Snowberry Gentle Cleanse & Tone Soft Foaming Cleanser

This is a beautiful cleanser, love the way my skin feels after, clean but not stripped. The brown colour is a little weird at first, but the Snowberry rep described as caramel when I had a lovely Snowberry facial - so now I just think of it as being a sweet treat for my face.

This is an interesting product. The packaging is pleasant enough, an air tight pump tube.

But this Snowberry Gentle Remineralising Toner has "A superior, soft-foam cleanser that tones and replenishes the skin."

This part has me puzzled, what is it's exact purpose?

It's a nice enough product to use although I'm not partial to the scent. That's just me though, generally speaking I prefer un-scented products.

The colour though - just no. It's a puzzling brown colour the likes of which I've never seen in skincare products before.

It leaves your skin feeling very refreshed, I will say that. I haven't been using it for long enough to have a fixed opinion as to whether it works or not but short term use indicates a promising response. I am surprised at the price though

This inspired something I rarely do.... a post on the brands FB page raving about this product.

I'm another who can't work out why this isn't called what it is - a gentle, balancing, gorgeous cleansing gel.

I picked this up in the 2015 Beautiful Christmas Advent Calendar in a 30 ml size, which disappointingly only lasted a few weeks. For $55 I would have expected it to last longer, but it really just doesn't last long. That's it's one flaw though.

The packaging is gorgeous, and I love the pump dispenser. The product is a soft caramelly shade, and a gel like formula. It managed to clean and balance my face perfectly without lathering, stripping, drying, irritating, breaking out or being harsh in any way, shape or form. It's almost like taking a gel made of your skin, and using it to replace any flaws in what's on your face. Somehow, it just magically renders your facial skin at its best.

There is a soft, pleasant scent that doesn't linger, and my sin was left soft, clean, perfectly balanced, and looking amazing.

I just can't justify $55 every few weeks to achieve that, unfortunately. I would LOVE to be able to use this religiously!

I received this just before Christmas I was so over the moon with excitement as I have heard many good things about snowberry products but had never ventured out and Brought any myself so I read the box (only the front) and it says "remineralising toner" perfect I think, a toner. So after I cleanse I went to put it on my face hmmm consistency is a bit strange for a toner so I get the box again and read the back and it's actually a cleanser, a bit odd but ah well.

The brown coloured, gel type cleanser has a bit of a scent but not enough to distinguish what it actually is. 2 pumps out of the pump top bottle is enough to cleanse my face.

It only very slightly foams and you have to scrub it around your face a few times to get the foam.

After I pat my face dry my skin feels and looks amazing, having dry skin I steer clear from cleansers that feel like they strip more moisture from your skin than anything else and I was so happy when this just left it almost glowing and ready for the rest of my routine.

I probably have 2 more uses left in the tube before its finished I will be repurchasing this but in the 100ml size as its roughly the same price as this tiny tube. Can't say enough about this cleanser except how amazing it is!

I was stoked to received my first Snowberry product in the Beautiful Christmas NZ box last year. I was even more stoked because I had just run out of toner and didn't have to repurchase a new one - so I thought. I was surprised to find the 'toner' in a pump bottle and thought my eyes were deceiving me when I thought it looked like cream from the outside.

I didn't even register it was a cleanser even as I was pumping the gel-like product into my hand until I read the back of the bottle while using it in the shower and found that it's a "cleanser that tones and replenishes the skin". I stopped mid action because that meant I had just cleansed my face 3 times and toned it once? (Cleansed twice with my normal cleanser and cleansed again and toned with Snowberry).

I love the packaging, lightweight, white with minimal colour. It's quite compact so it takes up little room when traveling and there's no issue with leakage. I do feel that the name of the product is confusing because I don't know many people who would associate the word toner with "cleanser" right from the get go.

