| I read a lot about Eve Lom and how great the cleanser is. I haven't had time to look through all the posts to see if I could find anything on it so forgive me if there is and I'm missing it. So, if anyone out there is loving their Eve Lom (or not?) can you let me know your experience. Thanks. |

| I purchased the cleanser from eve lom's website. Great customer service but unfortunately the cleanser dried out and irritated my sensitive skin in the long run. |

I don't know about her whole line of products, but...........the cleanser is my absolute favourite that there is  It can be drying (I have mature combo/oily in the summer & combo/dry - still mature - in the winter) so I use it accordingly. The Rescue Mask is also very, very good. One thing about both is that they are highly scented - I believe that the scents are natural, but beware.  |

I read in a beauty magazine that interviewed Jewel (the singer) and she said it was one of her favourite spa/splurge products. So ever since then I have been interested to try the range too.
But is the range completely natural, like with no parabens, SLS.. the usual? |

I was on a UK forum site last night and the ingredients someone listed for the cleanser were as follows: (so how accurate they are I don't know for certain) but I wasn't overly enthused about the ingredients equaling the price as many others on this other forum also had noted...Hmmmmm...mineral oil, alcohol LANOLIN and alot of "BEN's"
Paraffinum Liquididum (mineral oil), Cetearyl Alcohol, PEG-30 Lanolin, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, Theobroma Cacao (cocoa butter), Aluminum Stearate, Chamomila Recutita (chamomile oil), Eugenia Caryophyllus (clove oil), Eucalyptus Globulus (eucalyptus oil), Humulus Lupulus (hops oil), Isopropyl Myristate, Phenoxyethanol, p-Chloro-m-Cresol, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Proplyparaben
Maybe one of you gals can verify this for us? Thanks for all the input I've really wanted to know more about this line before I "invest" in it....hope you all had a good weekend |

| I got some Eve Lom samples and the TLC cream smell like dr hauschkas rose day cream and has the same consistency. |

I caved and bought the Eve Lom cleanser a few years back after reading some MUA reviews. It's nice but I find that I don't reach for it much - I don't think I even got a 1/3 through it yet. I got sick and tired of having to wash my muslin cloths on a daily basis....
LUSH make a very similar cleanser as well - at least in texture and how it works. Not sure if ingredients are similar. I think it's called Ultrabland (or something similar to that). |

I have the Eve Lom cleanser and loved it whilst using it. The price is somewhat off putting but it lasts so much longer than you'd think. I used it in the evening and used an easier one in the morning, but once you've mastered the routine it doesn't seem like such a chore. I would definately repurchase but like Masby said the upkeep of the muslin cloths is annoying.
Her TLC cream is like a thicker version of the Dr H Rose Day Cream. I really like the Rescue Mask. The Kiss Mix lip balm though is like a more expensive less effective version of Carmex! |
