I'm confused, is double cleansing good or bad?
Completely depends on you and your skin. For me it’s vital for people with really dry skin or psoriasis it might do more harm than good. I do it at night but not in the morning. I remove my makeup& SPF with a oil or balm cleanser then use a second cleanser to clean my skin (I rotate a couple, a hydrating one and a deep cleansing one)

Thanks. I DC too, funny since I've started a few years back I rarely break out. I'll probably get a massive boil now for saying this. I was trying to work out the ambiguity around the doctors post.
The one thing I'll be grateful to Caroline for is flannels and cleansers, I'm nearly too embarrassed to admit this but my makeup removal before her involved baby wipes. 😬

I wouldn’t want Ava to babysit for me. Everything about her says she’d be on her phone while the kids are burning the house down.

Those poor freaks haven't a chance, do they? People can choose to do want they want with their money but I hope a finance option isn't included this time. I remember Caroline saying skincare should never go on credit cards, funny how she's changed her opinion.

Everyone get your £300 at the ready
Imagine if you were crazy enough to buy each of these kits that's she's peddled over the last year ....that's well over £1000 per year on skincare
now I love my skin care ( favourites are Clarins and beauty Pie- although currently trying Sunday Riley vit C/glow) but there's no way I can justify spending so much especially when there's only so much moisturiser/ serum I can slap on my face at one time!
ETA its just shameless consumerism....when I see the cult showing their bathroom cabinets stacked to the rafters with 'essential' skincare which they probably will never get through, but want validation from the freaks I shake my head in disbelief

I bet there will be people who have all the kits so far - can’t imagine how many products that they own that just sit in a shelf getting dusty.🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

It's the breathless atmosphere she cultivates (emphasis on the cult)

This! Exactly this! I did a big clean and clear out at the beginning of January, I got rid of lots of products I had bought on the freaks/Caroline's recommendation. A lot had been used once or twice, didn't suit my skin and had I'm ashamed to say a layer of dust. Nobody dusts skincare!
I think I filled a bag for life with products, it was so heavy I could barely lift it. Really shameful.

You are not the only to have been sucked in with all the skin care recommendations - I for one also have been and I also have a massive collection of skincare just sat getting dusty which will be used before I make any more purchases ( exception being if I run out of a product which is something i use on a daily basis). I have about 12 different cleansers sat in the bathroom ( this number is not a joke btw 🥴) . Who needs this amount of cleanser? I am a mug for getting sucked into the Hirons marketing whirlwind.

Back end of last year I sold loads of my skincare that I had hoarded and knew I would not use and did not need. I made £728. bloody madness. I now have a few things spare that I know I will use and I am not buying anything else. I have been getting into Beauty Pie so have some of their stuff to use.

Gosh I wish I had thought about selling mine, but I believed you couldn’t donate or sell skincare that has been used (plus use by dates.) A lot of my stuff was the ordinary and GOW but I must have had every vit c and retinol on the market, I'm yet to discover any that don't give me a reaction. The only vit c product I can get away with is that super facialist cleanser which I love and lasts forever.
Don't get me wrong I've had hits from recommendations but a hell of a lot more misses.

Sorry I just casually watch her because I like her roundups and empties as background listening and this has probably been addressed before but what’s the story with the kits? Are they seasonal because the products in them are to help with a particular season? (Oily in summer, dry in winter etc) or are they just called the X kit because it comes out then? Surely nobody needs to change up their skincare that often.

They are seasonal ( in that people need to adapt their routine based on the season) and no they don’t. It’s just the Hirons peddling products.

Mine had all been bought last year and not even used. I feel free from the consumerism bug that had gripped me from 2018 onwards. I have not only purged this in my beauty life but life in general and it is so bloody brilliant.

The madness begins again....
Some of the comments.... 'thank you for doing this at this time' - WTAF. She is selling the kit not giving it away FFS

I've bought the kits because they have contained items I was interested to try or already loved and they were a good saving. I've also used some kit items as part of a gift. I've still got too much skincare but it's better than my make up buying phase as I do get through skincare. I don't over use but have a big face and am consistent with my routines. I am also good at only having one or two of each item open at a time and work through them until I've finished.

I've only bought one skincare item this year which was my fave cream cleanser which I use before my NuFace as most of my cleansers are oil based.

I know she "specialises" in skincare blogging but imagine watching watching 23 year old American Poet Laureate, Amanda Gorman, reciting a poem about how important it is for BIPOC women to see Kamala Harris take her position as VP and only remarking on her skin. What a bimbo.

Yeah I thought this was terribly shallow, too. But then Sali Hughes only remarked how "fit" the Obamas were...
