Just an update on my quest for the right cleansing balm.
These are the ones I've tried:
1. Eve Lom
best balm (but hate the petrochemicals)
2. Amanda Lacey
love the smell. Texture bit oily rather than 'balmy', also constant breakouts.Never experienced anything like it before! Don't know if that was 'purging', but it lasted 6 weeks, same as the pot. Pot didn't last that long, given cost. Might try again if I ever ditch the non natural products in my routine (my PTR glycolic stuff) in case it's using these together that was the problem.
3. Organic Pharmacy Carrot
Early days, 1-2 weeks. Nice texture. Takes make up off really well. No breakouts. Not sure if it's causing any congestion - as it felt the first few times like there is a residue, I've been making sure to do extra hot rinsing at the end.
These are other ones I've looked at:
Neil's Yard Rose - too rich for me
Spiezia - v interested in this one and looking forward to trying it. Anyone else interested, if you click through from beautybible.com to soorganic, you can get a 10ml test size for around £8.
Burts Bees - smells nice, but texture too oily and tube getting all creasy would annoy me
Liz Earle - just can't bring myself to use something I did many years ago when I was at university
Vaishaly - interesting. expensive (mainly due to large size). need to get up to Paddington to buy test sizes from her salon.
Trish McEvoy - big tube. glycerine based. looked a bit 'gunky'? bad review on makeupalley.
If anyone tries any of these, please let me know how it went!
Thanks.
