Shopper Reviews

A five-star review states: "Experience the hydration of this slightly acidic gel formula, that provides a refreshing, moisturizing cleanse. Ideal for maintaining a healthy skin barrier, it leaves your skin clean, soft, and hydrated."

Another shopper said: "I’ve been using this for a couple of weeks now and it’s absolutely amazing. So hydrating."

A third reviewer commented: "I really love this face wash and will definitely be repurchasing. It gets all my makeup off, feels gentle, doesn't strip skin and leaves it feeling clean and a good base for evening routine or daytime."

One five-star review noted: "I switched from Cerave to this cleanser and it's incredible! I have a lot of excess dirt and sebum on my large nose pores which Cerave never got rid of (I could still feel the bumpiness of the dirty pores with Cerave) but this cleaner really cleanses and smoothes it down well. This is definitely my new favourite daily cleanser."

However, one shopper who gave the product three stars said: "It’s ok but nothing spectacular - skin felt hydrated not dry though."

Alternative Products

Also available at Boots is the Medicube Zero Pore SA Clearing Capsule Cleansing Foam for £14.32. Its product description reads: "Formulated with Cica Exosome and Natural BHA, the blue capsules help to soften excess sebum, while Silica Particles gently exfoliate dead skin cells and impurities, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and clear."

Elsewhere, LOOKFANTASTIC offers the Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil for £16. The product description reads: "A lightweight, milky cleansing oil that removes makeup and impurities, enriched with soothing Korean heartleaf extract." A shopper who tried this alternative said: "Lovely cleanser, feels lovely on the skin. Easy to wash off."
