Cleansing is the favourite part of my routine, I have probably mentioned it countless times now, but as much as I love cleansing, I also love discovering new brands and their products. Angela Langford is not a brand I had come across until Sweet Cheeks came into my life.
With a wonderful story behind the brand and Angela, after being made redundant and not having access to good skincare, she decided to make her own. With a range which now spans, cleansers, balms, exfoliators, toners, serums and many more products, it is quite an achievement in just five years.
Sweet Cheeks is one of two products within the cleansing section by Angela Langford and it is described as being a balancing and cleansing facial wash is described as being a mild natural face wash that is gentle enough to be used every day. It will help clean your pores and rid your skin of pore-clogging blackheads.
"If you are prone to oily, combination or congested skin, this face wash is for you. This is your recipe for beautifully balanced & clean, clear skin."
I have combination skin which leaves me with an oily t-zone as well as dry patches of skin, so I like to use products which are balancing and hydrating as well as something that is gentle and not stripping, this product ticks all of those boxes.
Key ingredients
- Roses - helps to retain moisture, it is also cooling, soothing and it is a mild astringent. It is also know for its calming and cleansing properties.
- Cypress - known for its ability to clean and tighten the pores
- Papaya - helps stabilise oily skin, exfoliate dry patches and because it contains both vitamin A and C it helps to repair skin as well as well as to gently refresh.
- Orange Blossom - Not only helps to remove the dirt and dead cells of your skin, it also helps to tone and moisturise.
- Jojoba oil - helps to unclog pores as well as to lifts away dirt and grime.
Bringing all of these ingredients together, your skin is left looking clean, clear, fresh, rosy and radiant.
What I love about this cleanser is how it feels on my skin, lightweight in texture, it smells absolutely incredible with a mixture of Rose and Cypress being right there at the forefront of this product and its as awakening as it is soothing. After using, my skin doesn't feel tight or taut, it isn't stripped of its natural oils and nor does it leave me feeling as though I need to apply as much moisturiser as I can get my hands on. When it comes to removing makeup, whilst I am not wearing a full face of heavy makeup these days, I do wear mascara, tinted moisturiser, brow products and tinted balms plus SPF, this cleanser removes all of it within seconds.
If you are unsure which products you should be using on your skin, Angela has an option to get yourself a sample skincare pack, paying just the postage and once you have registered your details, Angela will pick three of her products she feels will best suit your needs. I love this idea and wish more brands would do it, skincare can sometimes be a minefield with us all assuming we are using what is right for us, when in some cases it is not.
All of the products within the Angela Langford range are not only cruelty-free but they are also all made here in the UK, by hand. Sweet Cheeks costs £18 for 100ml.
