I was in need of a new cleanser and I like gel type, so decided for some Cellcosmet after trying a little sample tube and liking it.
MY COMMENTS:
Feel & usage:
This is a wonderful gentle cleanser that leaves skin soft and feeling clean, yet without any taughtness or sense of being stripped.
It is an alcohol-free blue gel that does not foam, however the correct way to use it (which is not provided with samples) is to massage over a dry face. Add a small amount of water to emulsify and then rinse off with warm water and (preferably) a cleansing cloth/sponge.
I have been using this as my evening cleanser and whilst I dont wear make-up much, it certainly is a great make-up remover. I had on brow pencil the other day and just one swipe of my gel-covered fingers when I was emulsifying took off the pencil 100%
Packaging:
The packaging is nice (pump bottle with cover), although being quite a large rectangular shape it is difficult to wrap the hand around and bring up one finger to pump (it is only a short pump with a short nozzle too). But that is a minor thing really. It is expensive, but a decent sized bottle (200ml/6.7oz)
Ingredients:
The only thing that has put me off a bit and would probably keep me from repurchasing is the ingredients, which I did not know till my full size arrived, and which disappointed me a bit (I try to avoid a lot of chemicals, often without much success  ):
Water, Propylene Glycol, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, PEG-7 GlycerylEthylhexanoate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, French Rose Extract, Matricaria Extract, White Oak Bark Extract, Carbomer, Triethanolaimine, Imidazolidnyl Urea, Sodium Chloride, Methylparaben, Disodium EDTA, Magnesium Nitrate, Phenoxyethanol, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Magnesium Chloride, Methylisothiazolinone, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben, FD&C Blue No. 1 (CI 42090) |
