Manuka Vantage New Zealand Manuka Oil Blemish Gel

The bottle doesn't match the facial wash which annoys me a bit but that's being on the super picky end of the spectrum. The bottle is a lot smaller than I would like. You don't need alot of product, but it would be nice for it to be slightly more value for money. The gel is super potent in smell. It's not unpleasant but it's strong. It is a slightly cloudy coloured gel which is quite thin in consistency for a gel. It almost melts away on your fingers.

It instructs you to use the facial wash first for best results which I did. I followed up by using the gel on my problem areas as directed. My problem areas are around the mouth and chin. I started off by having 4 breakouts around my mouth area and chin. They were red and inflamed.

The gel has a cooling effect on my skin and can sting a little on broken skin. It's not painful just tingly. The great thing about it is you use such a small amount that the small bottle would last ages. After a week my skin is nearly cleared up with the exception of one stubborn breakout. It is drying up though and looking less angry. My conclusions are that it definitely works and my skin hasn't behaved this well since before my baby was born. I give it a 4 out of 5 only because of the smell. it's smooth and plump. Love it.

This Definitely helped with my wee spot that came up perfectly in time for the trial. Love the packaging, the green is just stunning. It’s just the smell that wasn’t really for me. I’ve given it to my step daughter to try out!

I usually get a breakout once a month due to my period, so it was a great time to try this out! After washing my face, I applied the gel to a few breakouts that I had. I didn't really notice a huge difference for a few days and since I have other acne treatments that work faster, I would prefer them. This product also have a lovely scent to it. I would recommend this product if you have minor blsmishes and are after something more natural .

Ive never really had good experiences with blemish treatment gels. They used to to dry up on my skin and flake off . I was slightly skeptical that this one would have the same effect .

This jar is green with white writing. Easy to read labelling . Consistency is a clear somewhat cloudy gel . Has a sweet pleasant manuka honey aroma.

I apply this on my forehead because that’s where my blemishes are . I had one large one there . I didn’t notice any irritation . I’m happy that the blemish gel did not dry down and flake off like others I’ve used .

Results from using this is my pimple has since gone . After a week of using it . I’m surprised that it worked . I’m definitely going to buy more for my daughter who’s been using dermalogica clear start with no results . Hopefully this one will work for her too.

This product of the blemish gel smells amazing, it's very fragrant and smells like honey. I wouldn't recommend this product to people who are sensitive to smells. Using the product close to your nose can be very overwhelming. I used the blemish gel after I had used the corresponding cleanser. The blemish gel was nice, easy to use and felt very cooling but it left a sticky and dry feeling on the skin. Overall i'm yet to see a difference after using the product for a week and a half but I will continue to use the product.

I don't have too much to say about this one as I find that it takes a while for me to really compare the results of blemish gels. however, I really liked that this one did not irritate my skin. The consistency is nice, and you only need a tiny bit because it spreads so far. Even though my review is only based on about a week's usage, I can say that I did see a slight result in my spots. this gel helped to reduce the swelling (I'm assuming this is thanks to the manuka), and I really like that it's antibacterial - even if I don't see any visible reduction in blemishes, I know that it's helping to keep my skin clean. I will definitely keep trying this gel as I think it will be useful once incorporated into my skincare routine.

Unfortunately this was a bit of a miss for. It is very drying on the skin and needs moisturiser applied almost instantly. I put it on my and and the next morning it had whiteheads. I usually use tea tree oil for my blemishes and it doesn’t happen with that.

I tested the Manuka Oil Blemish Gel by Manuka Vantage for over a week, and did not notice any improvement in my skin issues.

I have a very oily T zone, and this product states that it penetrates the pores to absorb excess oils, but my oil production hasn't improved.

The gel itself is clear and easily spread, and dries quickly if you don't apply a thick layer. I think it would be a good base under your moisturiser and foundation.

The first time I used this gel it actually stung my skin a bit, but after that occasion it didn't hurt anymore. The smell is the weirdest thing about this product because it smells a bit like apple cider vinegar when I was expecting it to smell like honey! It also makes my eyes sting as It's a very strong smell, but it does subside once it dries.

The product is easy to dispense from the bottle, and the faux green frosted glass design is very pretty.

Overall this gel didn't absorb the excess oil on my face, and it smelt quite strange. It complimented the face wash though so I'll give it that.
