Late this summer the UK-based skin care brand Amie launched in Canada, available exclusively at Shoppers Drug Mart. The brand features a range of affordable pH-balanced, dermatologically tested skin care products designed to keep the skin moisturized and balanced. Cruelty-free, the products are formulated with quality botanical extracts and contains no harsh chemicals like parabens, mineral oil, and sodium laureth sulphate. To read about a few of the brands best-sellers and my thoughts on each, click.......
Amie Naturally Kind Skin Care |
This is a gentle foaming cleanser with a sprinkling of scrubbing particles (blueberry seed) and vitamin E beads. Formulated with green apple and lemon extract, it deeply cleanses without drying out the skin. I like it as an everyday cleanser but I wish it was more scrubby.
Amie Radiant Dawn Exfoliating Daily Wash |
Formulated with white clay, lime butter, and organic peppermint, this is a very intense clay mask. I've tried a lot of clay masks before and none felt as strong as this one. The product cools, tingles, and kind of stings the skin quite a bit and I have pretty rough skin! The intensity might be too much for those with sensitive skin although I experienced no redness or sensitive after use. The mask leaves my skin feeling super refreshed and clean!
Amie Spring Clean Deep Cleansing Mask |
Loaded with Rosa Canina fruit oil, Rosa Centifolia flower extract, and Malva Sylvestris extract, this everyday moisturizer is lightweight and has a subtle floral scent. I have pretty oily skin so I like this better as a night moisturiser. It's a simple no-fuss product that does the job, my skin feels nice and hydrated after each use.
Amie Morning Light Hydrating Daily Moisturiser |
Now this is my kind of moisturizer! Made with organic rosehip, bilberry, natural plant sugars, and vitamin E, this lightweight moisturizer keeps my skin hydrated while delaying shine. Additionally, lemon fruit and orange blossom extracts help clarify the skin. This is sort of similar to the new Kiehl's Oil Eliminator Moisturizer (reviewed here). I've been using this quite a lot in the morning as it works really well under makeup to keep skin hydrated and matte.
Amie MOrning Dew Matte-Finish Moisturiser |
For such affordable prices, Amie offers some really great skin care products. My favorite is definitely the matte moisturizer and if you love an intense cooling face mask, then the clay mask is a great buy as well!
