Clean Beauty Judge, Marina Baldi’s Top Three Facial Cleansers for Sensitive Skin
Marina Baldi is giving us the inside scoop about her favourite facial cleansers for rosacea-prone, sensitive skinMarina Baldi is a Beauty Blogger and clean beauty advocate who is deeply in love with organic cosmetics that respect the environment. Florence-based Marina knows something about natural living, wellness and living a balanced and beautiful life. Marina was honoured to be chosen as one of 146 Clean Beauty Awards Judges and was so pleased to try out brands she otherwise would never have discovered.
When the Clean Beauty Award judges are asked to choose their top three favourite products, they make their selections because of a personal connection to the brand ethos, values packaging and what works best for their skin type or unique skin needs. They try a range of products in a particular category that fit their individual needs. The overall ranking system of the Clean Beauty Awards is a systematic scoring method based on a product’s efficacy and performance which means that personal preference, and unique skin concerns are not always reflected in the final results.
Marina suffers from rosacea and has couperose zones on her cheeks, which make her especially prone to sensitivity. This is part of what inspired Marina to become a clean beauty advocate. As a Clean Beauty Awards Judge, she tested ______ facial cleansers and shared her top three favourite products.
