Hello dear readers!
Today I’m going to be reviewing the Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser with Cottonseed.
«««««««««« My skin and preferences »»»»»»»»»
My skin is normal all year round except winter. In winter it tends to dryness. From a cleansing product I expect fine cleansing, preferably squeaky clean face. And I hate it when the product dries out my skin.
«««««««««« Product says »»»»»»»»»
Non-drying, creamy cleanser removes impurities, make-up and excess oil while respecting skin’s natural moisture balance. Almond cottonseed extract possesses emollient attributes, a skin conditioner. Gentle formula neutralizes the drying effects of hard water. Rinses easily with cool water.
«««««««««« About the product »»»»»»»»»
Consistency: The consistency is soft and creamy. It foams very well. I expected that I would need a pea-sized drop of the product to clean my entire face, since the product is high end. But no, it turned out that I need a little bit more, which isn’t very economical.
Scent: The scent is strange for me (especially for a high end brand). The product smells of some household chemicals like washing powder or something like that. But I like this smell. It isn’t in-your-nose and disappears quickly.
«««««««««« My experience and results »»»»»»»»»
I read loads of reviews where they said that they didn’t like this product. I guess that they didn’t like it due to wrong use.
I want to share with you the way how to use this product right!
The first thing you need to do is to wet your face and hands. Then squeeze out about two-pea-sized drops, lather them between your palms and add some more water if needed. Only after that you need to apply the foam on your face.
Also for making a foam you can use a wash up bubble net. Only in case you apply foam on your face and not a product, you’ll receive the result you’ll love! My skin feels great after washing my face with this foaming cleanser.
The product doesn’t dry out my skin, on the contrary, it moisturizes. Its soft and gentle foam leaves my face squeaky clean. There’s also no residue left or film or tightening feelings.
After I started using this product right, I noticed that there are no pimples or imperfections on my skin appearing. The thing I’m very glad about is that there’s not even a hint left of my parched skin around the nose area. Take my word, I was suffering this flaking and parching all my life and only this product let me forget about it.
Besides, I don’t use any facial creams after washing my face with this product. Thermal water is more than enough for my skin to be soft and gentle. The result is especially visible in the morning, when I look in the mirror and see how beautiful my skin is.
Attention!
I know there are some people who like experiments, I mean they like trying to use the products for other purposes than that intended. If you’re one of them read carefully!
This isn’t a product to remove your eye make-up. This product is the next step for cleansing your face after you have already removed your entire make-up. Will you side with me that there are some people who use the product for other purposes and then swear about it and assess it with 2 stars.
I HOPE THAT YOU’VE HEARD ME!
