Afrodita Clean Phase Cleansing Gel

As you might have seen in my Skincare haul, I changed up quite a few bits in my skincare routine, and this cleansing gel was one of the new additions. I have been searching for a good budget-friendly cleanser for the longest time, and this is the closest thing I found.

The gel promises to remove all the makeup and access oil and dirt from the skin, whilst the hyaluronic acid is supposed to moisturize it. The bisabolol in the gel is anti-irritant, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial is supposed to help with the skin healing.  The product is paraben, paraffin and silicone free.

The cleanser comes out of the tube very runny, like a slightly liquefied gel, so you have to be careful not to use too much. I apply it to a moist face and gently rub it in. First I focus on the face and then move to the eyes that usually have the most makeup on. It takes a few seconds, but a gentle massage removes even waterproof mascara. When I see that the makeup has dissolved, I add some warm water, and then remove it with a gentle flannel.

The product feels nice and smooth on the skin, but I have to keep my eyes shut, otherwise it does irritate them slightly. After I pat the face dry with the flannel, all the makeup and access oils have been removed. My skin feels clean but very tight and a bit dried out. For my oily skin, the drying part isn't that problematic, because it all works out perfect after I moisturize the face with a rich face cream, but this would probably be way too drying for someone that already has really dry skin.

The product is really good at cleansing the surface of the skin, but for a deeper cleanse I like to use other products in my skincare routine.

Every now and then I still only use a micellar water to remove all of my makeup, but for the most days, this cleanser is what I use to remove the makeup. If I had on a really heavy makeup, I will use micellar water after I clean my face with this product.

I enjoy using this product and it has helped me clear my skin quite a lot. It will probably be a regular part of my skincare routine, until my wallet will be capable of purchasing a selected high-end cleanser.

Thank you for reading and see you in my next post!
