Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cleanser

This is fantastic basic cleanser for morning or night. It's a perfect mix between a cream and a gel. It foams up a little to thoroughly remove makeup and clean skin but never so much as to strip or dehydrate my skin. No matter what condition my skin is in, I can always rely on this cleanser to clean my skin without causing any irritation. This cleanser has no discernible fragrance which I really appreciate in my skin care routine. You can use this to double cleanse but I find one thorough cleanse to be enough. It rinses cleanly away to reveal comfortable, clean skin. This cleanser is great value as it is quite a large bottle. Highly recommend.

I always love a Kiehl's skincare product and their Ultra Facial Cleanser is no exception. One of my favourites! It cleanses very thoroughly but gently, and never leaves my fairly dry skin with any tautness or discomfort, and I find it removes most impurities and light makeup with one cleanse. Only after a full makeup would I need a first cleanse with facial oil or micellar water. Some micellar waters can be a little drying, so to follow with Ultra Facial Cleanser is a good protection, with its blend of moisturizing squalane, Apricot kernel, Vitamin E and Avocado Oil. Kiehl's are well-known for their natural, plant -based ingredients which is why I love them! This cleansing gel has almost no scent, so I know I am not putting chemicals or synthetic perfumes on my face, just a gently foaming gel that leaves my skin nicely clean and prepared for the rest of my skincare. At $30 for a 150 ml tube this is not  budget beauty, but it foams and spreads so well, I really need only a small amount. That is good news for my skin AND for my budget.

I have used this cleanser when I had sensitive skin and it is very gentle on my skin where it did not cause any breakouts. It does a good job cleaning out any impurities without drying out my skin. Given that it is a gentle cleanser, I do not recommend to use it as makeup remover. Recommend it to all skin type.

I've been using this for over 6 years now and haven't touched another cleanser since. It's very tough when it comes to removing makeup and dirt off your skin but also very gentle on the skin.  I have combination skin (it gets super dry in winter) but this cleanser does a fantastic job at not stripping my skin any further. I use it twice, once to remove makeup and the second to cleanse my skin. Only a small amount is needed as it's very easy to distribute the creamy product

I purchased a small bottle of this while travelling overseas. Long haul travel played havoc on my skin and I found this was great at keeping my skin feeling clean without over drying. A great addition to my skin care routine
