this for more than 3 days !! It works just like a normal facewash and does nothing to reduce the blackheads which is the main purpose of this product!
- Though it did open up the pores on my chin at times, it strangely did not work on the blackheads on my nose ??
Have you tried this blackhead clearing daily scrub? Does it work on your blackheads?
