It does sting my eyes a little, and it can be harder to find in France. It’s a bit pricey for something very basic. 

It doesn’t strip my skin, there’s no fragrance, and it lasts longer than my last soap-free cleansing bars (Avène, A-Derma). The bar format may be more eco-friendly. I use it for my hands and face, and it has improved the state of my hands which suffer when frequently washed.

Soothing, rich enough for a mask, no fragrance, used in a thin layer it works as a winter moisturiser. A decent quantity per tube gives many applications. Feels amazing and leaves my skin very happy.

Didn’t notice particular improvement in skin, just stayed the same (making it a solid product but not HG). Dispenser can get gummed up in a humid environment (e.g. bathroom).

Doesnt irritate my skin. Slight exfoliating property. Powder format is handy for flights. I have used it as a body wash in a pinch and it worked nicely.

SPF was found to be 19 instead of 50 in independent lab tests, so I wasn’t getting the protection I expected.

This would have been my holy grail sunscreen. Moisturising but not greasy, so gentle on the skin, NO FRAGRANCE. Absolutely loved the feel of it and (very rare for me) finished my tube.

Too heavy for me in summer. I think it broke me out. I’d prefer SPF 20-30 in a day cream. 

Fragrance-free and with some SPF. Absorbs nicely to leave skin very soft. Cheap and widely available.
