Not as good as I expected
After battling with deep cystic breakouts for a few years I decided I need to move from a mid range cleanser to something more expensive so tried this. While I ...
Perfect cleanse
Highly recommend. Have been using this product for over 10 years & it doesn't dry your skin out, my face loves it and it's not harsh on your skin.Best cleanser
19/10 great fresh feeling. Great for all types of skinMy go to cleanser
I have used this product for two weeks now and have noticed a decrease in breakouts and has helped calm the existing acne on my face. Would recommend to someone who has difficult to rid acne.WOW - The best
What a product! I have combination skin so oily and dry in some patches. Have most facial cleansers out there and this has to be the best in terms of having deep clean and medical grade. Takes of all makeup and reduces chance of pimples and spots.Lovely, but not for me.
This cleanser has a cooling effect on the skin, smells minty and leaves your face feeling clean. Unfortunately it is too irritating for my skin. I can get away with using it a couple of times a week, if I use cosmedix rescue balm afterwards. It is an expensive cleanser, so was disappointed when I dropped it on tiled bathroom floor and it smashed and left a pretty iridescent green puddle. So, wish ...Read MoreGreat exfoliating cleanser
Nice smelling exfoliating cleanser which cleans and removes makeup.Good!
I wish i didnt like this because its so expensive. But after trying a tester a bought a full bottle. Its amazing. It has such a fresh minty/tea tree scent, and even has a cooling effect on skin. You can use it as a wash or a mask and either way your skin feels new after you use it. 1 star taken off for price, and the bottle is flimsy. drop it once and say bye to $10 worth of productLove this!
Love this cleanser for my hormonal acne. Noticed a difference strait away! Love the smell too. Leaves my face feeling super clean and fresh! Definitely going to keep buyingSo good
helps it so much and exfoliates the skinIt's pricey but it's worth it
I was recommended this by my dermal clinician and although I thought it was a bit pricey for a cleanser, I love it. You only need 1-3 pumps so it does go a long way. It really helped to clear up my hormone acne on my chin. It's gentle but you also feel like you are cleaning deeply. You can also use it as a quick mask treatment (put it on to dry skin and rinse off after 5 mins). It smells love...Read Morelove this cleanser
so good for the small white things i get around my eyes, just helps it so much and exfoliates the skin. my face also looks brighter after each use.Awesome cleanser
Great cleanser! Smells amazing and feels so fresh on your skinGreat product
This is a great exfoliate cleanser, gentle but effective. It smells lovely too. I use it twice a week and it keeps my skin in check.Nothing special nothing bad
I received a sample of this cleanser, and whilst it was a nice one I loved the cooling effect on acne. It just wasn't amazing to me and for the price I would want it to be blowing my socks off! Hence the 3 stars. I have combination skin and it worked just as good as my skinstitute gentle exfoliator which Is a fraction of the price. Still not a bad cleanser I think it would be super gentle on ...Read MoreNothing special nothing bad

I found this cleanser to be gentle yet exfoliating. It has a fresh toothpaste fragrance and overall it leaves your face feeling very clean and fresh.Refreshing cleanser
Nice cleanser that gives a deep clean and is nice and refreshing. However for there are other good cleansers that are less expensive.deep cleaner
this gives my face a nice deep clean, wouldn't use it everyday as it is a little irritating but is goodThe best
Another awesome adore beauty gift with purchase
I would never have bought this and therefore would never have found such an awesome cleanser
This is really amazing stuff
I think I'm leaving my old faithful.
This is refreshing, smells great and super deep clean but not too harsh.
Great quality product.
Very impressive.Clear skin
LOVE this cleanser. I use this as my AM cleanse so as to not interact with my retinoid regime in the evening. I absolutely adore it, my skin has cleared up significantly. I specifically focus on areas where I have texture and it immediately helps make the skin feel smoother. The only negative about it is the pump is a bit crappy and takes a while to get product out.Great product
I have really loved this product leaves my face feeling energised and fresh! Also love this product as its a two in one cleanser and exfoliator which simplifies my skincare routine so much!Game changer
I purchased this product after reading that it was a recommendation from one of the top facialists in Australia. It exceeded my expectations as I was left with smooth, refined skin after only a few days. Now I really notice the difference if I switch to another cleanser temporarily. It’s worth the price because you get great results.great
this is a really great cleanser, it is quite strong so I don't use it everyday.worth the money
Great Product! I used this cleanser many years ago, I stopped using it because of the price but nothing compares! in the last year I have started using it again and my skin loves me for it!
