This does smell a bit strange but it is a really nice cleanser. The consistency is quite thin but it does lather up well and takes off any left over makeup. It doesn't irritate my skin and leaves it feeling soft and smooth. I've only used it a couple of times but I can tell that it has already calmed my redness down and even my blemishes! It gives my face the glow it needs!

I am in my late 20's/early 30's with acne/problem, fair tone skin and blue eyes. My hair is blonde, dry with fine texture.
I received this product in the 2019 Debenhams advent calendar. Packaging is pretty basic and price point wise is it’s affordable especially for Elemis. The scent is quite herb like. Consistency is very thin and watery but it’s to be expected of a facial wash. My skin type is dry, dehydrated and sensitive and this product put much needed hydration back into my skin and in regards to my sensitive skin it didn’t irritate it at all or cause any adverse reactions. After use my skin felt so soft and smooth. It also felt really nourished, moisturised and revitalised. This product is packed with nutrient-dense supergreens and an active prebiotic which left my skin looking much more radiant and glowy. I liked it when I applied it to my skin and it really did foam up well and cleansed my face well. I would definitely recommend this product and I would repurchase it!

I am in my late 30's/early 40's with sensitive, olive tone skin and hazel eyes. My hair is light brown, dry with normal texture.
This is an excellent high end product. It is a little more expensive than other skin care products, but you only need to use a small amount. This gel cleanser, has several unusual ingredients: Wheatgrass extract, Broccoli Seed oil, Kale extract, Nettle extract, Avocado oil, Organic Pumpkin Seed oil.
This cleanser has a fresh clean scent with a blend of Sweet Orange, Palmarosa, Amyris, Lavender, Rosemary, Lemon, Ylang Ylang, Patchouli, Vetivert, Eucalyptus, Carrot, Cedarwood, and Galbanium
I have used this morning and evening, I mix a small amount into my palms and then add warm water. I gently massage over my face, and then I used my Clarisonic to massage my face and remove all the dirt and particles. I rinse my face, and it feels soft and clean, not tight like other cleansers. I then follow with my Moisturizer.
My skin is clean, and I like the softness that I feel. Elemis is a first rate product, and I will use it daily.

A gel style facial wash in a large tube that froths up in2 a nice gentle lather. Very kind to skin but leaves the T zone totally cleansed while all other areas are gently cleansed. Nice fragrance. Good for sensitive skin.

✨A lot of people are not keen of the scent of this, but for me I find it doesn’t bother me than much. Don’t get me wrong - it’s not great, but it is bearable. According to the label, this has a combination of Broccoli, Avocado, Wheatgrass and Kale to balance the skins natural good bacteria and help maintain radiance and luminosity. It does feel like a treat when using and my skin feels super soft, but it also feels healthy too. It works well with oily skin and it doesn’t break me out, but at the same time it doesn’t dry it out either. I would definitely buy it again, but it wouldn’t be my first choice as I need a product which keeps my acne at bay.

I really thought that I'd love this facial wash as it has so many things I look for in skincare. Firstly, it's Elemis - and I've loved every product of theirs that I've tried and secondly, the ingredients in this face wash are really lovely and impressive.
But I just can't get past the smell! It reminds me of my dad going for a night out in the 1980s - it smells of cigarettes and Badedas bubble bath!! It's really quite a strange and off-putting scent.
It does leave my skin feeling very soft and is non-drying, but so do many other facial washes - and they don't smell like cigarette smoke!!
