A'kin Rose & Geranium Pure Creamy Cleanser & Toner in One
After stumbling across the advertisement for this range in the Organic Life magazine I just had to view their website. Not long after this the Rose & Geranium Pure Creamy Cleanser & Toner in One was on my bathroom shelf.
This is a lovely creamy cleanser that is suitable for normal, dry, sensitive or mature skin types. It contains soothing geranium oil which has a balancing action on the skin by regulating sebum secretion as well as anti inflammatory and antiseptic properties and is therefore suitable for normal to slightly oily/mild acne skin types. The addition of rose makes it particularly suitable for sensitive skins with broken capillaries or inflammation. Rose is renown for its rejuvenating properties and combined with geranium has a lovely sweet, floral smell; a perfect combination.
The cleanser is suitable for the removal of eye make up (except waterproof mascara) and a little goes a long way. With all cleansers apply to dampened hands first before massaging into the skin. Not only does this facilitate easier application but less product is used. It can be wiped or rinsed off and does not leave any greasy residue, instead a soft dewiness that illuminates the skin. For those with normal skin but with a tendency to oiliness on the T-zone I would recommend this cleanser for night time use only. I personally use this as the second step in my cleansing regime after first removing my make up with jojoba oil. Since this cleanser contains witch hazel it is not necessary to use a separate toner. Personally however I do prefer to tone separately and will no doubt add the {A’kin} toner to my ever increasing collection in the very near future. The [A'kin] Rose & Geranium Pure Creamy Cleanser & Toner in One is a part of The Purist Company product range.
