ANNWYN Botanicals, Exfoliating Cleanser with Papaya, Soft Citrus & Herb
“Pleasant, delicately herbal fragrance … skin felt beautifully clean but not ‘stripped’ … the little crushed cupuaçu tree seeds were ideal, not too rough, but effective at buffing . .. skin is most certainly softer and brighter and I’m noticing fewer hormonal spots … Loved everything about it”
“Really liked it from the word go … nicely exfoliating without being too rough; the exfoliating beads just seem to melt away … Doesn’t strip the skin … The way my face actually feels rather than looks is more important to me as having irritated skin is unpleasant, but this was soothing and a pleasure to use”
“Fresh, earthy fragrance … felt pleasant on the skin … Rinsed off easily … Good texture, ‘stuck’ to the skin well and smoothed on easily … Skin felt nourished and cleansed, soft and moisturised after — I needed less moisturiser … Exfoliating component was perfect, not scratchy, fine to get into pores and crevices … Skin very clean at the end of the month … Pores more refined … Lasts and lasts … This was great”

Frances Prescott, Tri-Balm
“I absolutely fell in love with this product … heavenly to use … heady fragrance is divine … melted away all traces of make-up … My face felt awakened, fresh, clean and hydrated; this did not leave my skin feeling tight or stripped of moisture”
“Didn’t think it was possible to make a balm cleanser in a stick form, but here it is … this must be my all-time favourite texture … cleansing is so easy, with no runniness, no melting in the pot … I wear waterproof lip and eyeliner and this took it all off with no difficulty … Loved the way it left my skin feeling … I think I’ve found my desert-island product”
Kinvara Skincare, Absolute Cleansing Oil
“Removed all of my mineral make-up in just a few swipes without leaving traces … left my skin feeling cleansed but not stripped; felt soft and nourished and there was no oily residue … My skin tone was more even and the rosacea redness on my cheeks reduced and continued to reduce over the month”
“Gorgeous thick, silky texture … Took off make-up effortlessly … From the first use I loved it, and never got bored of it … each time it left face so soft and balanced — no more spot-prone areas with dry patches to follow as might get with a gel/foam wash … This is the perfect skin balancer, I am so happy with the results and I will be religiously using it from now on”
Mauli Rituals, Supreme Skin Cleansing Oil
“Dissolved make-up away very easily, without tugging on sensitive skin … Skin felt perfectly clean, nourished, soft and calmer … Improved the condition of my skin and turned my cleansing routine into a joy with an uplifting scent of jasmine, sandalwood and neem”
“Everything about this cleansing oil is beautiful … effective on foundation, concealer and mascara … its clarifying ingredients left my skin feeling deeply cleansed and ready for other products to be applied … the process of using and massaging the oil daily helped improve circulation … it delivered”
Silk and Pearls Natural Luxury Skincare, Silkyway Oil to Milk Deep Cleanser & Moisturiser
“Was effective on all make-up products … At the end of the month, my skin felt plump and nourished, and comfortable before bed … Made my skin feel soft and supple, and my pores felt like they were being gently cleaned at the end of each day”
“Right from the start it made my skin feel clean … It took about a week to take out the dry patches at the top of my cheeks and leave my skin moisturised; skin never felt dry or flaky after use … Now, my skin feels healthy, soft and clean … Long-term deep-seated acne has been banished; was sceptical that an oily product on spotty skin would work but it’s amazing … Excellent results speak for themselves”
Skin Alchemists, Humble Warrior complete cleansing oil
“Takes every scrap of make-up off on the first attempt without irritation and leaves eye area really hydrated … my skin is not only clean and moisturised, it’s always bright after using this cleanser; there is a real clarity and improvement to tone whether you’ve used it at night or in the morning … My skin is much less irritated, with less redness … I love this and it absolutely delivers”
“It’s such a beautiful oil that I spent time massaging it in in the evening, which I feel really benefited my skin … Skin feels smoother and more radiant … Works really well and is a gorgeous treat to use at the end of the day”

Botanica Nordica, Gel-to-Milk Cleanser

Codex Beauty, Bia Wash Off Cleansing Oil
“Perfect light consistency, gorgeous earthy scent — blackcurrants and calming plant oils … did an excellent job of removing all make-up and sunscreen … skin felt calm, nourished and never stripped, dry nor tight … I experienced fewer breakouts … definitely delivered and I will happily buy this again”
D’alchèmy, Purifying Facial Cleanser
“Pleasant citrus fragrance, gentle not astringent, lovely … Did a brilliant job of cleansing my skin without stripping it bare of its natural barrier … My skin started to look better and clearer over a month … The texture of my skin changed for the better and began to look smoother and settled … A lovely cleanser”

“Consistency is just right, texture is rich and creamy … was really impressed with how effectively this product removed make-up, as it is so gentle … Left my skin feeling so clean, hydrated and soft … Other such cleansers often break me out, but this one didn’t … I’ve not had one spot and my skin looks crystal clear”
VERACOVA, Gentle Scrubbing Gel – Pure Radiance
“I thought it was too gentle at first, but realised it was actually just right in terms of exfoliation as time went on … Rinses off so very easily … It worked well with my creams and oils, and my skin improved steadily during the testing … I had a more fresh and ‘alive’ looking skin tone … I really valued this product”
