Review: Clean & Clear morning energy facewashes

The last time I wrote about Clean & Clear, my review was pretty disastrous. I was just extremely disappointed in what I thought was a good inexpensive brand. I was a little suspicious of the tiny morning energy face washes in the stores, but on seeing Cynthia from my favourite beauty blog Indian Vanity Case rave about what looked like something similar, I was curious to see if they were any good and if maybe I'd dismissed the brand too quickly.

Clean & Clear Blackhead Clearing Daily Scrub: Review

Once upon a time there was a tiny black dot called a blackhead. He looked at the spotless nose around him, and he quite liked what he saw. He decided he would conquer the entire territory. Slowly, one by one, he and his descendants started growing, expanding their kingdom until they had covered the entire nose. And there they stayed, guarding their territory. That is, until I discovered their arch nemesis - The Scrub. 

I have the most stubborn blackheads perched around my nose thanks to my combination-oily skin. Even though I'm not a huge fan of scrubs, I've been stocking up on them ever since I waged war on the blackhead colony on my nose some years back. This was my very first scrub, so I thought I should review it. My initial intention was to get the Garnier Pure Active Scrub, but since the shop near my house didn't have it, I ended up purchasing this instead (I had quite liked the Clean & Clear ads on TV that were so frequent back then - I know, buying a product based on advertisements is something you should never ever do, but sometimes you can't help yourself, you know?).
