Purity Skin Care - Review

Recently i was asked if i would like to review some skin care products. I jumped at the chance as my good friend WhenFlowersFall had the exact same products and i loved the idea of a nice skin product set that is light on this skin and unscented. I was free, however this is my 100% completely honest review. Their products are all Organic, Fragrance free and for sensitive skin. All of their products and more information can be found HERE 
Top row L-R Facial Wash, Conditioning Cleansing Lotion, Facial Exfoliator
Bottom row L-R Anti-Aging Moisturiser, Anti-Aging Serum and Mask, Regenerating Overnight Moisturiser. 

Purity's philosophy is Intelligent Ingredients, few in numbers and highly effective, a combination which results in beautiful skin and is kind to the earth.
Less is more in beauty.

They have 2 different ranges.  

The morning range, which consists of:
★ Face Wash - 4.99
I love this product, i think its my favourite. I use this mostly when iv been naughty and gone to bed with my make up on as i feel it completely removes any left over and freshens up my face. The exfoliating beads which are ground coconut shell aren't to hard or scratchy on the skin so your not in pain whilst using it. There is absolutely no scent to it and doesn't sting if you get it a little to close to your eyes. As it is an exfoliator i also use it on the tops of my arms where i have some strange little spotty rash which I'm always being told is a milk rash, however i call it chicken skin. I feel that it also helps remove that as well as those pesky blackheads.
★ Facial Exfoliator - 5.99 for 150ml
    This is a great everyday facial wash. If you aren't a fan of washing your face with products, sounds gross but i generally just use warm water as many products iv tried dries my skin out or leaves it feeling very tight and just generally awful. This product does leave it feeling a little tight (I'm not sure why my skin even does this, anyone else get it? Maybe its just the clean feeling haha.) The scent reminds me of swimming pools, and the smell of chlorine. To me, that's not a bad thing as i actually love that smell. It doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or irritate which is brilliant. I haven't used it every day as i like to give my skin a break/change but so far i am a huge fan of it and it is my usual go to facial wash, apart from plain warm water and a flannel. I really like the pop up style lid. Easily satisfied. 
★ Facial Moisturiser - 5.99 for 100ml
    I don't have this product, however if it lives up to the greatness of the other products I'm sure it would be great. Something i will be willing to pay for, along with all the other products. 
★ Anti-aging Moisturiser - 7.99 for 50ml
   The consistency is quite thick. The directions say to firmly apply a generous amount to your face and neck. I don't particularly think you need to apply a lot as a little goes a long way. It is slightly scented however it is a very natural, chemical free scent of Almonds. I don't feel that i need an anti aging skin product as i don't think i have any wrinkles or signs of aging on my face. I am only 22 after all. However, it is a very moisturising product and is great for dry skin patches. 
★ Anti Aging Mask and Serum - 8.99 for 50ml. 
   With its very light, gel like consistency its a great face mask. Its they type that hardens on your face and makes it feel tight, but not in a nasty get this of my face kind of way. Once washed off with a little warm water it leaves your skin feeling very soft. I applied a good amount to cover every millimetre of my face and neck and have hardly made a dent in the product. Once washed of my skin feels amazingly soft. 

The Evening Range, which consists of:
★ Conditioning Cleansing Lotion - 4.99 for 150 ml
   Again this product has the satisfying pop up lid. It says it is a make up remover, and i agree. This is one product i have never been convinced by when i have been browsing the shops for skin care as i have always seen it as a over hyped facial wash and in all honesty it is the first cleansing lotion i have tried so cant really compare it to anything iv used before. It is great at removing stubborn waterproof mascara and eyeliner. I don't like rubbing my eyes as they always end up really puffy the next day, which i usually have to do when I'm generally washing my face. There is no need with this, a couple of rubs with cotton wool or a soft flannel and its gone. Perfect. 
★ Regenerating Overnight Moisturiser - 7.99 for 50ml
  Personally I'm not a fan of applying moisturiser on a night as i don't like that greasy feeling before bed, however this isn't greasy at all. Its light and soaks into your skin fairly quickly leaving it feeling very soft and smooth. It reminds me of a body butter thickness. Again you can be very sparse with the product as a little goes a long way. It isnt a product i use every night.  

Overall, the products are great. I am not just saying this because i was sent them for free. I can thank Purity Skin Care enough. In all honesty, after reading my friends review i would have considered buying some, if not all the products myself. My skin feels a lot better for using these products, i rarely have dry skin and on the occasions i do i just pop a little of their Anti-Aging Moisturiser on and it disappears straight away.
