I recently received the latest press samples from Monroe Skincare and it is beautiful.
Monroe's tagline is:
INCLUSIVELY, EXCLUSIVELY, #FOREVERYONE
A beautifully curated range of 6 products - 4 skincare, 1 hair, 1 fragrance.
In sleek monochromatic glass packaging this is the ultimate capsule collection for your bathroom shelf, designed for him/her/everyone.
I absolutely love the idea of interchangeable products - I could never really get my head around why mens and womens products should be so different - I think it ultimately comes down to packaging and fragrance most of the time.
The range consists of:
Cleanse & Shave Solution
Eau De Parfum
Exfoliator & Pore Minimiser
Glycolic Serum 7%
Matte Styling Clay
Moisturiser SPF20
I am yet to try all products and I will update this as I work my way through them, for the last few days I have been wearing the Eau De Parfum as I am a sucker for fragrance.
Those of you old enough to remember CK1 will be familiar with the concept of a unisex fragrance. I have to say this falls on more masculine notes, but I'm down with that as I tend to go for more heavy musty tones anyway and sometimes I do wear mens aftershave. I went through a Ralph Lauren Safari moment in my late teens....
The idea of a completely inclusive, diverse and shareable simple skincare and beauty line is a long time coming and much needed.
Also a huge plus - imagine never having to take 2 washbags again - you can share products and pack them into 1 bag! Genius.
