Face bar, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, body butter, dishes review
I have bought numerous Foamie bars and am very impressed with them.
The FACIAL bar with NIACINAMIDE is my FAVOURITE BAR EVER. This smells gorgeous, is foamy and lovely on the skin, and doesn’t cause dryness. Most importantly, as a rosacea sufferer, it doesn’t irritate my skin, and has even helped a little with reducing the redness. Yes, it’s all expensive (the less you want in terms of plastic, chemicals, eco impact…the more you pay, it seems, which is true for ALL eco products!) but the facial bar is soooooooo worth it! And it’s nowhere near as expensive as most rosacea facial washes, so I’m sticking to it forever!
The SHOWER GEL bars are beautifully scented and do their job like a dream, albeit an expensive dream. They scent the room and my skin for a good while afterwards…lovely! There is no waste and they last about as long as a 500ml bottle of something high quality.
The SHAMPOO (I use the aloe Vera one for dry hair) again is a bit expensive, but not more so than other premium or eco shampoos. It lasts as long as a large bottle of something fancy, and there’s none wasted or stuck to the bottom of the bottle and impossible to get out. I use it until it’s completely gone. Perfect!
The CONDITIONER is a shame. It smells beautiful and foams up like a soap so easy to tell when you’ve got enough on, but for me it didn’t make my hair feel silky or conditioned at all. I used the one for dry hair and was disappointed, I’m afraid. But it seems that good solid conditioners are hard to find, so I’m not surprised.
The BODY BUTTER goes on very sparingly as it’s quite solid, but smells lovely and leaves my skin feeling deeply moisturised for the whole day. Even my heels and that’s saying something!
I love the SOAP DISHES and they allow me to take the products to work, as I have to shower at the end of my shift.
