Simply Miraculous


Does anyone else every get that feeling with a product, when you only really appreciate how bloomin' good it is once it's gone? I do, very often, in fact. Half the time, it's nostalgia playing tricks on me, and my skin can no-longer tolerate a once much-loved product... But the other half? That's how I know I'm onto a winner.

And that's just what's happened with the (much under hyped, in my opinion) Aurelia Miracle Cleanser. Ignoring the so, so, so high price point, it really does live up to its name. I picked mine up back in November and it's lasted me through until March, but sadly my little tub of goodness has run out. Will I be picking up another one? You betcha.


It's hard to say what makes this such a standout product for me. Yes, the packaging is beautiful and yes, it's well marketed; niche, but not too niche, with a probiotic formula to back up its claims. On paper, it sounds like a posh Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish... They both contain rosemary, eucalyptus and chamomile, and both feel like heavy moisturisers when worked into the skin. But there's something about the Aurelia offering that has a little more oompf.

I've already waxed lyrical about its moisturising effects, but there is a visible difference in my skin since I've had to stop using it. As much as I love my REN Clearcalm 3 Clarifying Clay Cleanser, it is very drying used over a long period of time, and the Miracle Cleanser rectified the issue perfectly, with out the claggy-ness of the Emma Hardie Amazing Face Lift and Sculpt Moringa Cleansing Balm. Aurelia also win out on having the shortest name - 10 points. 

My spot scars were less visible, the texture of my skin was noticeably better (even the Boyfriend noticed) and it just felt good to use. If you're looking for a new cleanser, this would certainly be worth a try. Go on, you know you want to.
