While the Simple Kind to Skin Moisturising Facial Wash has lots of good qualities, overall I have found it too inconvenient to be likely to purchase it again.
The packaging is great, no problems there, and I like how Simple keeps such a strong focus on using natural ingredients and creating kind-to-skin products. It's the product itself that I don't really like. It came out from the tube in a very thick, almost balm-like consistency after sitting in my cold bathroom, and it was very difficult to work into a lather. For this reason I found it much more annoying to use than something like an automatic foaming pump cleanser, which is dispersed and ready to go instantly. In the shower this wasn't such a problem — I think the heat from the shower helped to lather the product up much quicker.
After cleansing my skin didn't feel overly dried out, which was good, but still nicely cleaned and refreshed. If this wasn't such a difficult to 'prepare' product (and from a parent company that tests on animals) I would possibly consider repurchasing.
This products did not come with any fancy packaging, which is so much better. From the first time I used it, my skin felt silky soft. I loved it, and will certainly continue to use it. Although it may seem expensive, you really do not need to use much, and it does foam up nicely. It is fantastic for anyone who finds that soap dries out their skin. I am sure this will last, but when it runs out, I will certainly be replacing it.
Tips: Make sure you put a small amount in wet hands, it then foams up nicely. Do not use too mcuh
