Sensitive skin say YES to cucumbers!


A while ago, I heard about the brand 'Yes to carrots' whilst browsing online. Through looking into the brand further I came across their range 'Yes to cucumbers'. The range has received so much positive feedback that I found it impossible not to want to try it for myself. 

The brand uses all natural products such as Organic cucumbers, Green tea and Aloe Vera. The products are also Petroleum, SLS and Paraben free as well as Cruelty free. Basically a really cool organic company :) 

I received a £10 boots gift card at christmas, how I did not spend my gift card until now? I do not know. Anyway I finally decided to go into boots and spend it on the Yes to cucumbers products. The products I decided to try out were the Yes to cucumbers hypoallergenic facial towelettes and the Yes to cucumbers daily gel cleanser.



For starters how cute is the packaging of this product! Its just such a simple design yet it manages to really stand out on the shelves and looks so pretty. The first amazing thing about these facial wipes is the smell! Oh my god, it is so lovely! even before using the wipes it gives off a clean effect in itself. The only way I can describe it is fresh like cucumbers.. Ironic? The wipes are also incredibly soft, and even though they are so soft they still manage to easily remove any face make up with no hesitation. The only thing I have trouble with is removing mascara,  I always find it hard to remove mascara and find myself looking for a million different ways to get it completely off.

To sum these make up wipes up I REALLY like them. My skin feels fresh and clean after using them, There is also a kind off cold sense on my face its as if the wipes have been in a fridge before being opened, I find this really nice as it makes them feel just that extra bit fresh against skin.


Moving on ... At first I was slightly hesitant to buy this because it did not stand out to me as much as other products. However it was the last one on the shelf.. so I couldn't not buy it! My first opinion was once again the smell of it, wow. I can see Yes to cucumber becoming one of my favourite ranges just because I love the smell so much. The actual product is very watery, and in my hands it felt like it wasn't going to last very long before the whole thing was used up. However I was wrong, a little bit of this product goes a long way. 

I suffer from sensitive skin and so far this cleanser has worked perfect for me. It does not give me break outs it gives my skin a deep clean and leaves my face feeling super smooth. This product for me works best when I apply my moisturiser after use, the moisturiser I am currently using is Simple hydrating light moisturiser (another sensitive skin friendly product). I will defiantly be purchasing this cleanser again once I have ran out!
