Review: Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser

All of Glossier's products have rotated in and out of my makeup and skincare drawers for the last year, and they finally announced their newest release, the Milky Jelly Cleanser. Fan girls of Glossier rejoiced whilst putting this cutesy bottle of a cleanser in their shopping carts with its debut, and the crowd's have gone wild for it.  Their packaging makes me wish I started my own skincare line sooner, because I totally would have opted for this clean, simplistic, 21st century girl look; all the boxes are ticked off in terms of their presentation, packaging, and advertisements for their products; by giving back 100% to their customers, they listen to them and produce products that they know won't disappoint their groupies, which keeps us coming back for more! 

This is a good gel-cream cleanser, though the Moisturizing Moon Mask is my favorite product from their entire range, this comes in second place...As a morning cleanse, it softens the skin and gently clears it of impurities, though my favorite time to use this is for makeup removal: I use about one full pump and a half for the entire face, including eye area. Its SUPER gentle on the eye area by the way, and it's really good at removing mascara, eyeliner, the works in one full sweep.

The scent can be best described as a faint, powdery-rose, considering that Rose Damascena Flower Water is the second ingredient, you have been warned Rose-haters!  The Rose-fragrance was a bit much for a friend of mine, but I found it not bothersome. If you have skin sensitivities to fragrance: proceed with caution would be my best advice; know what works for your skin folks! 

Normal, combo, and slightly-dry skins will love this, and I think will suit best; its a non-stripping, softening, and nicely hydrating cleanse.

Note to the minimalist skincare lovers: If you are using this for makeup removal, you'll need to double cleanse again because it doesn't remove 100% of everything in one go, more so if you're having a heavy-makeup day; I would say a good 80% of makeup is removed during the first cleansing round.

I've been happily surprised with each product Glossier produces, and I can't wait to see what they'll come out with next. You can snatch up the Milky Jelly Cleanser for $18 on their website here & you can save 20% off your first purchase of Glossier through my affiliate link here
