I’ve had this pot of Emma Hardie Amazing Face Natural Lift and Sculpt Moringa Cleansing Balm in my cupboard forever. I got it in a Feel Unique beauty box and I’d read that it was really good stuff, so I had been saving it until I’d used up all my other cleansers. You know, save the best for last! Well, I seemed to have had cleanser after cleanser to get through and finally last month I started to use it for my PM cleanse.
Benefits of Emma Hardie Amazing Face Natural Lift and Sculpt Moringa Cleansing Balm:
- Thoroughly cleanses and moisturises the skin.
- Helps to purify and minimises the appearance of open pores.
- Calming for sensitive skin.
- Revitalising for dull and mature skins.
- Can be used as a rescue balm, i.e. on dry elbows or knees, or as a lip balm.
- Doubles as a soothing mask if left on the skin for ten minutes.
Key ingredients and what they do:
- Moringa seed extract, Wild Sea Fennel and Vitamin E: Balance, purify and help to minimise the appearance of open pores.
- Orange, Neroli and Mandarin extracts: Rejuvenates and revitalises the skin.
- Jasmine, cedarwood and Rose: Helps to recondition dull, dry, dehydrated and mature skins.
I’ve been using this solely as a cleanser, despite the fact that it can be used as a lip balm and a face mask, as it’s only a 15ml pot. It’s a gorgeous product to use, it smells and feels so luxurious. I take a small amount, literally just scoop my clean fingertip, and mix with a few drops of warm water. The balm turns milky and then I just massage it over my face. It smells amazing, of jasmine and neroli.
Then I simply remove the cleanser, either using the Emma Hardie Amazing Face Natural Lift and Sculpt Dual Action Professional Cleansing Cloth (it has muslin on one side and mega-soft microfibre on the other) or just a standard flannel (I’m so not fussed about using muslin cloths on my face). Every last scrap of make-up comes off in just one go with this cleanser, even mascara just melts away, and my skin is left feeling soft and fresh.
I can’t say that my face feels particularly lifted or sculpted but I don’t think I really need any lifting or sculpting yet anyway! As far as cleansers go though, this is pretty damn good stuff and the fact that I don’t need a separate eye make-up remover makes it even better.
