Wow, I can’t believe this is the tenth instalment in this series! It’s always nice to look back at what I had in my stash and what I thought of each product. The first cleanser I want to talk about today is no stranger to my blog or this series either!
The Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm RRP £52 is probably one of my favourite cleansers and one of my most repurchased skincare items! It is just a 5-star experience from start to finish in my opinion! It has the most uplifting, citrus scent that is not overpowering and doesn’t make my eyes water and the balm itself is so luxurious, it melts easily on touch, a little goes a long way and it spreads like a dream. It feels hydrating and balancing and removes heavy makeup with ease. The pot comes with a little spatula, so is hygienic, as well as a lovely thick, soft cleansing cloth! It’s pricey at £52 but I have never paid full price and always order this when it’s on offer at Look Fantastic though it is well worth the money!
Next up, is the semi-recently reformulated Farmacy Green Clean Cleansing Balm RRP $52 CAD | £38*. Now, I had only ever used a mini of the original formulation of this cleanser and I remember enjoying it but I can’t compare the two however I love this formula! As well as this version, it also comes in a fragrance-free form for those with super sensitive skin! I love the scent of the classic one – lime, bergamot and orange – it’s so fresh! The balm has a stiffer formula than the Emma Hardie but melts easily one you start massaging into the skin and transforms into a milky lather when you add water. It’s rich in antioxidants and contains sunflower oil and papaya extract to nourish skin and target impurities leaving my skin soft and hydrated. It removes my makeup without leaving any residue behind and I can’t fault it!
Lastly for my PM or first cleanse is the Pixi EOD Cleansing Oil RRP $23 CAD | £14*. This is the most affordable cleanser in my current collection and works just as well as the previous two! It feels a little less luxurious to me as it’s fragrance free but this will suit sensitive skins no doubt! It’s plant based and contains argan oil and soy bean oil and I have no issues with this removing makeup and SPF effectively. My skin is left feeling soft and hydrated and the only negative I would say is that sometimes I find the packaging can be a little messy around the cap so I tend not to take it travelling with me and I would prefer a pump! I think Pixi is such an underrated skincare and makeup brand, I love the majority of the products I have tried!
Sticking with the green theme and the Celimax Noni Acne Cleanser RRP $24.89 CAD* is the newest cleanser to my stash. While not currently experiencing acne (touch wood), after using for a couple of months now, it’s found a firm place in my routine as a morning or second cleanse on days when I have a few breakouts. It contains glycerin, salicylic acid, willow bark extract and centella asiatica so gently removes dead skin cells and soothes skin. It has a fresh, herbal mint scent and despite being a foaming cleanser, doesn’t strip my skin at all, it leaves it feeling soft and balanced! Use my code DANIELLESBB5 for up to 5% off at YESSTYLE!
Rounding off the morning and second cleansers are a duo from Farmacy. The Farmacy Green Clean Whipped Foaming Cleanser RRP $44 CAD | £31* is a pH balanced, oil free, foaming extra deep cleanse that draws out oil, dirt, and impurities caused by pollution. It contains moringa, green clay and papaya enzymes so nourishes while absorbing oil and doesn’t strip my skin barrier. I have been loving this throughout the summer when my combo skin leans oily! It smells so fresh and transforms into a light lather with water, doesn’t dry out my skin and makes it feel so clean!
Lastly, the Farmacy Green Clean Gentle Creamy Cleanser RRP $44 CAD | £31* and this one is great for drier and more sensitive skins! It’s fragrance free, also contains moringa as well as oats and Vitamin F to sooth and nourish the skin. This feels a touch creamier than the foaming cleanser and I reach for it especially when my skin is feeling in any way sensitised!
None of these cleansers irritate my eyes but I do always use the Nivea Double Effect Waterproof Eye Make Up Remover RRP £10.99 CAD | £3.89 to take of my eye makeup before cleansing with one of these!
Have you tried any of these cleansers before? What cleansers are you currently using? Like I said, I now have ten instalments of this series on my blog so I won’t go through all of them but here are the most recent three if you want more cleanser reviews!
