Gel Balm Cleanser

Excellent Gel Balm

I LOVE this cleanser. I use it in the morning for a gentle cleanse and it makes my skin so clean and soft. I have oily skin but I find using oils really helps overproduction. It does have quite a strong clove smell but it does not bother me. If you are sure to wet your face beforehand it works best. I have not tried to use it to take makeup off yet but that is not why I purchased it. I like this so much I have a backup ready to go.

I really loved the sample of this I received so I purchased the full bottle. The bottled product was a little different? I checked to see if I purchased the right product because I was confused and I did! The sample had a different texture and it came with a cotton cloth with I loved. It does take makeup off easily but not worth it. Disappointed and won't be purchasing again.

Controversial, but lovable

After using the sample, I can tell this is a love it or hate it deal. Sample before you buy. If the smell doesn't irritate you, the cleanser certainly won't. My skin is SUPER sensitive and loves this stuff. The damp muslin cloth is used is used to pat the balm off your skin, and man is it a beautiful result. My skin is NOURISHED as well as clean. So it's a love for me.

A good sequel to the original

I love this product. I’ve used the traditional Eve Lon cleanser, so I like the smell. Removes makeup and doesn’t break me out. Leaves my skin soft. I prefer the oil cleanser but this is definitely something I’d like to keep stored for travel and mornings when I’m short on time.

No this product does not smell great, but the key is to use a generous amount and emulsify it with water. Then it turns into a creamy, milky foam that gently cleanses the skin without stripping it. For the gentle yet thorough cleansing, I can put up with the scent.

This cleanser stinks. I used it once and had to return. I couldn’t get over the smell.

Although it's a bit pricy as cleanser, I will buy it again. It leaves my skin hydrating while does a good job remove the makeup.

If you don't like Cloves stay away from this!!

I love the Eve Lon cleanser that you use with a muslin cloth so this form intrigued me. First lots of negative reviews due to the scent. It's cloves and hops which for many would be off putting but I didn't mind it. Second, it has lots of different oils in it so for my dry skin not a problem. Thirdly, it's a gel balm which isn't going to lather much but massaging this onto my wet skin was nice and I rinsed this off using warm water followed by a cold splash of water which seals in the moisture. I use a half pump and I don't put this near my eyelids. I find many oil cleansers kind of mess with my vision so I just clean my under eye area. No residue, no need for second clean. I find my moisturizer seeps in better after using this cleaner. I recommend this highly for sensitive dry flakey skin because it's gentle and not irritating.

I swear by this cleanser!!! I have never found a cleanser that works for my very sensitive, easily dried out, also prone to breakouts, type skin.

wouldn’t use this again

Did nothing for my skin. Didn’t feel cleansed after using.

melts down makeup

This removes all traces of makeup effectively and leaves the skin nourished and bright! The ingredients list and short and I like that, simple and efficient. I use this as my first cleanse in my double cleanse routine. I also really love the muslin cloth used with this. I received this product complimentary but all opinions are my own

Wouldn't purchase in the future

this product was gentle on my skin but was not something I loved. The packaging was decent, nothing special. Can't complain about an overwhelming fragrance from the product but I don't think this is something I would purchase in the future.
