Hi Everyone
I was delighted a few months back to v kindly receive four products from Modern Apothecary to try *(PR sample); the Maison Apothecare Gel Cleanser, Brightening Facial Serum, Day Lotion and Brightening Night Facial Oil. I had never tried anything from this range before but had admired the packaging online so was delighted to get the opportunity to try – you can find out more details about the range here. I had tried all products for a short period and took a break then tried again to see if results were the same – they were.
Love the packaging of all, it is sleek, practical but still vintage looking – they look good wherever you store them.

Overall
Although I enjoyed using all the products, results good and would consider purchasing the Magical Day Lotion, overall the products are quite expensive, particularly the Brightening Night Facial Oil compared to similar products I already use and love and achieve the same or slightly better results with (cleanser). However as they are good products, I did enjoy using them and they are still not as expensive as similar products from other brands, would still recommend checking out the range of products for yourself especially if you have not yet managed to get the results you want from similar products.

Look forward to any comments you may have. Have you tried any products from this range before?
If you are not already a follower would love you to follow my blog too – would mean a lot. Will have more posts up later today or tomorrow.
Thank you – take care and hope you have a great week.
Best Wishes Liz x
*PR Samples
I have not tried this range but it looks gorgeous and I definitely will look out for it in the future. It’s tricky having combination but dehydrated skin so I know what you mean when describing the cleanser. It looks very appealing as a range, sort of vintage pharmaceutical and I imagine it would look lovely in any bathroom or dressing table. I think it looks like a very good quality product all in all.
