Doesn't tick ALL the boxes

This product is almost perfect. It comes in a neat pump container - perfect for the shower. It smells lovely, very natural smelling and you know it's got to be good for your skin. It lathers nicely, a little goes a long way. It's lovely and creamy, and makes my skin feel so fresh and clean and soft after and it does a good job of removing my make up as it says it should. The only downside is that it says its supposed to be gentle for eye areas as it's all natural ingredients, but it's not gentle at all. It stings really bad if you happen to open your eyes before washing off all the residue. The point is being able to get off my mascara and eyeliner, so there is no way to avoid my eye area as this is the area that needs most remover product!! This is a big downside for me, as it feels almost quite blinding and painful and I come out of the shower with red itchy eyes. I've used other removers with no scent and no soreness when it gets in your eyes, so comparing it to these, I would not use it again for this one reason.

Thanks for the heads up! I was thinking of trying this, but as I have sensitive skin around the eyes, will give it a miss!

Neutrogena Naturals Fresh Cleaning + Makeup Remove

Great 2 in 1 product, I appreciate the attempt Neutrogena are making to get away from the heavy chemical products they are used to making. Does what is says it will, does not dry the skin out. Removes all traces of Make-Up.

Nearly all natural

I love this cleansing wash. I love that it's nearly all natural, in this day and age when we apply so many chemicals to our face it's nice to know there are some products we can use at the end of the day that are like this. It smells lovely, it cleanses incredibly well and you only need a small amount so it lasts really well too.

GORGEOUS!

I have just tried out the Neutrogena Naturals Fresh Cleaning + Makeup Remover, and I am completely in love! This is such a gorgeous product and turns removing makeup at the end of the day into a pampering experience.

Firstly, I have always loved Neutrogena's range of products for more sensitive skin (I use their moisturiser and gentle cleanser too). So I was excited to try this makeup remover as well. The packaging is great, so handy that it comes in a pump bottle. I also love that it is environmentally friendly and has a more organic feel than the brand's other products.

The product itself has a surprising consistency, very similar to that of liquid soap. But it is gorgeously gentle and moisturising on your skin, easily removes all traces of makeup without any irritation at all, and leaves your skin feeling fresh and clean without any tightness or dryness. One pump is enough to remove a full face of foundation with no trouble at all.

I also love the scent so much, reminds me of green apples or something fresh and fruity like that.

Gentle, but not as effective

I purchased a bottle about a few months ago, and I have relied on it as my sole makeup remover. I have sensitive, oily and acne prone skin.

I found that this makeup remover is not as effective in cleansing deep into the pores, and after using this product to remove my sunscreen and BB cream, I find that I am more prone to getting clogged pores.

This makeup remover also does not work at all for my Benefit waterproof mascara, and to my horror it did not manage to budge my MAC Liquidlast eyeliner at all.

I guess the benefit of this product is that it is meant to be gentle for light makeup, and it may be a little less harsh on the skin. Perhaps it would be more suitable for those with sensitive and dryer skin. However, do bear in mind that the fragrance is pretty strong, and may not work well for those with really sensitive skin. It smells really really good and refreshing though.

Not as 'natural' as I expected

I had high hopes for this product as I found the other Neutrogena products I have previously tried were really good. I like the idea of a more 'natural' version of the Neutrogena that doesn't test on animals and uses natural ingredients, a nice change towards more eco-friendly products for such a well-known brand.

I found the packaging reallllly difficult to get open to get the pump working! I almost gave up. The pump-style bottle is my favourite style of packaging for cleansers though as I like how they help you to manage how much liquid is being dispersed. With the Fresh Cleaning+ you only need one pump.

I wet my face and hands as directed and lathered the cleanser before applying it to my face and rubbing it in. For a cleanser it is very strongly fragranted, it actually reminded me a lot of Garnier shampoo which is a nice scent but not for a cleanser/makeup remover. I personally hate really strongly scented skincare products as I don't want to be adding else unnecessary onto my skin and for a 'natural' product I had expected something a lot more subtle.

I found it removed my face make-up well, did okay with one layer of my Falsies mascara but struggled to remove my eyeliner properly, 2 layers of mascara still left panda eyes galore and it didn't even budge my Collection Cosmetics mascara, which is what I initially purchased for removing.

Afterwards my skin did feel clean and fresh, a little tight but not too bad. I wouldn't say it left it 'soft', you should definately moisturise after this.

I wouldn't purchase this again because the scent really is too overpowering for my taste and it wasn't nearly as effective as a makeup remover as I had hoped.

I would recommend this if you don't wear a lot of eye makeup and you're wanting a multi-purpose cleanser/makeup remover and don't mind a strong scent.

Tips: Be gentle on your eyes if you're using this to remove your eye makeup - don't go rubbing hard!

Neutrogena fresh cleaning and makeup remover

Really love this product, I'm on my second bottle now. I love the way it cleansers and removes my make up in one step. It works really well with my clairsonic brush also. Leaves my skin clean without being tight or dry. This product has saved me money as I now no longer needs face wipes to remove my make up.

Not as good as I hoped it would be

I have used a lot of neutrogena products and loved them, so I was a little disappointed when I tried this. The main reason for my disappointment was that the product stung my eyes despite its claims to remove eye makeup gently. It also left my skin feeling slightly tight, and i have normal skin

My new fave cleanser

I love this stuff! It's natural, smells good, is a creamy texture, does not dry my skin out AND removes make up and waterproof mascara with ease.

Tips: You don't actually need a lot, one pump is enough

Great natural brand

I bought this as I was on a hunt for a cleanser without all the nasty stuff. However, found it didn't remove all my makeup or noticeably improve my skin in the long run. It does leave the skin nice and smooth and clean feeling straight after use though and does smell fantastic.

Tips: I found it works a lot better if you splash your face first and leave it on for 30secs before washing off.
