Review of Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish

My Liz Earle nightmare!!!

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: gave me an allergic reaction

...I really wanted to love this. It sounds so wholesome and Liz is, indeed, beautiful. so i took myself to Browns in London and bought a travel pack. it was handy, because I was going on a short break to Europe, and it also gave me the chance of trying out the product. Here comes the horror story(those of you who are easily shocked can stop reading now): The first time I used it it felt itchy, but I out it down to...well, being the first time I used it (stupid, really). I carried on for a couple of days, always hoping for it to become the magic potion that everyone loves and praises and....tam-tam tam tam...... my face erupted in red, angry bump around the mouth and cheeks, which hurt when touched. serves me right for not stopping at the first signs of allergy. I am in my 50s and I have pretty good skin. I had to go to my GP to get...

Review of Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish

Liz Earle saved my skin from Eczema!

Advantages: Eczema gone! Soft, glowing skin, great shopping experience!
Disadvantages: a little expensive, but worth it for amazing skin!

...I have had terrible eczema on my body and face all my life. I have tried absolutely everything you can imagine, dermatologists, chinese doctors, every type of cream and product out there, with some success, but never success that lasted! That is until December 2006 my Aunt bought me a set of Liz Earle products for Christmas, including the famous cleanse and polish. She had seen it on QVC, and had been using it herself and thought it may help my skin. Now I believe Liz is an eczema sufferer herself so I'm sure that when developing her products she took this into account, and it really shows! The change in my skin is nothing short of a miracle! Straight away after the first use of the product I knew it would be different this time - no stinging or burning, no redness after use! My skin felt softer and more hydrated and already looked...

Review of Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish

Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish is without a doubt the best cleanser!

Advantages: removes all make-up, including eyes, leaves skin moisturised but not oily.
Disadvantages: none!!!

...to have slightly oily, spot prone skin, and this cleanser works brilliantly for me but my mum has very dry skin and it works equally well for her! Recently I decided, as I was a bit low on money, that I would try a different, cheaper brand of cleanser but soon regretted it! The beauty of Cleanse and Polish is that it removes all make-up, including eye make-up, and not many cleansers do that. I really hate the palava of having to use seperate eye make-up remover and face cleanser so this product really saves time and fuss. The muslin cloth is also briliant at gently exfoliating the skin and removing all the make-up and grime. I have also used a few of Liz Earle's other products and love them all, especially the Liz Earle Skin Repair Light, which I have also reviewed. I really cannot recommend it highly enough....

Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish - Fabulous for Sensitive Skin

Advantages: Gorgeous smell, soothing, moisturising and I now have Practically Normal Skin!
Disadvantages: Can't tell when the pump is running out

..."Why I started using" I have always been quite lucky with my skin except for it's sensitivity. For years I was even using E45 as a moisturiser as anything else just felt as if it aggravated my skin, making it "nippy" upon application. I tried Dermalogica products being assured that the products are free of common irritants - obviously my skin doesn't just react to the common irritants as I still found my skin prone to flare ups and aggravated by the products at times. In my desperation during a particular bad breakout of blotches and irritiated skin, I was looking through the Ciao reviews and found the glowing recommendations for the Liz Earle Skin Care regime. I decided to investigate further by visiting the Liz Earle Website; http://uk.lizearle.com/ The website was thankfully easy to navigate and provided detailed information...

Liz Earle's products are the best

Advantages: Products with only natural ingredients, great on the skin
Disadvantages: None, but can work out a little expensive for the full range

...I have been using Liz Earle's products for just over two years and purchase them through QVC- The Shopping Channel. You are always offered a very good deal, especially if the items are in the TSV (Today's Special Value), which Liz's are every 3 months approximately. The starting point for her products is the Cleanse and Polish. This creamy substance comes in a basic but attractive container which is sealed in such a way that only the amount you squeeze out is in contact with the air, meaning that every new squeeze is hygienic. Firstly squeeze out one pump of the Cleanse and Polish and wipe it over your face and neck. It is also OK to use this over the eye area and it will remove light eye make-up. Massage it gently into your face, and then rinse out one of the muslin cloths that come with the Cleanse and Polish in warm water. Then...

The Nation's Favourite Nan

Advantages: Interesting, entertaining, warm, endearing, honest
Disadvantages: Some sections are not as in-depth as you might wish

...I?ve been reading a lot of factual books lately, especially biographies and autobiographies. Amongst my ?to read? pile and alongside biographies on Marilyn Monroe, Diana Dors and Jean Harlow, there was the autobiography of actress Liz Smith ? a rather different kind of actress from the afore-mentioned blonde bombshells. Liz Smith is one of those actresses whose name you might not know, but you would definitely recognise her face. She was born in 1921 and will be 86 in December and is still working well. Her CV at IMDB.com has credits from over a hundred TV programmes and films. She has also done plenty of stage work too. She credits Mike Leigh with giving her the big break she wanted, as he cast her in his film Bleak Moments in 1971. By this time, she was fifty years old! The break had been a long time coming. Her most famous...

Review of Our Betty - Liz Smith

Liz Earle Hero Product!

Advantages: Really does the job!
Disadvantages: Bit difficult to get hold of.

...Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish cleanser is beautiful! it makes your skin feel silky soft and removes all traces of make-up, even stubborn mascara! After recently discovering the Liz Earle range i would never go back to my usual skincare routine. It has helped clear up numerous blemishes that i have had for ages and together with the Liz Earle toner & moisturier, my spot-prone oily skin is healthy & glowing! For those of you wondering whether or not to take the plunge and invest in some of these fantasic products, i would strongly recommend that you go for it! I wouldnt be without it! Only problem is that its quite difficult to get hold of, i have to get mine from the website as i dont live near any outlets. Although, the website is also fab! Really quick delivery & very easy to use, also the postage is very reasonable...

Liz Earl's Cleanse and Polish

Advantages: Easy to use, gentle, natural, and makes your skin feel amazing!
Disadvantages: None

...I first saw this product on QVC and when I first heard of cleanse and polish, I thought it sounded like an awful lot of hard work compared to cleanser and a couple of cotton pads. I was actually amazed at how quick and easy to use. You simply put some warm water in the sink with your muslin cloth, apply the cleanser to your face and massage in. The cloth takes all the make-up off your face whilst gently exfoliating. The first time I used the cleanser and swept it over my eyes, I was waiting for the stinging to start. However, because all the products in Liz Earl's range are made of natural ingredients, they are really gentle. After you have removed all of the cleanser with the muslin cloth and splashed your face with cold water, you use the toner. The toner has a wonderfully refreshing lavender scent and is fantastic...

Review of Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish

Totally won over by Liz Earle Products

Advantages: Removes every single trace of makeup
Disadvantages: not available in shops

...Liz Earle products were recommended to me by my sister and I ordered some not wanting to offend her! I have not used any other skin care products since! The Hot Cloth Cleanser is fantastic. It removes every single trace of makeup - even heavy or waterproof mascara. Your skin is left glowing. No - I am not on commission - but I am truly a fan of this wonderful product. The idea is that you smooth the cream over your face, gently over the eyes too (it NEVER stings) and then, take a mulsin cloth and dampen with hand hot water and wipe off the cream and all your makeup and grime with it! Simple and very refreshing. Then you follow on with toner and moisturiser (but more about those elsewhere when I have a moment!!) The packaging is clean and elegant and there are several sizes of product to buy. The product is very gentle...
