Product reviews: Cussons Imperial Leather Original talcum powder

Imperial Leather - Original 300g

*WHAT IT DOES*

Imperial leather is a talcum powder, which makes your skin soft and smooth. You can use it after bathing or showering to give you that fresh, confident feeling and leaves your skin super smooth. It is luxury talc, with a classic fragrance and is a delicate formula.

*PACKAGING*

It comes in a bright red plastic container, which is very sturdy. There is a white screw top, which has 6 small holes in to so it is easy to sprinkle talc on yourself without it going everywhere. The label on the front has the Imperial Leather logo in red and silver. The rest of the label is simple but effective. On the back there is another label giving you more detailed information. The label is white with black writing.

*INGREDIENTS*

Talc, Perfume, Benzyl Benzoale, Citronellol, Coumarin, Limonene, Eugeonol, Geraniol, Isoeugenol

I'm not sure on any of these ingredients however this may be useful if you have any allergies.

*PRODUCT*

This product costs £1.49 and I feel it is good value for money as the talc does last long. The talc itself looks like any other talc brand and is like a powder, which is white. When you add it to your skin it will leave a white shine off your skin but once you rub it in it will disappear. You need to make sure that you rub it in well or when you put your clothes on it will leave a white residue on them.

The smell of this talc is very pleasant and empowering as it will leave you feeling confident that you are dry and do not smell bad. It is suitable for both males and females, as it doesn't have a girlie perfume smell to it.

DIRECTIONS: After bathing, showering or washing, make sure to dry yourself off with a towel. Then lightly sprinkle talc over your body. Make sure to only put a small amount on and then rub it in. Your skin will then feel super dry and soft.

As with all talc's, keep away from a baby's nose and mouth. Close the lid after use and keep it out of reach from children as they could easily open it. If a child does open it you could find a big mess with talc everywhere, as it is a fine powder it is hard to clean up. It is also dangerous as a child could get it into their eyes, nose or even eat it.

*MY EXPERIENCE*

I think this talc is the best I have ever used as it keeps me extremely dry and makes my skin feel fantastically smooth. It costs £1.49, which I think is great value, as it will last you for a long time.  I have sensitive skin and it doesn't irritate it in any way whatsoever. It doesn't have that harsh perfume smell which a lot of talc's have which is another plus for me.
