After a full day exposed to chemical and environmental pollution, our face is more than ready for relief. This richly foaming soap fits our needs to a tee, washing away toxins and pore-clogging impurities—without stripping skin of its natural moisture. Sulfate-free, pthalate-free, and paraben-free, this cleanser also has antiaging ingredients (think: omega-3 and omega-6) to keep skin smooth and glowing.
I was very excited when I got my very first BirchBox and couldn't wait to open it. Inside was this product. While disappointed with the sample size (I realize these are samples, but was hoping for more than 2 uses), I was excited to try this. I have dry skin that is prone to breakouts if I'm not careful. This facial cleanser reminded me of rubbing a non foaming shampoo on my face. I would have preferred it more had it not been so heavy. Not much in the department of smell to report. The worst for me was the way it makes my skin feel. It made me feel like my face was very tight and in desperate need for a moisturizer. I apply a vitamin c serum to my face after washing every night, but I will be going back to my old product that doesn't make my face feel so dry.
1This cleanser looked great in my hands, but did not cleanse my skin well. I have combination skin and usually use Cerave Facial Foaming cleanser, which I highly recommend. I liked Vasanti's packaging and sample size, but I didn't like the fragrance. The cleanser felt more like Pantene's shampoo on my face, so it didn't give me a good, clean feel. It just felt like I lathered shampoo onto my face.
