Liz Earle: The Earl of Cleansers

Liz Earle's Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser

Liz Earle Starter Kit

I have been trying out the Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Cleanser for the past week and it’s so good that one of my sisters has taken it from my bathroom because she absolutely adores it and my other sister who used it (and tried to take it) ended up buying her own starter kit.

This multi award winning British brand acknowledged the need for simple, fuss-free and natural products back in 1995 (when I was still at school).

Cleanse & Polish is a plant based cleanser, rich in naturally active ingredients with a 2 phase action system.

Phase 1 is the cleansing. Free from mineral oil, it has a rich and creamy texture and swiftly removes all traces of make up, including my Mac liquid last eyeliner (which has amazing staying power).

Phase 2 is the polishing; the muslin cloth polishes skin and gently lifts dead skin cells to reveal radiant skin.

Two pumps of product is all you need

On the first night of using the cleanser, I instantly fell in love with this product. The smell of eucalyptus and hops (if only you could smell it right now) is so fresh and invigorating whilst the cocoa butter melted into my skin, making it feel silky smooth. These luscious natural ingredients make it a joyous experience each time I wash my face. I then removed the cleanser with the pure muslin cloth. The reason I used Eve Lom religiously for 9 years was partially due to the muslin cloth, which stimulates circulation and removes every last trace of make up, ensuring skin is left glowing and feeling squeaky clean.

The cleanser comes with step by step instructions which are great, as per the instructions I pumped the cleanser twice and initially thought that it wasn’t enough product. I was wrong; the foamy looking product was actually intensely creamy, not greasy like Eve Lom. My skin felt and smelled so fresh and clean afterwards.

Step by step instructions on how to use the product

A quote from my sister after using the cleanser for the first time, she said “I feel like I’ve got new skin. It’s incredible.”

I am so disappointed in myself that I didn’t discover this marvellous product sooner, I still can’t get over the amazing quality and the sweet price! It’s a winner all round – a make up it girl star product!

You will only find plant oils in this cleanser, no mineral oils, paraffin wax or petroleum.

Liz Earle does NOT test on animals.

The starter kit I tested out includes; travel carry case, 100ml cleanser and two muslin cloths.

100ml starter kit costs £13.00 and is available from www.lizearle.com or John Lewis stores.
