Over the past year, I’ve become an avid fan of hot cloth cleansers. I don’t think I can ever go back to removing makeup AND cleaning my face with one wash off gel cleanser. I just couldn’t! These are the cleansers I have in my stash currently, so I wanted to pull together my thoughts on them all for you.
I did a comparison
post previously here of this and the Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish. I really like the No7 Hot Cloth Cleanser as
it’s very similar to the LE cleanser
and better value. If you’re unsure about
hot cloth cleansers and want to try one out, try this (especially when Boots
has the £5 off vouchers!). It’s less
creamy than the LE, but removes all the makeup and doesn’t strip your
skin. It smells lovely too!
This was my first hot cloth cleanser and it truly wowed
me. I have a full
review here. I had heard a lot about
LE Cleanse & Polish and decided to give it a go. I’m glad I did! It has a really creamy almost balmy texture
and melted every scrap of makeup from my face.
It set a benchmark for other hot cloth cleansers for me. It’s suitable for all skin types in my
opinion. The only thing about this
cleanser is the price point, £14.75 for 100ml pump with a muslin cloth that I don’t
even use (I use Primark face cloths)!
This is the newest addition to my stash from a great UK brand,
Bee Good, with honey and propolis as its active ingredients (full
review here). They don’t test on animals and the cleanser doesn’t contain
any synthetic colours, mineral oil, silicone, SLS and SLES or parabens. It also comes with a muslin cloth. The formula again is really creamy and really
breaks down my makeup. I really like the
refreshing fragrance and it almost instantly serves as sign of it being the end
of the day for me. It’s suitable for
everyone but if you specifically want to know what’s in your skincare and want
animal-cruelty free products – this is for you!
This was a great find for me. I’m always sceptical of skincare from the
shop’s own brand as I feel like they won’t do much. But this definitely changed my mind. You’ll see in my full
review here that I found it to be quite similar to the Liz Earle C&P;
it’s not a dupe, but definitely a good budget alternative. My only issue with this was the strong scent;
it wasn’t bad, but just a bit much. If
you’re okay with that, then this is an excellent budget hot cloth cleanser!
All the cleansers I mentioned, I enjoyed using. I’d probably repurchase them again at some
point (once I’m done with the four I’m rotating now *face palm*!). This was more for hot cloth cleanser novices,
who wants options for which products to try.
There’s a good range of budget and high-end for you to pick from!
