Its not bad

I got a sample, it lasts for ages and is an ejoyable use - but, would not repurchase. didn't feel it got all my sunscreen/makeup off.
  1. Good

    Abow

    I received this from Adore Beauty and couldn't wait to use it. It is great as a morning cleanser, or part of your second cleanse at night after you have removed your makeup first. Its nice, claming and gentle, a good cleanser
  2. Very concentrated, excellent for makeup

    Chelle11

    Great value for money. Takes off all my makeup and I use a stay in place foundation too. I have combination skin I'm 56 and its not drying. Works out cheaper than buying inexpensive cleansers as you don't need as much. LOVE IT.
  3. Good

    Serenie92

    Good cleanser. Doesn't over strip the moisture from my skin. Leaves my face feeling fresh and clean.
  4. Good cleanser!

    Jay

    A lovely light cream cleanser. Leaves my face feeling fresh but not stripped of the good natural oils
  5. Not bad

    Dhanoa

    Not a bad cleanser itself but the packaging is not good as the last quarter of this product is hard to get out.
  6. One of the loveliest cream cleansers ever

    Elizabeth

    I had previously thought that a good cleanser was a waste of money ... surely a good wash with warm water is enough, right? Well, I've learned my lesson especially since I added extra active ingredients into my routine and wondered why I was getting some mild reactions! I've had this balancing cleanser in my cosmetic drawer for a while and started using it again to prepare for adding the Alpha H ...

  7. The ideal morning cleanser

    Anna

    I love using this cleanser in the morning, as it is gentle and cleans my face without stripping all the work of my night time products away.
  8. Love it!

    Gem

    This feels so soft and silky on your skin. Would defo recommend!
  9. REMOVES ALL MAKE-UP

    Chelle

    This brand I love as its concentrated, only a small amount needed. Removes all traces of makeup , read directions as you do need to remove after with a warm wash cloth.
  10. Used for years!

    Lauren

    I have used this for years. It works well as a cleanser when I have no makeup or sunscreen or a 2nd cleanse if I do. The bottle lasts a long time, over a year for me, so it's definitely cost effective! I have skin prone to dermatitis and this doesn't irritate it at all.
  11. Good

    LS

    Good cleanser that doesn't feel too drying.

    Gentle crème to lather. Moisturising post rinsing.

    helps with my redness, i love to massage it on my skin.
  14. My saviour!

    Al

    This is fantastic! There were a few weeks where my skin had a bunch of hormonal breakouts and my usual attempts at cutting back on active products weren't working. This did though!!! Really brought my skin back to its happy place.

  16. Great gentle cleanser

    Jane

    This is a lovely gentle cleanser and it works great on my sensitive skin! The only downside is the price point for a skincare basic but I will grab again when it is on sale!
  17. best cleanser!

    Gabby

    I have been using this cleanser for a few years now! It is so soft and gentle, leaves your skin feeling so fresh and clean without being intense or overpowering. This cleanser definitely helps maintain my skin barrier. Can't recommend this cleanser enough!
  18. BEAUTIFUL CREAM CLEANSER

    Veronica54

    Love the creamy soft and cleansing properties of this product. Slight aloe Vera scent and I love aloe Vera in any product. Great economic cleanser for my sensitive skin.

    Jess

    I use this product after an oil cleanse in my evening routine. It's so gentle and my skin doesn't feel dry afterwards. Also, the tube lasts and lasts! Definitely recommend this product, and it was also recommended to me by a friend.

  27. Great cleanser

    Alice

    I really like this cream cleanser. It is very soothing and gentle on the skin and leaves my skin feeling smooth. My only criticism is I dont love the screw off cap which can be inconvenient to take on and off whilst washing your face. Great product and great sized bottle.

