  My favorite cleanser EVER - and I have tried my share!

  by MakeupSearcher (112 reviews)

  Top 500 ReviewerTotal Beauty BloggerTrusted Review

  The size of a dime is all you need to dispense from the bottle in order to remove every trace of makeup, dirt, and the most stubborn, sometimes hard to remove, waterproof eye makeup and mascaras. This cleanser has never failed me. It always leaves my skin feeling totally clean, fresh, and not dry or stripped in any way. I t...ry different cleansers, well, because I am a beauty blogger, but always go back to Purity. The scent is very light, and I truly look forward to using this at the end of the day to help my skin feel totally refreshed and totally clean. December 29, 2007, 10:56 am

  Great cleanser!

  by Lisakate20 (3 reviews)

  I was a little skeptical at first, but after hearing what a grat product this is I figured I would give it a try. I have combination skin with breakouts and wasn't sure if this would work for me. I love this cleanser! It removes everything and leaves my skin feeling balanced, not tight or stripped. I tried it with Hope i...n a Jar, but that was too heavy for my skin, and I'm having better luck with Hope in a Bottle. If they had an acne fighting version it would be a 10! But I still like it!

  Break out central.

  by purelife (159 reviews)

  I used this for a good three months, loving it. It has a great consistency, smell and takes off your mascara. I started to notice white bumps under my skin forming. I have never had acne and this was new to me. Something about this product doesn't leave me feeling clean. It seems like my face gets stripped of the oils and m...akeup but my face doesn't feel healthy afterwards. It feels dull. I don't have mature skin, I'm under 25 and since stopping the use of this product on my face. My skin is looks and feels much better. Thanks DDF! April 28, 2008, 7:43 pm

  The only cleanser I'll ever use!

  by oscart (5 reviews)

  I tried all kinds of cleansers, but even the ones that seemed to work left my skin dry, or red, or greasy. And after a while they didn't seem to work as well as they used to. This is the first cleanser that cleans, and doesn't strip my skin. It also removes all of my mascara, and it doesn't bother my eyes at all. I have... lots of allergies and this doesn't affect me at all. I've been using Purity Made Simple for several years (as my only cleanser) and have noticed no changes in the product quality nor the way it works for me. I'd give it 20 stars if I could. Fabulous stuff! May 12, 2008, 10:56 pm

  Fantastic, All in One Cleanser

  by dragracefan (1 review)

  I love this cleanser. I no longer have break outs since using this cleanser. I also have found that this is a very gentle eye makeup remover. Amazingly, it is more throughly as an eye makeup than any "official" eye makeup removers that I've tried, yet it does so more gently. Also, I don't need to use a lot of ...the product so one bottle goes a long way. Finally, this cleanser takes the place as any toners or other steps before moisturizing, so it saves a lot of time along with money. May 5, 2008, 9:38 pm

  Great Cleanser

  by marsbars (1 review)

  This cleanser is light and non-irritating. A friend first bought it for me, probably because she knew that I would be hesitant to buy it myself because of the price. It really is worth the price. I have acne prone, aging skin. Purity leaves my skin soothed and soft, with a pleasant fragrance. The packaging is also uniq...ue, I read it most every time I use it--and it's pretty enough to be left out. April 23, 2008, 8:53 pm

  Love this stuff!

  by browbaby (1 review)

  I am a cosmetic junkie. I have tried everything under the sun. I have somewhat oily skin, which now that I live in Fl is stickier than ever. I have always used foaming cleansers that leave my skin "squeaky clean" Of course this just makes my skin produce even more oil. Purity is wonderful, it is a cream cleanser... that foams slightly but it takes all my make up off and leaves my skin clean and comfortable. My skin doesn't have to produce more oil to make up for overstripping the skin. I love the results I have seen and have invested in other philosphy products. So far none have disappointed. My skin looks that best it has in years. April 22, 2008, 8:56 pm

  A great, gentle cleanser that worked hard on my acne.

  by BeautyIsEasy (56 reviews)

  Top 500 ReviewerTotal Beauty BloggerTrusted Review

  Philosophy's Purity Made Simple, one-step facial cleanser is a dream come true. I recently received a sample size bottle of this cleanser and decided to take it on a trip. I have acne prone skin, but am starting to experience some dryness as well, so it's hard to find a cleaner that is tough enough on my acne, but doesn't... overdry my face. My skin also has a tendency to freak out when I travel - dry airplane air, less than stellar diet when visiting family in the midwest, irregular sleep patterns and an exercise routine that is non-existant - all usually combine to create a nasty breakout a few days in to my tip. This cleanser, however, helped keep the breakouts at bay. It also removed all traces of my eye makeup and left my skin feeling soft. I even like the scent. Non-medicated, but not flowery either - it smells fresh and slightly lemony. I think I'll still need to use a stronger exfoliating cleanser a few days a week to help combat the acne, but this will definitely be replacing my daily face cleanser. I think this would also make a great addition to your guest bathroom, since it is suited to all skin types. Check out my other reviews at BeautyisEasy.com November 28, 2007, 9:49 am

  After 38 years of searching....

  by saurellia (1 review)

  .... I finally found the perfect cleanser. I am African American with oily dehydrated skin, also prone to breakouts. I have tried Proactive, Murad, various OTCs including Olay and Clearasil, several Lush products, Dermalogica... everything was either to drying or did not clean very well. Nothing helped my breakouts (except ...clearasil anti-bacterial for sensitive skin.) I was settling for the clearasil, but then I found this. This stuff is great. Smells nice, gets my face super clean but not dry, and my face is clearer than it has been in years. Love it so much I bought the giant 32oz bottle at QVC! November 13, 2007, 1:30 pm

  Most amazing cleanser ever!

  by citygirl1112 (13 reviews)

  Trusted Review

  I LOVE this cleanser it is the best i have ever used! It smells pretty but mostly it makes my skin really glow-y! It also reduces my breakouts so I only have a few spots. This cleanser removes every bit of makeup I have on, even waterproof mascara, with out drying out my skin! The trick is to massage it onto your face, wash... it off the gently dab a towel on your face to dry. If you would like you can use it as a mini face mask by massaging it on your face for a few extra minutes and leaving it on for a bit. I could not live without it. Oh and because I have a prescription benzoyl peroxide cream cleanser I mix them in my palm and my skin is perfect! March 21, 2008, 3:35 pm
