I only got this on tuesday but my initial opinions are

1 - This stuff smells like JellyBeans!! (smells yummy)
2 - Doesn't dry out my skin
3 - Slight foam which is feels nice
4 - Not to be used to remove eye makeup (some ouch factor)

I'll update as I continue to use it.

Still liking this cleanser....It cleans my skin so well without overdrying. I'm starting to notice fewer blemishes now too.

I am a bit worried though, I read on cosmeticscop.com that collidal silver can give the skin a grey appearance with prolonged use...I'm thinking that since this is a cleanser it all get washed off and won't sit on the skin...Am I right with this theory??

Hi Lianne,

I've heard that silver can change your colouring if ingested or if applied for a long period of time.

I can't imagine turning silver.... Rolling Eyes

I think there are websites with studies on this. By chance my husband had to look it up because my dog had ingested some silver compound (what a fiasco!).

I used two samples of this and I really liked it too! it's one of the few foaming gels that doesnt dry my skin up. I've ordered myself two full size bottles.

I think if collidal silver is in a rinse-off formula it should be ok since it doesn't stay long enough to be absorbed? And it's in minute quantities anyway.

I believe a LOT of colloidal silver has to be ingested over time before there's any discoloration of the skin. We're talking a lot here. Colloidal silver was used for centuries as an antibiotic, up until the time penicillin was discovered. People still use it for various conditions and ailments. It's used orally and topically. And even if some skin discoloration develops, I've read that it's not a health risk. But I don't think any of you using this cleanser have to worry AT ALL about it being one of the ingredients.

Sorry for the probably very obvious question, but what does the PSF stand for? Do you have to order this cleanser online, or can I get it at a drugstore? Embarassed Sorry once again ...

I really need to find a cleanser for my skin, since I've been using good ol'e water (yes, I know what you all are thinking). But all other cleansers have dried out my skin. And after reading that, for many, this cleanser didn't, it seems like it would be worth a try! Thanks for the help!!!!

Has anyone tried removing mineral makeup with this cleanser??

Does it get the skin totally clean without drying it out?

Thanks!

I only use mineral makeup...This cleanser gets it all off Smile Nothing on the pad if I follow with toner.

Hope that helps

Count me as another fan of this product! I love the smell, and the fact that it's so concentrated you don't have to use much. Like lianne, I'm noticing fewer blemishes, too...

Lianne, that's a great idea to use it as a brush cleaner! Not to be stupid, but do you squirt it straight onto the brushes, or just fill a container with water and add the cleanser to that? If you don't mind, please share what you do...my makeup brushes really need a bath, and I'd like to try using the papaya gel!

Thanks!

I grab a plastic cup, squirt a marble size amount in it, add 1.5-2 inches of water and swirl my brushes in it. For my foundation and blush brushes I will swirl and repeat. For eyeshadow/brow brushes I will use the same water, but for foundation/blush I will only use one brush per mixture (and I do repeat)

At the end I rinse the cup really well and will either use it or the sink to rinse the brushes til there's no more foam

Has anyone experienced purging with this cleanser? I used it last night and woke up with more blemishes. Sad

I've used the cleanser for 7 days now. From the very first time I liked it. Not much is needed and my skin seemed brighter afterwards. I would buy this again.

Yen - I haven't notice purging. How long have you been using?

I'm very acne-prone. I used it a couple of times with the Acne Mud Treatment and everytime I would breakout. I just gave up. I'm going to use the rest of the cleanser on my back. It can tolerate more than my face.
