Review: Origins Checks and Balances Face Wash

Monday, 17 September 2012



It's no secret that I am a skincare junkie. Ever since I started blogging, I feel more on the ball about what kind of skincare products are out there. MammaOrchid had used this face wash ages ago before she settled on her beloved Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish so I decided to give this a go.

The whole concept of this face wash is to essentially 'balance out' your skin. It facilitates both dry and oily areas of your face without cancelling any one of them out. I have been using this for over a month and I'm kind of undecided on it. It might just be me but after I wash this off, it leaves a dry and kind of 'sticky' feeling on my skin. Being a bit concerned, I hot footed it to MammaOrchid and she said it was normal. I toned and moisturised afterwards and my face was silky smooth (strange huh?).

I do really enjoy using this face wash and my skin is actually at its greatest. The only gripe I have is the feeling prior to toning and moisturising. Am I using it wrong?

I'm all about Origins products right now and I'm really impressed with the variety of products they offer for differing skin types. This face wash retails at £17.00 for 150ml which I have a feeling will last you a while as only a small amount is needed to create some nice froth!

Have you used this before? What's your favourite Origins product?
