This is so fantastic. It doesn’t really have any strong smell which is nice and it removes my makeup more easily than much harsher products. I’m not sure what exactly is in this but I highly recommend. My face feels so clean and refreshed without feeling stripped
I’ve been using this cleanser for almost 8-10 years in my morning routine and I couldn’t imagine using anything else! My skin is normal (slightly dry) and this does a perfect job at washing my face without stripping it.
Really great cleanser not sure why there’s so many bad reviews !! I have sensitive skin and this is amazing . Foams well, leaves skin feeling nice and clean and soft not tight. My skin has been consistently clear using this it’s my second bottle. I think it’s such a great cleanser. Foams up well and lasts a fairly long time. The bottle is big compared to other cleansers you get for a similar price so … BONUS!
A wonderful cleanser that cleanses well without stripping the skin. It lathers nicely and a little goes a long way. I’d use this during the summer to remove the extra dirt on my oily skin or after a sweaty workout session.
Omg Beste is one of the best cleansers! It foams up beautifully but isn’t stripping at all. The packaging is convenient for travel and overall, it’s always on hand at my house and I highly recommend for any and all skin types
i love the drunk elephant cleanser it feels super light and clean on the skin it does a great job at removing all my make up and dirt after a long day. I highly recommend it for anyone with sensitive skin
This cleanser leaves the skin feeling soft and hydrated, but I wouldn’t recommend it for removing makeup—especially around the eyes. It’s marketed to “remove all traces of makeup,” but when I tried using it on my eye makeup, it stung and burned. After checking the label, I saw it advises against use near the eyes, which was disappointing since mascara and other eye makeup are often the most stubborn to remove. I’ve used other products that are both safe and gentle for the eye area, so I expected a similar experience. While it has no added fragrance, there is a subtle hint of a chemical scent.
Received it as a gift put in the drawer and forgot about it. Today, knowing my daily cleanser is at the end of the tube, I went through all samples to find a cleanser that will do until I go to the mall. Found Drunk elephant No.9. Had a minute of hesitation as the one time I used a sample of their cream, I woke up the day after with so much of luneven skin like a sand paper but sse time skin was greasy. So anyway I thought it was best time to try the cleanser since I am not working. Wow’ the clear gel mix with water be comes that creamy light mousse. Rondes all that with warm water, pat dry with face lotte and voilà! My skin feels so clean, doesn’t itchy nor greasy, just really clean. I can’t wait tomorrow to see my skin amd will report back! If it stay as I feel right now, I might order the full tube to replace my usual brand!
As someone who has oily acne prone skin, this is the perfect gentle option for an everyday cleanser for me. It’s great for removing excess oil and dirt in my pores, and has never left me feeling stripped. I would definitely recommend. 👍🏾
I have been using this product for years and its my holy grail. Its very getle and perfect for sensitive skin like mine!
