Minty/tingly cleansers?
EDS Skin Care Forums Forum Index » Skin Care and Makeup Forum

I recently finished off a bottle of the Dermalogica Clay cleanser. While I like it (I won't say more, I think I have reviewed it at least once in the past) I am now in search of another cleanser that has that nice minty/tingly feeling (and is also a good cleanser, of coure). I love that in the morning - it's such a great wake-me-up! Of course, I have about 8 different cleansers still in my bathroom at the moment yet I'm in the mood for a new cleanser purchase. Can anyone suggest something? TIA!

Yes, yes. Garden of Wisdom Lemon Mint cleanser. Here's the link.

I would imagine you've tried the Valmont Fresh Falls. A lovely wake up in the morning feeling. If I wasn't hooked on Herzog cleanser I might spring for the Fresh Falls if it were a little less expensive.

What about Organic Eucalyptus Seafoam Facial Cleanser for 100% Pure? I haven't tried this one myself but it's definitely on my to-try list:

My vote goes to Osea Cleansing Mudd. It's a refreshing, slightly exfoliating cleanser that contains tea tree and peppermint oil for an uplifting sensation. I think it might be too strong for every day use, but it's great to use 2-4 times a week.

Thank you very much for your suggestions! I have tried Fresh Falls and it's a lovely cleanser but not minty enough if I remember correctly. I'm glad you reminded me about it though, I hope I have a sample somewhere still that I could use again and recall what it's like. I really like 100% Pure and haven't tried that cleanser but their mint toner was very nice. The GOW also sounds very nice, I'm about to look into whether they ship o/s.

Septembergirl - The Osea cleansing mud is about the level of mintyness that I'm after but unfortunately that cleanser never really did anything for me. I really wanted to like it but in the end wasn't too thrilled with it.

Thanks again!

Cellex-C fresh complexion foaming cleanser has a minty feeling. I like the way it feels on my skin. It's 38 dollars. A bit pricey for some? Maybe they sell it for cheaper on ebay?

Mabsy,
I really like the Mint Buffing Beads from Renee Rouleau. It isn't a cleanser per se, but you could use it in the morning in place of a cleanser. It is very minty and tingly and the beads are gentle, but really remove the dead skin.
HTH!

Mmmm... the Renee Rouleau looks great! I just looked at the website - looks like an interesting range of products. Unfortunately they don't seem to ship o/s, so that one might be placed on hold for a while.

Sophias1920 - thanks heaps for the suggestion! I remember ages ago that this was a cleanser that I wanted to try (based on reviews) and I completely forgot about it!
