Hello everyone, today I am going to be showing you four of the skincare items from the brand Flint plus Flint.
Flint and Flint is a family owned business with not only skincare, but also a chain of cosmetics clinics across England. The owners at the company are determined that if a product does not fit its purpose than they would never put it up for sale. Every product by Flint Plus Flint is made in England and formulated with the best of quality ingredients including many active ingredients in medical dermatology products. At Flint Plus Flint they are so determined that you will love their products and if you don’t get on with them than they will offer a 100% money back refund.
Moving on to the review in itself, can we just take a minute to appreciate this amazing packaging! I really did fall in love with the packaging because I think that it is simple yet has bright pops of colour in the middle in the shape of crosses. The packaging suggests that this is very much a unisex brand as it appears inviting to both females and males. The orange cross on the exfoliator seems to be straying towards the corner, I think this is because I have been using the exfoliator in the shower and it has had the most contact with water than any of the other products, this isn’t really an issue for me because it’s the product itself that counts.

Firstly, I am going to be telling you about the SPF Hand Hero, this hand cream glides onto the skin beautifully and absorbs into the skin very fast leaving no sticky residue, one of the things that I really don’t like and I find happens with most hand creams is that they don’t absorb into the skin and just end up sitting on top of your skin leaving your hands slippery and sticky, this is why I didn’t really use hand cream much before but now Hand Hero has taken things to a whole new level.
With an SPF of 30 Hand Hero protects your skin from UV damage, a small amount goes a long way and it is £24 for 75ml which may seem an expensive price but from the experience that I have had with Hand Hero I would be prepared to get this again. I can truly say that I have never spoken so highly about a cosmetics product but this hand cream really did just blow me away.

The exfoliator 2x was soft and gentle on my skin but still made my face feel refreshed and removed excess dirt, there are small cleansing beads that really scrubbed my face and removed dead skin cells, I would have liked to have more of the cleansing beads personally because I am into the harsher exfoliators but if you like a soft and gentle but effective exfoliator than this is your ideal product.
This exfoliator is called exfoliator two times because it serves two different purposes in one tube and so it combines micro-exfoliation with deep cleansing lipids to remove the build-up of dead skin cells and soften and restore radiance to the skin.
Overall I would recommend this to people with more sensitive skin and like a gentle exfoliator that still provides all of the benefits of a harsher, more rough exfoliator. The exfoliator 2x retails at £30 for 75ml.

Moving on, we have the classic moisturiser, I found that this was similar to the hand cream on the basis that it absorbs really quickly into the skin and doesn’t just lay around on the surface of your skin. The consistency is just right for me because it is not too thick, but not so thin that it might as well be a serum. Personally I prefer my moisturisers slightly on the thinner side because I feel that it gives a dewier, luminous look and doesn’t cake your face too much so it still allows your skin to breath and the consistency for this moisturiser is perfect.
Once again you only need a small amount of the product because it is thin and spreads well on the skin. Overall this has impressed me and I would recommend it to anybody. It is £32 for 50ml.

My final Flint Plus Flint product is the Lip Hero which truly has impressed me, nearly as much as the Hand Hero. Unlike most lip balms that I come along Lip Hero is NOT sticky, and yes I put the word not in capitals because this is very rare, I have come across very few non sticky lip balms, the ones that you don’t get your flyaway strands of hair in. When I first applied Lip Hero I was very surprised at how shiny it made my lips look it was like DR shine paid a visit to Flint Plus Flint and decided to spike the formula with super shine (yes that was a bad attempt at a joke), but honestly I was impressed with the shine on this lip balm.
I found that since I have been using lip hero my lips have become more hydrated and feel much softer and I would definitely get this again

Overall I respect this brand, they clearly know what they’re doing and know how to make an effective product that does what it is supposed to do.
