I normally wait a few weeks (ahem, months more like, Sal!) before I feel the need to blog about a product as I like to give my skin time to adapt and see if I have any worthy results to spout about but I feel with this little beauty, I have to share tout suite!
A few years ago, a new 100% vegan skincare range was exclusively launched in Superdrug called B. and its gone from strength-to-strength, so much so they have recently introduced a new make-up range (again, totally vegan). The 'B' stands for Beautiful and the products have been slotted into 'phases' depending on your age group so its easy to find what would suit you.
I have used a few of their products already and I am a B.ig fan: B. Pure Sensitive Micellar Cleansing Wipes (£1.50), Micellar Facial Oil (£7), B. Lifted Contouring Cream (£13) and B. Refreshed Essence Lotion (£7).
The product that I want to harp on about today is their B. Clean Melting Gel Cleanser. It really does give a fabulous cleanse as its so frustrating (and not to mention disgusting) when you come to tone and find make-up remnants on the cotton wool pad...basically, the cleanser hasn't removed the make-up and grime of the day. Ugh. But not with this product - it removes everything. Please note, I've not used it to remove my eye make-up as I prefer to use what I have used for over 20 years - I have super-sensitive eyes but on the tube, it states that it removes eye make-up and is ophthalmically approved.
B. Clean is a clear gel that once massaged onto the skin, it melts to become an oil to give a deep cleanse. I have used facial cleansing oils before and because I do have an oily skin, I don't really like the feel of them but this one is so light that when you wash it off, it turns into a milky toner and you are left with hydrated, supple, clean skin once you have washed it off. I have replaced the B. Micellar Oil which does provide a good cleanse but I think I prefer the consistency of the gel-oil of the B. Clean. Also, I knew it was going to work when I washed my hands and the product removed easily so once you've washed it off, you are clean and ready to tone.
B. Clean is very similar to another cleansing product that I love, Oskia London Renaissance Cleansing Gel (Space NK, £29.50). I bought some when I lived in Dublin a few years ago and it was a hefty €35 but I loved it! It contains Vitamins A, C and E, chamomile and rose amongst other things and I really noticed my skin becoming softer and with a glow (probably down to the massage I was doing). Admittedly, there's none of the wonderful ingredients as what's in the Oskia Gel but B. Clean's results are the same and its vegan/cruelty-free.
However, if you don't want to fork out nearly thirty quid then get yourself to Superdrug and grab B. Clean for £7. In fact, you can get two as its buy one get one free...
