MuLondon - Vegan, Cruelty Free, Handmade, Organic!!


Reviewing MuLondon - Organic Rose face wash and moisturiser

Let me begin by telling you a little bit about MuLondon. MuLondon products are hand-made in London. They use organic, food-grade ingredients (absolutely no chemicals), are registered with The Vegan Society and PETA, and are one of only 250 fully compliant members of the Campaign For Safe Cosmetics! 
Of course, all this means nothing if they don’t work! So, Boris kindly gave me a discount, and I purchased the Rose face wash. He threw in the Rose moisturiser as a treat! I’ve been using them now for about three weeks, once or twice a day.

They are quite small, so the fact that they look barely used means they’ll last me a while!! I use about this much of the face wash:

which is one press of the pump, and rub it into my slightly-damp face. It makes a nice thick foam, and smells really nice. Slightly rosy, and not chemically at all! Then I rinse my face, leave it a little damp but dry my hands, and get this much moisturiser:

The moisturisers are really concentrated, so this much is enough to warm between your hands a put on your face. I like to spend a little while massaging it in, as it’s easier to rub the warmer it gets. It’s not just for the face - it’s for a lot of dry skin conditions. I had a small patch of eczema on my elbow, and after using this once I checked the next morning to find it all gone!! 
My skin is dry, and tends to be uneven, with red patches. After only a week, I noticed a real difference in the condition of my skin. It didn’t feel tight after washing with this, and after moisturising it felt really clean and fresh. I am really, really impressed with this. Yesterday my sister complimented my skin, and I’ve started to go without foundation sometimes because I feel like my skin looks OK without it! Having said that, the moisturiser is a good base for makeup, in my experience.  This is what my face looks like about a minute after moisturising:

(Hey, I thought you were 24?! yeah... I look young, it's a gift and a curse.)

Even though I can still feel the moisturiser on my skin, it doesn’t look greasy. And, if you can see, there’s only a little redness to my cheeks, which before I would have been too self-conscious to show you.
I thoroughly recommend these products, not only because of their lack of chemicals and the company’s ethics, but because they actually work! The prices are fair as well, and because they’re concentrated, they last for ages.http://www.mulondon.com/ Have you tried MuLondon yet?
