What was your first impression of the Product?
I liked the bottle and was grateful that it had a small hole in the lid so that I wouldn’t accidentally spill and waste it.
What was your experience using the product?
After squirting a small amount onto a cleansing cloth I was amazed at how easily it removed my eye makeup and left the whole eye area feeling really refreshed. Having said that, I was very surprised an hour later when I was quite tired and my eyes began to water when I yawned. I dabbed my eyes and found quite a bit of residue mascara on the tissue which I thought had been removed.
What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
It’s not oily and I didn’t need to use very much to get a good result
Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
I would because the packaging is not too large & doesn’t take up too much room on the bathroom bench, and the product is of great quality.

Rescue Your Skin This Winter
With the dreaded cold winter days comes winter skin. While winter has it’s many desirable attributes it also brings with it certain challenges for your skin. Not only is the temperature considerably lower during the day, we are in and out of artificially heated environments. All this causes trauma to the skin causing the natural lipids on the surface of the skin to diminish and leave the skin vulnerable.
Skin exposed to the colder climate are prone to be dry, flaky, red and lacking in much needed moisture. If left untreated it can lead to eczema and dermatitis. This is a particular time when you need to pay extra attention to your skin and nourish and pamper it. There are some wonderful products that will help you not only to protect your skin during the cold winter months but also repair and feed the skin.
While using heavier moisturisers in winter definitely helps the problem, there are a few more steps you can take to maintain your skin and avoid ’Winter Skin’. Use a gentle, moisturising cleanser, exfoliate regularly to get rid if the dead skin calls and allow the moisturiser to penetrate the skin and use moisturising masks at least once a week.
While all this might sound like a bit of an effort, it is certainly worth it in the pursuit of healthy glowing skin! (Please Click on the Name of the Product for more Information)
