Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Cleansing Milk Reviews

Review of Barefoot Botanical Rosa Fina Nourishing Cleansing Milk
By Beverly S.

Packaging: The pump dispenser on Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Nourishing Cleansing Milk has a clean design with Barefoot's distinctive pink petals on the white box with a 125ml size quality pump. Cap to keep nozzle protected & one of the best pumps which doesn't clog with any surplus product. Super clean dispense of each pump required.

Application: Advice on pump to use warm hands before applying the light textured cream. I found warming my hands in hot water was the most effective way to give a lovely massage to my face, neck and décolletage. I used two pumps especially in the evenings as I found one pump disappeared too quickly on my dry skin. The aroma was uplifting with the combination of Persian Rose, Mandarin & Juniper. The cream is scented but it isn't overpowering & unlike highly scented cleansers I found this one didn't irritate my skin, the scent was refreshing in the morning & super relaxing in the evening.
Normal caution to avoid contact with eyes although this doesn't mean it can't be used to remove eye makeup as it removes all makeup including eye make up gently & thoroughly. I loved the fact my skin didn't feel stripped or tight after cleansing.

Ingredients: Ingredients are listed on the pump although I was curious about some of the ingredients listed therefore a visit to Barefoot Botanicals products website provided me with a clear list with explanations about each ingredient used. If only all skincare brands would provide a list like this.

The cleanser uses an advanced formula combining highly effective herbs with the Rosa mosquito oil. This combination cleanses the skin with the extra benefits of cooling, conditioning and strengthening. Most importantly it will not remove vital oils & it protects the skin's acid mantle.

Comments: I love using products with rose oil so testing the Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Nourishing Cleansing Milk was a joy for me. I used the cleanser morning and evening to test in all situations with and without makeup. I don't wear heavy make up but I didn't have any doubt if grime and make up were removed. My muslin cloth showed the cleanser worked on mineral or cream foundation including light eye make up.
I was reassured to note the cleanser was suitable for a variety of skin types & sensitive skin was included. At no time did I feel Barefoot Botanicals Rosa Fina Nourishing Cleansing Milk was too rich in fact the gentle but effective cleansing proved calming to my sensitive skin.

Pros
Therapeutic skin cleansing
Doesn't strip vital oils
Gentle but effective (very important)
Excellent pump dispenser
125ml a little more than most 100ml cleansers

Cons
Dry skin types may find one pump isn't sufficient to massage into the skin although a little water helps with the movement of the cream

A'kin Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub Reviews

Review of A'kin Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub
By Anisa B.

The A'kin Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub comes in a 75ml tube which is easy to open and easy to dispense the product out. It is easy to travel with as well and to take to the gym etc. This A’kin scrub is yellowish orange in colour and looks like your typical scrub with small granules in it. The granules are very gentle and are slightly bigger than your average scrub. It smells really lovely and natural, not perfume-like or strong.
A’kin does not use any artificial ingredients or chemicals in their products and they are 100% natural.
I really like the A'kin Gentle Exfoliating Facial Scrub and have been using it quite regularly. It is gentlest scrub I’ve ever used and at the same time, it really does exfoliate well and leave the skin feeling smooth and soft. It does not dry the skin out or irritate it and it smells wonderful. I can use the A'kin Facial Scrub daily if I want and it will still work nicely without causing any problems to my skin. I do have eczema flare ups and this does nothing to aggravate them. I highly recommend this to those who need exfoliation but have a hard time finding one that is gentle enough to use often.

Pros:
Smells nice
Affordable
Good ingredients
Hygienic packaging that is portable too
Very gentle yet does the job
Cons: None
