I got this in a beauty box and was really happy to have it since it was touted as a sensory experience to use. I go over the pros of this product first. It's a lovely, natural cream cleanser. It smells pleasant and has a slightly floral smell from the geranium oil and I personally am a fan of geranium scents. It's gentle and lovely to use on my face in the morning which is when I use a cream cleanser. No problem getting the product out of the tube and there's no leakage which has happened with some cleansers I've used. However, this is where the appreciation ends. I don't think it's "deep-clarifying facial wash" like the tube states, if it was I would be using it in the evening as my second cleanse after my oil cleanser. I personally didn't experience an amazing sensory experience using it. It wasn't like incredible layered, scent notes emerged when I massaged this on my face. And lastly, it's 40 bucks at the time of this review for a 125ml tube. That's pricey for a cream cleanser that's pretty average. There are two natural cream cleansers that sell for around this price point that I have tried and that I think are worth purchasing and unfortunately this is one of them. So I will not be repurchasing this.

Tips: This doesn't deep cleanse so I would recommend this for use in the morning when your skin doesn't need much cleansing. If you're after a natural cream cleanser I would recommend looking at other brands as you can find a cleanser that cleans just as well at a more affordable price.
Have you ever felt like you are experiencing a luxurious, relaxing facial just by the simple act of taking your make up off? Well, this is what it feels like to me when I use this cleanser!! It feels divine on the skin, it smells gorgeous, and it makes your skin feel wonderfully hydrated and freshened up after use. The blend of ingredients Evolu have used in this cleanser works exceptionally well: the smell reminds me of luxurious facials I’ve had in the past. I am thoroughly enjoying using this product - it makes the whole process of getting home from work in the evening and taking off my make-up so much more rewarding and enjoyable, and I look forward to using it at the end of each day! I just apply it in the shower with my hands, it doesn’t foam, it’s just a slightly creamy texture, and then I rinse it off gently with a face cloth while I am still in the shower. I can still smell the beautiful scent on my skin for a while after using it, and even hubby says he can smell it on my face after I use it & he also thinks it smells nice. Great product Evolu!
A 30ml luxury sample tube of Evolu Relaxing Creme Cleanser was included in a 2017 Christmas Advent Calendar that I'd ordered. The full sized tube is 125ml and also comes in a soft plastic squeeze tube, with a flip top lid, which makes it really easy to use in the shower.
The white creme cleanser has a very gentle non-foaming formula, that has a definite scent of geranium. It also contains calendula which helps to soothe skin, which stimulating skin repair, apricot extract to soften and hydrate, and St John's Wort for its calming effect on inflamed skin and blemishes. This creme cleanser is suitable for all skin types, although it specifically states that it's good for those with sensitive skin, problem dryness, or mature skin types.
I have very oily skin, and I'm usually not a fan of creme cleansers, as I find my oily skin needs a foaming cleanser to feel clean, but I must say that I was really impressed with this creme cleanser. Not only did it effectively remove all traces of make-up (including really stubborn eyeliner), it also left my skin feeling really clean and soft, while still providing a deep clean without managing to completely stripping my skin of it's protective mantle (the layer of natural moisture and oils that act as a protective layer on the skin).
To sum it up, this is a really great creme cleanser that does deliver on its promise of a deep clean, while still being very gentle on the skin. I'd definitely recommend it, and would repurchase this product.
Tips: Apply to dry skin and then massage the cream around gently to lift and remove make-up before rinsing it off
I don’t usually have back ups of products, as I hate clutter. But I make an exception for this product.
The tube is nice and simple. Plastic with the usual Evolu colours of green and white - looks classy.
The product itself is lovely. A nice cream that has a slight herbaceous smell. But for once I like it. The cream is lovely and feels fantastic on the skin. When you wash it off (I usually do this with a face cloth) my skin feels great and not dry at all. My skin love this.
I will continue to repurchase this, and keep an eye out at Farmers for specials.
I received this in one of the BBBE Cruelty Free Edition. It’s suitable for all skins types and supposed to be a deep-clarifying cleanser. There are no nasty chemicals contained in this and it’s made here in New Zealand. It has a lovely sweet floral fragrance which is strong, but pleasant. The cleanser is white with a light weight creamy consistency.
