Baking Soda Pore Cleanser Reviews

This Biore Baking Soda Pore Cleanser is a wonderful cleanser. It doesn't feel harsh on my skin at all when washing my face. I usually use this i the morning in the shower. I previously used the Biore Charcoal Cleanser but found that it dried out my skin too much and so I lost my confidence in the Biore branding. So switching to this baking soda one I'm pretty happy as my skin feels clean and not stripped. It does make my skin also feel so smooth, so the gentle exfoliation, as promised on the bottle, works.

Very happy to use this as an every day cleanser.

The product's claims:

Let's face it
Impurities aren't pretty! With it's ability to deep clean and naturally exfoliate, baking soda is the answer to those dirty little secrets.
What it does
Biore Baking Soda Pore Cleanser deep cleans to remove dirt and impurities from the pore while gently exfoliating away dead cells to reveal smooth, healthy looking skin.

About the product:

The Biore Baking Soda Pore Cleanser comes in a clear plastic 200ml bottle with a light blue pump dispenser.
The consistency of the cleanser is that of a thick gel, it is easy to dispense from the pump with no issues of clogging.
The colour of the gel is cloudy-clear; the scent is light and inoffensive. It is not heavily perfumed and does not linger on the skin.
This is a foaming gel cleanser; it does contain SLS (Sodium Laureth Sulfate). It foams up well; not a lot of product is needed to get a good lather, especially if being used with a cleansing device. About the size of a 10c coin will be sufficient for a full cleanse.

My thoughts on the product;

I recieved this in a showbag, it is not something that I would normally seek out to purchase as it is recommended more so for combination skin types and I thought that this cleanser may be too drying for my skin.
I was pleasantly surprised by this cleanser, it actually worked quite well for my skin type.
It provided a thorough deep cleanse without leaving my skin feeling dry, tight or stripped. I was initially worried that this may be too harsh for my skin but I found it to be quite good.
I used this with my cleansing device and found it to foam up very well, only a small amount is needed per application.
I removed all of my makeup beforehand prior to using this cleanser so cannot specify how it will perform in terms of makeup removal. It works beautifully to remove any residual traces left behind from my makeup remover.
After using the cleanser my skin was left feeling deeply cleansed and smooth; not at all dry, tight, stripped.

The final verdict:

I did enjoy using this cleanser, although I am not the intended market for it I found it to work quite well.
I experienced no dryness, irritation or breakouts while using.
It provided a thorough deep cleanse and left my skin feeling quite smooth afterwards.
I would consider purchasing in the future and I do recommend.

This cleanser is a transparent gel with white tiny exfoliating dissolvable beads that is gentle on my dry/dehydrated skin. It lathers up quickly and leaves skin feeling soft, smooth and radiant. The exfoliating beads are gentle that it cleanses the pores well after first use. I often incorporate this in the evening and every other time in my morning skincare routine.

The formulation isn’t harsh on my skin type and when I experience dry skin, this has actually helped to soothe down any inflammation I may be experiencing at the time. A great budget friendly cleanser that lives up to its claims and I’m happy to continue using it until it’s empty. This was a good brand rediscovery and from recollection, Biore did help to sort out my teenage acne back in the day.

I love love love all of Biore's range and this one is one of my favourites along with the charcoal cleanser. It smells super pretty and work hard on the skin to clear all the gunk and yuck out of it. It has a minty kind of sensation so it feels like it getting deep down to the pores to clean it out which is great for my acne prone skin.

I had high hopes for this cleanser and I usually enjoy Biore products. I can't say I loved this one.

This advertises to be a gentle skin cleanser made with baking soda to purify the skin. I didn't find this product to be gentle on my face at all! I only used this on my face for about a week because the redness on my face was unbearable and I don't even have sensitive skin! My cheeks especially, were so red and dry after every use of this product that even my usual moisturiser couldnt calm my skin.

I did enjoy the light scent of this product as it smells clean and fresh and even the feel is satisfying. It contains very tiny microbeads to exfoliate. Although I can't recommend this as a facial cleanser, I have been using the remainder of my bottle as an exfoliating cleanser on my shoulders and upper back. For this purpose I do like the product, it is a nice gentle purifying cleanser on these areas of the body but was just too harsh for my face.

I picked a couple of bottles of this cleanser up during Priceline skincare sale, not knowing that it will become my HG cleanser. I knew baking soda is great for cleaning the pores but never got myself to take it out of my kitchen cabinet to use it. When I saw this cleanser, I thought of picking it up as the price was great and I do not have to think about making a DIY baking soda paste.

After the first wash, my face felt clean but I did not notice much difference other than the clean feeling. After a week, I noticed that my deep-rooted blackheads had started coming to the surface which really made me feel that this stuff was working. Within 2 weeks time, I felt my skin was less congested and was clearing up. I have been using it ever since, though I reduced its usage to once a day (night time only) instead of twice and use a different cleanser for the morning as I felt using it twice a day was drying out my skin.