The packaging is okay, the pump does get stuck and i've found that my last 3 purchases there has been a split in the white part of the pump but i still continue to purchase as it is 100% worth the money!...Read MoreI'm not mad
It's a decent size for the price, it's non drying on my skin which is dry with hormonal breakouts. Do shake before use and make sure all make up is properly taken off with a oil based cleanser or cloth or what ever you use. I tend to leave it on for 2-5 minutes in the shower each night as like a mini treatment.great
great cleanser that Cleanses and unclogs poresLove the smell, new packaging isn't as easy to pump
I really like how this product leaves my skin feeling, clean and fresh (gets rid of blackhead bumps).
The old packaging, while not as premium looking was more effective. I find the pump on this really annoying, you do need to pull the pump back up because of the thick texture of the product, which is difficult one handed in the shower. Because of this, I've smashed two bottles and have had ...Read MorePretty Good but Probably Won't Re-Purchase
This leaves my skin feeling really clean, and I liked the fact that it seemed to have a gentle exfoliating effect - in contrast to heavy exfoliants which can be irritating on my sensitive skin. My skin type is dry, and I think this cleanser was fine for that as well because it didn't leave me with that tight feeling afterwards. The reasons why I probably won't repurchase is because I've decided to...Read MoreOkay
I used this when my skin was super break out prone and it didn't make me breakout which is always good but also didn't work any miracles either. Not worth the hefty price tag in my opinion.Not like a normal exfoliating cleanser but highly effective
I used to think an 'exfoliant' had to be a scrub. This is not like that; it's a gentle exfoliant and my skins feels really clean after using it. I would also recommend a scrub to use once a week to get rid of dead skin.Nice deep clean!
This gives such a nice and refreshing deep clean, but it does not over dry my oily, acne prone skin. I like to use this as a peel also after a big day or week and it really helps with my congestion. I use this in congestion with the Cosmedix Clarify Salicylic Acid Foaming Cleanser. Must have!!Best cleanser
So effective yet not stripping on the skin! Really cleanses the skin and creates a smoothing effect on your skin, also noticed so much decongestion out of my pores after only 3 uses! WondefulGreat size and price
This seems a bit pricey for a cleanser but let me tell you its also a large bottle 150ml. It will last a long time and I absolutely love it. Its not harsh on the skin and my skin doesn't feel tight after using it. Clears dirt and leaves skin very soft .Great
Love the smell. Bought this for a second time. My skin is breaking out a bit more this time but I think it’s purging. Great smellIn love with this cleanser
This cleanser has worked well for my dry skin that has a occasional hormonal breakouts on the chin . It contains 5% lactic acid which helps to exfoliate and hydrate the skin without stripping your natural barrier. It has green colour which makes nighttime skincare routine so much more fun, oh and that peppermint smell it’s absolutely divine!Not as good as I expected
After battling with deep cystic breakouts for a few years I decided I need to move from a mid range cleanser to something more expensive so tried this. While I think it generally maintained my skin and kept it relatively clear, it wasn't life changing and I still occasionally got deep breakouts. I decided to try something with glycolic acid instead and have actually had far better results with Pix...Read MoreGood cleanser
This is a good cleanser for oily skin, not too harsh and it smells nice. I’m not sure if it provides enough exfoliation on its own. I tend to use something stronger once a week.My husband actually uses this!
I bought this for my husband who hates using skincare and he actually likes it! He enjoys the peppermint scent. It contains Lactic acid which is a gentle exfoliator, making it less harsh than other cleansers for oily skin. I also love that Cosmedix does not test on animals. Great brand overall.Worth the price
I love using this cleanser. I always feel so fresh afterward, it looks ceanand it lasts for ages. My last one was purchased in early November and it lasted until late May. Its worth it!Too Strong
I used this a few times and found it to be too strong. Possibly it could be used once a week without too much trouble however it really stressed out my sensitive skin so I did not persist with it. I liked how it smelled minty fresh.Amazing for combination skin/hormonal acne
I love this product! I gave bought a few times now for my combination/hormone acne skin and it is great. I use it at night and then also use it as a mask once per week! I have found that it can be drying when used morning and night in areas where my skin is less blemished so have moved to night time use only.Great product!
