KRÈME DE LA KRÈME: SUNDAY RILEY CERAMIC SLIP CLAY CLEANSER
Sunday Riley cermaic slip clay cleanser is the reason I fell in love with the Sunday Riley brand . I have to be honest, not all their products are amazing but this is one of the best products in their line based on personal experience.
I can recall a few times in the past four years that I reached for this product to calm or correct a skin irritation. Most recently, in my eagerness to test Dr dennis Gross C+ Collagen brighten & Firm Eye cream, I had a very visible reaction to the product around my eyes. To be fair, Dr Dennis Gross has a great skincare line but this product did not work for my sensitive skin.
Good thing I purchased from Sephora so they were nice enough to exchange the product for my go to Sunday Riley. I went home, adjusted my routine and literally in a couple days, the spots around my eyes started to faded away and my skin was back to normal in no time.
