This is quite possibly my most favourite product of the entire range! At 46 years old I have normal to dry skin. I work in a corporate environment and wear makeup every day. I find this product very suitable for my skin type and lifestyle. It is nourishing and softening whilst effectively removing makeup and pollutants. I love the fact that it has a subtle scent and a little goes a long way. Definitely fantastic value in my opinion – so much so I have recommended it to all my friends that have commented on my skin!

Lovely cleanser. Spreads well and has a beautiful scent. I enjoy using it at the end of the day as part of my cleansing routine. There’s also the added advantage of knowing the ingredients are natural too.

This is the best cleanser I have ever used. I am so glad I found a natural cleanser that is slightly creamy but spreads nicely and has a subtle fragrance. This cleanser is very moisturising and my face feels great after I use it. I would highly recommend this product.
Shivani N (verified owner) –
Absolutely loved both the cleanser and the toner. My skin is very sensitive and I was struggling to find products that are natural and do not cause breakouts. Both these products have surpassed my expectation and my skin just feels great! Thank you 🙂
Paula Clee (verified owner) –
Beautiful cleanser! It has a lovely subtle scent which I love, it washes off easy and dosen’t leave a greasy feel just lovely and soft. Been using this for a month or so and definitely noticed a softening, smoothning of the smile lines around my eyes….visibly reduced,
I’m almost 50 so that’s an A+ from me!
I’ve used a lot of the natural products on the market as I won’t buy anything else and honestly this is by far the best combination of ingredients as they just work so well! On my second bottle and definitely purchasing again.