I love this product, I use it as both a day and night cleanser. I don't find it too harsh for my skin and felt I could see results quick quickly after using it.Great cleanser for oily skin, perfectly fine with twice daily use
I have been using this for 4 months and love it. My skin is oily and congested but sometimes throws in some random dry patches for fun.
After using this morning and night for 4 months, it definitely improves the texture of my skin and it has played very nicely with the serums I use. It has a nice, subtle smell, cleans without drying out and a little bit goes a very long way. Will def...Read Moreworth the price tag
I love being able to introduce an acid into my cleanser, and being lactic acid it doesn't dry the skin out or cause it to feel tight. gentle enough to use everyday. would definitely repurchase.Loving it so far!
I’ve only been using this for a few weeks, I switched from medik8 because I just didn’t think it was strong enough for me. Loving this cleanser so far, it can also be used as a mask. I put it on at the start of my shower and wash it off at the end. It leaves a nice fresh tingly feeling on my skin, and hasn’t irritated my sensitive skin. Best cleanser I’ve tried! I don’t believe a cleanser alone c...Read MoreBest I've found
Does such a good job and will stick with it!Super gentle for congested skin
I use this as a 2nd cleanse in the evening. It is super gentle on my dry & rosacea prone skin. I love that you can use it as a cleanser or as a mask. It leaves my skin feeling clean (not squeaky) and clarified.Good and not drying
If you're looking for a foaming cleanser, this is not the product for you. I found this product cleaned the skin quite well and wasn't drying. I tend to only use this at night, or twice a day whenever I get a few acne spots pop up.Cleanser and mask in one - amazing value
I have used this cleanser on and off for many years. I particularly like that I can use it both as a cleanser, and a mask on dry skin which is great. It's an amazing exfoliant cleanser particularly for problematic skin.Love this product but use as needed
I do love this product for controlling my break outs, however I have found that I only need to cleanse with it at night, as cleansing with it twice a day was too stripping for my skin.Great for congested skin
I use this morning and night with my foreo and love it. It's not harsh on skin, yet it's effective enough that you feel like your skin is properly cleaned.
Smell is peppermint-y which is nice and fresh.Great multi tasker
This cleanser helped dramatically reduce my redness and breakouts. It is gentle for my sensitive skin but it still feels so refreshing! A must for any skin type. I also love that you can use it as a mask!Best Cleanser
This is by far the best cleanser I have used for my adult acne prone skin. It feels soo nice on my face. It doesn't strip the skin but yet gives me a really deep cleanse. I have wasted soo much money on expensive cleansers, but this cleanser is a really good investment. I have been using this for over a year now and I will not use anything else!!! Tip: don't damp ur face too much while cleansing w...Read MoreLove!
I’ve gradually been adding new Cosmedix products to my skin care routine and love this cleanser. It gets all make up off. I love using the oil cleanser and follow with this for days that I’m wearing make up, love it. It also doubles as a face mask if you leave it on dry clean skin, which I really loved!Unbeatable cleanser for combination/oily skin!
