bought the almond moisturizer, witch hazel toner and the rose moisturizer at the neal's yard shop in portobello; the toner contains way too much alcohol and i can't use it since it smells like vodka
the moisturizers are ok but they didn't do anything to my skin..like most "natural" skincare (except for dr h which i do see results), this line is just ok and i probably wouldn't repurchase |

hey..
witch hazel toner: water, witch hazel extract & alcohol
almond moisturizer: water (aqua), cetearyl alcohol, almond oil (prunus dulcis)*+, sucrose stearate, jojoba oil (buxus chinensis)*, glycerin, evening primrose oil (oenothera biennis)*, coconut oil (cocos nucifera)*, beeswax (cera alba)*, sunflower oil (helianthus annuus)*, calendula extract (calendula officinalis)*, chamomile extract (chamomilla recutita)*, lavender extract (lavandula angustifolia)*, geranium oil (pelargonium graveolens)*, lemon oil (citrus limonum)*, denatured alcohol*, lecithin, phenoxyethanol, tocopherol
rose & mallow moisturizer: Water, cetyl stearyl alcohol, sweet almond oil, polysorbate 60, sorbitan stearate, french rose floral water, corn oil, jojoba oil organic, wheatgerm oil, vegetable glycerine, beeswax, benzyl alcohol, marshmallow tincture, lanolin, vitamin e acetate, lemon essential oil, ylang ylang, cedarwood essential oil, rose absolute, aloe vera
one thing that is very strange, the almond moisturizer is supposed to be rich and the rose/mallow moisturizer is supposed to be light; but they turn out to be the opposite (almond is very light and rose/mallow is quite thick & rich)
i remember when i tested the almond cream in the shop, it was thicker in texture and definitely wasn't as light as what i've got..but i didn't open the cream until i left london so i couldn't have brought them back

My Mother in Law suffers from dry, sensitive skin and once winter comes she swears by Neals Yard Frankensence Night Cream.
I prefer the bodycare to the skincare. |
