I’m officially a Sephora Collection fan, and now I have a new favorite cleanser. The Sephora Collection’s Clean Skin Cleansing Balm. It is my favorite step one cleanser I have tried, whether it be an oil or cleansing balm. This product somehow removes every bit of makeup, pollution, and sunscreen on your face. It works fast, you do not need a lot, and it doesn’t leave a greasy mess on your face. Most balms leave a layer of slime or need to be rubbed off with a washcloth. This simply vanishes with a few splashes of water. It is hydrating and seems gentle enough for all skin types.
with great finds. First up, Thayers PH Balancing Daily Cleanser with Aloe Vera. This face wash is super affordable and super effective. It removes dirt and makeup while remaining gentle on the skin. It gives a deep clean without leaving skin feeling striped.
My recent go to lip gloss has been Tarte’s Maracuja Juicy Plumping Lip Oil . It is a great topper or wears well alone. Not sticky and gives lips a nice bounce.
I’m getting everything off with Bobbi Brown’s Soothing Cleansing Oil. This oil feels like silk. I use it as step one in my double cleanse routine.
Zero is a cleansing balm you need to try. It completely removes all your makeup and leaves skin soft and ready for next steps. There are many different types depending on your personal skincare needs like dry skin, oily skin, sensitive skin etc. It comes with a spatula to scoop the product out of the tub. Massage it on your face and the balm turns to an oil. Add water to emulsify the oil and rinse. Easy Peasy Clean!
finds this month all smell great. I have to new body washes I’m currently using. First is Cosmedix’s Body Clean. It has a beautiful cucumber smell, and the gel lathers well. It has Niacinamide and Galactoarabian to moisturizes skin and helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
I am also using Tree Hut’s Watermelon Foaming Gel Wash. Great smell, great lather, you’re left with a clean fresh feeling.
The two amazing smelling moisturizers I’ve been using post shower are Dionne’s Goat Milk Body Lotion in Lavender Blossom and Celia’s Creme Rose Body Lotion. Both are lightweight and fast absorbing.
Breathe in and look great….
Clinique’s All About Clean Rinse Off Foaming Cleanser. This cleanser means business. There is no need to double cleanse here. It removes all traces of makeup, sunscreen and dirt. You only need a little to get a major amount of foam. Skin feels fresh and not stripped. I think this would be great for acne prone skin. I love how fast it foams and easily it rinses off.
I love Pur’s Forever Clean Gentle Cleanser. I love that it is both a gentle cleanser and a serious get the job done cleanser. It foams really well. It removes makeup and sunblock yet remains gentle to the skin’s barrier. I feel it removed excess oil but not that stripped, dried out skin feeling. I think the added plant extracts and aloe help with the soothing feeling it gives. It is designed to help uneven skin tone and the appearance of pores. It has an ingredient I am not familiar with but excited to see,- Butterfly Bush Extract. This extract is said to help protect skin from blue light.
I love Nudebody’s Exfoliating Butter Body Wash. This stuff really foams, and yet it is clean. Most clean cleansers get a minimal lather, but not this one. The packaging is simple yet chic and looks great on my shower shelf. You do not need to use a loofah with it, but you can. It uses salt, salicylic acid, papaya enzymes and glycolic acid, to exfoliate and citrus butter to hydrate. I like a chemical exfoliation in the shower since I find a lot of scrubs use a material that is too weak or too strong. My skin feels soft and clean after use. It is scented but I found the scent to be light, and doesn’t stay on the skin. I think all skin types would like this product, and the packaging is somewhat gender neutral.
Orpheus’s Resurrection Serum Slip Cleanser. It’s the perfect cleanser whether you want a deep clean or a gentle touch. To start with my favorite thing about this cleanser is that it can become a flash mask. Simply create a lather with a few pumps and leave it on for five minutes. You will immediately notice a deeper exfoliation. When used just as a cleanser it removes dirt and makeup. I would double cleanse or use an eye makeup remover when wearing a heavier beat. This cleanser uses amino acids to to exfoliate while a the gentle micro foam conditions and brightens. The ingredient highlights are not things you see in an everyday cleanser like, Orpheus Flower Cell Peptide Complex, Lime Pearl Extract, and a Bioactive mineral Complex. It is safe for sensitive skin and uses no fragrances, toxins, or parabens.
