I Want Clean Skin

I realize after all this time, I've yet to post about cleansers.

Cleansers are extremely important whether you're a guy or a girl that doesn't wear makeup. During the day, your skin absorbs dust, grime and oil from your surroundings. (Of course makeup doesn't help with this either.) In order to let your skin breathe again, you must remove all those nasty pollutants. This is why cleansing is vastly important to your skin's radiance.

Speaking of radiance, I'm always on the hunt for a smashing cleanser that actually improves my skin's texture and color and, needless to say, I've found it.
The product is Burt's Bees Radiance Facial Cleanser and I use this faithfully about four times a week. This cleanser's main ingredient is Royal Jelly. (Yes, the jelly that is fed to larvae in a bee colony....grossed out yet?) Strange as it sounds, it does work. Within about two weeks, I noticed my fine lines diminishing and my skin appeared plumper. (In a good way.) Anyway, I typically order my Burt's Bees products from their website but you can pick up a sample pack at Shoppers Drug Mart.

My second cleanser of choice is Botanics Skin Brightening Cleanser. I use this one about the three times a week and love that I don't need to get my skin wet. (You apply it to dry skin and wipe off with a cotton pad.) It tingles once on the skin and, after it's removed, my skin feels soft and luxurious. I highly recommend this cleanser for those that want to dissolve redness, irritation and those yucky little skin bumps. Also, this is also the cheapest cleanser I have EVER used as it sells for only $9 in Shoppers.

**Note: As in my previous post, I still use a towelette to remove my makeup first. I find that I use way less cleanser and my skin feels cleaner.

Happy washing ladies!!!

  1. I DIE for Ole Henriksen African Red Tea cleanser right now. It is a super luxurious self-foaming cleanser that makes my skin GLOW! I follow up with Ole Henriksen's Three Little Wonders and I have literally never had skin this great in my life.

    I am going to try your trick of using a makeup removing towlette first, though. That sounds like a fantastic idea!
