GRIFFIN & ROW

Naturally Effective Skincare

Cleanse Review!

http://www.griffinandrow.com

Griffin + Row Cleanse - $25.00

Cleansing my face in the morning is one of the top 5 things I do as soon as I wake up!

I am one of the people who are never fully awake or alert until I have splashed my face with water

(I like it as cold as I can get it for a refreshing hit!) and given it a good old cleanse!

Once I have slashed my face a few times with ice cold water, I then get the water to a little more than

luke warm temperature to get those pores opening back up and I am ready to cleanse the night of

dead skin cells and dirt build up down the drain.

Because I am so passionate about beauty and skincare and being a blogger I am regularly trying out

new products including facial cleaners and at the moment I am using this beautiful product called

'Cleanse' by Griffin + Row.

Griffin + Row are an Australian, cruelty free and all natural skincare brand who care about the earth,

with all of their packaging being completely recyclable and use only the necessary natural ingredients

needed for each of their products. There are no parabens, harmful chemicals, artificial colouring or

fragrances.

This particular product like I mentioned is all natural, yet still a highly effective cleanser suitable for

all skin types. I have normal skin which is neither sensitive or dry. However does get the occasional

spot here and there with large pores and fine lines. This product no only works to deeply cleanse your

face leaving it feeling like new again, it is also a wonder worker at removing makeup at the end of the day!

As you can see from the back of my hand below, this cleanser does not lather up into a big white

fluffy ball like some cleansers do and this small pea size amount it all you need to use each time! This is because it does not contain the synthetic ingredients whic are put purely into these other products

simply to create this effect. A lot of times these can be irritating to the skin and cause a rash or

itching.

This product has the most gorgeous kind of natural scent about it. It is like deeply taking in the scent

of a bunch of bush roses. With ingredients including - Vitamin E, Grapefruit Seed Extract, Bergamont

Oil, Aloe Vera Leaf Juice, Sweet Orange, Lavender and Pink Grapefruit Oils, it is no wonder this

product has me looking forward to my every cleanse both morning and night! The scent alone will

captivate you!

Griffin + Row products can be purchased directly online from their official website.

They also ship internationally from Australia!

Have you tried this natural Aussie skincare brand?

2015 SKINCARE ROUTINE

~ New Year ~

New Skincare Routine!

Paula's Choice

RESIST Perfectly Balanced Foaming Cleanser

Cleanser for Normal/Oily/Combination Skin!

RRP: $30.00 (190ml)

---------------------------------------------------

To begin with I will just let your know straight off the bat one of the most convenient aspects

of this product which I enjoyed the most and that is that this Foaming Cleanser not only

cleanses your skin without stripping it of it's natural oils and pH balance, it also removes makeup!

I usually remove my makeup before cleansing, however with this product I get to skin a step and

save a bit of time, oh so precious time! :) (Where does it all go anyway?!)

This generous size pump bottle contains a creamy, white liquid which quickly lathers into a

non scented foam when applied to your face which should be dampened with luke warm water

prior to activate the product and open up the pores for best results whilst cleansing.

I found this product very easy to use and very effective when followed up with the Pore-

Refining Treatment and Daily Mattifying Fluid.

My skin has remained clear and looking smoother, more radiant and a whole lot less tired than

it really is!

Paula's Choice

RESIST Daily Pore-Refining Treatment

2% BHA

Exfoliant for Normal/Oily/Combination Skin!

RRP: $38.00 (88ml)

---------------------------------------------------

This is a very interesting exfoliating product because not only do you use it more like you would

a toner. It also does not contain any kind of visible exfoliant beads or scrub!

I have always struggled with the size of the pores on my face and have tried many products promising to diminish them. Some have worked well while many haven't. This product actually does

wonders for reducing and tightening my pores, plus it also aids in the anti-ageing aspect of my skin

as well as making the whole surface feel smoother and look youthful again!

I am amazed that such a strong working product as this is actually fragrance free!

Paula's Choice products also do not believe in animal testing which I am more than happy to

help support!

So then how do you actually use this product?

As I mentioned earlier. You simply do as you would with a facial toner. (I love toner btw, they

are great for tightening pores and clearing acne!) Simply take a cotton ball, apply some of the

Daily Pore-Refining Treatment to it and swipe all over the face and neck. This stuff is gentle enough

to use around your eyes, but not over them of course or you risk getting product into your eyes which

is never a good thing! Make sure your skin is clean before using and it is recommended to follow up

and apply your favourite moisturiser afterwards before applying makeup.

Taking this extra step into my new year's skincare routine I believe has really been worth while

in nurturing my skin into it's early 30's!

Paula's Choice

RESIST Youth-Extending Daily Mattifying Fluid

SPF 15

Moisturiser for Normal/Oily/Combination Skin!

RRP: $35.00 (60ml)

---------------------------------------------------

Being Summer in QLD, it is imperative to protect your skin from the harmful sun's UV rays daily!

I have always been sun concious and rarely ever suffer from sunburn. I once burnt quite badly when

I was about 14-15 and living in Cairns, the sun was as you would expect in TNQ, completely

unforgiving! So I in turn learnt my lesson the hard way as it make me feel quite physically ill

and I never let myself burn like that ever again!

Products such as this which contain some kind of SPF in them are quite common how a days

and so really there is no excuse not to slip, slop, slap when it is so easy.

This product is easily applied after cleansing and toning and before makeup and absorbs quickly

without leaving a greasy residue. I appreciate the mattyfying effect as even though I classify my

skin as being 'normal', it can still gain that a little more than a 'dewy' effect by the end of a long, hot,

Summer's day! I have found my skin to remain looking matte and fresh throughout the day when

I've applied this in the morning. So it is quite amazing that it moisturises and protects your skin

from the sun whilst still not feeling heavy or slick!

Fragrance free and non irritable, this whole Paula's Choice RESIST skincare range helps to

prevent the visible signs of aging and minimise pore appearance. Two of my top skincare

concerns sorted!

tailored to your skin type and concerns.
