   I love this cleanser! Makes a nice aromatherapy. I use it with my Clarisonic Mia. It’s a little pricey, but when I use it along with my Mia, all I need is just one pump in the center of the brush head. With twice daily use, the small size has lasted about 8 months, and it’s about 25 percent full.

   Its an ok cleanser. I’ve had worse but really it doesn’t do anything special to my skin. It doesn’t dry it out which is good and smells nice but there are better ones out there. For the price (26.5 CAD) Id expect something that performs better

   I am an avid Aveda fan .. well it all started with their hair care and I eventually fell in love with their face products as well. They seem to be the only company that my skin doesn’t hate, lol. This stuff smells fantastic, and leaves my oily skin squeaky clean. I have acne prone skin, and since I started using this .. I have seen great improvement with my overall skin condition; less oil, smaller pores and I think after every wash I can hear my skin say “ah, thank you!” 🙂 lol

   This cleanser is for normal to oily skin. Its a concentrated, gel consistency, you do not need alot. It does not lather to alot of bubbles, cleanses oil well while being gentle. Does not strip my dry cheeks while cleansing my oily t-zone well.

   I liked the pump dispenser, only wished it came with a cap. I use one pump in the morning and two pumps at night. It removes light makeup pretty well, after this I’ll use a makeup remover for my concealer and at the same time run it over my face and i’m all done.

   It has a herbal scent, ie lavender etc.

   My HG cleanser.

   Overall a great cleanser for anyone who has oily/combination skin types. I’ve used this product off and on for the past 10 years. I mainly use this in the hotter summer months because it leaves my skin super clean living out in the humid south .

   REALLY drying. Made my face appear very irritated. Probably a wonderful oily skin product.

   I feel like I’m getting a spa experience every time I use this. The scent is so fresh and herbal and soothing. The gel-to-creamy lather texture is really nice. This rinses clean with no residue and always leaves my skin feeling soft and refreshed, and it doesn’t strip my already dry skin. Works beautifully with the moisturizer and exfoliant from the same line. It will remove blush and bronzer but I don’t know how it works on any sort of eye makeup because I’ve never tried (I use Origins Clean Energy Gentle Cleansing Oil when I’m wearing eye make up — that stuff will get ANYTHING and EVERYTHING off your face). All in all, the enjoyable experience I get from using it will probably be the reason I buy it again, because it’s an otherwise decent cleanser that doesn’t do anything extra special for the price.

   I am a huge fan on this cleanser! I almost think this cleanser does a better job with fighting breakouts than their Outer Peace foaming cleanser. It is a great clarifying cleanser and it really helps heal breakouts and keeps my skin clear. It has a great smell and it has a really nice consistency. I will definitely repurchase. The only thing I don’t love is the glass packaging but I know Aveda is switching a lot of their glass bottles to plastic so I’ll be on the lookout for that.

   pros:
   – really great cleanser
   – strong glass packaging
   – smells good (to me it smells like mustard.. but not in a gross weird way)
   cons:
   -pricey
   – hard to find

   i didnt buy this product, my mom did from a local spa. We keep the cleanser in our shower and i love it! it really gets off all my makeup! the downsides are that its really pricey and more rare than other brands.
   i think that if you are to splurge on a product, you should splurge on cleansers, toners, and moisurizers. It’s for your health, so it’s worth it.

    this is my HG cleanser! i have combination to oily skin, this cleanser makes my skin feels very clean but not overdry it. i love how the texture feels on my skin, it’s very smooth and i love the smell. the only thing i don’t like is the price, and from where i live, it’s impossible to find it in stores here, i have to buy online with extra shipping cost! sucks big time. my 50ml almost run out so now i’m desperate to find where to buy this cleanser!! :__{
