B. Kamins Botanical Face Cleanser

Advantages: Removes eye make-up with very little effort.
Disadvantages: The bottle opening could be improved for easier application.

...I originally bought Boots Botanics Soothing Eye Make-Up Cleanser because I was given a free Boots voucher to spend (one of those that has to be redeemed on one of a few selected brands). Since I stopped using cleansers that removed all of my eye make-up, I had been going through eye make-up remover quite quickly. I therefore thought that it would make sense to spend my voucher on a new one. I had heard good things about this and another Boots branded eye make-up remover. In the end, I decided to try this one because it looked so pretty! Boots Botanics Soothing Eye Make-Up Cleanser comes in a plastic bottle (cylinder shaped) which is 15cm high and around 4cm wide. The silver lid (and opening) is around 1 1/2 - 2cm across. The bottle is clear, which is great as it is easy to see how much product is left inside, and also handy as before... Read review

Advantages: Makes you feel gorgeous, fresh and clean
Disadvantages: Could it be.....none?

...I discovered Botanics face wash! (Sorry to sound like a bad 50s advert, but it had to be said.) I knew I was on to something when I first took off the lid. Far from smelling off-putting, it actually smelt NICE. My suspicions were confirmed when that night my boyfriend asked me if I'd bought a new perfume. Result! Because of this, I actually started cleansing day and night like a good city girl should. And sure enough, my spots began to disappear, along with the dry patches my recent experimentation had caused. In short, the face wash was working. I know people will say that other cleansers will do the job they claim to do- remove dirt. And that's fine. But Botanics is the one for me because not only does it do what it says on the tin, it does so with POSITIVE side effects. What more can I ask for.... Read review

Advantages: leaves skin soft
Disadvantages: the pump keeps sticking!

...I love shopping in Boots- it's all the lovely stuff they sell, I can't help myself - and I often get free £5 skincare vouchers which can be spent on one of the Boots ranges. A few months ago I got one of the aforementioned vouchers for the Boots Botanics range, so I decided to treat myself to their face wash mousse. This was the first Botanics product I had used, and also the first cleansing mousse, as I usually use either a plain face wash or a cream cleanser, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. WHAT THEY CLAIM If the label is anything to go by, then this mousse should 'deeply cleanse the skin to eliminate impurities, excess oil, and dead skin cells.' And also as it contains rosemary and willowbark extracts, it should 'help clear and prevent blemishes whilst promoting a brighter, smoother complexion.' Hmmm… sounds good... Read review
