Lovely wash for sensitive skin

Advantages: Lovely texture and fragrance; quick to use
Disadvantages: I prefer a separate eye makeup remover

...I am always on the lookout for products that don't irritate my sensitive skin, yet I don't want to miss out on the luxury skincare experience! In this respect I have enjoyed using several Elemis products. I was a little wary at first as using water on my skin can lead to dryness and that itchy tight feeling and some facial washes can feel harsh, however I found this product very soothing and a pleaure to use. The product comes in a pump dispenser which is very convenient to use. Just a couple of pumps added to a little warm water in the palm of your hand and you are left with a lovely light creamy lather. It smells very pleasant and not at all overpowering. I would say a man or a woman could use this product as the packaging and fragrance are not overtly feminine. It is also great to use as your facial cleanser while in the shower...

Sticky Situation For Sensitive Skin

Advantages: Protects for 24H, great for sensitive skin and leaves armpits feeling soft.
Disadvantages: Goes on sticky.

...Lately, due to an itchy skin problem caused by an allergy to limonene and linalool chemicals contained in just about everything that possesses a citrus scent, I have been clearing out my cupboards of all ?contaminated? items and have come to the conclusion that I can either rejoice at the space that?s been gained? or shed tears at the knowledge that I will have to replace everything I?ve been chucking out! My step-daughter will be chuffed, to say the least, when she inherits the latest in cosmetics, shampoos, conditioners, face and body creams/lotions, body scrubs, hand creams, shower gels and bubble bath, and the list goes on. My latest acquisition, Sanex Dermo Sensitive Anti-Perspirant, has taken the place usually reserved for my beloved Sure... a place that is shaky at best because I?m not actually impressed. Fist things...

SENSITIVE SKIN WILL LOVE THESE

Advantages: A pack of 20 costs only £1
Disadvantages: Can't think of any

...Facial cleansing wipes are what I always use to remove my make up. However, they can be quite expensive unless the manufacturers are running a buy one get one free offer, so when I saw these in Matalan for £1.00; I just had to buy a few packets to try them. I always tend to switch between brands of cleansing wipes depending on what's on special offer when I'm looking to buy them, but I always have to buy ones that are suitable for sensitive skin otherwise my face takes on a rather red blotchy hue - not very attractive! With these wipes being so competitively priced, I think my days of searching out the best buy could well be over. Right let's go to review mode - ************ THE PACKAGING This is approximately 175mm x 115mm, made of plastic in a pale green colour with a peel back resealable opening. The information...

Review of Sunshop Facial Cleansing Wipes Sensitive Skin

Good for sensitive skin.

Advantages: Easy clean. Close shave. Use in shower. Good battery life. Built-in Nivea dispenser
Disadvantages: Doesn't catch all stubble straight away

...I have fairly sensitive skin and up until now I have always used a wet shave razor. Wet razors didn't leave my skin burning, but they did leave the skin feeling very exposed and would cause it to dry out. Since I'd read that electric razors were good in countering this, I decided to give one a go: I went for this one because it was half price in Boots at the time and because I trust the Philips brand. I also liked that it was very easy to clean: you just have to run it under a tap, whereas other razors are a bit more tricky. It also looks quite sporty and can be used in the shower as it's completely waterproof. The first use was brilliant. It was clean and so much closer than I imagined it would be. It almost felt closer than a wet shave. Subsequent shaves have slowed down a bit and I find that I have to keep going over the same areas...

Review of Philips HS 8060 Moisturizing /COOL SKIN

For the sensitive!

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...I have sensitive dry skin so have to be very careful about what products I use. When it comes to cleansing my face I really like to use water as I feel I have actually washed, unlike when I use cleansing creams! I have tried several products that claim to be for sensitive skins over the years but have found many of these leave my skin feeling dry and tight at best and sometimes I have been left with a red irritated skin. I was given a bottle of Elemis sensitive cleansing wash by a close friend who also has sensitive skin and finds this perfect for her skin. Elemis sensitive cleansing wash is not cheap. It retails for around £18 for a 200 ml bottle, although it is worth shopping around as prices vary. It is available from many beauty salons or from John Lewis. So is it worth the cost? Elemis sensitive cleansing skin wash comes in...

Review of Elemis Sensitive Cleansing Wash

For sensitive skin it is very good

Advantages: see text
Disadvantages: see text

...For anyone with sensitive skin then I recommend them any E45 product. I use the E45 Moisturising lotion on my hands and arms when I get mild excema. This product is excellent for first of all stop it from itching. It’s excellent at absorbing into the skin, and it doesn’t leave your skin feeling greasy and clammy. You can buy E45 Moisturising cream from any supermarket or chemist and with anyone who has easily sensitive skin then this is a very good product. I buy a bottle or about £3.99 and it will last me a month or so. I have heard that you can get an allergic reaction from this product so as with any product read the label before you use the product But also test a small area of your skin first before applying to in large amount. When you do apply, spread the lotion evenly and rub it into your skin...

Review of E45 Moisturising Lotion- Dry & Sensitive Skin

sensitive my arse

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: made my legs very sore

...No witty intro for this op I?m afraid, as I?m not feeling too well or that good-natured towards the product there isn?t a funny thing I can think of to say about them...so I?ll march onwards with the review... *** Packaging *** The razors come in an orange and green packet with ?BIC? written in black on the front and ?Sensitive? written in white underneath. The razors themselves are also orange plastic with a white head. The packet contains info in many languages: French, English, Swedish, Spanish, Portuguese, German and Dutch. The vital info that they repeat so many times is: - Designed specially for sensitive skin - Each razor provides an optimal and comfortable shave for approximately one week. - Easy Cleaning Blade. It also tells the nearest Bic headquarters for each country; in the UK, BIC UK Limited - Middx UB9...

Review of BIC Sensitive Skin Razor

SENSITIVE SATIN SHAVING

Advantages: WORKS REALLY WELL
Disadvantages: BIT PRICEY

...I have quite sensitive skin and when it comes to shaving I ususally end up cutting myself, coming up in a rash or getting extremely dry skin. I've now found a superb shaving creme which helps tackle all those problems PLUS others! I'd always used cheap shaving creams, gels and mousses until I saw this new product by Gilette. It was a bit on the pricey side but sometimes it's just not worth worrying about when it comes to quality versus price. The bottle looked good, I'd seen advertisements on the product and it seemed perfect for me so I bought it. The gel is called 'SATIN CARE' by Gilette for women. It is specifically designed for sensitive skin and it contains aloe and vitamin E. It also contains silk extracts. The bottle specially says it is a shaving gel although once rubbed in the gel does form a brilliant, fluffy mousse...

Review of Gillette Shaving Gel Sensitive Skin

A Sensational Sensitive Shave

Advantages: fairly cheap, kind to sensitive skin
Disadvantages: there are only five in a packet

...I used to be a die-hard fan of a very well known razor, but the only disadvantage was, was that I had to keep replacing the blades, as the durability was very poor. The blades were expensive also they were £5.50 for four, so as a lowly student at the time I had to find a disposable razor that was cheap, kind to my sensitive skin and that the razor and blade itself were very durable. So, when I was out shopping I came across these disposable razors by Wilkinson Sword that was two blades, sensitive and enriched with vitamin e and aloe vera. I thought I would give these a go, as they seemed to fit all the criteria that I was after in a disposable razor. Wilkinson Sword is a company that was established in 1772, the founder was a man called Henry Nock who was an acclaimed gun maker, when Nock died...
