A Closer look: Ultrabland

Hey I'm  back and for this closer look I wanted to write about a product that I absolutely love, Ultrabland, 
Lush's hot cloth oil cleanser.

This is great for people who have sensitive skin, in fact it was invented by one of Lush's top inventors Helen. She invented this to help people with eczema and psoriasis. It's great for acne, dry, combination or oily skin. I love it as it removes every scrap of my make up.
 It really is a wonder product!

"One of our desert island products, Ultrabland, is based on an ancient formula for cold cream. It was invented by the Roman physician Galen, and where he used a mixture of beeswax, olive oil, water and rose petals, we’re able to disperse our Turkish rose absolute in water to create rose water. This, along with almond oil, beeswax and honey, is the basis for our Ultrabland formula. This cleanser is extremely effective: the honey softens and conditions the skin, and has antiseptic properties; whilst rose water and rose absolute reduce redness and help to balance the skin."

So, whats in it?

Almond oil: almond is a great carrier oil and closely resembles the skins own sebum. It's naturally full of vitamin E. The oil mixed with beeswax makes the perfect base to break down make up.

Rose water: Lush get their rose from Senir in Turkey. Rose calms the skin and helps with redness and inflammation. So it's great if you have break outs or more of a natural pink flush. This also has Rose absolute which can help with rosacea.

Honey: not only is honey hydrating but it is also anti-fungal, antibacterial and antiseptic. Lush get most of their honey from Greece. Honey is also self preserving and will help the product last longer.

Iris extract: Iris is often used for it's fragrance but in this case  iris florentina contain beneficial isoflavones which can help with irritated and inflamed skin.

It's definitely worth trying, it's an oldie but a goody and a Lush staff favourite. I couldn't do with out it!
