There’s a new trend in cleansers that I absolutely love: cleansers that are gentle and that remove makeup. One of my top tier skincare brands, Exuviance, has gotten on the bandwagon with new Exuviance Gentle Cleansing Creme. Yay! I received a full sized tube from Brandbacker to try out in exchange for an honest review.
Made for sensitive skin, Exuviance Gentle Cleansing Creme, is great for any skin type but it’s especially soothing for those of us who have finicky skin that can’t handle being dried out from a cleanser that’s too strong. This multitasker:
- cleans and moisturizers
- removes makeup, including eye makeup
- is soap-free.
Also, it’s dermatologist and allergy-tested.
I love that I don’t have to use a separate eye makeup remover. All-in-one is such a time-saver. It melts off even IT Cosmetics Superhero Mascara that’s a pretty heavy-duty mascara. Plus, it leaves my eye lashes feeling soft and hydrated.
The new Exuviance Gentle Cleansing Creme contains polyhydroxy acids, ingredients that appear in many Exuviance skincare products. They provide the same benefits as AHAs but without the irritation. I’m all in for that! The product even looks gentle. It’s a medium weight white gel-creme that spreads easily and melts makeup on contact. It washes clean, but it leaves skin feeling lightly moisturized.
If you have sensitive skin like I do or if you’re looking to save time by eliminating a step in your skincare routine, you must give Exuviance Gentle Cleansing Creme a try. It comes in a big 7.2 fl. oz./212 ml tube that will last for a long time. Priced at $32, it can be purchased on the NeoStrata (sister brand and parent company) website, at Ulta and other online retailers. Not tested on animals. Made in the U.S.
Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Isododecane, Propylene Glycol Dicaprylate/ Dicaprate, Glycerin, Ethylhexyl Isononanoate, Butylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate SE, PEG-100 Stearate, Triundecanoin, Cetyl Alcohol, Octyldodecanol, Stearyl Alcohol, Gluconolactone, Cetearyl Glucoside, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Althaea Officinalis Root Extract, Chamomile Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Cetearyl Alcohol, Dimethicone, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Propylene Glycol, Laureth-7, Polyacrylamide, Disodium EDTA, Chlorphenesin, Methylparaben, Parfum (Fragrance), Benzyl Benzoate.
Have you tried Exuviance skincare products yet?

This actually sounds pretty good even though I am very sceptical about using one cleanser to remove my whole face of makeup including mascara. But since this is a sister brand of NeoStrata, I have no doubt I would love it too. I seems to get along really well with their products.

There’s a new trend toward gentle, often oil-based, multitasking cleansers, Shireen. This new one from Exuviance absolutely does the trick. And so does the one I reviewed a couple of weeks ago from NUDE Skincare. For those of us with dry skin like me, it’s the way to go! And it saves a step, yay!
I like Exuviance products – I have one of their serums.

I agree. Exuviance is one of my tip pity-top tier skincare brands
I love using mine, especially on days where I get lazy with my skin care, lol.

It truly is a step saver!
Hi Allison, great review! I like that this works well on mascara removal.
Thank you, Laura! So glad to hear from you xoxo For my dry skin, this is a great cleanser. I love that I don’t have to use a separate eye makeup remover. So much easier and ultimately $ saving, I hope! Do you have plans for Easter?
I absolutely LOVE this cleanser! Excellent review, as always!!! <3

It truly is a perfect cleanser especially for the cold weather.
I STILL haven’t tried this brand, but this cleanser sounds like something that I’d really be into! I love a nice gentle cleanser and especially one that I can use to remove makeup with also!!! With having dry skin, I think this would be great to try!

I think you’d love it, Christine! So great not to have to use a separate product to remove my eye makeup. And it is so gentle and soothing to use.
Gentle cleansers is my favorite skincare trend! So much better than when YouTubers were using raw sugar to exfoliate their faces, omg. When you said that this can remove stubborn mascara, that was music to my ears! Now I have to try this.

The combo of gentle, non-drying cleanser along with built-in makeup remover is a winning combination for me, Sammi. I hope you do get to try it soon! It’s definitely worth buying during the Ulta 20% off coupon event that must be coming up fairly soon!
this sounds like something my skin would love!

It is one of my all time favorite cleanser/makeup removers. I think you’d like it
I love cream cleansers… they’re amazing for sensitive skin!

This is a terrific one, and love that it removes my makeup too 🙂
I have to add this to my try list. It sounds like something that would work well for me.

Exuviance Gentle Cleansing Creme and NUDE Skin Cleanse are both top notch sensitive skin cleansers/makeup removers. Love ’em both! I think you would too!
Generally I do a double cleanse all the time since I’m paranoid that ANY trace of makeup will be left over but this cleanser sounds REALLY promising!
Elaine recently posted…How to Contour Like a Pro
I still double cleanse, Elaine, regardless of which cleanser I use. I use Micellar Water after I use the cleanser. But I like that I can save a step upfront and skip the eye makeup remover that I used to use.
I keep reading more about Exuviance these days, and appears to be for good reason. It sounds great!!

I have loved just about every Exuviance product I’ve used, and this Gentle Cleansing Creme is one of my real favorites!
I’m always looking for something to save time so you’ve got me sold on this cleanser lol
I love not having to use a separate eye makeup remover now!
I used a lot of Exuviance when I first started blogging but haven’t lately. I was impressed with their cleanser back then. Thanks for the reminder.

I’ve had very good results from Exuviance products, Marcia. I’m a fan of just about every product I’ve tried from the brand and from their sister/parent brand, NeoStrata
I have never heard of this brand! It sounds really nice.
Destany recently posted…ColourPop Ultra Matte Lips in Ouija
Exuviance and its sister/parent brand were started by two dermatologist/researchers who were the first to “discover” using Glycolic Acid for facial peels. The products are research-based, and they’re terrific. Exuviance is sold at Ulta so you could see the whole range there. Their skincare products are incredible!
My skin can definitely be sensitive so this is a good option for me!

So gentle, it’s a good option for all skin types!
I love time saving products like this, half the time I’m too tired for an intense skincare routine.

I love that it even removes mascara! I find that these cream cleansers work really well with my Foreo Luna. I like the extra slip they provide.

One of the best ever cleansers!
I want to try this! Yours is the second great review I’ve read.
Kristina recently posted…NYX Ombre Blush | Mauve Me & Soft Flush
I have dry sensitive skin, so this product is perfect for me, and I don’t have to use a separate eye makeup remover. It says it is for all skin types. It’s not heavy and greasy like some of the cleansing balms I’ve tried.
Cream cleansers are so nice in the warmer months when my skin is finicky!
It seems like cleansing balms are everywhere now. I loved it for winter, and I’m sure I will for spring too
I have yet to try this product but I heard good things about this cleanser! I enjoyed your review!

There are so many cleansing balms right now. Have you gotten any cleansing balm samples in your boxes yet?
