Re: Magic Beans
I didn’t get on very well with that Pure cleansing balm, it was quite hard and waxy. I might’ve had a duff one mind.

Oh I've just ordered it
I am currently using a Superdrug one but I hate the smell of it. It smells of lard

Re: Magic Beans
I’m glad I didn’t buy that one, I did have it in my hand last night.
The texture of Emma Hardie and Elemis balms is so much nicer than the M&S one, but my face feels lovely and soft and clean right now after using it so I’m happy with it for now. I’ll save up my points for another Elemis one day. :queenie10000000001:

Re: Magic Beans
I love the smell of my current face balm thing so would be devastated at lard scented cleansers.
I've just applied the lovely rose scented Dr Sebagh serum.

Re: Magic Beans
The rosehip one had a really good write up somewhere but it was out of stock last night.
I had a sample of the Superdrug B menopause sleep cream and that’s been quite nice to use. Rich but not too rich. I probably won’t bother buying it though.

I think it's really good at removing eye makeup without causing irritation.I'm not wearing makeup these days, but I'd hate to run out of it

Re: Magic Beans
I really dislike Eve Lom cleansing balm- both the one in the tub and the one in the squeezable tube. smells like paraffin, rock hard, stings the eyes and comes with a muslin.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I don't get on with muslins.they feel 'sharp' on my face.

Re: Magic Beans
The 100ml pot, and I assume one flannel, if any. Elemis dropped their flannel last year.

I like Eve Lom but I do know what you mean about muslins. I prefer a face cloth or flannel or whatever they're called.
I'm using Omorovicza cleansing foam and Wild Source cleansing melt.

I’m not a muslin cloth fan either. Much prefer a soft flannel. I could do with some new ones as all my white ones are a dinge grey colour now.

Re: Magic Beans
Partner used my Eve Lom and Emma Hardie muslin cloths to clean shoes.
I've had to buy PINK flannels so he doesn't use them as dishcloths. He is fundamentally unable to tell household textiles apart.
