Review (3/5): so I was quite disappointed that I didn't love this product
I had very high hopes for this cleanser. I used this cleanser in combination with the Antioxidant Toner, which is also manufactured by Isabel Fay. I have used other Isabel Fay products in the past that I have thought very highly of, so I was quite disappointed that I didn't love this product.
First, the positives: this cleanser smells amazing. I love the light rose-petal smell. The cleanser feels a little thin when it comes out of the pump, and I felt like I needed to use a little more than I would with other brands in order to get a good lather. It removed my makeup and did not leave my skin feeling dry. I followed the cleanser with the Antioxidant Toner.
Now, for the negatives: these products have caused my acne-prone skin to have the worst breakout I have had in a very long time. I went from mostly clear skin to 10+ blemishes, most of which are cystic in nature. I changed nothing else about my skincare routine, so I can only conclude that the Isabel Fay products do not agree with my skin.
I believe that the ingredients are high-quality, but perhaps this product would be best suited for people with normal-dry skin rather than my acne-prone skin type. I cannot recommend this to people with acne-prone skin. I am currently in damage-control mode, trying to get my skin to return to calm and treat the breakouts. I noticed that this cleanser contains many high-quality oils; this should have been a red flag to me, since I know that most oils will cause precisely the type of results I experienced with my skin. A change in labeling to reflect the recommended skin types for this product could possibly prevent other people from experiencing the same unhappy results that I did.
I received this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.
