This foamed up a bit and did a good job with cleansing
I used the Facial Cleanser (120 mL) both morning and evening. In the morning I would put some on my Mary Kay Skinvigorate Cleansing Brush, which I not only use on my face, but also on my neck, chest, and behind my ears. This foamed up a bit and did a good job with cleansing. I found the scent to be a good wake up for mornings. At night I just used my hands and a warm washcloth and it removed all of my makeup. You will need a separate eye makeup remover for mascara and eye liner though (I suggest Mary Kay’s Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover). I would consider repurchasing this cleanser once I use up a few others I have in my stash.<br /><br />Have I ever told you how much I love trying new beauty products? In July I was fortunate enough to be sent the Pure Mauve Line of Products Made in Canada by Carapex Inc. of Chambly, Quebec to test out for 30 days and give my opinion. One of the reasons they thought I could benefit from this specific range is because I have written previously about the scalp psoriasis I’ve had for the past 18 months. The Tea Tree Oil is thought to help clear up the plaque that grows quickly over the scalp and sometimes other areas. This plaque appears very dry and can flake, crack, and if scratched can bleed and be very sore. Here’s a quote from the Carapex website about the Pure Mauve line “Due to our passion in the benefits of Tea Tree Oil, we developed this line of clean, natural, invigorating products. Only the purest, highest quality of Australian Tea Tree Oil has been utilized to work wonders on skin inflammation, breakouts and other conditions.”<br /><br />So I don’t have to type it out every time, each Pure Mauve product I was sent has the name “Invigorating” and “with Tea Tree Oil”. I like the dark purple bottles because they’re different from anything else I have in the bathroom so stand out. I wear contacts so can barely see without them or my glasses and each bottle cap (except the Body Lotion) has a large silver letter on it so you know what it is you’re grabbing for. “S” for Shampoo, “C” for Conditioner, “T” for Toner, “M” for Moisturizer and “C” again for Cleanser. The Hair products are double the size of the facial ones, so you wouldn’t ever mix up the two “C”s.<br /><br />I’ve been using everything exclusively for 30 days now and have 2/3 left still of the Lotion, Shampoo and Conditioner and 1/2 of the facial toner, cleanser, and moisturizer. I estimate the face items would last 2 months, the hair products for 3, and the body lotion would depend on whether you use it all over or just in certain areas. If you do not enjoy the smell of Tea Tree Oil, then these products are NOT for you. I joke that I smell like a health food store when I’m done my routine! Luckily the smell doesn’t last all day and you can still wear body mists or perfumes without the fragrance changing.<br /><br />Final Results: To BEE (this gets a positive BUZZ)
