You may all be surprised to read a post from the "Cellcosmet gel cleanser raver" but this product really deserves a review.
I have always avoided cream or milk cleansers because, having oily skin meant a cream or milk was going to clog the pores or leave a greasy film. This product does not do that, it leaves your skin soft, refreshed and incredibly clean feeling just like a baby's skin.
I used this product twice a day for two weeks just to make sure it was not going to contribute to any breakouts and it didn't.
The texture is slightly thicker than milk with a slight perfume smell, which may be either the sweet almond oil or the mallow. It can be rinsed off with water, which I do, or taken off with tissue or cotton wool. When taken off with water, there is absolutely no feeling of oiliness and your face is immediately clean. It is also safe to use around the eye area to remove makeup.
This is a really lovely cleanser which I believe would be suited to all skin types.
I have no hesitation rating it 5/5 |

can you use it around the eyes?

enquiring minds want to know... |

Thanks Sormuimui, as I could not find the ingredients.
Tiger_tim you can use it on your eyes as the Valmont website says you can use it to remove eye makeup. I don't have a clue what any of the ingredients are but this cleanser is part of Valmont's sensitive skin line. |

Just curious bushy, why didn't you try the gel one from Valmont? |

bushy - actually Nature is not Valmont's sensitive line, Valmont's Dermo Emulsion is the cleanser for sensitive skin. Valmont is more of an anti-aging line while Nature is for the younger age-groups targetted at preventative measures by providing optimal moisture to the skin. |

Sormuimui, thanks for that info as I wasn't aware of that.
Marina I have never had any samples of Valmont gel cleansers but was given the Nature Cleansing Milk by a friend a while ago and had not tried it until just recently. Based on how good it was, I am now keen to try a few more of the Valmont cleansers, especially the gels. |

Yes, what I like it is leave my skin hydrating, not dry. |

I have been thinking..and now torn between Valmont Nature cleansing milk and valmont White Falls cleansing. I used a sample of White Falls which worked well for me. Is there anyone using both and let me know the difference or recommend a better choice for a oily type? Thanks. |

jeannie, although I haven't tried the White Falls, if you have already tried it and it worked for you then stay with it. I was just so surprised that a milk cleanser could be so nice, particularly on oily type skin. Also, both these cleansers can be rinsed off with water. |

bushy, thanks for your comments. It would be a safe option to me, right? I have been looking for good cleansing and other products for oily type skin long time. In theory, a lot of products are supposed to work well but it is not that easy to find the right one for an individual like me (sensitive, oily t-zone, dry u-zone(?), chin easily break-out.)
bushy, did I menetion I thank you always for your reviews? I read through your product reviews carefully, because some products (Remergent, Cellcosmet, Valmont, AG..) you recommended were great finds to me. Have no idea exactly, but for some reason, my facial skin reaction pattern to certain products seems similar to yours in a degree. I feel comfortable to do the lemming as per your input. |
