Hello ladies,

I'm looking for a cleanser which removes make-up including eye make-up and cleans skin deeply. Being bit lazy Very Happy
I hope I didn't ask for too much Embarassed

I can't say this this product is "deep" cleansing, but you may want to try Sothys Soft Cleansing Water. This is good for removing all make-up, and is very gentle to the skin.

I can't say that these two are deep cleansing but both remove makeup well: Decleor Cleansing Oil (definitely not in the deep cleansing category though) and YonKa Gell Nettoyant. Babor Cleansing oil also does a really good job, as does Dr Hauschka Cleansing Milk and Jurlique Cleansing lotion (I just recently tried this and like it). I must say though that I do not wear heavy eye makeup.

Thank you ladies Smile

I only use eye make up, moisturizer + sunscreen. No foundation, powder or blush.
I'm still bit confused with Dr. Hauschka's cream cleanser hmm ; you are suppose to use it after you have removed your make-up but since I don't wear any, I'm wondering if Dr. H cream cleanser will be enough to wash away the sunscreen and clean my skin properly Question
Sorry for asking stupid questions Embarassed

I've heard great things about DHC Cleansing oil as a great cleanser that also removes makeup and sunscreen very well. Also Fancl Genele Cleansing Oil is the same type of product. This should do the job!

I am the same way. Try Shiseido's Purifying Foam Cleanser.

I use Beauty Without Cruely's 3% AHA Facial Cleanser. It's great! It gives you that really clean feeling without leaving your skin dry. Best of all, it's very afordable, about $7 USD.

Hi, Medusa:
I am new to Dr H cleansing cream too, I feel Dr H cleansing cream is quite effective in taking off my sheer / light make up in general, however, I would still recommend a cleansing milk for removing make up since the cleansing cream is not supposed to be used around the eye area, so, I would not use it to remove my eye makeup even though it does take off my foundation.

I have read other reviews of this cleansing cream at MakeUpAlley, some people only choose to use this cream several times a week as a treatment, or in the morning when they dont need to take off their make up, I guess this is an issue of personal preference, my skin is thin, I just feel I couldnt use it daily AM and PM, so, I opt to use it less frequently. Hope this helps!

Wow, thanx for the recommendations!!! Smile

I can't and don't like to use products with AHA as my (thin) skin gets itchy and red.

Bbiz, I use the Dr. H only the morning and I like it. Currently in the PM I use Chanel cleanser to clean my face from dirt, oil and sunscreen. Using a milk first is too much for me *blush* as I'm a lazy person. Embarassed

As for the eyes Rolling Eyes A while ago I had this brave idea to show the world my face without make-up cuz I was bit tied to clean the eyes so I stopped using any make-up but then one day I saw a picture of myself without make-up and I had to face the cruel reality myself Silenced I looked like Medusa! Crying or Very sad I didn't know how fast to run to get my eye paint out again and with this I hoped to reduce the worlds horror a bit Very Happy

Laughing It's interesting how we get used to how we look with eye makeup. It is very defining and I do find that I look rather plain without it. I am not as nice to the world as you though and often prefer to sleep in rather than do my eye makeup Embarassed

Btw, when I use the Dr H Cleanisng Cream in the morning I don't use the lotion beforehand. I do use it in the evenings if I am wearing makeup, but not if I just had moisturiser/SPF on.

a cleanser -eye make up remover -related thought just came to me : what is more abrasive : muslin cloth or cotton wool?
From my personal experience I found cotton wool abrasive under my eyes so at the moment I use muslin cloth to remove my eye make up..but am I doing the right thing? Question
