It’s not often I leave the house without wearing tights but we’re in the midst of a heatwave here in Britain. A warning: get your sunglasses out cause my legs are white with a capital W (expect rays of blinding light). What better way to prepare them for public view then by exfoliating. So off to Crab Tree & Evelyn it was. I asked the nice lady to recommend something for sensitive skin and she referred me to their Naturals collection. After deciding on one, she tested it on my hand there in the shop.

Ok, so you may remember that I said I was booked in at Debenhams for the Dior artistry lesson. Well…(warning: incoming rant)…I finished my other errands early so I went to the counter to see if they had an earlier slot only to be told that the woman I was meant to see was on a training course! The girl at the counter was less than apologetic…’Oh, I guess we should have phoned you seeing as she’s not in…’ You think!?! I kind of expected a bit more professionalism, really. I was quite annoyed, as you can imagine, so I bought the nude design on the spot and didn’t bother to rebook.

I like the idea of Simple as a Brand; they use pure natural ingredients to make gentle products for sensitive skin. The main reason I picked this over the others was that there are relatively few ingredients in their Eye Make-up Remover compared to other brands. This is what the website (www.simple.co.uk) says about it:
Remove all eye make up even waterproof mascara with our non greasy Conditioning Eye Make-Up Remover that won’t sting or irritate your eyes
Pro-Vitamin B5 restores, softens and smoothes
100% oil free so no greasy residue
Opthalmologically tested so suitable for contact lens wearers
