Hallelujah, Eve Lom lands at last!
News of the availability of Eve Lom’s range of killer, high performance skincare products Down Under is definitely a cause for celebration. The newest brand to land at Mecca Cosmetica, the collection is the creation of one of the most respected and sought-after beauty professionals alive today, Eve Lom. Born in Czechoslovakia, Eve met the renowned skin specialist Georgette Klinger in Hollywood in the early 1980s and began her career as a facialist. She subsequently relocated to London where she studied anatomy, nutrition and massage techniques, expanding her repertoire to also include acupuncture after time training with the masters in China. In 1984, the first Eve Lom salon opened in London, and not longer after her range began to evolve following the media frenzy that surrounded the release of her cult Cleanser, which Vogue called "probably the best cleanser in the world". Fast forward to 2010 and the products that make up the pared-down regime Eve recommends are available here, which is dreadfully exciting for beauty fans the length and breadth of New Zealand and Australia.
My first foray into the world of Eve Lom is via a pot of her Kiss Mix, which I’m ploughing my way through in a rather speedy fashion. I haven't yet had the pleasure of using that very special cleanser, but if this puppy is anything to go on, it will live up to the hype and more. Kiss Mix is a richly moisturising pot of goodness that tends to chapped and dry lips, and also includes the natural sunscreen Zinc Oxide to protect lips from UV rays, and tingling menthol for an added pick-me-up. With its moisturising and healing ingredients, Kiss Mix is an absolute must for everybody, including the blokes. It is also a year-round product as it keeps lips moisturised and protected from UV rays in summer and biting winds in winter. It’s is great to use with lipstick to add shine to your lips or on its own as a moisturising base, and is a brand new handbag essential in my universe. Get thee a pot ASAP.
