What the gurus are saying

The gurus split on this one. Those who liked it praise how well it cuts through makeup and oils in a second cleanse, leaving skin prepped for the rest of a routine. However, others found it left their skin feeling tight and squeaky clean, which matters because the formula does contain lavender and spearmint alongside hydrating glycerin and aloe. That botanical mix can irritate sensitive skin or those prone to dryness, so anyone with those concerns may want to patch-test first or lean toward it only as a second cleanse on nights with heavy makeup.

"For night time because of that lather this does a really good job to remove makeup and sunscreen. Sometimes after that first cleanse we still have a residue left over from a cleansing balm or a cleansing oil, and this will ensure that your skin is completely clean and prepped for all of your other skincare products."

"This one unfortunately made my face feel squeaky clean for the last few times I've used it. I bought this over a month ago and I did not like it. It was just way too drying. It felt too tight on my face afterwards. I have combination skin, and it was just not good for my skin. It does have soothing ingredients like aloe, it has glycerin which is hydrating, it has lavender and spearmint leaf. I take caution in brands that really push botanical ingredients. All natural does not mean all safe."

"It has a hydration component but also has lavender flour water and lavender and spearmint, which can be irritating for a lot of people. It gives you that kind of cooling sensation, but it can also be irritating to the skin. Although this is fragrance-free, those are technically essential oils and for some people could end up irritating them. Overall, it's a good affordable basic cleanser, but it's definitely not on my best of Bubble list. It's a cleanser and it will serviceably cleanse."
