Fruit Stem Cell complex from the Apple and Grape, Resveratrol CoQ10 and skin-friendly vegan probiotics gently remove make-up and impurities, rinsing away dull surface cells and balancing skin flora. Apricot and Borage Oils are infused to rejuvenate dehydrated, for a fresh glow and a rejuvenated complexion. Resveratrol and CoQ10, super antioxidants, support skin well-being and essential building blocks, collagen and elastin, for a softer, smoother appearance and youthful vitality.
Made in USA, Andalou Naturals is 98% nature-derived, Non-GMO Project Verified, and vegetarian with a large vegan offering as well as gluten free and cruelty free and never tested on animals.
PhytoCellTec® Fruit Stem Cell Science is the signature innovation and is formulated within their products, using a blend of nature’s most potent bioactive stem cells from the Heirloom Apple, Grape, Swiss Alpine Rose, Argan Tree and Hemp Plant to target skin cells, supporting skin protection, restoration and radiance.
Their Fruit Stem Cell Science® is infused with unique and innovative ingredients such as Turmeric, Kombucha, Purple Carrot and Probiotics to provide skincare solutions to target different skincare concerns.
Do note that skincare guru, Paula Begoun, has a different take on their Fruit Stem Cell claims - citing that there is no research to support the claims of regenerating skin or functioning like your skin's own stem cells, which would push this product from its status as a cosmetic to a drug. The notion that plant stem cells can "renew dormant cells, repair damaged cells, or regenerate healthy cells" may be true for a plant, but it isn't for human skin.
I first came across Andalou Naturals Apricot Probiotic Cleansing Milk review from Sesame at Vivawoman and subsequently purchased it. This is my 3rd product from Andalou Naturals - you can check out my previous reviews on Andalou Naturals Instant Brightening Face Mask and Andalou Naturals Luminous Eye Serum. Their products are easily available on Iherb ( quote OKI787 for a further 10% off your order ) and just need 1 week to arrive in Singapore.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
Andalou Naturals Apricot Probiotic Cleansing Milk comes in a gorgeous purple bottle which is a sight to behold on my bathroom cabinet. It is a striking colour in contrast with all my other toiletries in the bathroom.

The pump dispenser dispenses the white milky contents easily till the last 1/5 where it can't reach the end so it was a hassle to twist open the cap and scoop out the contents through the narrow gap opening for the last 2 weeks.
That said, the apricot scent smells absolutely divine and the light-weight milky consistency is so gentle to the skin. I have to admit that initially, I did not like it as much, as I prefer thick and creamy milk cleansers but I have grown accustomed to it and liking it much more thereafter.
Performance and Ingredients
Honestly speaking, I am so glad to have try out Andalou Naturals Apricot Probiotic Cleansing Milk. I use it as the 2nd cleanse and the gentle cleansing milk has been a godsend for irritated, sensitive and dehydrated skin days.
There is no stripping after-feel, its non-greasy and my skin just feel clean and nourished. Of course, I do hope the anti-aging ingredients like Resveratrol and Goji Berry would make my skin look better and "younger" but I am not expecting much from a cleanser which is only on my skin for 3 minutes, to do a spectacular difference.
In terms of ingredients, Andalou Naturals Apricot Probiotic Cleansing Milk claims that Fruit Stem Cell Complex and probiotic microflora calm irritation and stimulate cell turnover for improved dermal immunity while nourishing aloe vera, apricot and borage oils gently loosen and remove make-up and impurities and restoring intracellular moisture and a healthy glow.
Resveratrol : Resveratrol Q10 super antioxidants support skin's wellbeing and youthful vitality.
