ilovesephora's Full Review: The Body Shop Body Shop Vitamin C Cleansing Face P...
I am always on the search for the perfect cleanser for my dry skin. My latest attempt is a product from The Body Shop that was highly recommended to me by the sales girl at the store. Ive learned that if I want a good suggestion on a product from the Body Shop Im better off getting it from an Epinions member then listening to the sales girls, it seems like they just want to sell me, whatever is their selling item of the time.
The cleanser they suggested to me was The Body Shop Vitamin C Cleansing Face Polish, I was told this is a scrub and cleanser in one that is gentle for every day use and best for dry sensitive skin. This product comes in a bright orange squeeze tube holding 3.38 ounces of product.
This product is of medium consistency; it is a clear gel with tiny exfoliating orange pieces. It has a very pleasant sweet scent of oranges.
I have been using this product for the last few weeks. I really like the idea of a scrub that is gentle, but effective and safe for everyday use. I use a little dollop the size of a dime each morning to cleanse my face. The scent of this product is really refreshing and true, so it uplifts me each morning.
This cleanser lathers up nicely, fairly quickly. It is effective at removing most of my makeup including eye makeup, without irritating my skin or eyes in any way. The scrubbing pieces are nice and scrubby, and not exactly the most gentle of all. I wouldnt say this is safe for sensitive skin as I was told.
The scrubbing pieces are orange jojoba beads, they dissolve and dont get in the way when Im rubbing the stuff onto my face. The cleanser rinses off my skin easily and leaves it fresh and clean.
However I havent noticed any improvement in the condition of my skin with continued use of this product. My skin isnt any smoother, any more even or any brighter. The exfoliating properties of this product have not impressed me. This is just a good cleanser that truly cleanses my skin well without drying it out. Also the scent is certainly fun and refreshing.
I am going to recommend The Body Shop Vitamin C Cleansing Face Polish to someone with normal to dry skin. It is not gentle enough for sensitive skin or for acne prone skin. Good news is that is lathers nicely and smells juicy. But no long term benefits for dry skin.
The Body Shop Vitamin C Cleansing Face Polish is available at The Body Shop stores and www.thebodyshop.com. The price is $14.00.
What www.thebodyshop.com says: A daily face wash with orange jojoba micro-beads to gently exfoliate and reveal smoother skin. The antioxidant vitamin C protects skin and revitalizes.
