Cleopatra’s Emergency Facial Cleanser

Run out of facial cleanser? Put a dash of warm water in a saucer of milk, dunk cotton wool and wipe over your face to remove make-up. Rinse face well.

This emergency fix is gentle on your skin and comes in handy if you’re travelling, too.  Should you find at the end of a long, weary day that you forgot to bring your usual cleanser along, head for the complimentary tea and coffee facilities. Most hotel rooms have milk available, even if it’s the long life variety.

For your regular skincare routine, it’s so important to choose products that are free of harsh and harmful ingredients. Keep an eye out for added fragrance, which is very often still included in products that are free of things like sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene glycol and PEGS.

Please watch this video if you’re curious to know why fragrance is one of the key ingredients best eliminated from your home.  We think we’re doing the right thing by moving to a non-toxic household — and high fives for taking positive action — but if synthetics are still hanging around in those products, it’s a false sense of security.
