Two products reviewed:Rose & Mallow Moisturiser. Organic marshmallow and luxurious rose absolute smooth and balance the skin while the vitamin rich blend of carrot and almond revitalises and rejuvenates. Use morning and night as part of a skin-care regime, or apply regularly throughout the day. Price: £19.50 for 50g.
My rating: Rating 3.5 out of 5. This moisturiser absorbed very well, and is certainly economic. I used this over a few days and would call this a generally good all day moisturiser for combination skin that did not leave you greasy and had a very pleasant but not overpowering scent. Actually the scent is quite a nostalgic one but I can’t for the life of me think what it reminds me of!
Citrus Hand Softener/Treatment
Directions Apply to dry, rough or cracked skin of the hands (knees or feet!) as required to soothe and soften.
My rating: 4.5 out of 5: I loved this! The scent is very clean and fresh without being overly strong and it certainly is a very effective moisturiser/ softener. I would recommend this for night use and perhaps with moisturising gloves for best results but not so much as a day cream as it is very intensive and perhaps a bit too slick for daytime use. I didn’t use it on my feet, but with hindsight I wish I had as I imagine it would a great product for my heels!
How can I get my hands on these products?
Oh! Lucky you. I love Neal's yard products. You should have asked to review the mother to be pack!
I'd never tried them before, although obviously had heard of them. How do you narrow it down? "I like to review this, ooh and this, oh and three of those and ….". LOL! What is your favourite product Karyn?
I like their aromatherapy oils. I had two babies at home and used the oils to help me during labour. I also like Power Berry daily moisture. Makes your skin look youthful. Which is exactly what I need!
Organic marshmallow and luxurious rose << is it a smell that I would want to eat?
Not quite- its a Grandma but not granny smell (!?!?), comforting and sweet but not too much so. Driving me insane lol. It's definitely not in anyway a bad smell, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to eat it lol!