  29. So soothing

    BG

    Really love this gentle cleanser. So soothing and soft on the skin. I use it as second cleanser in my double cleanser and it leaves my skin feeling refreshed.
  30. Gentle and effective

    Sam

    This cleanser is gentle and effective. It doesn't leave my sensitive skin feeling taught and it easily removes most make up. Probably not an ideal cleanser if you've been wearing heavy make up or greasy sunscreen, but for everything else it appears to do the job.
  31. Not bad

    SR

    While I don't have any complaints about this cleanser, I certainly don't love it. Its fragranced, which I don't like and it's not particularly effective at removing dirt and makeup. My face is left not feeling tight which is a plus. Average at best!
  32. Value for money

    Caitilin

    I was recommended this by a friend as I was looking for a cleanser with cleaner ingredients and this product is amazing! Such a gentle cleanser that leaves skin clean but not tight. One tube lasts me at least 8 months despite using it twice daily - such great value for money!
  33. The BEST cleanser I've ever used!

    Natalie

    I cant even tell you how long I have searched for a cream based cleanser which didn't leave my skin oily and shiny (I'm not even joking when I say it's been close to a 2 year expedition) Well ... my search is well and truly over, let me tell you! This cleanser is 185mls of amaziness! After each use my skin felts soft and clean , no tightness and irritation. I also love the fresh aloe vera scent ...

  34. No actives for post-laser facial

    Becky K

    I got this as a simple gentle cleanser for pre- and post-laser facial, when you're not allowed to use harsh acids or cosmecuticals. It works well in that respect but is no where near as cleansing as my normal Dermalist lactic cleanser.
  35. Love it!

    Toni

    Really happy with this cleanser. My preference was always a foaming cleanser to wash off in the shower but found they sometimes left my skin feeling tight. Even though this cleanser is a cream it is light and washes off lovely in the shower leaving my skin feeling just right. More economical if you can purchase the large pump pack as I did.
  36. Perfect for in between

    Kymie McEwan

    This cleanser was amazing for my skin when I felt like I was no longer overly dry, but definitely not oily. It was light weight but highly effective l eaving a very soft and clean finish
  37. Amazing!

    Jerri

    The best cleanser that I have come across so far. Usually, my skin feels so tight after cleansing but my skin actually feels so hydrated. Such good value for money too! Will be buying again.
  38. Great product

    Kristen

    This product works well without stripping your skin! I've definitely noticed a more hydrated feel and appearance since introducing this product to my skincare regime. Half a star off due to feeling like I need to use a bit more of the product than other cleansers.
  39. Pretty good

    Lola

    Happy with how well this works. Cleans my skin without stripping it and helps with impurities. Love it!
  40. just okay

    Thi

    i have dry sensitive skin and this cleanser didn't dehydrate or irritate my skin. But I think I can similar products at a lower price point.
  41. Nice and gentle

    May

    Really nice and gentle cleanser. I have fairly sensitive skin and this didn't cause any irritation and was super balancing. Winner for me!
  42. Lovely creamy cleanser

    Jackie Z

    I have never used a creamy cleanser like this before having acne prone skin. I was suffering a lot of dryness and I found this cleanser was very hydrating, maybe cause it doesn't strip the skin. After a while my skin has gone back to being oily/acne so I feel for my skin this is best used at night in combo with a foam/gel cleanser in the morning.
  43. My favourite cleanser hands down

    Laura

    I’m in my 40s with combo/oily skin (occasional hormonal acne) and have been using this cleanser for many years. Always a devout foaming cleanser user, I tried this and have never gone back! So light and creamy, does well cleansing in the AM and PM. I apply a 10c piece size amount to damp skin, massaging and leaving for a minute before rinsing. Leaves my skin feeling clean and comfortable, never dr...

    I have recently started using this cleanser and for someone with sensitive skin, it has been amazing. From the very first wash, there was no reaction and it was gentle on my skin yet still giving the fresh clean feeling, plus it hasn't dried my skin out. Also who doesn't love using products that are cruelty-free and Australian made! It's ticking all my boxes and will definitely be purchasing agai...

