Brianne's Top 3 Products:
● Ethique Pinkalicious: It’s been a few years since we launched Pinkalicious as a limited edition bar for our birthday, it was so popular that it sold out almost instantly! So it’s not surprised, much to my delight, that it soon joined our range full time. With pink grapefruit and vanilla, it’s hard to resist!
● Ethique Superstar: I’m embracing the double cleanse method at the moment, so I kick off my nightly routine with our solid oil cleanser, Superstar. It’s amazing at removing your ’day", be it makeup, dirt or grease, it’s also super relaxing! I then follow up with our Bliss Bar. Double cleansing is really good if you wear makeup during the day as it ensures that your face is thoroughly cleansed.
● Ethique Too Delicious: I typically don’t use conditioner but once a month I love to do a deep condition and I do this with our super-hydrating conditioner, Too Delicious, it’s one of our newest bars, but already it’s one of our most raved about.
