Liz Earle cleanse & polish

Like many before me, I've ventured into the world of Liz Earle. I've never really 'spiced up' my make up remover routine and having seen so much hype about this product, I thought why not?! I bought myself the Cleanse & Polish starter kit, which has a 100ml Cleanse & Polish and two muslin cloths. 

To be honest, my first opinions of this weren't all that great (controversial?!). The smell isn't something that I'm 100% keen on, which is something that I do look for when I'm looking into products that I'm smearing all over my face.

Despite those opinions, I've found that this is definitely something that I'm going to travel with in the future, because it's just so simple to pack. The first time I used this was when I stayed with my sister, and all I had to do was pick up the little bag that the starter kit comes in and I didn't have to worry about getting cotton wool pads, various different bottle of eye make up remover and so on.

Once I'd gotten used to the concept of this, which took a while as it just feels so abnormal to rub off eye make up, I started to really like it. I've noticed that, while my skin isn't prone to breakouts, it started to look and feel a lot clearer.

It's also pretty fascinating to see your make up wiped off onto the muslim cloth (how can my foundation match my skin tone so well and yet still come off looking so orange?!)

If you've been thinking about trying this, I would highly recommend the starter kit, which I picked up from John Lewis for £14.25. I don't know if I'll become such a keen fan of these as a lot of people seem to be, but I'll definitely be travelling with this in the future!

I'm also looking forward to trying some of the other skincare products, as well as some of the make up range.

Have you got any Liz Earle favourites or things you want to try?
