Wonderful Hydrating oil Cleanser

I’ve never used an oil face cleanser before, but to say I’m impressed is an understatement.
I love the way it removes all of my makeup so easily and without any issues.
It leaves my skin feeling hydrated and well nourished.
I am using it in my day and night routine and can see how my skin is looking so clear.
I have been using it for awhile now and being able to purchase it in the UK from Harrod’s with next day delivery is just awesome. I’m loving the refills which is a great saving.

Oil Cleanser

I’ve only recently switched to the oil based cleanser and I I’m loving it . I have mature skin but still prone to congestion. Along with the blemish serum and the exfoliating cleanser from Emma’s range I can confidently and happily say, I can see some improvement. Products smell divine and feel nice on your skin. Any help needed with the products, I have received quick responses from the team. Definitely keep buying and will go onto a subscription so I’ll never run out!

Excellent Cleanser

This is an excellent cleansing oil, removing make up easily- and unlike some cleansing oils, this one does not sting my eyes. My skin feels hydrated and comfortable after cleansing.
I am finding that with continued use my skin tone is looking more even and my skin feels more supple and has a lovely clean glow. I recommend this lovely product from Emma Lewisham.

Great product

I must admit I’ve never previously used an oil cleanser, but I’m impressed with the after effects. My skin feels very nice and non greasy. In fact, after trying, I reordered the full bottle and will continue using.

I’ve never enjoyed using an oil-based cleanser before, but I have noticed a positive difference in my skin when using this cleanser. It’s light on your skin, removes makeup well, and leaves your skin feeling nourished.
