보태니컬 키네틱스™ 퓨리파잉 젤 클렌저

- It feels slippery, so I have to wash my face multiple times
- The price is expensive..
- The fragrance is polarizing, and I'm not a fan of it ㅜㅜ

- The packaging is pretty
- I'm not sure if the cleansing is effective, but I don't get any breakouts

At first I thought it was mild, but it seems to lack a cleansing sensation....

It seems very mild and I don't have any aversion to using it.

Is there something wrong with my skin? ㅠㅜ After using it, my skin becomes completely dry. I also don't really like the tight and slippery feeling on my skin after using it ㅠㅜ That's why I'm using it as a hand wash now - the cleansing power is good, but my skin feels tighter and drier than when I use regular soap ㅠㅜ My hands are already quite dry, so... ㅠㅜ I do like Aveda, but this product just doesn't seem to work for me.

The fragrance is nice. It seems to have the signature Aveda scent that I like.

The fragrance is polarizing.
The cleansing power is somewhat lacking.
The price is high relative to the performance.

The slightly sticky texture is not ideal, but this product has a smooth and polished finish that I really like.
After cleansing, my face doesn't feel tight, which I appreciate. The scent is the Aveda fragrance, which I personally enjoy, but it may be divisive.

It tends to be used a bit generously compared to oil-based formulas, and the fragrance is a matter of personal preference.

I am satisfied that my skin is not dry after cleansing.
The cleansing gel has sufficient cleansing power and is good.

Personally, I prefer cleansers that produce a rich, creamy lather, and even though I have dry skin, I like that slightly squeaky-clean feeling after cleansing. This product doesn't lather at all, and while the moisturizing aspect is a plus, I think I'll save it for use during the transitional seasons or winter when my skin is extra dry.

It's gentle. It's not a sticky, gooey formula like some gel cleansers, but applies smoothly and leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized after cleansing. There's no dryness or tightness. The scent is similar to the ginseng aroma found in some traditional herbal cosmetics, but it's not overpowering and I find it pleasant. I'd recommend this as a morning cleanser or as a second cleanse to remove makeup, especially the kind that's transfer-proof.

The only downside is that it's a bit pricey..ㅠㅠ But it's a bit better if you buy it at the duty-free shop.

The lather may not seem very abundant, but regardless of the lather, the cleansing power is sufficient, and after cleansing, there is no tightening feeling - it feels very moisturizing and great.
The natural, relaxing fragrance that is characteristic of Aveda is also very pleasant.
I'm usually cautious when massaging with a foam cleanser since I have dry skin, but this product is not like that.

Since I already bought it, I've been using it to wipe down areas with body acne while showering. It's not overly harsh, so I can use it without any issues.

- I bought this as a primary cleansing product, but it doesn't seem to have the cleansing power I was hoping for. 
- More importantly, the price is on the higher end compared to other products, but I don't see any standout benefits or effects. Skin type can vary, so I'd recommend checking it out carefully before purchasing.

I've switched products based on how moisturized my skin feels after cleansing, rather than just the squeaky-clean sensation.
- Compared to other products, this one does leave my skin feeling less dry and more hydrated after cleansing.
- This was my first time using a gel-type cleanser, and while the Aveda one doesn't really have a gel-like texture, more of a thin, watery consistency, I found that it blends well with my makeup during cleansing.
- I occasionally get clogged pores, but I didn't experience any breakouts or skin issues after using this.

The price is expensive, and there are many allergy-inducing ingredients in it.

Nowadays, there are many affordable and gentle cleansers on the market.
However, many of them contain harmful ingredients and are expensive, yet people continue to use them.
After using them, there is a moisturized feeling.
They also perform the role of cleansing well.

It sometimes mildly irritates my eyes when it gets in them.. The pump is prone to mold growth, so I'm only using a small amount at a time.

This is essential. I'm using it as the final step in my double cleansing routine. It's oil-free, so it's not burdensome, and the moisturizing finish is great!

I had to stop using it because my skin became itchy
Skin irritation

My skin feels radiant and clearer
It feels moisturized
