[ Review ] : Grown Alchemist Gentle Gel Facial Cleanser



Product Description
This delicate blend of botanical extracts gently removes impurities from sensitive facial skin without stripping, allowing skin to breathe freely leaving skin thoroughly cleansed, calm and soothed.

With the last purchase of my favourite cleanser, Grown Alchemist Hydra-Restore Cream Cleanser Olive Oil and Plantago Extract and a mist toner, I was able to choose a free gift and I chose a travel-sized Grown Alchemist Gentle Gel Facial Cleanser from the limited choices available.

Packaging, Scent and Texture



The complimentary Grown Alchemist Gentle Gel Facial Cleanser that comes with my purchases is a travel sized version that is housed in a similar black opaque bottle with 50 ml contents. However, instead of a pump dispenser, the travel size version has a flip top cap which is understandable.

I adored the uplifting scent which makes cleansing such an enjoyable experience. The texture is runny, lightweight and seems mild and gentle but isn't a gel as claimed. There were some light suds during lathering which I feared that the cleanser may be drying for my skin.

Performance and Ingredients

In terms of performance and effectiveness, skin is left clean, smooth and very soft but thereafter, the taut sensation appeared several minutes later after cleansing which isn't a good sign. This usually meant that the cleanser is not suitable for me as its drying for my combination with surface dehydration.

Grown Alchemist Gentle Gel Facial Cleanser contains the following ingredients :
Chamomile, bergamot, and willow bark : visibly reduce pores and age spots
Polyphenols and mucilages from cold pressed rose petals : leave skin toned and soothed
Polysaccharides from Aloe Vera : help skin stay beautiful, calm, and supple

Conclusion 

To conclude, Grown Alchemist Gentle Gel Facial Cleanser isn't as gentle as it claims to be, at least for my skin type. The taut sensation after cleansing was a deal-breaker for me, so I won't be purchasing this cleanser.

If you are looking for a nourishing cleanser suitable for dehydrated and sensitive skin, then check out Grown Alchemist Hydra-Restore Cream Cleanser Olive Oil and Plantago Extract which I have gone through 4 tubes with another 2 tubes as backup.
