Jane Scrivner - Nourishing Cleanser

A few weeks back we featured on The Amazing Blog Jane Scrivner's Skin Elixir - a luxurious balancing face oil that leaves your skin feeling hydrated, restored and plumped. Today we're lucky enough to be featuring Jane Scrivner's hero product: The Nourishing Cleanser. I've waited quite a while to write this review on purpose - I really wanted to get the most of this cleanser. All I can say is that if I could, I would have a lifetime supply of this and never ever look back.

The product is a luxurious and thick balm cleanser that mixed with a bit of warm water turns into this almost creamy and ever-so soft cleansing milk. I use Jane Scrivner's Nourishing Cleanser every other day; whenever I want to treat my skin or when it's feeling a bit temperamental. This unique balm is Jojoba Oil and Beeswax based blended with 9 skin loving essential oils. Jane Scrivner's Nourishing Balm comes with a Fluffy Mitt that I wet with warm water and I gently rub on my skin to remove the cleanser and any make-up residue. The Fluffy Mitt is soft and it's easily washed in warm water with the rest of your laundry, or in my case, with the rest of my flannels.

The only things that I dislike about this balm (if 'dislike' is the best word to use... it may exaggerate what I want to say), is that I find that the balm doesn't have enough slip on the skin; that is why I need to add just teeny bit more of water. Overall, Jane Scrivner's Nourishing Cleanser has become a staple in my skincare routine - whenever I use it my skin feels soft, deeply cleansed and hydrated. This balm cleanser is a definite winner for me and for The Amazing Blog.

For a full list of stockists please visit Jane Scrivner's website. The Nourishing Balm retails at £45... and as Jane herself says "It's not just a cleanser, it's beautiful skin in a jar". Worth every single penny for sure.

Kelly Edwards Essential Starter Kit

At The Amazing Blog we love to make sure our skin is clear and healthy each and every day. With Kelly Edwards new 4 piece skincare essential starter set it is easy to cleanse my skin on a routine basis.  With her selection from normal to slightly dry skin this kit can offer people with different skin types a selection to choose from that will match perfectly.

For the past couple of weeks I have been following the weekly routine that Kelly Edwards suggests using her Essential Starter kit. Using the Cleanser, Toner, and Floral Moisturiser twice a day and exfoliating my skin once a week I have began to notice a difference with my skin. Before I go to sleep every night I use the cleanser to gently remove my make up  and wash my face. Then after clearing the everyday grime from my face I use a dab of the toner to hydrate and refresh my skin.The alcohol free floral scented toner has an added bonus to it, after hydrating your skin it restores the pH of my skin. The last step to my daily routine is to moisturise my face. Using the Floral Moisturiser it nourishes and protects my skin with a blend of rich plant oils, vitamins, and esstential oils that will leave my face and skin refreshed for the following day. While the Floral Moisturiser protects your skin, it also protects against radicals to combat the signs of premature ageing. On Sunday I used a little dab of the exfoliating cream to gentle buff away the dead skin cells and unblock my pores. It's nice to know that all of Kelly Edwards products are natural and do not contain any nasties. With all of her products being handmade in Wales, you know you are getting a great product for an affordable price.

With this easy weekly routine my face is glowing and feeling hydrated throughout the week. I have noticed a difference by using this 4 step process and other’s have too! You can find the Kelly Edwards skincare set on-line for £38. This set includes a 100ml Cleanser, 50 ml Toner, 50 ml Floral Moisturiser, and a 50 ml Exfoliating Cream.
