Milk Melt Vegan Oat Cleanser

This is a very mild, gentle cleanser. It leaves me feeling cleansed but not stripped, which is perfect. Works for my dry winter skin. Like the name suggests, the consistency is milky. It doesn't foam. It has a slight funny scent to it that I don't really know how to describe. It doesn't bother me personally, and I much prefer it to something that smells like perfume. I love that it's cruelty free and vegan.

This cleanser is relatively pricey for what it is, at approximately 25 euros for 150 ml. There are equally good basic cleansing milks out there for less than 10 euros. I wish the tube had a flip cap instead of a screw cap. When I pour this into my hand, I don't have both of my hands free to screw the cap back on, so I have to balance the tube upside down against something while I wash my face. As for the marketing of this whole brand as "natural" and "clean", I don't appreciate it. It's misleading and contributes to fearmongering against perfectly safe and effective ingredients and brands. Everything is a chemical, including the ingredients that Bybi uses. And "natural" is not better than synthetic. The probiotic claims are also just marketing fluff. It's not going to give any probiotic benefits to your skin's microbiome. The science just isn't there yet.
