Anyone know Eve Lom cleanser and can recommend a cheaper alternative?

I'm sitting here with tight, dry and red skin and remembered once getting this product as a gift but then I never bought it for myself as it is soooo pricey. However, my skin is so uncomfortable I'm thinking about picking up a tub of this tomorrow. I'm almost committed to just upping my skin care routine - I did this with my hair and the improvement is such that I will never turn back. But if you know the product and can recommend a cheaper alternative I'd be curious to try it!

Please can I ask what you now use on your hair that means you would never go back...
I am staring at my woefully sad locks and want to hear of anything that works!

misses point of thread

Fade, I had always used cheap shampoo and conditioner on my colored hair and it looked bouncy and healthy. I then went natural and struggled a bit, then the amount of grey increased. That is a totally different texture and my hair turned dry, dull and v straw like. I was encouraged to try more expensive brands. I noticed some improvement so I shopped around until I found my hair's current happy place, which is khiels, a few lines. The one for dry and damaged. The avocado one. And another I can't recall. All v rich and instantly transformed the straw back into shiny bouncy hair! I don't use hair serums. Why are your locks sad?

Since having DD nearly 3 years ago my hair has just been frizzy. It is now also a half way house between wavy and straight. So it always looks a though it needs a goo brush...but when I do it just frizzes out to give me triangle hair!
My hair is not dry, and I went through a phase of using heavy conditioners and they just let it lank!
I have tried a wealth of products from serums, hair oil mousse and none have delivered the shiny swishy hair that I had pre DD.
I've not tried kheils so maybe it is worth a go...

Khiels offers samples for free. I also tried lots of other brands round about that price take. Annoyingly, they were all better than cheap stuff from boots. I bet you can find something that will suit you. Good luck!

Emma Hardie has been my favourite of the non mineral oil cleansing balms. Sarah Chapman is also up there.

However, about 80% of the way and much less spendy is Marks & Spencer Pure cleansing balm.
