Just wondering if anyone had tried any products from the Kosmea Australia line? I've seen their products in Healthy Life and other health food stores but am yet to sample any of them. I had a play with the Purifying Cream Cleanser, Refining Rose Hip Scrub and Eighth Natural Wonder Serum (which all felt nice and they seem to have good ingredients) but I'm scared of trying new things in case they break me out or irritate me so I left without buying any of them!
Purifying Cream Cleanser: (Key Ingredients only) Organic rose hip oil, sesame oil, safflower oil, witch hazel extract, jojoba oil, avocado oil, Vitamin E, calendula oil, rosewood oil, grapefruit seed extract, rose flower water, St.Johns Wort, olive fruit oil, soybean oil, carrot oil.

| If anyone is interested, their website is: www.kosmea.com. Their products are supposed to be all natural, with no mineral oils, no artifical colours, no petrochemicals, no artifical fragrances, no sodium lauryl sulphate and no animal derived ingredients (except beeswax in the lip balm). |

I love their Moisturising Lotion SPF30+! Fantastic moisturiser with higher SPF - great additional ingredients as well. I didn't really care for their scrub (it was kinda rubbery from what I remember) or their cleanser either I don't think. I have tried the serum (tester) and it feels *really* nice but somehow I feel that the $60 for it is a bit much. I might cave one day - I still go try it everytime I walk past a healthfood shop that stocks Kosmea 
Btw, Kosmea is great with samples and if you email them and ask nicely for a sample pack they will send you one. Samples are quite small (standard little pouches of product) but you get enough for a couple of uses. Also, they make good travel sized packs if you still can't make up your mind. |
