Anybody have any experience of these? I noticed on the Boots website that they are now stocking this brand. Having done a quick google on her name, she appears to be some kind of expert in aromatherapy. Uses lots of essential oils in her skincare range.
Just wondering if her products are new on the market or perhaps if they have only just been introduced to the UK and are already widely used elsewhere in the world.
I'm intrigued by her Manuka Honey Revitalising Facial Wash. Still, if it's a gel cleanser then I will have to avoid it. 
Here are some of her other products:

Anybody tried any of them? |

Oh Toe did you have to? Oh well I suppose I could do with boosting my advantage card points  |

Sorry! I didn't mean to, honest. 
I've just returned from a trip to my local Boots. They don't stock the range. I need to go to a larger store.
I also noticed on the website that Boots are stocking Korres products too. Another tempting line. Yet again, not in my local store.
Shame. I had a double advantage points voucher that I was going to use with the purchase. It expires tomorrow though.  |

OT, but I so would love to shop at Boots; they don't ship to the U.S. I have wanted to try the Boots cream cleanser that is supposed to be similar to the Eve Lom one. Since I can't try the Boots one, I'll probably have to break down eventually and get the Eve Lom (or, I think that Ellen Lange has one  )

| I haven't tried the eve lom one, but I like the boots one so much that I am now on my 3rd pot! This is a true record for me! |

Do you mean this one?

They now also do a Purifying Cleansing Balm which is more for combination/oily skin, I think.
I've not tried either of the products but was tempted to try the purifying balm. Guapagirl uses the massaging balm (I think) and so would be able to give you some feedback on that product.
I recently bought a similar cleansing balm made by The Sanctuary. Only used it once but decided not to use it again as I didn't like the waxy balm sensation on my skin.
Is the Eve Lom cleanser a proper cream or is it a waxy balm? |

yep...that's the one I use! Interesting they are doing a purifying one now...maybe I should get one for mini-me as the little toad keeps using mine, despite being told that, like ALL my stuff including make-up, it is totally wrong for her skin!  |

I used to be like that when I was little. Always dipping into my Mum's cosmetics bag etc. Still like to have a look at what products she's using whenever I visit. Sometimes borrow them....
What are the essential oils used in the Boots balm? Is it really a cheap knock-off of the Eve Lom?
I see that Eve Lom uses clove oil, hops, chamomile and eucalyptus. What are the oils used in the Boots one?
I'm trying to find more of a cream and muslin cloth combo (like Liz Earle) but haven't found one yet. |

Yup, that's the one that I want. I didn't know that they do a purifying balm, too. Now I want to try that  I have never used the Eve Lom or Liz Earle (who the heck is Ellen Lange? I had that confused with the Liz Earle), so I can't comment on how or what they are. I just want to try the balm/muslin cloth process, and the Boots has received good feedback, not to mention it is cheap  Of course, knowing that I can't get it makes me want it even more

Yes, this is one that I had been considering. The shipping cost made me not want to get it though. I haven't found anything comparable in the U.S., so I may cave and order it anyway Since you like it, I just may do that after I pay for my latest EDS order |
