Hi - I'm new here, but I thought I'd post a rave for my favourite cleanser -- I started using it a few months ago.
It is Druide Tea Tree Oil Moisturizing Body Soap -- it's listed as a body soap, but I use it on my face. It is awesome -- I have combination skin - it is oily on my forehead and dry on the rest, and this cleanser completely balances it out. I've had problems with cleansers drying out my skin, but this does not dry out my skin at all. Also, I tend to get small bumps on my forehead and this keeps them under control.
I took this cleanser with me to India for 2 months and used nothing else while I was there. In spite of all of the pollution, sun, etc., in India, my skin stayed completely clear and the my skin colour also stayed pretty even! I was amazed, because normally I tend to tan more on my forehead, so every summer I end up with a multi-coloured face.
The ingredients are:
Aloe vera gel extract, extracts of coconut palm oils and corn sugar (alkyl poly-glycoside), vegetal glycerin, avocado oil, essential oils: melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree), thymus vulgaris L. thymoliferum (thyme) & eucalyptus citriodora (eucalyptus), lecithin, wheat proteins, guar gum, citrus seeds extracts & vitamin E (natural preservatives).
There is no detergent (SLS) in this cleanser, and the PH is listed as 5.5.
The price is also great - I'm in Vancouver, so I buy it from Capers and it's around $10.00 Canadian. It's also available at druide.ca
This soap also comes in different variations (with different essential oil blends) - there is also Citrus Zest, Lavender Flower and Almond, but I prefer the Tea Tree Oil one as it really helps to control my breakouts. |