I'm 29 and had cystic acne in my teens, and was dragged around to every dermatologist in my small town (there were 2) to have it treated. Everything from Phisohex to being marked for Roaccutane. Now nearing 30, I'm much more in control of my changing skin which after having a good skincare routine has changed my complexion from oily to normal-oily, with only a few acne scars. The Purity Cleanser f...Read MoreLove it
My absolute favourite cleanser. Excellent exfoliating cleanser that doesn’t leave the skin dry.Great non -drying cleanser for those with combination skin
I've got combination skin and am beginning to deal with the first signs of ageing, and this product works really well for those skin concerns. I find it doesn't dry out my skin despite containing active ingredients which assist with any little breakouts. I use this cleanser in the evenings after I've used the Cosmedix oil cleanser.Hands down BEST ever cleanser for oily/acne prone skin
I naturally have oily skin type, and am very acne prone with sensitivity. This was recommended by a friend who is a dermal therapist. It improved my skin SO much, minimised amount of breakouts and texture within about 1-2 months of using. I have pretty sensitive skin too, and this didn't cause any tingling or burning that products so often do which is amazing. I feel like it is the best cleanser I...Read MoreCan’t go without
I got recommended this cleanser as part of my regime given to me by the girls at Melanie Grant. I love the peppermint smell, the texture and how clean it leaves my skin feeling. I also like to leave it on as a mask for extra exfoliation. I use it every night and can’t go without it. Highly recommend.Get rid of zits with this great cleanser
I use this on alternate nights as my second cleanse to keep zits and blackheads at bay. If I get congestion on my nose or a spot, I concentrate on that area and leave it on for a bit longer. But it’s a bit drying so don’t overdo it on dryer areas if your face eg cheeks and neck.Excellent effective cleanser
I have combination/oily skin, and use this in the evening as a 2nd cleanse after a cleansing oil to remove my makeup.
My skin loves it, feels and looks clean without being tight or dry, and I swear it has helped with my visible pores on my nose. I love it so much I've bought my boyfriend one and insisted he use it.Love It
After having used this cleanser once or twice daily for a week I have noticed a huge improvement in my skin. Not only does my skin feel completely clean, but the texture of my skin has improved drastically. As someone who has used more abrasive exfoliants in the past, I was hesitant as to whether something so gentle would work, but I have been pleasantly surprised. I will be keeping this cleanser ...Read MoreGo-To cleansers for Minty Freshness
I have used this cleanser on and off for many years. I particularly like it during the summer, and in winter I could recommend only using this at night-time rather than AM+PM if your skin is quite sensitive/dry.
I use this after the cosmedix purity oil cleanser.Perfect Cleanser
This cleanser helped dramatically reduce my redness and breakouts. It is gentle for my sensitive skin but it still feels so refreshing! A must for any skin type.Perfect For A Deep Cleanse
I use this product as my second cleanser at night time to really clean my skin deeply and remove any excess or leftover dirt and makeup that my first cleanser has missed. It smells nice, a tiny bit really goes a long way so a bottle lasts me forever and it doesn't leave my dry skin feeling stripped. Leaves my skin feeling super soft.Holy Grail!
I have very sensitive skin and I'm prone to hormonal break outs, this is the only cleanser I have used that has not irritated my skin but managed my breakouts and oil control at the same time!Gets rid of oil and left over makeup residue effectively without stripping off the skin
By far this is probably the most effective yet gentle facial cleanser that I have used. I am almost finished with my 10th bottle and honestly can't switch to any other cleanser without going through major breakouts and irritation.
It's a little pricey but worth every cent.super good
Removes make up extremely well, I was quite impressed! Another great product from the line.Love the smell
I love this cleanser. It is a little expensive, but I love the peppermint smell and it works great. One bottle lasts a long time too.Gentle but so effective
I love this cleanser because it feels fresh while also gently exfoliating. I notice when I haven't been using it regularly as my skin feels dull.The best cleanser on the market
I've been using this cleanser for years. It is by far the best cleanser on the market. I double cleanse, oil then this cleanser. It removes all make up really well, thoroughly cleanses the skin but does not dry it out. It is a non abrasive exfoliating cleanser that can be used twice a day without drying your skin out. Highly recommend!!Mixed feelings about this
I loved the product when I first purchased it however it can make my skin feel dry after use. It lathers well and only requires a small amount of product to cover the face and neck. It's a decent product but I'm not sure I would buy it again.Love this
Great brand and really wonderful product. I love it and use it all the time!Cleans all traces of make up off!
Love this cleanser, it has a nice tingle to it, almost a pepermint scent to it. love it, foams up beautifully and doubles as a mask! run on skin and leave for 5-10 minutes and then wash off for a deeper cleam!Soft skin
I have been using this for a week now and definitely seen an improvement in my skin. My skin is much softer and my breakouts have cleared.It’s great!
