The New Frank Body Sweet Cheeks Face Range

Love confessions to Frank.

________

I love Frank. I've loved Frank since we first showered together. And just when I thought I couldn't love his coffee goodness any more, he added a little coconut, peppermint and cacao to the mix. I think the easiest way to tell if you truly love a brand and/or product is how many people you recommend it to and, let me tell you, I've recommended Frank Body to absolutely everybody, from my boyfriend, my mum and all my best friends (and I haven't heard one complaint!). In fact, when there's over 630,000 babes raving about it and willing to post photos of themselves covered in a dark brown dirt-like substance, it must be pretty damn amazing.

I thought the Body Balm was the perfect last step to my Frank Body routine, but how terribly, terribly wrong I was. When I heard that Frank was releasing a face range, I just knew I needed the 3-step bundle on my shelf, ASAP. To say I had huge expectations would be an understatement. I mean, if the Sweet Cheeks face range is as good as the body range, then woah, there are going to be very good times to be had.

The Sweet Cheeks bundle arrived on my doorstep in a sturdy (and recyclable) cardboard canister in true Frank Body style. Upon 'popping his top' (his words, not mine), the pinky-peach, white and brown packaging of the 3-step skincare is revealed; a Creamy Face Cleanser, Creamy Face Scrub and Everyday Face Moisturiser. One of the things I love the most is that they're each accompanied by a playful pamphlet with instructions on how to use the product for the best effect, as well as how often you should use it and the delicious natural ingredients (and what they'll do for you).

So, let's get started.

STEP 1: CREAMY FACE CLEANSER


I've been using the Frank Body Creamy Face Cleanser every morning and night. The first thing you notice is its weird grey colour - not the prettiest thing in my beauty cupboard, that's for sure, but I'm going to go ahead and assume that it's due to its inclusion of skin-loving, impurity-hatin' charcoal. Totally worth it. I'm all about creamy cleansers, so my skin really loves this particular product and it also takes off makeup - booyah! If you're not sure how to cleanse properly, I shared my tips and tricks here to make the most of your cleanser.

STEP 2: CREAMY FACE SCRUB


In this instance, I was most excited to try  the Creamy Face Scrub, probably because Frank Body is the master of scrubs (so, it has to be amazing, right?). Right. It's a great gentle formula for sensitive skin that contains Frank's usual roasted and ground coffee (but even finer), as well as natural detoxifier white clay and lots of amazing natural oils. It also doubles as a mask, since it should be left on the skin for at least a few minutes after gently rubbing in small circles over the face and neck. Let that goodness sink in ladies (and gentlemen)!

Oh, and you can also read all about my exfoliating tips and tricks here too.

STEP 3: EVERYDAY FACE MOISTURISER


As soon as I read that the Everday Face Moisturiser is targeted for blemish-prone skin (raising my hand), I knew this moisturiser would become a permanent part of my skincare routine. It contains a whole bunch of acne fighting antioxidants, as well as rich oils and butters to tackle any dryness, which is definitely something I struggle with. The moisturiser is actually really lightweight and goes a long way, despite being packed with miracle ingredients, which is why it is really great under makeup.

I'd love to hear all about your Frank experiences! Has he made your skin silky smooth or settled a rosacea flare up or perhaps even helped with eczema, acne or scarring (I've definitely experienced the latter two!)?
