- LUSH ™ Coalface
- Shiseido ™ ELIXIR
- Clinique ™ Liquid Soap
- DHC ™ Mild Soap
- Kiehl's ™ Algae Masque
- DHC ™ Deep Cleansing Oil
- Estee Lauder ™ Take It Away Total Remover
I threw away the carton box of ELIXER (even if I didn't, I wouldn't be able to read the ingredients in Japanese) It foams very well and it's a Japanese product, so I wouldn't be surprised to know if there's SLS in there. But the smell is good (very light) and it leaves a smooth skin. The ELIXIR and Coalface both clean my face thoroughly. So I'll finish them before the new organics and SLS-free stuff and I don't have too much left.
But I don't mind getting rid of Clinique stuff now though. It's just not good and I won't miss it! Also, I tried the DHC soap before. Lots of foams (now I know where it came from!) and nice olive smell. But I won't buy it and won't recommend it to others either.= =
I like the Algae mask from Kiehl's. It's unscented (at least I can't smell anything) and it can be absorbed very fast. Non-greasy at all! I looked the ingredients, oh yay, no SLS!! So I can keep it. But lots of Kiehl's products contain SLS. :(
As to makeup removers, I really gotta say Estee Lauder is a big, if not huge, disappointment!! It's just too mild to take away anything (maybe just the foundation) and the smell is so "Estee Lauder", so artificial! I bought it at a duty-free shop in the airport so cannot complain too much about it.
The DHC cleaning oil is just the opposite!! IT'S GREAT!! The commercial claims that it has been a No.1 selling product in Asia (or Japan, sorry I don't remember). It's very oily (yeah, it has olive oil! lots of olive oil!) and very effective to take away heavy makeups, even some long-lasting waterproof mascara/eyeliners. I'd recommended it to everyone. :D
GOOD Facial cleansers that I plan to buy before Christmas:
They are all SLS-free!!! Big yay!!!
- LUSH ™ Angels on Bare Skin
- LUSH ™ Baby Face Cleanser
- or LUSH ™ Sweet Japanese Girl Cleanser
- The Body Shop ™ Honey & Oat 3-in-1 Scrub Mask
P.S.: I'm 20 something and I have normal to dry skin. All products I listed here are for normal/dry skin type. ^_^
