At first I was hesitant to use this gel daily (it does say safe to use daily) so I used it once a week, but loved the results and oddly the weird "texture" of the exfoliated skin (it meant it was working!) so I started to use it every other day and am so happy with the results.
I have dry but sensitive skin and have not had any issues or poor reactions to the "scrub" - my skin is slightly reddened after using, but soft and velvety and in 15 minutes the redness subsides.
If I use an anti-ageing serum immediately after I find the serum works faster and more effectively.
Highly recommend.
I get this stuff cheap from Singapore, so for me is is great value for money. This is a fantastic gentle exfoliator and for me works better than any other I have ever used. The closest thing I have used to this is Sothys Gommage, yet that does not compare in terms of results. It is gentle yet extremely effective. Apply, rug gently in circular motions and watch the balls of dead skin rub off. I am always amazed at how much of my stratum corneum it can pick up without making my skin feel stripped. I love it.
I love this. I have only used it for a week and it's like I have a whole new face. My skin is clear, marks are fading and my makeup looks flawless. I use this at night and put plenty of moisturiser on after as it can make you skin feel a bit dry. In the morning I wash my face as normal and my skin glows all day. It's so smooth and soft. I also use this to exfoliate my hands before applying havd cream. It is brilliant at exfoliating my constantly dry flaky lips, they are now smooth and I can wear lip stains, I've never been able to before cause of the dry skin. Highly reccommend this product. A little goes a long way so the tube should last ages.
I had watched many reviews on this product and really wanted to give it a go. First off its extremely expensive for the amount you get, I thought it was a tester size.
I used it and awaited the 'little balls of skin' or whatever they are supposed to be to appear. Unfortunately, its just product, and you need to rub a wee bit hard to get them. Knowing me I'm probably using the product wrong, or my oily skin type just absorbs it, but I won't be repurchasing. My dear boyfriend had it trialled on him to see if it worked ay better and it left his face quite red. My skin looks no different after using it and I'm going to fob it off to a friend and see if it works any better for them.
It smells and feels cool and refreshing, but it doesn't do anything for my acne. After use my skin feels a bit dried out, and I can see flaky patches (which the product is supposed to remove?). Though after seeing all these positive reviews I might give it another go ...

Strong scent, not really green tea scent.
Makes skin feel smoother.
Use it once a week.
Helps when there are breakouts.
I've used the original Marvel Gel before and I really liked it, I'm trying the Green Tea version for about 2 weeks now.
I don't really have noticeable blackheads to begin with, so I can't comment on how well that works, but I like this as it makes my face alot smoother and softer to the touch. To be honest, I haven't sensed any difference between this and the original version yet but since there wasn't much difference price wise I thought i'd give it a shot.
I think its a little expensive for just 60ml but I prefer this to traditional grainy srubs. Gentler to the skin and doesn't scratch since its a gel. Especially good for days when there's an occasional pimple.
I have pretty sensitive skin, and certain brands of face wash are too strong for me but this makes my face feel clean, without making it feel tight.
ive been using the product since march and I really like the result.at first was skeptical cause ive read some reviews that it doesnt remove blackheads,but now i noticed that i have minimal blackheads on my nose and my face looks whiter.i defintely gonna buy again!
This has been a staple of mine for many years. Unlike other similar products on the market, the little "balls" of dead skin that come off your face are really dead skin - not scrub particles (The Face Shop's White Jewel scrub...I'm looking at you).
This is a gel that you apply on a dry face, and as you rub gently it emulsifies into a liquid. Dead skin then starts to ball up, and you rinse everything off. If you repeat the process (not recommended), you'll get a lot less dead skin - if any. Ergo, it's not a gimmick.
I believe this is an AHA exfoliator of some kind, so those who are sensitive to AHAs might want to give this a miss. But if you aren't, I highly recommend it as a gentle exfoliator - with no scrubby bits, it's suitable for those who can't use manual exfoliators.
Its not a bad product, i use this to make my skin look fresh and clean! I helps to whiten and brighten my skin after a few wash, which is good. But one thing is it didn't really help me get rid of my blackheads. So i'll say its a good product if its a skin product and not a pores product.
