I have quite fallen in love with the bit of everyday luxury this Gold Variation of the Chocolate and Clay cleanser brings to my morning cleansing routine.

In the Self-Preserving Natural Cleansers book, I write it’s for ‘special occasions when a bit of bling is in order,’ but when I open my bathroom cabinet and see it standing on the shelf waiting to be enjoyed, I find all kinds of reasons for why a bit of bling is in order - every morning.

(PS: It’s not REAAALLY gold, but the bling factor can’t be denied.)

If you want to make your own, the formula is in this book.