I use one pump and a half for my entire face and it has a natural semi sweet scent to it. It doesn't really foam at all and remains slick on my skin as I try to massage it in. Most of the time I can massage 'cleansers' into my skin so that I can't detect it's original form but with this it remains gel-like right until I wash it off. I was surprised that something so gentle on the skin could make my skin feel so tight and squeaky clean. My skin felt smooth and soft once I patted it dry.

I'm not sure I could justify $55 for 30ml or is it priced that way because it's 2-in-1 and it has natural ingredients? Does it do the job? I believe so but if you're like me who cleanses twice at the end of the day (oily skin) but don't necessarily tone twice then it's not really for me. Would I recommend it to others though? Absolutely.

I booked into a "snowberry facial" at my local life pharmacy which was a great way to try a heap of their products and have them explained and recommended to me. So I never made the toner mistake others have made, I bought it knowing it was a cleanser, and a cleanser that would be suitable for my skin. I also bought some other products of theirs too - which I love <3 The brown tea coloured gel has, in my opinion, no foaming action. I was told to only use a small amount and that it wouldn't hardly foam so I knew to expect that too. I use it with a konjac sponge and love the way it makes my skin feel afterwards, very smooth and clear with no residues left on my skin. Straight onto makeup this is not really that effective, I use a makeup remover or balm first and use this cleanser solely to clean my skin, not clean makeup off my skin if that makes sense? I have found it lasts for ages using it this way rather than wasting it trying to get heavy makeup off. I really like it, have repurchased it and would recommend it to others.

I was completely fused by this product as it stated it was a toner but was a face foaming wash. I had a love hate relationship with this item & just wanted to get it used up. I wanted to love it given the brand name but I didn't come to love it. I got this item in my NZ brand Beautiful Chr6box of 2015 so I didn't pay full price for item thankfully because this is a highend item. I found it had a pungent scent & has a brown gritty appearance. Its packaging was a nice sturdy pump bottle where the product would disperse out of pump & I would put into my palms & add warm water then the wash would foam up of which applying to my face. I found it ho-hum it would either strip my skin or leave me to break out so my end result of using this was not a good one.

A friend and I attended a Snowberry evening at a local pharmacy. They were giving this away as a GWP so of course I was lured in! A suspect this was a gift with purchase due to the confusing name. It said 'Gentle Remineralising Toner' on the bottle but 'Gentle Cleanse & Tone' on the box. It is in fact a cleanser.

This has lasted me about 12 weeks and I have used it once a day as a morning cleanse. I like the pump packaging which dispenses a small amount. You do only need one pump. I think if it was in a squeeze bottle I would end up using much more than I need and going through this very quickly. I use it with a konjac sponge and it leaves my skin feeling clean but not taut or squeaky. I have not tried using this in the evenings as I don't think this small amount would remove make up effectively. I will definitely look at repurchasing this as I actually find it quite hard to find a face wash that doesn't leave my skin feel tight and in need of heavy moisturisers.

I scored this little beaut in the Beautiful Christmas Advent calendar. What a little pocket rocket. It is in a gorgeous 30ml opaque white pump bottle, which allows you to use all of the product in the bottle.

The product itself is a smooth, gel texture which goes a long way, one pump does my entire face and neck which is great. It feels cooling and soft on my skin when it is rubbed in. Once my face is dry it feels moisturized, soft yet deep cleaned.

The scent is incredible, it smells, floral and fresh but similar to an elegant sensual perfume. It is really delicious and I think this is also why I like it so much!

Repurchasing - Yes I would repurchase as it works so well with my skin, and I know they go on sale at Farmers so 100ml for $55 isn't too bad for a luxury product.

This product has now been renamed "Gentle Cleanse & Tone" (at least that is what the bottle in my shower says). This is a lovely Cleanser, gentle & makes my skin feel so soft afterwards. This does not remove makeup - which is fine by me as I rarely wear it. The downside is the cost at $55 for only 100mls! I will likely go back to Antipodes Juliet Cleanser for $39 for twice as much.