Great cleanser and gets all the days dirt and oil off my skin. I really really love it!No improvement in skin condition
I purchased this after seeing Victoria Beckham posting pics of her daily skincare routine on Instagram which included this product. I have combination skin with hormonal acne and ongoing congestion around the chin and jawline. I used this morning and night after cleansing for 2 months and was disappointed that I saw no improvement in the congestion and blackheads. It has a fresh minty scent which ...Read MoreCosmedix Purity Clean Exfoliating Cleanser
It strips the gunk and residue off of your face from the day but doesn’t dry out your skin whilst doing it. It is very hydrating actually and the consistency makes you feel like your squeaky clean.Nice but expensive
I like this it feels extremely cleansing but can be drying if used too often. I wish it wasn’t so expensiveWill make you love Lactic Acid again.
I've previously had harsh and drying effects from using other Lactic Acid cleansers, However, this is the real deal, it's gentle on my very dry and often reactive skin, yet still active enough that I notice results with prolonged usage.
I would suggest if your skin is dry or sensitive, that do the two-step process: using the Cosmedix Purity Solution Deep Cleansing Oil, then this. The...Read MoreWorth the investment

I like to put the cleanser on my dry skin for a couple of minutes like a mask and then wet my hands to start washing my face for an extra tingles exfoliationgood product
This is a very gentle exfoliating cleanser. it leaves the skin fresh and thoroughly cleaned. It has a a peppermint smell and has a cooling effect on the skin.Great for oily/acne prone skin
This cleanser leaves skin feeling super fresh and clean. It lasts a really long time, so I think its worth the price. I've loved using it, but I'm still having a trouble with my skin, so I don't want to label it as a miracle product. However I would buy again to use as a simple every day cleanseAwesome
gets to clean the skin from my excess oil but i dont see the exfoliant aspect of it, makes my skin feel super soft though, highly recommendHoly grail of cleansers
I have very sensitive skin and I'm prone to hormonal break outs, this is the only cleanser I have used that has not irritated my skin but managed my breakouts and oil control at the same time!
I made the switch 2 years ago and won't change now :)Excellent and effective cleanser
This gentle exfoliating cleanser leaves the skin fresh and thoroughly cleaned. It has a a peppermint aroma and has a cooling effect on the skin.excellent
This is such a good face wash!!! it makes my skin feel so clean and soft, it definitely gets all the dirt out and even helps clear my acne I love this so muchGreat cleanser for breakouts.
I tend to only use this only once a day, in the evenings before my heavier serums etc. It’s significantly reduced my breakouts/congestion and a little goes a long way, which I think makes the price more reasonable. I can smell the peppermint and tea tree in this and something else that’s quite metallic and not so nice, but it’s not off putting enough to stop me purchasing again.Really good!
Nice and refreshing. Makes my skin feel clean without making it dry!Amazing
Amazing cleanser that makes my skin super freshgreat product
i am absolutely obsessed with this range!I have pretty oily skin that can be sensitive at times. Would definitely recommend to anyone with a similar skin type! Cleans my face super well without leaving it feeling tight.Game Changer
After trying all the top brand cleansers, I have finally found the one! Only 1 pump needed and leaves my skin feeling fresh, my pores happy, and my complexion bright. I've stopped wearing makeup to work because my skin is now so smooth and clear.Love it
I have been using this cleanser for years now and occasionally I’ll try something different but I always comeback to this one, gets your skin really clean, love it!The best cleanser
This really is the best cleanser. Use with a Clarisonic to really boost results. Also recently read this is Victoria Beckham’s favourite!Brilliant Deep Clean
One of my favourite cleansers. I am over 40 yet still do have skin prone to congestion and breakouts yet also concerned with ageing. This cleanser removes makeup, excess oils and seems to clean much deeper than any I have tried yet leaves skin feeling lovely not stripped bare yet still super fresh and clean!

This was recommended to me by my facialist. I have acne prone skin and ever since using this cleanser it has kept my pimples at bay. My skin doesn't feel stripped of its natural oils after using it and it has a lovely peppermint scent. It hasn't improved my blackhead situation however I don't think anything will.
