Hi everyone!

I'm in search of a new cleanser to alternate between my beloved Eve Lom. I'm particularly interested in Valmont Nature Cleansing with A Gel. However, I haven't been able to find any reviews on here or MUA at all. I'm wondering if anyone has tried it. I tried to search for the ingredient list, but couldn't find that either. If anyone has tried it, do you know if it contains any sulfates? Also, what did you think of the product? Would you recommend other Valmont cleansers over this one? Thanks! Very Happy

do not use before, i think the most important thing of a cleanser just can clean up. Embarassed

That may be the case with a lot of people, but my skin is very sensitive and reacts to practically any cleanser I've tried. So the most important thing for me is that it doesn't irritate my skin yet cleans it.

So far, the only Valmont cleanser I have tried is Nature Cleansing with a Milk. I absolutely adored it and can't understand why I didn't review it. I no longer have the container so don't have the ingredients but it is from their purity line (no chemicals) and I am pretty sure there was no SLS in it. As I have a lot of Cellcosmet cleansing products at the moment, I haven't got back to Valmont in the cleansing area but I intend to in the future. Prior to Nature Cleansing with a Milk, I had never tried milk type cleansers thinking they would break me out (I have very oily skin) but this cleanser was great at removing dirt and oil and no breakouts. I have received a few Valmont samples over the time, but never any of their cleansers so have not had a chance to try any.

Thanks for the reply, bushy. I'm simply looking for another cleanser to alternate between either my OP Rose Cleansing Gel (morning) or Eve Lom Cleanser (evening), and Valmont just came up. It's a good line and that's why I'm considering it although there's not much information regarding their cleansers at all. I'm particularly interested in the Nature cleansing gel. Anyway, did you use the cleansing milk both morning and evening? Did you find it removed sunscreen and makeup well? Also, would you recommend it over Cellcosmet's ones?

I did use the cleansing milk morning and night and found it cleaned very well but I do not use makeup so can't answer that one however, it removed sunscreen very well. I have always tended to like gel cleansers and have stayed with the Cellcosmet Gel Cleanser for quite a while now in combination with their tonic, activator gel, mask and exfoliant. Cellcosmet works so well that I am hesitant to change it and would really like to see reviews of Valmont cleansers or get samples but I think I will try a couple more of the Valmont cleaners in the future.

Thanks bushy. I love the feel of cleansing gel, but I find most of them very drying and don't clean makeup/sunscreen well enough, so I don't use them in the evening. Since Valmont claims that their Nature cleansing gel removes makeup, I thought I'd give it a try. Cellcosmet cleansers seem to get really good reviews on EDS, but my skin is so sensitive I'm afraid I'll react to them especially after reading TheresaL's review about the cream cleanser.

My skin reacts very badly to Avene's products (except the Ystheal+ Creme, sunscreen SPF 50 and the Thermal Spring Water Spray). Honestly, I don't see what's so special about the line.

I have tried both cellcosmet and valmont cleansers. I used the valmont white falls cleanser and vital falls toner, while these are nice and the cleanser does remove make up, I still prefer the cellcosmet cleansing gel, toner etc.

As for moisturisers, I find that valmont is brilliant for my skin. I found the Cellcosmet too greasy, it left a film of oil on my skin.
I am 39 with normal to combination skin. Hope this review helps you.
