Soap and Glory 'Peaches & Clean' 4 in 1 Wash off Deep Cleansing Lotion - £7.00 - Boots - here
Hi Ladies, Hope you're all doing okay, today I thought i'd share with you this lovely product from Soap and Glory the 'Peaches & Clean' 4 in 1 Wash Off Deep Cleansing Lotion, god what a mouthful! If you've read my blog for a while you'll know that I absolutely adore Soap and Glory, I own a huge range of their products and i'm constantly reviewing them and talking about them on my blog, I try not to overwhelm you too much but I always think they deserve a cheeky mention. I love the whole brand as a whole and I've never found a product from them yet that I don't like. Anyway for Christmas my lovely brother got me the Soap and Glory 'Best of All' gift set (post here) because he knows I have serious love for all their products & this was one of the products within the gift set that I've never tried before so I thought i'd give it ago for a few months & then review it for you all.
I thought i'd start by explaining what this product actually is, the name is pretty long and confusing but basically this is Soap and Glory's answer for a cleanser, on their website they say "Our special clogged T-zone formula Includes peach extract (with skin smoothing fruit acids), quillaja bark (a gentle natural ‘soap’), jojoba oil (an emollient skin softener), Detoxyboost™ technology (to help purify and deep clean) and Poreshrink R2™ (for a clearer, fresher, brighter complexion). In our opinion it’s the best cleansing milk on the market!". They say that you should use this on your face in the evenings to take off your makeup and it will leave your face really clean, smooth and refreshed.
First of all I really like the packaging of this one, not only because it's fun and girly like all of the other Soap and Glory products but also because it has a pump & I think that's such an important feature of a cleanser. I hate it when my cleansers don't have a pump, because I hate just having to fire the product out especially when you're as clumsy as me it just doesn't work out very well and always ends up in a massive mess. I think this is a pretty good size for a cleanser, it's 200ml and if you were travelling this would be no pain to take because the pump actually locks meaning that the product won't leak anywhere.
The next thing that I have to mention is the smell as the name would suggest it smells like Peaches and Cream, but I think it also has a slightly minty smell to it. I'm personally not a fan of the smell of this, but that's because I don't really like the smell of peaches in general, if you do though I think the scent of this would be right up your street, because it really is bang on and smells exactly like peaches, it's quite a nice scent for spring and summer actually.
In terms of the actual product, I don't actually use it to remove my makeup, I think you could do if you wanted too but I find that I have to use quite a lot of product and my skin is super sensitive so I find that if I was to use this every day then my skin didn't really react that well. But on the odd occasion when I have used this to take my makeup off it has worked and got rid of all traces of eye makeup and face makeup and it's always left my skin feeling really nice too.
Anyway, because I haven't got a lot of use out of this product as a cleanser I decided that I would use it as a face mask once a week to give my skin a bit of a treat and for this purpose it works really amazingly, I leave it on whilst i'm showering or having a bath in the evening once I've taken my makeup off and spread a fair bit on my face, then I relax and once I've washed it off my skin an hour or so later I'm always so impressed by the results, it leaves my skin so silky smooth, really refreshed and literally glowing. I think this product just works so good as a face mask and more of a 'treat' for my skin rather than as an everyday product. I think this really does leave my skin looking radiant, clean and bright and my complexion always looks sooo much better when I've used this.
Overall, I would say that this is a really nice product just not my favourite of the cleansers from Soap and Glory, I've tried their Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser which I thought was pretty good and I love their Soap and Glory foaming facial wash which is the face scrub I use in the mornings in the shower and I've also tried their 'Off Your Face' Cleansing wipes here and I really liked those too. So I don't think this is a bad product at all I just think Soap and Glory as a brand have better cleansers (all the examples mentioned are here) and this product for me works as an amazing face mask that does wonders for my skin once a week! I would suggest you try this if you're looking for a new face mask or you love the smells of peaches & cream because this will be right up your street! Let me know if you've tried any of the Soap and Glory Cleansing products and what you think and i'll speak to you all soon!
Lots of Love
