Body shop face product via Avon products

Evening peps 
Just wondering on other opinions about both brands? Which one would you go for?? I'm looking for some products to help my combination skin I do have outbreaks of spots and gresse skin. 

Thanks

    In my opinion Body Shop are a tad batter than Avon. I'd suggest to go in a Body Shop shop if you can and have one close and have a chat and ask for some samples to try at home to see if they suit your skin.

    I wouldn't use either, I'd look at brands like "the ordinary" or "inkey list" and get things like Niacinamide & Zinc and hylauronic acid serums -

    Boots links below, but they are widely available.

    If you only want to use Avon or The Body Shop, I'd use the latter as you can more easily talk to an assistant (once the shops reopen)

    I agree with Emmia. Both Body Shop and Avon tend to have heavily fragranced products with cause needless irritation to skin. The Ordinary and Inkey List are both very reasonably priced and the quality of the products are brilliant. I use both. 
  • I third @Emmia and agree with @GBNI. I've only in the past few months really started doing a proper skincare routine and paying attention to the ingredients in what I'm putting on my face. The Ordinary, Revolution, La Roche-Posay, CeraVe are some of my favourite brands so far, and I find them very reasonably priced.
