They have achieved a loyal following of celebrities and industry insiders including Georgia May Jagger and Madonna. With a following such as this its not hard to see why you all love it too.
Here's what you thought:
"Best ever cleanser"
"I have used Eve Lom Cleanser for more than 20 years and there is nothing to touch it for the skin benefits it brings. I had spotty skin which was prone to sallowness during and after the menopause and the effects were magical. My daughter also tried it on her acne prone skin and now she is a confirmed fan and uses nothing else. It is expensive but 200ml will last me around six months so it is worth it. My skin is bright and clear and I am often asked what I use to keep it this way - my answer is always look to your cleansing routine and try Eve Lom."
"Highly recommend"
"I tried a sample of the Eve Lom Eye Cream and I loved it, so I have bought the jar. I have been using it religiously for four weeks now and I have been really impressed, my dark circles are definitely improved and fine lines seem a lot less noticeable - it is the first eye cream I have used that is actually making a visible difference. I would highly recommend this eye cream."
