EVE LOM CLEANSER (REVIEW)

After a somewhat shaky beauty start to the world of EVE LOM,
 this past week I have been trying out their iconic award winning cream cleanser 
and my opinions have changed considerably.

The EVE LOM Cleanser claims to have changed the face of cleansing with this
Multi Tasking product. 
Its been carefully formulated for all skin types it deep cleanses without
 drying or stripping 
the skin and removes even the most stubborn of waterproof make-up. 
Thorough cleansing and gentle exfoliation enables skin cells to regenerate quickly and 
provides a base for beauty products to work at their best. 
It decongests,exfoliates, tones and improves circulation when combined 
with the Muslin Cloth. 
Softens and conditions the skin whilst leaving it glowing,
radiant skin with a smoother, more refined texture.


It was surprising how many cleanses I managed to do with the contents of the
 5ml sample that I received, which by the way also contained a muslin cloth.

The texture of this cleanser is a heavy dense balm and a little is all
you need to perform a good cleanse.
Warm a small amount in the palms of your hands and then apply to a dry skin 
and massage over the face, eyes, lips and neck area
(concentrating on where the make-up is heaviest)
and as you work with the product it becomes more emollient and melts
 the make-up easily.This can be used in the morning, but its
best to use in the evening to cleanse away all traces of make-up along with
 the dirt and grime of the day.
You're also aware of the exfoliating granules when massaging, 
but it's nothing too harsh.


The following active ingredients work together to dissolve even the heaviest
of make-up.
Clove Oil (has antiseptic properties to encourage clear skin),
Eucalyptus Oil (helps drain away toxins), Hops Oil (tones),
Egyptian Chamomile Oil (softens and soothes),
Cocoa Butter (conditions)

Once you've spent a couple of minutes working the product into the skin
you then take the rinsed muslin cloth that has been soaked in warm water 
and remove the cleanser.
(It's preferable to remove any eye make-up and mascara last)

It's also best to fold the cloth into quarters, so you use the cloths surface area to its max.
The warm water helps to release the essential oils and I'm happy to say
the fragrance of this EVE LOM Cleanser is very pleasant 
(unlike the recent Radiance Transforming Mask sample I tried)

My skin felt super clean, radiant, smooth and not stripped of natural oils,
 which so many cleansers can do.
I enjoyed using the textured muslin cloth, as it not only helps with the product removal process, but it also stimulates and exfoliates the skin.
In my opinion the cleanser and cloth combo is what makes this product so effective.

The product comes packaged with the Muslin cloths and you receive one 
with the 100ml and two with the 200ml size and they can also be bought
separately in packs of 3.
(These cloths do need to be washed daily, as they do get dirty and stained
 especially with mascara)

I've never been a fan of cleansing balms, as I personally have always preferred 
(as you know) a cleansing milk/cream type of product, but the Eve Lom claims to be the
"Original Cleansing Balm" 
as it's been around for over 30 years and I'm happy to announce that this has
 been the one to convert me into a "believer".
Every claim that they make above, about this product, is 100% accurate
 and I wasn't left feeling short changed on promises.

After the disappointment with the mask I was sceptical about all the hype and
praise that this brand had been given by beauty editors and gurus around the world,
 but how wrong I was, as I absolutely loved this cleanser.
I would actually go as far to say that its the "Best" Cleanser I've ever used and after
being in this business for over 35 years that's a BIG claim.

There is no denying that this cleanser is on the high end where prices are
 concerned, but if your budget stretches then don't overlook this product
especially if you do wear heavy make-up daily.


I have inserted a short video that will show you the easy application 
and removal process
