Nourishing Cream Cleanser & Toner Reviews

I used to be enamoured with natural skincare, but much less so these days. However, this is one of the few natural products that I still wholeheartedly love and use.

MY SKIN TYPE: Sensitive, acne-prone

PRODUCT PACKAGING: 150 mL pump bottle. Pump works well, in spite of the nozzle being thinner than I like. The amount has also been reduced along with a price increase, in what is supposed to be a move to feel like a higher-end brand, which is both silly and misguided.

NOTABLE INGREDIENTS: Shea butter; sesame, macadamia and avocado oils; witch hazel; Vitamin B5; rose water.

CONSISTENCY: The texture is thick and creamy and feels absolutely luxurious. It doesn't lather up, yay!, but there's definitely some emulsification on contact with wet skin/water.

SCENT: Heavenly! These days I prefer my skincare to be fragrance-free, but cleansers get a pass. This cleanser awakens my senses with its rose and sandalwood scents, combining botanical and woody scents that's lovely but not overpowering. Stimulating enough for the day, but relaxing for the night. Beautiful.

PERFORMANCE: It removes most products with ease, except for really high performance makeup or really sticky sunscreens. My skin always feels clean and soft, but never dry or squeaky clean, ready for the subsequent steps in my routine.

I adore this gentle cleanser, but I can see how people who use long-lasting makeup may not. It's too gentle for actually removing makeup designed to stay on, and a bit too creamy as a second step cleanser. Otherwise, it's gentle, non-irritating and effective, with a bottle that lasts months!

I HAVE JUST STARTED USING THIS PRODUCT AND I LOVE IT ALREADY. IT S NOT EXPENSIVE AND DOES A BETTER JOB THAN SOME CLEANSERS THAT ARE MORE EXPENSIVE. IT LEAVES MY SKIN CLEAN , SOFT, AND SUPPLE. I ALSO LOVE IT BECAUSE ITS ALL NATURAL.I M A REAL BELIEVER IN NATURAL PRODUCTS, AND THIS SURELY IS ONE OF THEM. IVE TRIED MANY CLEANSERS BECAUSE MY SKIN IS NOT THE GREATEST AND AKIN HAD MADE THE MOST DIFFERENCE IN THE SHORTEST TIME.

This is one product that I have relied upon for many years, an old and reliable cleanser. To me it feels like pure luxury when I smooth it over my face and neck. No worries using around the eyes either, to remove eye makeup. I have used this product since it first come onto the market . It is not a product that you see with "New & Improved " signs on it .They got it right to begin with. A'kin is a brand you can trust. I have very sensitive skin and have never had any problems with this product.

I've been using this combined cleanser/toner for over a year now, I love it! As a busy mum of 3 little ones, having a product that does double-duty is a massive help for me with my skincare routine. This cleanser/toner is thick and creamy, and is perfect for my combination skin, leaving it soft and nourished. I love the scent of it! A little goes a long way, so the big tube lasts for ages.

This is my holy grain cleanser. Over the years I have used a lot of different cleansers, and this is my new one and only. I don't have dry skin - I have combination skin. And at 23 I have started to age prematurely.

This cleanser has saved my skin. The ingredients are few and natural, it doesn't leave my skin dry and tight after cleansing, and after a week my skin has become smooth and crystal clear. My grandmother commented recently that my face is as smooth as a peach. :)

I love that this cleanser does not cause any bad reaction with my skin. It's mildly scented and the creamy texture is great for massaging into the skin to gently lift away the impurities. The tube packaging is perfect got traveling, no messy spills and very hygienic for dispensing the tight amount of product. Not sure about the effectiveness of the toner in this as I always use a separate toner with AHA.

i got a sample from them and since i'm a lazy girl, i always use my cleansers to remove makeup and this product doesn't work at all. It way too mild and doesn't remove makeup/oil at all and i didn't like the fragrance.

This product has a nice mild fragrance and is quite creamy. It seemed to clean adequately but I didn't really feel like my skin had been toned. I used the Rosehip Oil & the moisturiser afterwards, and my skin did feel lovely & soft. However I don't think I will be using this range again.

I've really been enjoying creamy cleansers lately - this one in particular. It's softening, soothing and protective without compromising on it's role as a cleanser. I find this cream cleanser does a better job than my previous cream cleanser, likely due to the inclusion of witch hazel. The downside of that is that this cleanser doesn't smell quite as nice (witch hazel is an odd scent and one that I don't particularly like), but at least the fragrance is mild and doesn't linger so it's not too big of a worry for me.
