Foreue – Natural Skin Care (Handmade & Vegan)

Oatmeal, it’s not just for breakfast. Oatmeal Promise became part of my morning and evening beauty routine the last 2 days.

Upon receiving my foreue Oatmeal Promise (OP) vegan soap, I immediately smelled it. To me, a scent will either “put me off” or “put me on” toward the product. It smelled light and woody~very subtle. It’s a good start! Next, I looked at the color and felt the texture of the bar. Perhaps I’m more tactile than most people. I like holding my soap and feeling the bumps, lumps and smoothness. The bar wasn’t overly hard because it yielded to gentle pressure.

Now, for the lather. As I have found with most handmade vegan soap products, the lather is less. I admit I am accustomed to enorous amounts of bubbles; but this didn’t bother me much. The winning attribute is the way it made my skin feel during and after washing. I usually use a soft facial brush when I wash. The brush helped “generate” more bubbles. The OP felt good against my skin. I know the ingredients are pure and natural–but to feel it, or in this case, not feel the harshness, tightness, dryness–made all the difference, just like with other similar products I have used like oatmeal skin care creams and other oatmeal skin products. After rinsing and patting dry, my skin felt moisturized, exfoliated and refreshed. Now that’s the feeling of clean!
