Out of all of the facial skin care products on the market, I reckon cleansers are the hardest to choose. I seldom think twice about slapping a new moisturiser or serum on my face, yet I approach cleansing products with caution and suspicion. Cleansers just seem to be more of a 'risk'. They can be too drying, too harsh. Too irritating. Too abrasive. They can unbalance the skin by stripping the natural oils. Then of course if they're too gentle, they're uneffective and you end up having to use a bit of elbow grease to get the job done. And of course, we're supposed to be gentle on our skin right?
Now I'm lucky, my skin rarely reacts or shows any sign of irritation, but for our ladies with sensitive skin, cleansing can be the trickiest step to get right. Sensitive skin is often prone to irritiation and even coming into contact with the teeniest amount of the 'wrong' product can lead to a painful flare up that lasts days. Acne prone skin can be made worse by harsh cleansers that strip the natural oils, encouraging the skin to produce more. Eczema prone skin can be inflamed and made worse. Dry skin can be made so dry it splits.
Yeap, for those with sensitive skin, there is no jumping skin-first into trying a new product. You need to look at the ingredients and carefully weigh up if the product might do your skin some good.
We're looking specifically for ladies with sensitive skin to put Zeosoft's Natural Mineral Skin Cleanser to the test. This gorgeous Kiwi product promises to cleanse, detoxify and wash away impurities. It's a natural, mineral cleanser that can be used daily to remove makeup and refresh your skin.
It’s active ingredients are natural minerals called soft zeolite and Opal A silica, sourced from thermal spring valleys near Rotorua New Zealand. It gently removes makeup and other impurities on your skin leaving it feeling, fresh, supple and revived.
The product contains no parabens, no colorants, no artificial fragrances and is also environmentally 'positive' as it continues to clean when entering the waterways.
