Dr. HauschkaSoothing Cleansing MilkNatrue

I started using Dr. Hauschka skin care for my ridiculously sensitive face almost 20 years ago. Before that I'd had continuous issues with adult acne, dryness and irritation caused by other product use. Now I have none of those problems. At first I used the daily cleanser which has some exfoiliant in it, the toner, and the cleansing milk for make-up removal. I found the daily cleanser was too harsh and the toner too drying but the cleansing milk has stuck. It's the only cleanser I use, ever, out of fear of bad reactions to preservatives, detergents or fragrances in other products and by bad reactions I mean itchiness, rash and lesions. Y'all, if you have any of those issues, read on, imma bout to lay some tips on ya... I use this in the morning and before bed every day and anytime I need to remove make-up. For make-up removal I first use a cotton ball dampened with hot water to get the lion-share of eye make-up off (I don't use waterproof mascara), wet face, rub the cleansing milk into face and eyelids then use a washcloth dampened with hot water to remove product. It really gets it all the make-up off this way. For wetting and rinsing my face I use straight-up cold water which won't strip the product completely off and really helps prevent my face from feeling tight and dry. I only moisturize after my morning wash to let my skin replenish it's natural oils overnight. If I feel the need to exfoliate I first apply this product to my face, shake a little plain white sugar onto my hand, gently rub it around the crusty patches then rinse. Baby smooth, no need for another harsh scrub or microbeads of plastic going down the drain. In the winter it's a perfect daily mask for my dry skin. I wet my face, apply cleansing milk, let it soak in for a couple minutes while I brush my teeth then rinse with cold water. I buy 3 bottles of this a year and altogether it's bargain compared to other high-end products. For occasional clarifying of pores I apply a mask using plain bentonite clay but I don't end up with tons if build-up usually. I might do this 3 or 4 times a year.

I've used this for years. It's the best cream face wash. Makes skin super soft. I trust this brand.

This product is gentle but effective. The only cleanser I use.

As a gift, I immediately discovered that this was different from other face products I'd used most of my life. First, I like this cleaning milk very much; it does clean and leaves my face feeling deeply well treated most all day or night. Second, this product feels and smells awfully good, much better than most other such offerings. Finally, its many good qualities combine into a great shaving aid: this is the opposite of foamy and thick, and instead, your skin and the blade meet happily and speedily. I highly recommend this product as the basic or starting place for teen and adult guys.

I have been using this product for many many (over 20) years and nothing treats my skin better. I love how it cleans my face gently and still get's all my make up off even after washing my face. I like to use this as a final wash for my face because it is so moisturizing. Great for living in a dry climate. I have tried other products from Dr Hauschka products I have to say that they were not for me. But this product although pricey is really a great face wash for those with sensitive skin or just want a clean smooth was that will not leave your face dry. I also find that when I use this product I also use less moisturizer so win win.

This has been my cleanser for YEARS! I've tried plenty of others and just come back to this. Perfect.

For am and pm use, this cleanser is gentle yet effective. The scent reminds me of Chanel perfume. If you are sensitive to strong scents, this may not be the cleanser for you.

I have been using this product off and on for many years. Probably 15 years. And every time I re-order it and use it again I forget how much I love it. Specifically for winter skin. It is so silky so calming so soothing, smells amazing. It is absolutely lovely. Worth every penny. And I’m an Aesthetician. :)
