Sometimes trying a new skincare product starts with excitement. Or in my case, nerves. I have very sensitive skin and it’s not always fun to try a new product, especially on my face.
This one started because an old favorite stopped working for me.
I’d been using The Face Shop White Seed facial wash for years. Then recently, my skin started reacting to it. (You can read me wax poetic about that facial wash in the archives. Just type ‘white seed’ in the search bar.)
That is one of the particularly annoying things about sensitive skin. Something can live happily in your routine for years and then, apparently, your face calls a meeting and votes it out.
So I needed a replacement.
I’d already tried another Deoproce product, a body lotion or serum in the green caviar line, and had good results with it. When I saw their Green Caviar Facial Cleanser, I thought: why not?
I’m glad I did.
My skin has been very happy with it so far. No drama, no argument, just a cleanser doing what I wanted it to do.
After losing something I’d trusted for years, finding a replacement that my skin actually likes feels disproportionately satisfying.
Maybe that’s what I’m appreciating most lately.
Not products that promise miracles.
Just products my skin is willing to live with peacefully.
That feels pretty miraculous to me.
