My Experience with The Body Shop Pomegranate Softening Cream Cleanser:

This pump dispenser packaging looks classy in maroon. It also has a lock-system, much to my liking. The bottle is sturdy and has all the details regarding the products. This is very travel friendly. It’s just a basic bottle that looks good and is functional. But, you cannot make out how much product is left by just looking at the bottle. You need to open it to see it. It has a sweet pomegranate-like fragrance, which I like. It is a nice fragrance which does not linger.

The creamy cleanser spreads easily and removes all the makeup from my face and lips. But, if I have just waxed or threaded an area, it stings/burns, which I do not appreciate. This could be due to potent ingredients in the cleanser, but I do not appreciate this property. I want my skin to feel soothed and relaxed after I remove my makeup, and not irritated. My skin is normal and does not easily react to anything, but the area around my nose tends to get red when I use this cleanser. So, if you have sensitive skin, don’t forget without testing it. I think should work well on all the other skin types.

As claimed, it does make and keep my skin soft and supple. It has never broken me out, which also means that makeup gets removed well. It has not affected the size of my pores either, which I am really concerned about these days. This range is specially meant for ageing skin; I think such a skin would need soothing products, not redness and irritation. My skin does feel refreshed and bright too after using this, which I really like.

When it comes to removing impurities and makeup, it does remove them quite efficiently. It is not able to remove waterproof eye makeup though. Like, my mascara and eyeliner are always waterproof and it does not remove them. Another thing which shocked me is that it irritates and stings the eyes so badly, even more than shampoos. I am really disappointed with this property too as I have to use another makeup remover to remove my eye makeup.
