Chanel Gel Purete Foaming Gel Cleanser
I purchased this cleanser from Selfridges, as kind of an 'impulse buy', around 3-4 months ago. It is not the cheapest of cleansers and cost £30.00 for 150ml. Packaging wise, it is very 'Chanel' in that it is simple, chic and minimalistic. The cleanser comes with a pump, which also makes it very practical.
This cleanser is perhaps suited more towards those with oily/combination skin as it helps eliminate excess sebum and leaves your skin visibly mattified.
This cleanser is a gel but once worked into your skin with water, turns into a foam. I do think this cleanser does an amazing job at removing all the makeup and grime from my skin, but it does leave my skin feeling tight and sometimes a little dry in areas. I find this cleanser to be a little drying on my combination skin so wouldn't recommend for anybody with slightly drier skin.
In terms of breakouts, this cleanser did a good job at keeping any blemishes at bay, and did 'calm' my skin down alot. I know alot of people love the scent of this cleanser, but I really dislike it. It doesn't smell unpleasant at all, but has a string smell of 'soap', and do not get in your eyes as it will sting like mad!!!
Overall, not a bad cleanser, just not a great cleanser either! Definitely not a cleanser I could use every day as I think it would be slightly drying on my skin, but great for those days my skin is feeling really oily and acting up. Not one I would purchase again as unfortunately it wasn't for me.
XOXO
