I've been using this after trying it in my samplebar subscription, I've purchased the full size which is very generous for sizing. I really like the scent. The cleanser has a thick gel like consistency, and is easy to apply. I do need to make sure when washing it off, that it is properly rinsed off, as it is thick. It gently removes eye makeup as well.

Reviews
I love the pump bottle, very easy to use and one pump usually is enough. The consistancy of this cleasner Is a nice smooth thickness. The smell Is lovely and very suttle which is great. I love the fact that It has rosehip oil in it which my skin is in favour of. It leave's my skin feeling smooth and clean, the only downfall for my skin (which is combination) is that it seemed to dry it out abit and make my skin feel tight, which I did'nt think would happen as it contains rosehip oil and is soap-free and claims to be non drying., so for that reason I do no longer use this or have repurchased this product. It's just not for me sadly as it is really affordable.
Tips: some skin types will need a good serum or moisterzier to re hydrate the skin after cleansing.
This is a good basic average cleanser! I must be the only person in the world that is immune to rose-hip. So I gave this to my teenage brother that has sever acne to try out. Therefore I am writing this on his behalf and how well it worked for him.
At fist he was put off the scent but to me it smelled divine. So girly and rosey. One pump is enough and it therefore made it so much easier for someone in there teens especially boys to use.
It took about 3 weeks before we noticed a major difference. His pore were much clearer aswell as the blemishes where much smaller! No big bumps here! He seems much more confident now and he doesn't mind the scent due to how effective it was.
I first stumbled across this as a sample size from Sample Bar and was so impressed I went out and bought the rest of the products from this range! It has a lovely scent, it foams well and you don't need to use much to feel like you've given your skin a decent cleanse. I have very oily skin and since using this for a few months it has calmed down a bit.
Tips: If you want to try the range, at Countdown they have an introductory pack with the cleanser, body lotion etc in it in sample sizes - great for taking on holiday too! Its usually $25 but I've seen it on sale for $20
First of all the gentle smell of roses is absolutely divine. i love it! This stuff goes for miles. A full pump of this would probably do your entire body. i have very dry skin so Not only is it soap free (which means it won’t dry out my skin) but also contains Aloe Vera to help hydrate your skin while you cleanse it! its amazing.
I have to say I am a huge fan of anything with Rosehip in it, so I love this cleanser! The smell is delicious, the formula is really nice, and overall it does a good job! A little goes a long way with this, and my bottle has lasted ages, I also love the pump, so easy to get out when in the shower.
Only one quarm would be that sometimes I feel like it doesn't remove everything from my face, but nothing that another quick cleanse doesn't fix.
I am hard to sway from my standard skincare routine, & really, I need an exfoliator. This is the only reason I would not buy again. It smells amazing, the whole series is awesome, the night cream is my favourite, but as they don't offer an exfoliating cleanser, it's not something I would buy again. If you have dry or sensitive skin though, then I would definitely recommend this,
...so I had to try this cleanser. It comes with a pump and comes out in a gel form which turns into a creamy-foam with water like most cleansers do, just a bit creamier. It smells amazing, but I can't really describe the scent.
I need at least 2-3 pumps to cleanse my face and I use it twice as I don't feel it would do a very good job of removing my make-up.
It smells delicious though and I really like its consistency and how it doesn't dry out my skin. It's nothing special for me though, so once I used it up I won't be repurchasing this.
I love this! Bought the tester pack from countdown after deciding Cetaphil wasn't for me, and have been using it for two weeks. I've noticed my skin is firmer and my pores are smaller, and my blemishes on my chin and cheeks (which are usually out of control) have gotten much smaller. Would definitely recommend, great for a supermarket brand!
Tips: Use after removing make up with a make up remover or cleansing balm
I was really excited to try this product when I first saw it at Countdown. The packaging is great - I loved the brown bottle with the rose coloured label and bottle with the pump - the price is fabulous - I believe I paid $15 at Countdown.
The texture and constancy (thick) of the Cleanser is very nice and the application is easy and smooth on the face. I love the pump as you know exactly how much you need without wastage.
I found the cleanser did not remove my make-up (even when using a make-up wipe first to remove excess) my excess eye Make-up just seemed to smudge around my face. I was not too keen on the smell personally and that actually put me off the product.
At this stage I do not plan to re-purchase as it did not quite meet MY needs, however that does not mean I would not recommend to others as I do believe it is a great product.
