Let me be honest – I love washing my face. I love the feel of cold water waking me up or removing the stress of the day. And I’ve never understood the trend for makeup wipes, until now. Here’s why.
I’ve had false lashes for a few months now and I love them but I really miss washing my face. I just couldn’t bring myself to buy facial wipes as, like you, I know how terrible they are for the environment – they are clogging up our sewers, creating floods of noxious waste, and triggering outbreaks of serious allergies.
Traditional wipes are usually made from a combinationof plastics, wood pulp and cotton often impregnated with a cocktail of harmful chemicals and a combination of alcohol, preservatives, fragrances, cleaning and moisturising agents. There’s no way I’m buying those.
And then Arbonne launched these amazing facial cloths.
These environmentally friendly, home compostable wipes are made with 100% Tencel which is a cellulosic fibre obtained from wood pulp. It’s fully recyclable even in your home compost bin so it’s win for you and for the environment too.
One wipe will remove makeup, sweat and pollution. There’s no need to rinse and they are perfect for all skin types, even sensitive skin, and won’t
dry or irritate skin.
So how do they do it?
They are Infused with mild botanical essences which will leave your skin cleansed, soothed, hydrated, and fresh with just one swipe.
At their heart they are a makeup that cares for your skin with moisturising botanicals
and age defying ingredients, enhancing what’s already there. They are an infusion of a
Red algae extract blend that provides hydration and supports your skin’s moisture barrier to help protect against environmental dryness
Camapu flower extract blend, containing antioxidants, helps soothe skin from environmental stressors with hydration, improving the appearance of skin tone and radiance while helping to remove pollution from the surface of the skin
Rose and geranium essence waters provide an instant boost of hydration while helping to refresh skin and gives the most delightful aroma!
Pair them with Arbonne’s latest makeup addition – this amazing Refreshing Finishing Spray. This advanced setting spray helps set, protect and refresh while minimising shine and oil breakthrough throughout the day. Arbonne’s Pollution Shield Technology helps protect skin from environmental stressors while skin loving botanicals hydrate and smooth.
How I use it
Spray after makeup application for a flawless finish or throughout the day for a refreshing boost. I love it on a long haul flight, on the London commute, in an air conditioned office or on the beach. It’s a handbag must have! Not only is it protecting you from the environment but it helps minimise shine or oil breakthrough
throughout the day too.
