I mentioned the Free From Skincare Awards in my post about the Allergy & Free From Show. The awards launched this year and are run by Michelle Berriedale-Johnson editor of FoodsMatter.com and Alex Gazzola, deputy editor of SkinsMatter.com and a health writer specialising in allergies. The idea behind the awards is to encourage and reward manufacturers of free from skincare.
Q Silica Remove Make up and Grime Cleansing Gel was announced as the Best Free From Skincare Product 2012. This is a brand I am not familiar with so I am keen to learn more about this product. I am delighted to hear that Q Silica is an Australian brand, we all know how much I adore skincare from Down Under. Q Sillica products are not tested on animals and free from parabens, sulphates, petrochemicals and synthetic additives.

When people ask me for product recommendations for eczema I always tell them to start with Barefoot SOS and Salcura. Other brands on the winner list are familiar to me – Antipodes, Faith In Nature, Sukin, Gentle Green, Missence and Spieza.
Congratulations to all the award winners. I am pleased that Free From Skincare is finally getting the recognition it deserves and I look forward to trying your products for myself.
