A Jojoba Oil

The founder of MV Organics, Sharon McGlinchey, recently popped into the C.B. office on a quick visit from Australia and we all took the chance to quiz her about the range (more to follow from Olivia Inge there). The more I learn about MV, the more I adore the range and all who sail in her.
Old fashioned – in a good way – in both its thinking and small-batch quality of production, they represent a gold standard of natural skincare. There’s a cleanser utopia for sensitive skin
called Gentle Cream Cleanser, less irritating than finding a twenty in an old jacket. But the product that wins Multitasking Master is the Jojoba Oil. People write into us all the time asking for a make up remover that won’t irritate, whilst actually getting the make up off. Eyes right >>
Take two cotton pads, wet them in hot water and squeeze them out so there is no excess moisture. Open the pad out again, draw a line (about 3 drops) of Jojoba oil across the centre and hold the pad against your eye. Let the oil sink into the surface make up and then gently wipe it all off. This not only melts your make up and cleans the area, Jojoba has one of the closest chemical make ups to your skin’s own sebum, it moisturises and protects the area too.

MV Organic Skincare prices range from £26 for the Pure Jojoba Oil to £72 for the travel Essentials. The way your skin blooms and the aromatic experience, especially with steam cleansing is sublime. Be warned, MV Organics is addictive. alexia inge
