PAI SKINCARE - Middlemist Seven Organic Camellia + Rose Gentle Cream Cleanser | Natural, Vegan, Sensitive Skincare (5 oz | 150 mL)

I have tried many facial cleansers over the years. This is by far the best. Was skeptical since it does not lather like I’m used to, but this cleanser not only works but makes my face feel amazing.

I sure didn't like spending $60 for a facial cleanser, but.... I have never felt anything quite like it. I have very sensitive skin with a touch of rosacea on my upper cheek area. I have tried many natural facial cleansers, and my skin hasn't loved any of them. My skin loves this velvety cleanser, and my face looks better and better every day. You only need a small amount, so it will last quite awhile.

Overall this is an effective cleanser, but I did have a couple of issues with it. Here are my pros and cons. ***I have extremely dry, acne-prone skin. I am practically married to moisturizers at this point***Pros:1. This cleanser did a good job removing makeup. It did not take much effort to remove it all.2. The formula is soft and definitely does not agitate my face.3. My face did stay moisturized after cleansing. This formula does contain glycerin which is a common type of moisturizer for the skin. Glycerin is also non-comedogenic (does not clog the pores and cause acne). This formula would be great for those with dry skin!Cons:1. ***CAUTION*** This does contain sweet almond oil. I do not have much understanding of almond allergies, but this may not be safe for those that do have it!!!2. I would not recommend for those that do not enjoy strong scented products.3. This cleanser is heavy. It almost feels like you are spreading lotion on your face, so it may not feel pleasant for some. It does not foam or bubble at all.4. The bottle is small. This kit would be a great gift, but please don't buy as your daily cleanser thinking it will last a long time. Especially those that double cleanse after wearing makeup.Lastly, I did like the cloth that came with the kit, but one side did agitate my face. If you have very sensitive skin, it may do the same.Overall, I really like this cleanser! It definitely did it's job and kept my face feeling soft and moisturized. I was put off a little by the scent and the almond oil was the only concerning ingredient to me. If I could rate on a 1-10 scale, I would give it a solid 8. I recommend. :)

This facial wash is superb. It does have a good amount of oil ingredients so unfortunately it is not compatible with my foreo Luna 3 device. (Or any other silicone facial brush) This facial wash is phenomenal at cleansing my skin. This cleanser feels like a gentle foaming cleanser. It has a really nice lather to it. I also really like the soft wash cloth that comes with this travel size cleanser as well. I used to love oil cleansers before I upgraded my foreo device into my routine. I find this cleanser to be deeply cleansing. It cleanses my face impressively well. What I love about this cleanser is that it offers a deep cleanse with out striping away the natural moisture from my skin. It leaves my skin feeling baby soft. This is a wonderful effective cleanser that I am very happy with. I would whole heartedly highly recommend this facial wash.

CREAM TOO THICK AND HARD TO SPREAD

Review for: PAI SKINCARE - Middlemist Seven Organic Camellia + Rose Gentle Cream Cleanser | Natural, Vegan, Sensitive Skincare (1.7 fl oz | 50 mL)It doesn’t take many uses to realize this is a really good cleanser. With or without the facial cloth, the product does a gentle but thorough cleanse. Because it does have some oil in it, it does not dry the skin out. The cloth has two sides, one for a gentle exfoliate and the other to wipe the product off.There is a light scent with the cleanser but I can’t identify it. The scent is not unpleasant. With the flip top, opening and closing even while in the shower is very simple.

This cleanser is different from anything I've ever used before and I have to say, I'm not crazy about it.First, the instructions say to put it on dry skin which seems odd, but ok. The cleanser feels like a thick cream and I thought for sure it was going to leave my skin feeling oversaturated but it did the opposite...Once I cleaned my face with the muslin/terry cloth and let my face dry, my skin felt more dried out than I expected.I've tried it a couple of times since and I had the same results.Just not for me, I guess.

This PAI organic cream cleanser is very creamy and emollient but it washed away well. After cleansing, my skin felt really soft and since this is winter, I also did not have a dry-skin feeling at all. This does not suds up, so if you like a sudsing cleanser, you may not like this, but I am used to non-sudsing cleansers.This is a creamy cleanser that is gentle to the skin. I could barely detect a scent, which is fine with me, but I wouldn't have minded a little more scent. The cloth is a nice touch, though I have not used it as I tend not to use washcloths on my face, but once I launder it I may give it a try.I like that on their page (if you click on the PAI link at the top of the page) there was information on the product that included a video on the founder and why she began manufacturing PAI (her own sensitive skin issues).This is a small tube for $29, so consider the price when most of the product is just washing down the drain.I'd try more products from PAI.
