BEST CLEAN™ CREAM CLEANSERS & EDITOR'S CHOICE AWARD
"The Editor's Choice Award is for the Vanessa Megan AEON Azure Regenerative Creme & the Petitgrain pH Cream Cleanser. I had high expectations when I first tried the AEON Azure Regenerative Creme & I wasn't disappointed, I was impressed. When I used this as a night cream for the first time, the same night as another reviewer, the next morning we both commented on the same incredible results. It really has the WOW factor, my skin was so hydrated & full looking, the fine lines completely smoothed over & any signs of stress resolved. I can't tell you how confident I felt, talk about overnight facial rejuvenation. Combined with using the cream cleanser, one of my favourite products because it is so hydrating whilst removing grime & balancing the skin, these two products give your skin a salon experience at home. I have tried the AEON Azure Creme from time to time & had the same results each morning, waking up to amazing smooth skin at 40-something is like turning 35! It comes with a Gua Sha facial massage stone which feels cool & helps the ingredients to absorb deeper into the skin, it also helps to increase circulation to the skin which is essential for skin repair & firmness. Using the Gua Sha facial tool is also very calming & restorative, the cool stone is perfect for morning eyes, for reducing puffiness. The key ingredients make this cream, it contains Blue Butterfly Pea Flower Extract, Hibiscus Oligopeptide & Colloidal Gold to name just a few." - Amina Kitching, Editor, Organic Beauty Award.
Organic Beauty Skincare Winners: Autumn-Winter 2021
CREAM CLEANSERS Bronze Award
Winner of the Bronze Award AW21 best cream cleanser, this is an instant favourite in my house! Ideal for all skin types, the feedback on this cleanser was fantastic, the packaging is stunning & the ingredients 100% Natural & 87% Organic which I LOVE completely. It cleanses the skin perfectly, even eye makeup is removed effortlessly. I wet a face washer & then use a small amount of the cleanser to gently dissolve my makeup, rinse & repeat. This cleanser is so hydrating, my skin is never dry after using it & it smells beautiful & fresh, Petitgrain & May Chang essential oils help to remove excess oils from the skin, balancing & refining the skin. Highly recommended for dry skin & oily-acne prone skin alike.

CLEANSER - Finalist
"This was my favourite product to use! It’s an absolutely beautiful cleanser. Feels luxurious, the packaging is nice to look at and it doesn’t strip the skin of its natural oils. Very hydrating! It’s good to see that Vanessa Megan works with suppliers who share values with their own and donates to women’s domestic violence charity. I love that."

CLEANSER / EXFOLIATOR- finalist
