كريم منظف ناعم للوجه Antipodes Grace Gentle Cream Cleanser & Makeup Remover

This is a very unique facial cleanser cream. However, I was initially shocked by it. Let me explain why.

Firstly, there are products that people say "the cream or foam barely lathers". Well, this cream does NOT lather at all. Not even a little bit. It has a consistency similar to a medium-density cream with a slightly oily base. It is easily squeezed out of the tube. It glides smoothly on the skin and feels incredibly pleasant. However, it may be misunderstood because it feels like you're just applying cream to your face (I remind you that it doesn't lather on dry or wet skin, or even if you try to whip it up by adding water drop by drop). Despite this, it cleanses wonderfully! However, this cream with its creamy and oily base may not be suitable for oily skin (although this is not certain).

Secondly, the scent of the cream. It smells noticeably like cinnamon with an additional nuance. It also has slightly creamy and sweet notes. The scent is warm. For me, the cinnamon scent was a surprise. But I love the scent of cinnamon, so it worked for me. However, there are people who dislike or cannot tolerate the scent of cinnamon. This should be taken into account.

When you rinse off the cream, it may seem like there is a slight greasiness left on your face or that the cream hasn't been completely washed off. In reality, this feeling is deceptive. It is an unreal sensation of cleanliness and moisturization of the skin. The cream does not dry out the skin at all, but rather moisturizes it, softens it, and makes it very soft and tender. It feels like you haven't just cleansed your face, but have already applied skincare. The skin is transformed and grateful.

It does not clog pores, provoke inflammation or blemishes, or cause irritation or allergies (this is based on my experience + my skin is prone to allergic reactions).

I am confident that this facial cleanser cream would be suitable for dry (especially), normal, dehydrated, and selectively combination skin (my skin is combination, sometimes normal, with small dry patches in the winter). However, it should be tested on oily skin. Everyone's skin is different. It will also be appreciated by those who love the scent of cinnamon. It is great for autumn/winter. It may be a bit heavy for summer (I think).

I use it exclusively as a second step in my cleansing routine. After using a hydrophilic oil (balm, sherbet for makeup removal). I haven't even tried using it as a standalone makeup remover.

For me, this cream is very unique. Out of the numerous facial cleansers I have tried, I have never come across anything like it. Despite this, my skin is grateful for such gentle and soft cleansing.
