SKIN by ecostore Gentle Cleanser Review

Firstly, the packaging of this product is fantastic. It give a nice easy to use product. The cleanser doesnt come out all clumped. It comes out in a nice smooth texture and you can pump as much as you want out, but i wouldnt recommend going over board. You only need to use a little pump as it spreads onto your face quite easily. Its smooth silky texture feels good against your skin and the smell is quite refreshing and natural smelling. Easy to apply and easy to wash off. Makes your face feeling fresh and cleansed.

I have only tried a few Ecostore products before but nothing from their skincare range.  So when I was selected for this trial I was super stoked. I started using the products as soon as they arrived.

The cleanser comes in a cardboard box which has all the ingredients and a stunning image on the side which is supposed to depict the Marlborough Sounds where the marine extract is sourced, very cool. It comes in a handy pump bottle with 140ml of product and is a light beige in colour.

It is quite thin and you definitely don't need to use much. I use this in the morning, I like to wet my face in the shower then massage this all over. It smells great and does a fantastic job at cleaning my face. I don't get any irritation at all and no horrible tight feeling.  Just clean, fresh skin.

This is a lovely lightweight gentle but effective cleanser. A fantastic list of ingredients including calendula which is supposed to soothe irritated or inflammed skin.  My skin looks amazing and that is thanks to this cleanser paired with the moisturiser and night cream. Love it!

Recently my skin had an allergic reaction to something I used and so I hadn’t been using anything on my skin for a while so this was the perfect time to trail something new after the dust had settled.

Out of the 3 products this is probably the one I expected to think was just ok but it was amazing and this surprised me.

It was a gentle and great way to start using skincare again.

So they recommend doing a test patch which I usually do. I have sensitive skin and this has worked well for me. Perhaps it’s because it doesn’t have a lot of what a lot of other products have - parabens etc. Very gentle and mild. Didn’t hurt my eyes and it didn’t make my skin flare up. I found this much more effective than another brands natural cleansing product I’ve used - no comparison this actually worked cleansing my skin.

There was no product build up which is a problem I had when I used the goodness cleanser for example. It’s a beige cream cleanser that doesn’t really leather but it does spread well and it does wash. One pump was plenty. It smelt strong but I think that’s because I haven’t been using anything for a while but I adjusted quickly. It’s a floral scent that kind of reminds me of calendula??? Definitely similar to a calendula weldeda product I’ve used. I am not the biggest fan of that sort of scent but with something that’s good for your skin and more natural based beggars can’t be choosers. I’m prepared to let scent slide if I means I am being greener.

The pump bottle is really sleek. It definitely is my cup of tea - the packaging and pump bottles. Really nice look seeing the set lined up in the bathroom and spotting the subtle green differences in the lids for the different products.

In terms of effectiveness this cleanses and hydrates so I have to give it points for that. It doesn’t leave me dry and itchy like a lot of other cleaners I’ve used. I definitely could use this in the morning and didn’t have that urgent feeling of needing to moisturise. Night time it accompanied makeup removal and cleaning without overdrying. Eye makeup I would use this on a flannel with water to remove the stubborn mascara gently. I usually do this with any cleanser though.

Pleasantly surprised.

I came into this review with high hopes and it matched up pretty well. I love the clean design and packaging of these products. The pump put out just the right amount of product (I have been battling with one that was far too generous prior to eco skin). The product went on nice and smooth and made my skin feel lovely after I washed it off. One big downside was the smell. It wasn't horrible but definitely disn't scream luxury - it actually made me think hospital... not ideal

This really is a lovely cleanser to use. It was so gentle on my skin leaving it feeling clean, smooth and not tight at all. The pump bottle that it comes in is fantastic for use in the shower and while I thought the scent was a little strong, once using it, it was a light fragrance that didn't linger. I have really enjoyed using this cleanser for my dry skin and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a hydrating cleanser.

Contemporary packaging signalling this is an eco friendly product, which is easily definable by size and description. This product comes in a 140ml pump bottle and each pump is a good amount of product, possibly a little too much. This item delivered what it said it would but the scent was a little off putting for me. The Cleanser was easy to apply and left my skin feeling clean but not tight.

First impression was good, I loved the design on the side of the box, in a green/orange marine gradient. The packaging of the pump bottle was nice and easy to use, dispensing the right amount. The cleanser itself is the same creamy beige colour as the bottle. It has an organic natural smell, which while not unpleasant, wasn't pleasant either. I patched tested a few hours before to just ensure no issue. The cream was more like a lotion, and on the skin it almost takes the appearance of a silky foam cleanser without the foam, as opposed to a true cream cleanser. My skin felt clean after, and it removed my BB Cream and light make up well, however I had to use a bit to remove my lipstick. Washed off fine, skin felt nice.

I was excited to try this as I do like to try and use eco friendly products. I love the look of the packaging although i find with pumps you loose out on the last little bit you can't get out of the bottle. It had an earthy fragrance with was unoffensive. My skin felt clean and refreshed afterwards. I'd use it again.

I was quite happy with ecostore cleanser. I liked the simple packaging and the lid. It was helpful having a pump as you get a good measured amount. I found this especially helpful when using in the shower. This cleanser did not foam but still cleaned makeup off well. There was very little left when I used a eye makeup remover that was only needed for my mascara. The smell was strong but pleasant and I didn’t find it to linger.

I am thttiled to have been selected to trial this ecostore cleanser as part of the skin care regime range. The cleanser comes nicely and discreetly packaged. There’s an understated elegance about the packaging mostly due to its simple and subtle pastel colours. The same is also true for the actual dispensing bottle that the cleanser comes in. The product dispenses easily and is easy to apply to either wet or dry face. It’s got a smooth, silky texture and washes off easily. The face feels soft and clean after use and there is no dryness or irritation. It’s a mild, gentle cleanser that does the job without stripping your face of its natural oils or moisture. Oh and it smells great too.