I used about a size of a 10c piece and gently rubbed it all over my face and neck. Even if I’m removing my makeup I did the same thing and it’s so gentle on the eyes as well that I didn’t have to worry about any stinging or reactions. The cleanser quickly absorbs into the skin and with a damp face cloth, I removed the cleanser and then washed my face with warm water. I did this both morning and night. My skin felt so soft and looked healthy. I have oily skin, but it didn’t dry out my skin or make it even more oily, instead my skin looked and felt hydrated. It also gives a refreshing sensation after using it.
This is one of the best cleaners of I’ve ever used. I think the price is fairly decent for a quality product like this and it does last a few months. I recommend it!
Tips: If you're removing makeup, rub the cleanser on the face and eyes, then leave a warm damp cloth on the face for few seconds before removing it. It helps soften the cleanser even more, so much of the makeup the can be removed.
Absolutely loved this cleanser, I have been using a different brand that reacted badly with my skin and made it dry, red, stinging and angry.
Evolu Crème Cleanser helped to get my skin back to normal, soothed it and helped get rid of the dryness.
Felt so light and cleansed my skin without over drying it. Also noticed a decrease in acne on my face. Left my face feeling fresh.
Tips: Follow up with Evolu Toner and moisturiser to leave your skin beautifully soft
This product was great at removing makeup while still being nice and creamy. However it did feel a little harsh on my skin sometimes especially if my skin was feeling very dry that day. The scent is a faint natural smell. The flip top lid was also very secure so there was never any leakage.
The packaging is simple, true to Evolu style. Generous in size, this cleanser is easily transported in is tube. When squished out, it's a fairly thick, white cream, fragrance free and easy to spread. On my sensitive skin, I've had no problems with this cleanser and my skin is particularly healthy at the moment. It's effective at gently removing makeup, including mascara. It doesn't dry out my skin afterwards and I feel it's just not stripping me of my oils like a lot of cleansers do. I am loving this stuff and recommend it to those wanting a gentle, no irritation cleanser.
Tips: Don't know that this would be suitable if you have oily skin? Perhaps sample first.
I got this in the BBBF box I purchased at the start of the year. I loved the Evolu toning mist and the overnight cream so I thought this one was a sure thing. Don't get me wrong I like it but it doesn't set my heart in fluffy mode like the others. I am used to using a more gel like texture rather than a cream when it comes to cleaners, so this was something that got me intrigued, It has a slight fresh scent that is pleasing to the nose so that was nice. The design lets off a clean, green image which I rather like. The cleanser is very creamy just as the name suggests. I would even go as far as to say it's quite velvety feeling between the fingers. It's very luxurious feeling on the skin that's for sure.
It says that it removes makeup including that stubborn eye makeup......(buzzer sound), wrong! It doesn't remove bugger all makeup off my face. At best it removes my bb cream and makes some very unattractive panda eyes. For $40 this is not acceptable in my books! I tend to use this in the shower to make it easier to wash off and to open up my pores for it to work its magic.
I find it super silky on my skin and almost like using a moisturizer to cleanse. It feels weird but I don't hate it. I use a flannel to wash it off because I feel like it does a better job of getting the product off without it leaving behind a greasy residue. Besides getting the cleanser off more efficiently, it helps remove more makeup than it would if I did it without the cloth.
I always follow up with the toning mist and moisturizer (either day or night) to give it the best results possible. Before using the other toner and moisturizer, my skin feels super soft and not sucked of all the moisture, like I have found from other cleansers. My skin is far more supple and clearer after continued use. I don't break out as much as I used to and I find my dry spots have cleared up yay! The part that makes me hhmmm about this cleanser is that it doesn't remove makeup like I need and the huge price I pay for it. If I look past these things it has the best results when teamed with the skincare range from Evolu. It is the most kind on my sensitive skin and for that I continue to use it.
Tips: Team with other Evolu skincare for best results
I received this in one of my BBBE boxes and was excited to use this as I have enjoyed 2 other products from the same brand. Packaging is an upside down squeeze tube, my favourite type of packaging. This one is coloured in a light lime green the same as the other products in this line.
I love the smell, it's balanced and not over powering. Perfect for use as my morning cleanser. Leaves my skin feeling gently refreshed and cleansed.
I don't like it so much as my evening cleanser. Only because it does not effectively remove my make up at all and I don't even wear foundation, just eye makeup and lippy.
It's my least favourite product out of the three I have tried (cleanser, spray toner and night cream). I like it enough but have other products that will do the job for a lot less so I most likely will not be repurchasing.
