I love
trying out new products and freebies that sometimes come with magazines are a
perfect way to do so.
My mum was
in London last month and brought back some of the magazines for me. In April's
edition of Glamour UK was a 50 ml tester of the Pure Skin Face Wash from
BalanceMe. I got a tester from the same brand last summer and loved it, so I
was super excited that I got to try out another one.
The
cleanser is intended for normal/combination skin and should help to calm
congestion and prevent breakouts. On the brand's website they claim that the
product is 99% natural, while the tester says 98,8%, but either way, that seems
quite impressive and intriguing to me!
The product
is very easy to use; I take a pea sized amount of product and massage it into
the skin. You immediately see the makeup dissolving. I wet my hands slightly to
further emulsify the product and then wash it off with the help of a warm, wet
cloth.
After use,
the skin feels and looks visibly clean, but still seems moisturized.
The
cleanser manages to remove all the makeup without stripping the skin of its
moisture. It's only when I use a really strong waterproof mascara (like
Maybelline's Waterproof Rocket) I can still see a little bit of it left on my
lashes after cleansing. I don't really mind that, because I tend to use a bit
of Bioderma after cleansing anyways, and that steps removes any traces of
makeup still left on the face.
I love how
the cleanser feels on the skin and the effects it leaves on my face. The scent
of the product is pleasant, slightly herby, which makes the cleansing a lovely,
relaxing experience.
I've been
using this for a few weeks and my face looks clean and radiant. Unlike the
Cleanse and Smooth Face Balm I've tried last year, this one doesn't leave an
oily film on my skin after cleansing.
Given how
much I love it, I might just have to buy the full size after I run out of the
tester ( but I think I am good for a while, because you really don't need a lot
of the product and I haven't even used a half of the tester yet).
If you are
interested in this product, you can find it on the BalanceMe website for £16/125
ml.
Thanks for
reading and see you in my next post!
