Clarins Cleansing Milk

I am in love with Clarins,they have some really excellent products delivering great results.I use Clarins cleansing milk every day to remove my makeup. I have been using it constantly for 3 years and not looking to switch to anything else, I even have the travel size for holidays.I have a large bottle 400ml which has a pump, the product is light green and lotion like with a mild fragrance,a characteristic of clarins products which don't smell like artificial scents which I am a great fan. I take time to massage the milk on my face and cup my face to create suction which helps to withdraw dirt and makeup from the skin,then wash it off with a warm flannel,tone with a clarins toner and moisturise.This product helps to cleanse, without drying out and stripping the skin.It truly leaves the skin refreshed,soft and supply.Clarins is brand that I would trust any day and always continue to use.Highly recommend.

Best suited to dry or sensitive skins

I got this as part of a very generous Clarins GWP. It’s not something I would ever choose for myself – I gravitate towards foaming cleansers, and I like them to be brightening or exfoliating.

The face wash itself is a pale mint green colour, which I find unusual. It’s quite a thick cream so can be hard to get out of the bottle. I find I need to bang it a few times to get it to come to the top of the bottle. Often too much comes out which is annoying, especially for such an expensive product.

After removing my makeup, I smooth this all over my face. It’s a cream cleanser so does not foam up. I like to massage it in for a few minutes before rinsing off with warm and then cool water.

I do feel like it leaves my skin clean. It’s very calming on the skin – I think it would be great for more sensitive or dry skins. I’m keen to try other Clarins cleansers as I have heard good things.

For reference, I have normal to oily skin that gets dehydrated and dry and flaky in the winter.

A new favourite!

I have been wanting to try a few different Clarins products for a while. The bottles always look so classy and I had heard really good things about their skin line being well formulated. When Farmers having a GWP and me having some Prezzy Cards happened at the same time I knew a Clarins haul would happen! In the Farmers GWP there were a few goodies - this cream cleanser being one of them.

The bottle of this is really nice. For the GWP I got a 100ml size which is really nice, plenty to try to decide whether you like it or not (It is half the usual size). The bottle is clear with red writing on it. Great for seeing how much is left. The tube is also squeezable which I love, makes it much easier to get the thick cream out. The tube also feels thin enough that it won't be too hard to cut open to get the last of the product out. The lid is white and really chunky, feels tight but easy enough to get on and off (even in the shower).

The product itself is green. Could be off putting but I don't really mind it. It does have a scent to it, kind of a clean scent but also fresh and herbal. I actually kind of like it because it smells like the skincare my Mum used to use when I was a kid. I love cream cleansers and this is no exception. I usually use this with a face cloth and warm water and it does remove most of my makeup really well although struggles with thicker eye makeup. I prefer to use this on my skin after I have taken my makeup off with some thing else. I find it feels really nice on the skin and leaves it feeling clean but not dry. I haven't had any problems with reacting to this cleanser.

I think this would be a great product for those with sensitive and dry skin (like myself). I really would advise trying to pick this up in a GWP when buying something else though to see if you like it first. I do have quite a few cleansers on the go at the moment but once I am done with them this is on my repurchase list.

Y so spendy!? *cry face*

A 10ml of this cleanser came in a mini pack with two other Clarins products and I was super excited because I haven't tried Clarins before, and I do like a good cleanser.

My little tube is cute, and my cleanser is a very light pastel blue color. It is thick and creamy and really quite delicious to rub all over my face. I use a facial sponge with mine as I like the slight exfoliation.

The smell is quite fresh. It says 'with alpine herbs' which I guess I can smell. It smells like fresh mountain side (with less goat). It's actually quite pleasant and I do like it! I was also very surprised when I washed it off my face - I used it once without the cleansing sponge and my face was soft, and its softer still with the sponge.

I don't think I would purchase a full sized bottle of this, as lovely as it is. The price is just too far out of my range, so I'll just try to savour this sample as much as I can!

So soft and beautiful

This is everything and more. It's so soft and beautiful on the skin. I love cleansing milks and this is by far my favourite, it lifts up the dirt and impurities on the skin. It smells divine due to the plant extracts. I love the way that my skin feels after using this, my skin feels so soft and supple.

Gentle cleansing

This cleanser is slightly oddly named. Cleansing 'milk' is a bit of a misnomer as, as another review points out, it can be hard to get out of the bottle and when it does come out it's easy to get too much at once.

However when you do use it, it's a gentle cleanser with a light scent, assumably from the alpine herbs. The light green colour is a little odd, but not bad.

Using it didn't strip my skin like some cleansers can. I'm not convinced the clean was deep enough, but I wasn't aware of the 'correct' way to use this cleanser (should have checked BR earlier!) so I shouldn't really comment on that!

All up a pleasant gentle product suited for drier skin types, but with a price tag like that you want to try before you buy.

Clarins cleanser nice but.....

I was given this cleanser and have enjoyed using it. Cleansing milk is probably the wrong term for it, as its definitely more of a cream. Smells nice, creamy texture, massages well. Does a great job of removing make up, even long stay foundations and lipstick.

My skin feels clean afterwards, definitely not tight and dry.

The only downside - and the reason I won't be buying it when it runs out - is the price. I cannot justify the price tag when there are other less expensive good cleansers out there.

So sorry Clarins, but I won't become a regular user of this product.

Tips: Don't use too much, a little goes a long way.

The perfect morning cleanser

I use this in the morning and it is just so comfortable and gentle on the skin. It doesn’t remove makeup so I use it in the morning as my skin doesn’t get that dirty at night. It smells nice but not overwhelming. Cleanse without stripping moisture but no residue on the face

Tips: If you can afford it, I use a good amount to give my face a good massage at the same time

Fresh face

The bottle is attractive enough with a flip top lid makes it nice and easy to squeeze this bluish lotion out. Has an interesting fragrance a little fruity a little bitter herb like and crisp . It’s soft and lifts dirt and makeup, I wet my face then put a reasonable blob size on my hand rub together then rub lightly and lightly pat this cleanser into my skin rinse and repeat, sort of like doing a quick light smack as if the plans of your hands pull the impurities out. And that it does it’s a nice gentle cleanser that leaves skin supple and clean. My skin doesn’t dry out using this cleanser I’m left with refreshed clean skin. No rubbing and running with this cleanser though more patting and rinsing. It’s nice and does a good job while leaving skin soft if you get the big bottle it lasts and lasts.
