Chikyu Honey And Oats Facial Cleanser

Are you the type who loves to feel your face squeaky clean after washing?

The Honey And Oats Facial Cleanser by Chikyu Skin Care comes pretty close to delivering this effect without any harsh cleanser ingredients, very impressive.

I have combination skin with some redness and dry areas on my cheeks so in looking for a face cleanser, I always seek ones that incorporate soothing ingredients such as oat and aloe. I also like oats for their natural saponins which add lather in cleansers without having to use drying sulfates. 

When trying the facial cleanser from Chikyu, I found it to remove my light coverage make-up from the day, leaving a nice clean feeling on my skin without any residue feel. The best part is it did not dry my skin at all. This perfect balancing act from a facial cleanser has been challenging to find- clean, no residue, not drying. These are the simple reasons why I completely adore this product, it's already become one of my favorite products I have tried so far this year.

In addition to the beautiful end result of cleansing without drying, the scent of the cleanser will really thrill your olfactory senses. With such a lovely, bright, sweet lavender scent, it brings me right back to my favorite lavender farm in Long Island (Lavender By The Bay). If you're not a lavender fan, I think you might fall in love with this product anyway.

The cleansing liquid has a very light and luxurious consistency. I found a generous pea sized amount is enough to wash my face. I love how it cleanses without any foaming action. Yes, I used to subscribe to the myth that a cleanser has to foam in order to clean well.

It rinses off easily and without residue. The bottle comes with a pump dispensing top for easy use.

...What I typically have on my face during the day (what this product washes off), a drop of rosehip fruit oil, 2-3 pea sized amounts Badger oil based sunblock, light dusting of Sun defense mineral powder with SPF 30, powder or creme eyeshadow (no mascara or eyeliner), cream blush

**I did want to mention for those who prioritize shelf life, the shelf life of this product is 3-6 months. This is a chemical free product and comes with a sticker telling you when to use the product by. Personally, I prefer to use a chemical free product even if that means an early use by date. 

Thank you Lynn, for creating this gentle, effective cleanser without using any harsh sulfates, chemical preservatives, petrochemicals, GMOs or pthalates.
