Parkdale Butter Espresso Face Balm


Now here is a moisturiser which I just can not part with. Ok it's called the "Espresso Face Balm". But whatever it is; it is just simply divine. Yes it only has two ingredients: Soy Butter and Green Coffee Bean Essential Oil ( Cold-Pressed). Which means it can't get anymore natural than this!! Soy Butter which contains Vitamin E helps to regenerate skin cells and work as a skin healing property. Green Coffee Bean Extract contains antioxidants which helps to protect the skin from ageing and other harmful damages that may occur due to stress, environment and other factors.  Did I mention how lovely the smell is? Oh! yes, it smells like coco beans exactly; like "a shot of espresso". So intoxicating! Even after I ran out of this product the scent of it still lingers in my senses reminding me to replenish.  And I don't even drink coffee!! Anyway, in a nutshell this moisturiser/balm works great on normal to dry skin. Also great for mature skin or skin that needs hydration time to time. This is not going to be suitable for someone with acne prone or really oily skin. The texture of it is creamy balm like texture that almost melts on your skin as you apply it. Unless you have very dry skin I would not recommend applying heavy makeup after applying this moisturiser.  I usually just apply it by patting around my face at night before I go to bed but it can be worn day and/or night depending on one's skin type. So the dryer the skin the better use you will get out of this product. I usually suggest trying out a sample before you buy it. It is well priced at 120ml for $24.99 or 60ml for $14.99. If you get the 60ml jar it will last for about 3 months and if you get 120ml jar it will last for about six months.  And if you live in Canada then you are in luck because you can definitely have an easier purchase access since it is a Canadian brand. They do have all their products online at www.parkdalebutter.ca and at www.lovehusk.com. So here is to an amazing natural product that you will not have to feel guilty about if you are worried about slathering your face with chemicals.

Let me know if you have already tried this product and your thoughts on it. Would love to hear from you.
