❤ Bubble and Bee Rosehip and Honey Face Wash ❤

You all know that I love my Bubble and Bee Pineapple Enzyme wash.  I actually tried the Rosehip and Honey first and didn’t love it so much.  I decided to review it anyway though, since I think it may work well for me in the winter and also for any of my beauties out there with extremely dry and sensitive skin.  The good: it is extremely gentle and moisturizing, lathers a little bit and you need only a small amount.  It smells simple like oatmeal and honey. 

The bad: I thought I would need the extra moisture that this wash provided, however, it just didn’t work quite right with my skin and I got a few blemishes as a result.  I would recommend this wash for very dry, very sensitive and aging skin.  It leaves a moisturizing film after using that would be wonderful for someone with the aforementioned skin issues.  Since it is getting warmer, these days I am drier on my cheeks and a bit oiler in my t-zone, which is a pretty normal combo. Since I have almost 3/4 of this bottle left, I fully intend on trying it again in the winter months when I suffer from tight, dry skin as a result of cold weather and depleted humidity from running the furnace constantly.  I’ll do a little update on it then.  For now, I think the Bubble and Bee website is extremely accurate in describing the usage and skin types their three face washes are design for.  The third is a cucumber based wash for oily and acne prone skin.  If in doubt as to which one to pick, just email their customer service department, they will get back to you usually in a few hours.

Peace, Love and Beauty

❤ Bubble and Bee Pineapple Enzyme Face Wash ❤

If you have been reading my blog you know I love Bubble and Bee for their great products, ingredient cleanliness, excellent customer service and informative website and owner, Stephanie.  When I ran out of my old standby face wash: Philosophy’s Purity Made Simple.  It was time to search out something new.  I found what I was looking for in Bubble and Bees Pineapple Enzyme Face Wash. 

I love that it foams and that you only need the teeniest bit to get a really good lather.  It removes all traces of makeup and smells heavenly like tropical fruit and pineapples.  It cleans really well without leaving any of that tight dry feeling that I would actually get quite often with the Philosophy wash.  You can always tell if a facewash is right for you by noting the moisture of your skin right after washing.  Tight or dry? You need something that is more gentle and moisturizing.  Greasy or shiny within the hour? You may need something with a little more gentle cleaning powder. 

Even better than their edible scent, those pineapple enzymes act as a gentle chemical exfoliant.  So your skin is rosy and dewy each time you wash.  With daily use I have noticed my skin looks fresher and my t-zone pores are more refined.  I use this with a sonic facial brush, if you haven’t tried one, I highly, highly recommend getting one.  I will review the one I have been using on the blog soon.  For all you true purists, I know it is pretty inorganic to use a battery operated brush when you can use your hands to clean your face...... but after using one for the last few months I would not give mine up!

Even though I love wearing makeup, I want to be able to show off my skin without anything on it with confidence.  These days I am doing that regularly. (And getting compliments while doing it, which is just makes you feel good, doesn’t it?)  For most days, just a little under eye concealer and some bronzer for color and my face is prepped for the fun stuff! 

Always Bee Fabulous
