I love that this face wash is organic and natural. It can be extremely drying so make sure you have a good moisturizer on hand. It removes makeup with ease, even mascara, and is safe to use around the eyes. It has never caused my eyes to burn. A bottle usually lasts me anywhere from 3- 6 months. I tend to avoid it in the winter months when my skin is extremely dry, however in the summer it really helps control the oils.

I was lucky enough to try Canadian skin care brand Consonant’s Award-winning Organic Foaming Face Wash/All Natural Foaming Face Wash. I was excited to give it a try because I had heard so many positive things about it plus I love to show love for local brands.

When I got home, I prepared to wash my makeup off. When I first pumped some into my palm I thought there was no way something that airy and light was going to effectively remove my makeup but I went for it…

WOW! I can see what all of the fuss is about. This cleanser helps me achieve that fine balance between feeling nice and clean but not feeling parched. It’s labeled as Pure Unscented but still has a nice light smell that leaves no discernible scent behind once rinsed off.
