Winners, Face Care (Rinse Off), 2025

Gold

Glana cosmetics, Prebiotic Enzyme Peeling Powder Exfoliant
“I was nervous that it was going to be messy to use, but with just a dash of water, it created a lovely little lather and was easy to apply. It was such a joy to use, gritty but in a really pleasant way — it didn’t feel like it was scratching my skin, and felt gentle yet effective. It’s so creamy with a perfect level of exfoliation — my skin feels smooth, comfortable, and fully cleansed. I found myself looking forward to using it each evening. A great product.”

hux+mū, SOW Prebiotic Cleansing Jelly
“Beautifully flowery ‘moreish’ fragrance. It delivered beautifully, much better than expected from a cleanser. It was almost as though it was made for me personally. It’s kind to the skin, removes dirt and make-up from the day, and leaves skin feeling like it’s ready to face the next day head on. My skin hasn’t been this soft for many, many years and it looks brighter and more refreshed than ever. It’s glowing!”

 

Silver

Blumáin Organic Skincare, Geranium & Orange Cleansing Oil
“A rich, cossetting cleansing oil which feels like a glorious treat when massaged into my skin at the end of the day. The high-end packaging, glorious rich golden oil and light spa-like scent elevate a pre-bedtime chore into a sensorial treat. It always removes my make up thoroughly and leaves my skin feeling velvety soft.”

Fiini Naturally, Balm to Milk Cleanser with Blackcurrant
“The unique texture, which turns into the most delightful milk, made me want to spend that little bit longer in the evening massaging my skin and relaxing. It left skin feeling comfortable and soft without any breakouts. Does a fabulous job of cleansing, removing make up and sunscreen without drying or upsetting skin’s balance.”

Healing Alternatives, Cleansing Milk
“Feels velvety and luxurious on the face. Doesn’t strip: there’s no tightness, itchiness, or redness – just clean, comfortable, and hydrated skin. I’ve not had a single pimple or spot in weeks, and minimal redness. It’s incredible to wake up to calm, happy skin. The improvements have been nothing short of spectacular.”

Skin Formulas, Oatfoliant
“I enjoyed using this from day 1. It easily lathered with water, thanks to the ultra-fine powder. Despite exfoliating, it didn’t leave my face irritated or over-exfoliated. It helped to smooth any areas of flaky skin and left face feeling clean and fresh. My face looked fresher and dry patches were greatly improved.”

 

Bronze

Arcade Skincare, Brightening Turmeric & Liquorice Facial Cleanser Bar
“Lovely citrusy aroma; incredibly refreshing. It has left my skin feeling radiant and soft, clean and refreshed, with a sense of being awake and revitalised. It’s become a staple in my evening routine, providing consistent results. It’s exactly what I was looking for, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with how well it works.”

Balmonds Skincare, Gentle Face Wash
“I am so happy with this. It has cleansed my skin so gently and supportively each day and over the month my skin has settled down so that it now looks clear and calm with no outbreaks and irritations, and even the redness is reduced. It has done this without stripping the skin, so it feels and looks lovely. It feels very kind.”

Dead Sea Dream, Purifying Mineral Mud Mask
“I love this amazing mask. Applies so easily. Skin doesn’t feel tight. My skin is so fresh feeling after use, with no unwanted after effects. I suffer with adult acne and this has helped my break outs no end. So easy to wash off. Has made a lasting impression on me. I have already bought another.”

Farmstead Naturals, Gentle Manuka Face Wash
“It is a pleasure to use, doesn’t tighten, with the stand out feature of making your skin feel so soft during and after cleansing. Effectively removes all make-up and impurities without over-drying or irritation. My face felt smoother towards the end of the testing which was great. It just feels so gentle and kind to the skin.”

Inika Organic, Phytofuse Renew Cream Cleanser
“Wow — love at first brush! This cream cleanser was a joy from my first use — the cleanser, via the butter-soft silicone brush, just glides onto the facial area with ease and is so comforting to use and became an essential part of my am/pm routine! The aroma is divine: a soft citrusy rose scent, and it left skin feeling soft, smooth and perfectly cleansed once washed off. Very impressed.”

Lisana Organics, Clarifying Face Polish
“I loved using this. It was the perfect exfoliator, relaxing and not too coarse. It left my skin with an oily sheen which I loved as I dislike products that dry skin out. It smelt gorgeous and my skin is fresh and clear. It was the perfect combination of exfoliating whilst providing moisture.”

Nana Kat’s Apothecary, Beira’s Charm – Oil to Milk Cleanser
“My skin is dry and can be sensitive in places but even after first use I had confidence that this was gentle, effective and non-drying. Effective in clearing skin of daily grime and also removing eye make-up — mascara, eyeshadow and eyeliner. Leaves my skin beautifully soft and clean.”
