    They are soooo tight with their samples :( - i called them & mentioned the lovely reviews they received here, was politely told they have never heard of us & they don't do free samples :(

    If you want "free samples" (excluding P+P) then order from QVC. You can try it for 30 days and if you dont like it, it dont like you - send it back for a full refund

    Just to mention there is a Liz Earle seconds shop on Ebay which is cheaper than QVC but doesn't always have the full range:

    somewhere between Heaven and Woolworth's

    I love Liz Earle products, especially as they are BUAV approved, but cannot use C&P or Skinrepair as I end up with red painful lumps on my face. Am fine with everything else though. The Superskin Moisturizer is divine - the little pot lasts for ages (had mine for a month and it's still got another 2-3 weeks to go I think). Her body products smell amazing too - I wish she'd make a fragrance that smells the same.

    On other threads I have noticed that the main LE products people rave about seem to be the C&P and the Skin Repair moisturiser. Not much mention of the toner.

    Does anybody find that the toner is really necessary for best results? Given that C&P states that you should splash with cold water after finishing with the hot cloth, is that sufficient?

    I've just started using C&P, am treating myself to the moisturiser next time I'm passing John Lewis (as I have vouchers to spend) but not sure whether the toner is a justifiable expense.

    I use the toner, just because:o
    BUT I got the 200ml spritzer one. That way it all goes on your face & not on a cotton wool ball:rolleyes:
    I got it before xmas lasy year, a good bit before & I haven't used half of it & I give it a few good sprays.
    I would say if you get the spritzer it will last a year or so:D

    I don't know if it makes heaps (or any) differencem but its the one LE thing that works out REALLY cheap because it lasts so long.

    I use the toner but I can't see that it makes any difference, it's just part of my routine now. I won't be buying another one when this one runs out although it's a spritzer and it's lasting AGES!

    I do have a tiny spritzer that I take on the plane though and I like using that one as it makes me feel better when sitting in that stuffy crowded atmosphere.

    No need to use a toner with the C&P, but its lovely to have if you get a freebie. If you do decise to treat yourself and dont get a spritzer, apply with your finger tips instead of cotton wool - sort of pushing it into your skin - will last forever that way

    Same here unfortunately. I absolutely love the orange flower body wash though, it smells so gorgeous.

    I've been hooked on Liz Earle since my Mum bought me the skincare set for my birthday last year.

    Cleanse and polish is a fantastic product that I would not be without, and I also love the Instant boost skin tonic and the Skin Repair light. I was converted to this range from Clinique, and it is so much kinder on the face! I also find that it lasts a long time as the packaging is designed to dispense the amount you need so you don't waste loads.

    Having said that, I have also found that the Superskin Moisturiser and Deep Cleansing mask do not suit my skin and leave it red and uncomfortable, so I guess it's a case of finding the products that suit you.

    I recommend the little 'Try-me' sets as a great way to find out what suits your skin without spending a fortune. I've also received some kind of freebie trial size goody every time I've ordered from them so far, so that is a nice little bonus too!
