It came beautifully hand wrapped in lovely tissue paper as do all their products ,which i think is a lovely and very personal touch. 
 I fell in love with this the first time I used it .The tonic is so refreshing and contains Vitamin E , cucumber and Aloe Vera which soothe and soften the skin and Glycerin which draws water from the atmosphere to the skin.It is very uplifting, refreshing and revitalizing,this one does it's job of toning and freshening but with a heavenly fragrance, and really gives you a boost (in my case makes me Happy). I actually ENJOY using this product.
The bottle comes with a twist up lid which is great and convenient, because you twist to dispense on the cotton ball, then twist to close,EASY ! I know for lazy girls like me, so it is really hygienic and the product stays fresh. I get reaction if some skin care product doesn't suit me , What I have found particular good, is that my skin does not react to the products.
Its a great product for animal lovers , why? This product is completely animal friendly and as well as not being tested on animals, has no animal extracts and i am a Muslim so its Alcohol free, its a PLUS for me.
The Instant Boost Skin Tonic retails at £11.00 for a 200 ml bottle. There are other offers for this, for instance, a spritzer bottle, and all of these offers can be found on the website.


    Gentle Face Exfoliator  
What it is?
This kind, yet effective facial polisher is ideal for gently buffing away dead skin cells and impurities to leave all skin types (except sensitive) brighter, smoother and fresher. 
  
What does it do?
  •   Sweet almond oil helps to regulate the skin's moisture level.
  •     Cocoa butter is rich and nourishing and ensures your skin is left feeling smooth and soft.
  •     Jojoba beads gently roll over skin without scratching. These specially selected tiny natural spheres are the kind way to buff away dead skin cells and help unblock pores to reveal cleaner, brighter skin underneath.
  • Eucalyptus oil is antiseptic, anti-inflammatory and cooling; it helps invigorate your circulation and gives the product its stimulating aroma.
 How to Use?

Apply 2 pumps to clean skin after using Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser. Gently massage in with your fingertips using light, circular movements.
Concentrate on the most commonly congested areas of skin such as the forehead, nose, chin and jawline but avoid your eye area. Fingertip pressure and the gentle friction of the beads will stimulate blood flow and slough away dead skin cells helping to unblock pores.Rinse off with warm water and gently pat your face dry using a soft towel.
Finish by toning and hydrating skin with Instant Boost Skin Tonic and massaging in Skin Repair Moisturizer to help strengthen and protect.


Texture:
The texture is creamy, with little scrubby bits in it- jojoba beads

The price starts at £4.75 for a 15ml tube, £7.75 for a 50ml tube and £12.25 for a 70ml tube.

I am Big fan of Liz Earle as you can see from previous review. But I must say that I personally keen on the smell of this one too. It smells a bit like mint & eucalyptus . I am a fan of eucalyptus smell because i personally find it soothing.But its not very over powering.Its a beautiful smelling Exfoliator

This Gentle Face Exfoliator is a kind and effective polisher which buffs the skin for a brighter complexion. My skin felt quite soft after using this. It does say not for use on sensitive skin and I do have sensitive skin but *phew* it didn't irritate my skin or gave me any red spots.For me its kind of buffer, and polishes away dead and dry skin, giving the skin a nice texture and glow.I use the product when the skin is looking a tad dry and dull. The skin really shines after the use. I like the pump dispenser, it is non messy and fussy.

Over all its a mild exfoliater ,Its quite gentle yet scrubs off dead skin well.