  45. Gentle cleanser - great for dry, sensitive skin.

    Lily

    Alpha H is the only skincare range I have been able to use without having a red allergic reaction. I have highly sensitive skin and am allergic to most make-up and skin products. I love the Balancing Cleanser because it is so gentle on my skin and leaves my skin smooth but not irritated. Great for sensitive, dry skin!
  46. Great for dry skin

    Maddi

    I had a travel size of this cleanser and didn’t like it at first, but took it on a short trip with me and ended up loving it. Cleanses really well without drying the skin and feels really nice to use.
  47. My Absolute Favourite Cleanser

    Laura

    Always an avid foaming cleanser user, I received a sample of this cleanser and have never looked back (or used foaming cleanser again). This has to be hands down my most favourite cream cleanser for the last few years. I was absolutely devastated when Adore stopped stocking the 500ml pump bottle. Perfect for my morning cleanse and for my double cleanse in the evening. I’m not a makeup wearer so ca...

  48. Decent

    Tarma

    Decent cleanser, although I will always prefer the Skinstitut one. Also the packaging isnt my favourite, again I prefer the Skinstitut gentle cleanser
  49. Gentle face cleanser

    Ran

    I used to buy foam face cleanser. When I first started using this, I found that it was not very well adapted to foam, but later it was found that this cleansing milk was gentle and could wash my face, and I love Alpha H very much.
  50. Lovely and gentle

    Emma

    I had heard lots of good things from my local beauty & skin therapists about Alpha -H products and thought the best way to ease into the range was with this gentle cleanser. Not only does is do its job of cleansing, it leaves my skin feeling so soft. The fragrance is soothing also.
  51. In love!

    Jordy

    Absolutely love this cleanser. I have normal but sensitive skin and this cleanser has been so great. I bought a travel size first to try and bought a new one before the travel size was gone. Gentle, removes make up and dirt and leaves my skin feeling smooth and fresh ready for the rest of my routine.
  52. Soothing cleanser

    Julie

    I was originally given a sample of this cleanser and I love it. I just wet my face and eye make-up, and then gently rub the cleanser over my face and neck. I then wet some cotton pads and remove my make-up easily with no stings or irritation.At night I do a double clean. I love how clean and soft my face feels and I recommend this for sensitive skins, and even mature skins like mine.
  53. Best Cleanser Ever!

    CW

    Love love love this cleanser I am on my 6th tub of it! Best value for money as well. I have PCOS and my skin is slightly temperamental but this literally soothes breakouts and makes my skin so smooth, double cleansing with it at night is a must. I highly recommend this cleanser to dry, normal and combination skin!
  54. Light creamy texture

    Kat97

    A lovely cleanser that I use on those days where I don't have to remove makeup or when my skin is irritated. A slight tingle on initial application, leaves my skin clean and fresh without being too striped as I have sensitive acne prone skin.
  55. A little goes a long way

    Sofia

    I received a sample free gift of this cleanser, and all I can say is wow. It worked wonders for my skin. It isn't too effective at taking off makeup but works really well if you double cleanse. It is well priced too. Can't wait to purchase.
  56. Nothing special

    Sally

    It removes my light make up and is relatively hydrating, but it’s expensive for what it is. I’ve bought more effective products for far less at the supermarket. I wanted to love it but it’s just a very average cleanser.
  57. Great cleanser, expensive

    Olivia

    Alpha-H has amazing products. The cleanser is no different, but like all other Alpha-H products it's also quite pricey for what it is. Makes your skin feel great, but my skin isn't sensitive so it can handle anything and I'm sure I could find a cheaper alternative.
  58. Amazing for dry skin

    Jphers

    This product is so good for those that feel stripped after cleansing as it completely eliminates that feeling. Super creamy and hydrating whilst being gentle on your skin. Perfect on its own when you are wearing little to no makeup but I would recommend double cleansing if you are a heavy makeup wearer.
  59. Chose triple Action over balancing

    Emma

    This cleanser is average. I have normal to dry skin and whilst this cleanser is not drying on the skin, it isn't the best at removing makeup and washing the day off with ease. Definitely prefer Alpha H triple Action cleanser over this one and will switch back to it!
  60. My favourite cleanser

    Claires27

    Love this hydrating, gentle cleanser. Great value for money, it seems to last forever. Great for rosacea.
  61. feels so clean!

