Check out her all time favourite beauty product on repeat; it’s one that helps her wipe the slate clean.

The product I always use to the last pump is DHC Oil Cleanser (£27). I even turn the bottle over eke out the every last drop. It’s an oil cleanser that’s fantastic for removing make up at the end of a busy day.

I have been using this oil cleanser since 2018, I found it at Harvey Nichols. 

…and still going strong! We love the commitment.

I enjoy using this cleanser because it makes it a pleasure to take off all my camera ready makeup. It’s super easy because after a long day, I can’t be on the struggle bus. It’s part of my double cleanse routine and it melts make up off before I wash my face.

When I use this I feel like it soothes, removes the layers and keeps my skin moisturised. It feels like I am putting the moisture back into my skin. it’s important not to strip the skin dry when cleansing.

I use it the most during the winter months especially when all the heaters, cold winds and air conditioning take a toll on my skin.

My favourite way to use this oil cleanser is literally, a pump of oil in my palm, dry (meaning no water is added!) massage on my face and use it to take the makeup off. It removes eye make up and lipstick too. I always have a second soapy cleanse after which is made so much easier once I use this cleanser.
