Dry, Sensitive Skin…Be Gone!

September 30th, 2008 by sarah

I’ve been trying to do my part for myself and the environment lately, so I’ve started purchasing as my organic products as I can.  Lucky for me (and you) organic products are easy to come by and the world of beauty has provided a ton of great brands and products that are easy to fall in love with.

One line that I particularly like is Alba.  They have a whole line of amazing products and they are easily accessible thanks to all the grocery and drugstores that carry the line.  One product that I’m loving right now is their Coconut Milk facial wash.  I generally steer clear of creamy textured cleansers, but my skin has been dry lately and I want a face wash handy that will give my skin the moisture that it’s been craving. 

The Coconut Milk cleanser not only offers moisture, but it is also a dream on sensitive skin.  The wash itself is creamy, sort of the consistency of your average hair conditioner, and it leaves my skin feeling very soft.  Since I do have combo/oily skin on a regular basis, I only like to use this cleanser two maybe three times during the week.  But, if you suffer from dry skin you can rest easy knowing that your skin won’t be stripped of moisture.

I don’t use this cleanser to wash off my makeup at night because I feel like it wouldn’t give me the deep down cleansing I’m looking for.  However, it’s great in the morning because it cleanses my skin and gives me the perfect foundation before I apply my moisturizer; with no redness or dryness to worry about. 

Some other highlights about the cleanser are it’s 80% organic, it helps to draw out impurities and there is no animal testing.  Great for you and all our furry friends out there.

About Cupcakes Taste Nice

My lust for beauty products has been around since I was a kid. I always wanted the most eye catching packaging and the sweetest scents. As a preteen I could not wait to get my first pimple so that I could try out the different acne products that were marketed to me in magazines and on TV. As I got older I just loved the girlie side of wanting to look and feel pretty. I love taking a shower on Saturday morning and having a plethora of products to choose from depending on my mood that day. I anticipate my beauty and style magazines coming in the mail so I can read and research new products. I even spend hours on the internet searching for factual reviews of the latest and greatest products.
