Olay Purifying Mud Lathering Cleanser
I saw an ad for this at just the right time. I couldn’t find the St. Ives blue clay mask I used as a teen, and my skin was freaking out from quitting smoking. Messing with my cleansing routine isn’t something I do lightly. And I’m generally not impressed when I do. This impressed me.
The site says:
” Give skin’s surface the deep clean of a mask in an everyday form.
- Detoxifying mud cleanser complex deep cleans to remove impurities
- Lathers and rinses like a daily cleanser for thoroughly purified, clean skin”
I’ve been using this exclusively for only about two weeks; before that, I used this in the evenings after my workouts, and used the L’Oreal Pore Minimizing gel cleanser in the shower.
My skin didn’t suddenly clear up, or change in any fundamental way. But what I’ve noticed is that my skin feels cleaning after I use this – much cleaner than it did with the L’Oreal. My skin is fairly oily in the mornings, and this cleanser made it feel positively squeaky. It doesn’t seem to leave behind any residue at all.
At the same time, it doesn’t dry my skin out. The Dove sometimes did, even though it’s full of moisturizing cream. But using this, I don’t have that feeling of tightness you can get with other cleansers or soaps. It just felt clean.
Bottom Line: I will definitely buy this again, and suggest it to anyone who has oily skin.
