Makeup(Skincare) Monday: Simple Foaming Cleanser

Hello my loves! Today I'm going to be reviewing the Simple foaming cleanser. 



 I made a quick Wal-Mart run the other day and found myself self in the makeup aisle(no wonder). I had just run out of my Neutrogena cleanser and was in the market for a new one. I had heard quite a few good things about the Simple brand so I took a look at their products.  I have very sensitive skin, so the philosophy behind this specific product seemed like a good one to me. The packaging says it has one vitamin, 3 skin loving ingredients and NO artificial perfume or dyes. The cleanser is just as the package says SIMPLE. I have recently been having a lot more oil on my skin and been breaking out a fair amount because of the stage makeup I have been wearing recently for a production I was doing at school, so a simple product sounded like just what I needed.

 I have been using this product for probably 2 weeks and I LOVE it! I had recently also tried out the Olay Va Va Vivid, and it didn't work for me, I ended up breaking out really bad and having to stop using the product. The Simple cleanser completely cleared up those breakouts, and my face felt really soft! I use this a makeup remover and it's great!  One downside I have found is that if you get it in your eyes it does sting a bit. 

Overall I really recommend this product! I give it a 9/10! Its really cheap and available at  Wal-Mart, and probably at Target (sorry I don't know for sure) If you are on the look out for a new makeup remover and cleanser and have sensitive skin I would definitely recommend giving this a try!

I hope you all are having a Great Day!!!

hugs!
