Bogavia Essential Facial Cleanser


Hi Lovelies!  In my heathy lifestyle quest I've tried to go as organic as possible, both with what I put into and onto my body. Food is much easier for me than skin care and body care, as my skin is finicky and sensitive. On a recent trip to Tony Walker in Williamsville, NY looking at Diptyque candles I happened across this line of products called Bogavia. The ingredients are all natural and organic, I can pronounce everything that is in these products.  The main ingredient is organic aloe vera which has many beauty uses, besides just healing a burn like we al know it for. It helps to tighten and repair the skin, remove toxins, and softens and smooths the skin surface. Bogavia products are paraben free, do not have SLS, mineral oil, chemical preservatives or artificial fragrances which can all irritate the skin. The products are also Vegan, which is hard to find. 

I decided to start easy with my extremely touchy skin, so I picked up the face wash and hand cream. The face wash is much more liquidy than I was expecting, it actually reminds me of philosophy Purity Made Simple face wash. Both are the same color and texture. I figured out quite early on to NOT open the tube with the hole facing downwards, otherwise I wasted a lot of product from it running out of the tube and down the drain!  I must say, I LOVE, this wash. It thoroughly cleans my face both with and without using my clarisonic Mia. It is creamy and spreads easily over the skin. I use circular motions to work it into my skin and then rinse with a washcloth and water. My skin is left clean, but not dry feeling at all. It is comfortable and soft. And the best part is that my sensitive, finicky skin loves this product. I have not broken out and my skin is smoother and has a better texture and tone. The next products I want to try are the Essential Facial Moisturizer and the Essential Night Cream, since I've had such good results with the face wash. Check them out at www.bogavia.com