    Shelley

    This cleanser is so gentle but also makes you feel so fresh and clean after cleansing. Not tight or dry feeling afterwards. Probably more suited to sensitive/not acne prone skin but also a great addition to any routine that needs a gentle cleanse every now and then.
  62. Best bang for you buck

    Dorothy

    I was a bit shocked when I saw it, it is just big! The packaging looks absolutely good, but yeah I am a minimalist myself. I've used this one for a while and Iove it! It is a pleasant new find!
  63. Moisturising

    C

    I have dry skin with a few fine lines popping up. This cleanser made my skin feel soft and refreshed, with no tightness afterward. I liked that it didn't leave a weird filmy feeling after washing off. No real scent and a little goes a long way.
  64. An everyday essential!

    Leticia

    I have bought this twice and absolutely love it! Cannot fault it all. I love the milky texture and the way that it cleans my face. It leaves my skin feeling clean and soft. I use this twice a day, morning and night. Highly recommend and will definitely repurchase.
  65. Nothing Special

    Kaylee

    I did not mind this face wash, however for the price I would not repurchase. You can get nearly an identical wash at priceline for $15 for 250ml and it works exactly the same. I did find that it was gentle and non-drying and my skin did not have an adverse reactions to it.
  66. Greatest cleanser for dry skin!!!

    loz

    Okay, I cannot explain how amazing this cleanser is. After being on oratane for over 2 years, this is literally the only cleanser that works for my skin. It doesn't leave me feeling dry, but rather makes my skin feel so clean and hydrated; a combo which is really had to find in cleansers. Cannot recommend enough, the alpha h entire line is fantastic
  67. Good but nothing amazing.

    Liv

    This is a nice basic cleanser, but it won't knock your socks off. Smells fine, doesn't leave your skin dry or oily and it's a decent size so it lasts a while. Probably won't repurchase for the price point.
  68. Leaves your face so soft!

    JKav

    This product has no over powering fragrance, which is brilliant. A little also goes a long way and after use, your face feels super soft and not dried out like so many other cleansers - this is the only cleanser I buy now, I think I’m on my third or fourth!
  69. Nice

    Wynwok

    Nice cleanser, doesn’t sting my eyes, does a good job for combo skin
  70. Skin is left feeling cleansed!

    Goca

    I use this as my every day cleanser a little goes a long way. Soaks into the skin well removing make up etc and leaves skin feeling tight, firm and 100% cleansed. Having sensitive skin I have not had any irritation, just nice smooth results.
  71. Everyday cleaner

    Stella

    The perfect everyday cleanser to add into your routine! I use this morning and night.
  72. The perfect winter cleanser

    Tjh09

    I know a lot of people say ‘but I can’t even feel this working’ but that’s not what cleansers are for! They are for balancing the skin, they shouldn’t leave your skin feeling dry or be abrasive. This cleanser is exactly that. It cleans my skin in such a soft way, it’s perfect for winter when you’re dryer and more sensitive, or I use it in the morning after the gym just to wash off sweat cause I do...

  75. Great morning / second cleanse

    Rachel

    For ref: 47 y.o, dry skin. This is a brilliant morning cleanser or second cleanse. Gentle, nourishing, lovely. I don't think it would be much good at getting makeup off, but don't think it's designed for this. I've moved to a cheaper cleanser. However, I think I'll go back to this. It's actually pretty good value in the large size.
  76. Gentle and effective

    HollyC

    Purchased after reading a beauty review about the product. I suffer from moderate hormonal acne and I am working on re-building my damaged skin barrier. I was looking for a gentle cleanser that I am able to use daily and I came across this one! I've been using it for approx 2 weeks with my Foreo cleansing device to get a deep clean and have been happy with how my skin is feeling. Only negative for...

