simple cleanser
Review of Simple Fast Action Cleansing Lotion by
sunshineduck
Advantages: its simple -nothing in it that you dont need, never irritates, cheap
Disadvantages: not as good a cleanser as some, more moisturiser than cleanser
i use simple products as skin conditions seem to run in our family. simple are the only products that never irritate my skin, so i tend to stick with them.
this cleanser is a bit odd, as its more of a moisturiser than a cleanser. you apply it with cotton wool and arent supposed to rinse it off, but i do anyway. it is very moisturising, and it does my skin good. the bonus is that i never need to buy as much nivea!
simple products are always pretty ...

Gentle cleansing to test
Review of Weleda Iris Cleansing Lotion by
tebu
Advantages: Chemical-free, big capacity, eco-label : organic & not tested on animals
Disadvantages: Heavy bottle not practical at all
...an eco-label : BDIH. Weleda doesn't test on animals. The brand is known to use essential oils, organic plant extracts and natural bases. Godd arguments.
***The product***
In a pink box, you'll find a glass bottle quite heavy and not practical at all.
The smell reminds me of lavander and alcohol too. The cream is fluid ans fresh as you gently apply it to your face. Not easy to measure out but easy to take off with cotton pads or water.
It moisturises ... ...the night. Weleda says all type of skin can use it (i'm not sure for greasy skin). It removes make-up easily and smoothly.
I should not use it on eyes but it's not unenviable and it works on waterproof mascara. *
Ingredients : Water (Aqua), Jojoba (Buxus chinensis) Oil, Alcohol, Glycerin, Witch Hazel (Hamamelis virginiana) Distillate, Fragrance: natural essential oils (Iris Resinoid, Bergamot (Bergaptin-free), Geranium, Grapefuit, Lavender, Lemon, ...

Clinique- good for sensitive skin
Review of Clinique Mild Clarifying Lotion by
mum2boys82
Advantages: Only cleaning routine that works for me
Disadvantages: Very expensive to buy all 3 products at once
...2 of the 3 step clinique system. As I have really sensitive skin I have to use the mild clarifying lotion instead of the normal lotions which are numbered 1, 2 and 3.
I have tried many different clensing products over the last 5 years and this one is the best for my skin. The other products I have tried have given me an allergic reaction, such as itchiness and my face swelling up so I was worried about trying this due to the inital expense, but ... ...she had similar problems.
Clinique do claim that no one can be allergic to their products because of their strict testing,but I do know some people who have found the products to dry out their skin. I do ocassionally get dry skin, but I only cleanse once a day instead of the recommended twice and use a free extra moisturising gel for 2/3 days and it fully hydrates the skin again.
I always try to buy my clinque products when they are on offer in ...

Didn't realise my skin was so dirty!
Review of Clinique 3-Step Skincare System Step 2 (Exfoliate) Lotion 3 by
clarebarker
Advantages: keeps oily skin under control without drying
Disadvantages: size of bottles not good for travelling
I've been using this product for 5 months now, and it's still having the same effect as when I started using it.
I'm particularly prone to spots and blackheads, and have oily skin, which can seem dull, but this product manages the greasiness, and when I do have a breakout of spots deals with them quickly.
More importantly though, it does not dry the skin, or cause any irriation as other clensers for oily skin can. I also like the fact that you ... ...wool after use, it's dirty, so clearly getting rid of something!
Found another use for it on holiday as well, works well to sooth irritation from insect bites! Only used it in desperation as didn't have anything else to use, but it worked very well.
Main disadvantage is the size of the bottles it comes in, great for value for money, but a smaller travel size bottle would be handy for taking away. ...

A sad disapointment
Review of Clinique Clarifying Lotion by
Cristinad
Advantages: Perfect in the begining - terrifying after two weeks of use.
Disadvantages: It turn my skin into a mess.
...3-step skin care system from Clinique kept my attention: it was simple, clean design, nice brand, expensive (dont like this one..).
Well, as usual I bought my first one from the online Hong-Kong based shop (much cheaper...) Sasa. Strawberry.net is an option, too.
In my regular skin care, toner is one of my favourite products. I cant really pass from clean to cream without feeling bad with myself. Toner takes off the rest of cleaning products, the ... ...skin. Toner: a must.
Clinique says that this is not a toner: its an exfoliate lotion. Whatever. It was my first tought, but after I uset it, I really felt the difference between these little miracle and all the toners I've been using until now.
It cleans! When I rub the cotton in my face with a tiny-tiny amount of lotion I felt a freshness and a clean sensation that I've never experienced with another toner. And the cotton came a little darker ...
