Eve Lom update

I have to say, I am hooked on the Eve Lom cleanser. It really has made a positive difference in my skin. The biggest difference I've noticed is that all the fine lines around my right eye are gone. That's enough improvement to sell me. I think overall my skin looks more even in tone, more glowy, and smoother. I've streamlined my night routine too--the past couple weeks I've only been using Ponds cold cream+a swissper square to remove my makeup and then the Eve Lom cleanser to remove everything else. I haven't used my clarisonic in a few weeks--this routine seems to exfoliate enough. I've been using La Mer cream as a night moisturizer but I do find I can skip this step occasionally. My morning skin routine is still the same--cleanse with shu umera cleansing oil, exfoliate with either clinic 7 day scrub or aveeno scrub, and moisturize with either the original oil of olay or my travel size Eve Lom day moisturizer. I'm not too impressed with the Eve Lom day moisturizer, the TLC moisturizer or the emergency masque.

Eve Lom

I'm so thrilled to finally be testing out Eve Lom's skincare line. I ordered the Eve Lom travel kit from beauty.com. It contains the fabled cleansing cream, a muslin cloth, the TLC cream, a masque, the daily SPF 15 moisturizer, and a hand cream with SPF 10, plus a handy case that holds everything! Right now I am working the cleansing cream into my routine as a last step. My evening routine is as follows--Bear in mind I have very dry skin and I wear makeup just about every day. I like to make sure I get it all off! 1) apply Pond's cold cream 2) remove with a Swisspers cotton square 3) spray face with avene water and apply cetaphil gel cleanser 4) clarisonic with sensitive brush 5) spray face with avene water and apply avene micellar lotion with swisspers cooton square 6) Eve Lom cleansing cream 7) apply retin-A & cream de la mer We'll see how it goes. The cleanser seems v moisturizing so far. I also am enjoying the face lotion with SPF. It skins right in and feels very hydrating.