  77. Lovely & Gentle

    Ve

    I've been using this cleanser for a week or so now, and It feels more like a moisturizer than something to clean the dirt off your face. Which is something I'm not used too. But I find all Alpha H products amazing at what they do, this product cleans and doesn't dehydrate. I am enjoying it so far.
    I pair this with the super scrub every other day to keep my skin clear and glowy
  78. Lovely basic cleanser

    TiaO

    I have been using this cleanser on and off for a few years now, it's something I always come back to. It's very gentle and calming yet effective at removing makeup.

  80. Leaves my face feeling soft

    Rani

    This is a very smooth and soft cleanser. Make my skin feel nice but I haven't noticed any crazy changes from using it but definitely nice to use. Good price too, I would buy again.
  81. average

    leigh

    this is okay, didn't do anything negative to my skin. It is pretty average and probably not worth the money for a basic cleanser.

  85. Wonderful cleanser

    GG

    This is a lovely, gentle cleanser that seriously does the job. Remove all oils and dirt from the face, but doesn't strip the skin of natural oils. I find foaming cleansers are too stripping so this milky cleanser is perfect. Leaves the skin super clean but supple and smooth. Has a lovely scent too.
  86. Love this!

    Wellsy1982

    I loveeee this cleanser, I use it everyday, it makes my skin feel amazing and seems to keep it nice and clear, I will be ordering the same again just before it runs out. Highly recommend this one. Love alpha H products!
  87. Lovely cleanser

    Kristy

    I find this cleanser to be really lovely on the skin while doing a great job of cleansing the day away. I find it to be hydrating rather than drying and it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin.
  88. Wonderful for my mature skin

    K

    The texture of this cleanser is beautiful on my mature skin. Gives my face a thorough clean.

    I love Alpha-H products, and recently purchased this cleanser. I have sensitive skin and eyes and often find many cleansers irritate my eyes and leave them red and sore. This cleanser is super gentle and does not irritate my eyes or skin. My skin feels super hydrated after cleansing, not tight and parched like some do. I use this as the second step in my double cleanse (following an oil cleanser)....

  92. Amazing Cream Cleanser

    Sylvia

    This is an AMAZING cleanser! It cleanses gently but very well when my skin is feeling oily and grimy. When it's sensitive and sore, it leaves my skin feeling soothed and comfortable. That's pretty bloody amazing in my books! It's a very light cream cleanser that doesn't leave a thick film on skin. It's simple yet does the work of 100 other cleansers just as well, if not better. Worth every penny.
  93. Worst experience

    Edwina

    I love Alpha H products and have never had an issue with them. I also have very durable skin that thrives on chemical exfoliants and is in no way sensitive. For the first time in my life, my skin has reacted negatively to a product. I used this at night before I went to bed to wash off the grime of the day. When I woke up the next day, my face was COVERED in red small pimples. There was not even a...

    This product is a lifesaver and super calming on the skin. During seasonal changes I get dry patches around my chin & lips and the creamy texture of this cleanser + the aloe vera really help to combat this.
  96. best in the biz

    litia

    This cleanser was my first non-drug store facewash and it changed my life as a teenager with oily/acne prone skin. It's so gentle but so effective. Removes makeup really well, leaves my skin feeling so soft and fresh.
  97. Super Gentle

    Isabel

    I have really liked this cleanser. It is super gentle and doesnt leave any residue. The only downfall is it doesnt remove heavy eye make up.
  98. Great everyday cleanser

    Bee

    So gentle on my acne prone skin leaves it smoothe and soft. Great for everyday use
  99. Love this cleanser

    Kirby

    I have combination skin and love this cleanser. I use it as a morning cleanser sometimes but most often as my second cleanse of an evening after a balm or oil to remove makeup. Leaves skin feeling fresh and soft without any residue or tightness. A little goes a long way and it goes on really lovely.

    With combination skin that is very sensitive I have tried a lot of cleansers over the years. My skin is very dry but still prone to breakouts so I'm always on the search for a good cleanser. I have been using ASAP's Gentle Cleansing Gel which I love, but found the Alpha-H Balancing Cleanser almost like a lotion! It's creaming and smooth. And when I used it on my eyes to remove eye makeup it was ...
