Sweet Creek HerbalCare just happens to be one of my favorite shops on Etsy. I have found many
delights in the many different products offered in the shop, and still have much to explore! Up for review here today is the Facial Butter Bar!
{ingredients}
Let's start off with
the ingredients, since it is what lead me to my purchase!
Ingredients include prime pressed cocoa butter,
emu oil, castor oil.
{the product}
"This is a face wash without soap. Facial butter
bars can be used conveniently to wash your face without soap or detergents in
the shower, at the sink, even on the go with a few tissues about. Oils and
butters are a great cleanser but are not water soluble. In the shower or at the
sink, just rinse off the excess with warm water. It leaves your facial skin so
soft and gently cleansed. Or, on the go, wipe off the excess with a couple of
tissues. Your skin will glow and make you look and feel refreshed no matter how
tired you are."
After finding this
butter bar cleanser, I was very curious. I thought that it might be similar to
the Oil Cleansing Method, which has been something I've been wondering about.
But not wanting to buy a bunch of oils and doing my own mixings, I was glad that
one of my favorite shops had a way I could get a bit of a sample of this
cleansing method.
But to be honest, I
haven't experimented with it as my sole method of cleansing my face. I will
still use one of my lovely bars of soaps and then use the butter bar, as more
of a moisturizer I suppose. After washing my face, I will rub the bar all over
my hands and then massage the butter and oils onto my face. I then go about my
other shower business and go back to it a bit later and massage some more and
gently wipe the excess off with a warm washcloth.
When I get out of
the shower, my face feels amazingly soft! The first time I used it, I was
completely shocked by how completely moisturized my face was and everything was
just so smooth and happy. Since I started using this bar, I've not had to use
as much moisturizer. Some days I don't even have to use any!
I do not use this
everyday. I use the butter bar around 2-3 times a week. And the bar has been
lasting quite awhile now - I've had it for 4 months and have only used half of
it so far!
{conclusion}
The Facial Butter
Bar from Sweet Creek HerbalCare is fabulous all around. It offers unbeatable
moisturization in an extremely long lasting bar. My face is happy and never
feels greasy. For me, this is one of those Holy Grail items. Obviously, I would
recommend that you try it!
