Released last week, I got my hands on the new Lush 9 to 5 cleanser as soon as it hit the shops!

”Like Dolly says, 9 to 5 is quite the way to make a living. It can take its toll on the skin and leave you looking like she might without the cosmetic procedures. This is a gentle liquid cleanser made with almond oil, an extract of dove orchids and everlasting flower absolute. Orchids and everlasting flower soothe and clean the skin thoroughly with a mild antibacterial action, and almond gives you a silky smooth feeling. It’s great for taking off stubborn make-up and gives a fresh feeling after use.”

Its about time Lush brought out a heavy duty cleanser! I’ve been using this ever since I got it and I am very impressed. I wear alot of heavy foundation (ColorStay) aswell as high coverage powder so as you can imagine it does take some work to get it all off. I normally use Cliniques ‘Take The Day Off’ MU remover on a facial wipe, and it does do the job BUT it leaves my face feeling horrible and greasy =0/

The Lush cleanser is a great all rounder, I personally use this as a pre-cleanse MU remover and it leaves my face feeling baby bum soft! It seems to ‘melt’ my base & mascara, leaving my skin crystal clear and not a panda eye in sight. It smells beautiful,  like an Olay moisturiser and feels cooling on the skin so perfect for a morning cleanse routine.The thing I love most about this cleanser is the fact my face doesn’t feel so greasy and I *could* go without my usual face wash routine if in a hurry… It’s that good.

Highly recommended, very similar effects to the wonderful Estee Lauder ‘Take It Away‘ MU remover but with a much smaller price tag!
