Cleanse & Polish The Results

Cocoa flower

COCOA BUTTER
(Theobroma cacao)

Famous for its excellent emollient properties, we source our cocoa butter from West Africa, where fermented beans of the cocoa tree are roasted, cracked and ground to give a powdery solid called cocoa mass, from which cocoa butter is pressed.

Rosemary

ROSEMARY EXTRACT
(Rosmarinus officinalis)

Used for its antioxidant properties, we source our rosemary from Spain, where the extract is filtered from the needle-shaped leaves of the plant.

Chamomile

CHAMOMILE EXTRACT
(Anthemis nobilis)

Legendary for its skin-soothing properties, the flowers of this aromatic perennial are harvested in England in the summer, before the ingredient is solvent extracted from the fragrant flower.

Eucalyptus

EUCALYPTUS ESSENTIAL OIL
(Eucalyptus globulus)

Renowned for its purifying properties and invigorating aroma, we source our eucalyptus from China, where our essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves of the fast-growing eucalyptus tree.

Aqua (water), Caprylic/capric triglyceride, Theobroma cacao (cocoa) seed butter, Cetearyl alcohol, Cetyl esters, Cera alba (beeswax), Glycerin, Polysorbate 60, Sorbitan stearate, Eucalyptus globulus leaf oil, Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) leaf extract, Humulus lupulus (hops) extract, Chamomilla recutita (matricaria) flower extract, Propylene glycol, Phenoxyethanol, Panthenol, Benzoic acid, Dehydroacetic acid, Sorbitol, Limonene, Ethylhexylglycerin, Polyaminopropyl biguanide, Citric acid, Sodium hydroxide.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Repeat purchase An absolute British five star classic. It removes make-up, keeps my skin happy and healthy and is perfect for both morning and evening. It’s also reasonably priced for a wonderful formula. The scent is uplifting and makes me smile. I use it, my mum and my sister now use it- speaks for itself really. Liz Earle can become ‘forgotten about’ because it’s been there for so long, but this cleanser, without the dazzle dazzle, knocks it out of the park every time.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Where is the scent I have used all Liz Earle products for 20 years or more but my latest delivery has left me confused as my cleanse and polish pump has absolutely no scent to it at all. I used to love inhaling this cleanser as I applied it to my face but it has no smell or fragrance whatsoever. I really am confused as to what’s changed?
Date published: 2023-09-13
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cleanse and polish cleared up my skin I walked through boots for some essentials and a lady grabbed me and asked as she was quiet would I mind having a quick skincare review. I reluctantly made a purchase as thought it would be expensive. I bought 3 items for £36.00, I liked them all but the cleanse and polish will be something that I will keep using as it cleared milia spots on my forehead that I've tried everything for. Also the rest of my face looks much smoother and brighter

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cleanse & polish - Just right for all skin types Great product and if you’re a ‘face washer’ then I would highly recommend this product, have been using for years and love the majority of LE products. Easy to apply, then remove with a cloth and your face looks really clean without stripping it, like some do.

I have been using Liz Earle for some years(original) but bought c/p from qvc orange flower, it was a good offer but that’s where it ended. The result is a spotty complexion, and as I bought it to stock pile I am unable to return it

How long does a 200ml of Cleanse & Polish last?

Asked by: DaniK
Hi there, thanks for sending over a question. We would say approximately 6-8 weeks if you are using the product twice a day. I hope this helps! - The Liz Earle Beauty Co. Team

Is this product gluten free?

I see it contains hops. Is this gluten and wheat free?
Asked by: JulieD40
Thanks for getting in touch. While we can confirm which products include wheat as an intentional ingredient, without completing a full assessment of the entire supply chain we are unable to offer a full list of products that are free from wheat (so our products may not be suitable for someone with coeliac disease, for example, depending on how serious their allergy is). As a common sense precaution we would always recommend a 24 hour patch test is conducted prior to the first use of any new skincare product. I hope this information helps - The Liz Earle Naturally Active Team

Do you have to use the cloth to remove the product?

Can I use large cotton pads run under hot water to remove instead of the reusable cloth?
Asked by: Newgirl
Thanks for getting in touch. For best results, we would recommend that your use our Cleanse & Polish with the Pure Cotton Cloth, as the cloth will gently buff the skin, and helps keep your pores clean and clear. I hope this information helps - The Liz Earle Beauty Co. Team

Can you take the cleanser off with the skin tonic or do you advise water first?

For example if you have had a skin peel and should refrain from using water.
Asked by: Wallis
For best results we would advise gently removing our Cleanse & Polish with water and the pure cotton cloth. However, if you are unable to use water for any reason then you may wish to try using our Instant Boost Skin Tonic as a temporary alternative. We hope this helps. The Liz Earle Beauty Co. Team

How long would a 30ml (travel size) tube of cleanse and polish last?

I'm going away for 10 days and looking to travel light. Assuming I only used it once a day does anyone have any idea how many uses I could get out of a 30ml tube of cleanse and polish?
Asked by: JBar
I've found it contains enough for two weeks, using it twice a day. If you're only using it once a day for ten days, you'll certainly have plenty left over.
