Aromatherapy Associates Rose Exfoliating Cleanser

Advantages: Bright, clear complexion. Soft skin. Feels like a pampering session each time!
Disadvantages: Quite costly

...as it exfoliates the skin as the cleanser is removed. I would definitely say that my skin is brighter and more healthy looking since using this product. I very much doubt that I could find a cleanser that is more effective. One thing I would say, the cleanser does have a very distinctive smell. Sort of herby is the way I would describe it. I don't find it unpleasant in any way but others might. Give it a go! What Space NK says about the product: An award winning modern cult classic, this is the starting point of the Eve Lom skincare regime. With a blend of four aromatherapy oils this solid cleanser melts on to the skin as it is massaged in to remove every trace of make up and city grime.
