Love At First Wipe!
(excuse the pun!)
After using these product for around a month now, I thought it would be fair to review it as I have given them a fair run!
Firstly i'll start with Cleanse & Polish. I love this cleanser, it's now my staple cleanser in my skincare routine. I never really had a skincare routine as such before. I used Soap & Glory's 'Peaches & Clean' cleanser occasionally, but I just used to think taking my makeup off with a makeup wipe was enough, clearly I had been living in the stone ages and didn't realize what I had been doing to my skin and how many amazing products were out there to try!
(100ml pump £13.25)
The consistency of this cleanser is amazing. It's thick and creamy and feels lice when applied to the skin. I have started to see some real results with this product! My skin is a lot clearer and feels plumper and refreshed after I use it. The Muslin cloths are soft and gentle on the skin, even round the eye area. You don't need to press hard or scrub hard to get any makeup off your face, it just simply glides off your face with little effort needed! If I wear heavier makeup for say a night out, I don't find my self using any more of the product than I would when I wear day makeup.
What I Do
1. I'll run a sink full of hot water and soak my muslin cloth in it before I start to apply any product.
2. I squirt 2 pumps on to the back of my hand and apply straight to my face. Don't wet the face, apply it over all your makeup! I use little circular motions.
3. Take a small amount and start on whichever part of the face suits. I start on my cheeks, then chin, then forehead, then my nose and last my eyes, you don't want to smear eye makeup over your face.
4. After I have worked it all rinse out the muslin cloth and using the same circular motions ill start on my cheeks , chin, forehead, nose and then eyes last again. I pay special attention to the areas around my nose, the corners of my mouth and under my eyes as I don't want to be rubbing under there!
5. After everything is off my face, Ill pat my face with cold water and pat dry with a towel.
Its so simple, yet so effective! I think the muslin cloths make all the difference too!

The next item is Liz Earle's Instant Boost Skin Tonic. As I have said in a previous post, I didn't really understand the point of a toner, but after I had a natter with my grandma, of all people, she enlightened me. So I started using this toner as part of my skincare routine.
Within 1 month I can already see the toner is doing its job. I have quite big pores near the apples of my cheeks and already I can see a massive difference in them, they have halved in size! I am amazed at the results. Its so refreshing and cool on your face, and doesn't leave your skin feeling tight or sticky or like you have a mask on. It sits on the skin so lightly.
All I do is soak a cotton wool pad in the toner, and then I swipe it across my face and neck, targeting the pore areas more, just making sire all the last bits of makeup are removed.
I'm sorry this isn't the best review of this product, but these are more my thoughts and what its done for my skin rather than a detailed and indebted review! :)
Thanks for reading!
