I had to share this new discovery with you, coz I love it so much! I stumbled on the brand Evolve Organic Beauty online one day, and was quite intrigued both by their esthetic as well as their products and price point. It was fairly reasonably price by my books.
I picked up a few items, but the first I dug into, and immediately fell in love with, was the Evolve Organic Beauty Gentle Cleansing Melt. It is such a delight use, and feels so amazing on the skin!
Continue ReadingOne of the more interesting questions I get about skincare routines is whether you need to use different products for day and night.
It most certainly does look that way, when you read most people’s skincare routines. Day and night time routines often differ, and their choice of products too.
I discussed this a little while ago, if you’d like to read it 😉
But what about cleansers? Couldn’t we just use the same one both in the morning and night? After all, they serve the same function don’t they? Or perhaps, we should use different ones that have different textures?
What do you do? Do you have just one cleanser for day and night or do you use different ones? 😀
Continue ReadingI’m going to spoil this review for everyone and say this : I don’t know if I can use another cleansing balm after this Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm, simply because I love it so much!
I have enjoyed using it so much, I’m toying with the idea of repurchasing. This, despite knowing that I have other cleansing balms or creams in my stash waiting to be used up. I don’t even want to consider using another, and just want to savour every last bit of this balm.
It is that good, and that addictive! 😀
Continue ReadingI am an avid user of cleansing balm or balm cleansers. You all know that. I have a whole repository dedicated to the ones I’ve tried, because I’ve tried and used so many over the years. Some I love, some I don’t.
You may notice I haven’t been talking about them lately. There’s a good reason. I’m trying to be good about using up my skincare, and all that takes a while. So, when I love a product, I don’t want it to go bad, so I spend more time on it.
But when I was using up my latest ones (Innisfree Cleansing Balm and Elemis Pro-Collagen cleansing balm) I realised that I’d strayed a little further than I thought from my favourite TYPE of cleansing balm.
Newer formulations of cleansing balms tend to emulsify with water, which makes them easier to rinse off. This makes cleansing balm more acceptable to many people, because it is easy to use, and familiar if you’re coming from the world of cleansing oils.
But truth be told, as convenient as it is, it isn’t the TYPE of cleansing balm I favour. So, when I broke open by Pixi Nourishing Cleansing Balm that I’d been saving for a while, and found myself reaching once again for my face flannel, I knew I’d love this one!
