Long time no blog, I know, but I’m excited to be back today with a review
of two new-to-me Batty’s Bath products. Batty’s Bath,
a Canadian company based in London, Ontario, has quite the extensive product range and is quickly becoming one of my
favourite Canadian skincare brands. The company focuses
on creating effective natural and cruelty-free products that really deliver on their promises. Batty’s Bath first became known to me through their successes working with acne-prone skin, but I was especially intrigued to
see what the company could do for sensitive skin when they launched their new Calendula Line last year. The Calendula range was specifically developed for an employee with challenging reactive skin and rosacea, and a lot of time and care went into formulating these products.
I’ve been trialing two of the three main products in the Calendula Line
and, after incorporating them into my routine over the last 2+ months, I feel confident saying that both are uber-gentle, soothing products, perfect not
only for delicate, reactive, and sensitive skin, but also for just about anyone
during this transitional time of year heading into the colder, dryer
fall/winter months. Keep reading for

Calendula & Cucumber Cleanser ($34.95 for 5 oz)
The Calendula & Cucumber Cleanser* is a cream cleanser with a
true lotion consistency. It feels luxe
and is extra soft to massage onto the skin.
Batty’s Bath describes the cleanser as a one-step double cleanse,
combining an oil cleanser and cream cleanser into one cohesive step. I agree, in that you can definitely
use this product as your only cleanser – no double cleansing necessary – but since I legitimately enjoy the process of double cleansing, it hasn’t completely
eliminated that from my life. For no makeup
days or days when I’m only wearing face makeup, I will often cleanse with just the
once with the Calendula & Cucumber Facial Cleanser, but for eye makeup, I
do still prefer pairing it with an oil cleanse step or dedicated makeup
remover.
