Spring Cleaning {Skin by Monica Olsen review}


With every changing season comes a new army of skin-care products for me to try. The latest trial wasSkin by MonicaOlsen's Restore MSM Facial Cleanser in Peppermint for Sensitive Skin. I really like the philosophy behind these products."SKIN by Monica Olsen® introduces revolutionary skin care which is simple, kind, natural & organic. This line of natural skin care is brought to you by model Monica Olsen ,谁知道第一手是多么重要soft, radiant skin. Free of parabens, urea, alcohol, petroleum and other harmful chemicals, this is 100% pure skin care without all the junk."
Onto the review:
Pros-Cleanses well & gets sudsy without too much foam. Makeup washes off easily including mascara. I like that its a gel cleanser (I'm not a fan of creamy cleansers). Skin doesn't feel dry or tight after cleansing. No harsh chemical detergents, soaps, and parabens.
Cons-the biggest & only con is the peppermint oil. I didn't like that "awake/tingly feeling" after patting my skin dry. This cleanser is intended for those with sensitive skin however in my opinion this would be an irritant. Although I didn't have a reaction to this cleanser I would buy the other cleanser with Orange Blossom because I liked the ingredients.
Can be found at select Shoppers Drug Mart & Murale stores in Quebec.
Retails for approx. $33.95 cdn
