Heads Up Warning For Emma Hardie Moringa Balm Lovers

[bags]

Seems from the Morning Show airing today the beauty pick of the month Moringa Balm is down to the last 500 available, with it's next airing at 4pm.
Emma made a jumping the gun comment saying it was now limited stock, on advanced order.
So I guess when it sells out, there could be a possibility of advanced order.

I'll be self sacrificing and not order any.

I'd prefer a series of OTOs for the remainder of the month or hot picks with free P&P.

What will they do for the rest of the month then?
I can only guess another product in her line or ....?
Seeing as they have just adopted this product of the month lark, OTO & such won't cut it.

I think the gardening product of the month has sold out, so don't know what they are doing about that, if that is on advance order or not.

the hanging baskets as gardening product of the month is on advanced orders so this might be but if not i dont think they will replace it until they start a new one next month

Thanks, but after all the hoo-haw, I will be returning my jar of Moringa Balm - little bumps all over my skin makes me think I am allergic to something in there! Oh well, back to the Old Faithfuls. When will I learn to be happy with what I have :mysmilie_518:and not reach for the :star:

Maybe I am missing something here but I have watched a bit of the presentation and read the blurb on the website. This stuff you can use as a cleanser and an overnight balm plus it can be dabbed on dry bits (the mind boggles). AY, Fiona (Decleor) etc always go on about separate cleansers/toners etc so how can something that cleanses be a moisturising balm as well. Anyway won't be buying. GOt last month's beauty pick (Sarah Chapman) and although it feels nice when I put it on, really do not know what all the fuss is about. Haven't really noticed any difference in my skin.

I was really disappointed with it and am sending mine back. I really prefer LE C&P for my skin. Using the product is enjoyable but unless I get a moisturizer straight on my skin feels tight.
Was worth a try as I love using new products but I always end up returning to LE!

I won't be touching it.Have gone from LE to Burts Bees.......and loving it!!!

Well Olive Oil does exactly that.
I've been using Evoo Extra Virgin Olive Oil recently because of sensitivity and I'm bowled over by it. It cleanses, moisturises and soothes dry patches. Add a handful of salt or castor sugar and you've got a scrub as well.
No additives - no parabens, no silicones, no perfumes - pure oil.

AY, Fiona (Decleor) etc always go on about separate cleansers/toners etc

Well, they would, wouldn't they. More products, more money in the coffers.

When my skin went doolally a couple of years back I was at the end of my tether. Even E45 cream used to make my skin sting. I ended up only able to use Double Base ... funny old cream you get from the chemist ... on my skin. And I used it to cleanse and moisturise. It was cheap as chip fat and although it took forever to sink in as a moisturiser it was a blinking good cleanser. Also worked as a body cream. The other thing I could use as a moisturiser as my skin got better was sudocrem. Especially good as the doolallyness was caused by acne.

But I survived for about a year just using the Double Base as a moisturiser and cleanser. But it was about £10 for 500ml.

I see it's showing now as wait list

I had to use dermol 500 lotion and other various ezczema lotions and potions from the GP for a good few months on my face and they all pretty much double up as cleansers and moisturisers. Dermol was OK, quite a light lotion though so good for cleansing but not so great for moisturising puritic skin.

The hydramols and epaderm types things can, in some formats, be used for cleansing and moisturising.

I'm back to cosmetic skincare now (for now) and glad to not have to use them just now but I have a big stockpile. The hospital allergy clinic also gave me lots of samples to try, they must get pharmaceutical companies adsking them to give their products out so if patients try them and like them they can ask for them on prescription or purchase them in a shop if available over the counter.

I must say the moringa balm is interesting because it has coconut surfactants in doesn't it? so it turns into a milk when mixed with water - that to me would be the only thing that would make me hesitant about leaving it on as a moisturiser, well that and I wouldn't buy it anyway due to it being full of lovely but scary for me essential oils

 

[donna255]

seems you can buy pure moringa oil quite cheaply on its own. Not sure what grade it is? Read on boards people buying and mixing with other products and creating their own version.

Hey, I want to grow moringa tree in my New Jersey based home plant. It’s new as there is no one who is growing moringa tree in their own gardens. I would like to know the whole procedure from buying seed to reaping plant and how to take care of moringa tree so it will grow wisely.
