The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam in Acerola

I won The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam in Lemon at our White Elephant last year and I loved using it because it was gentle, refreshing and didn't make my face feel too tight. And the lemon scent was energizing, something I liked since I generally used this cleanser in the morning. The great thing about Face Shop products is that it takes months to finish them off... but since I just finished mine off before starting this blog, I get to review my new cleansing foam.

Hello, The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam in Acerola

What's an Acerola? It's a tropical fruit bearing shrub known to be rich in vitamins C, A, B1, B2, B3, carotenoids, and bioflavonoids which are thought to be strong antioxidants. This cleansing foam is infused with acerola extracts among other natural ingredients to give you a mild and gentle cleansing experience. Everyday impurities and buildup are easily handled by this cleanser while at the same time, it delivers nourishment directly to your skin.

I love the scent even more than the Lemon Cleansing Foam! It reminds me of cherries and I have to say, it seems to do a better job of cleansing my face than its predecessor.

For the purpose of this review, I will state that I have generally oily skin in my T-zone area (forehead, nose and a little around my mouth) and I used to favor products that were a little stronger to combat the buildup on my face after a long day. But since trying The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foams, I've noticed that a gentler product did a better job of keeping my skin clean and healthy.

Beauty Boost

• The scent is amazing! Sweet and fruity fresh but not overpowering.
• You only need a small amount to work up a good lather for your face and neck.
• Doesn't sting your eyes (I opened my eyes accidentally when I was washing my face and I was amazed it didn't sting at all!)
• Since it's a cream formula, it leaves my face feeling thoroughly but gently cleansed.
• Soothes any irritation I might have from stress/travel-related breakouts.
• Helps manage blemishes and while making your skin feel soft and supple.

Beauty Boo

• No smaller size available for this one, only comes in a 170ml tube so I can't bring it along when I travel.
• Doesn't wake me up as effectively as the Lemon one so I might tweak my morning routine a little.
• Haven't really noticed if it helps with blackheads or whiteheads.

I really like The Face Shop Herb Day 365 Cleansing Foam in Acerola because it gets the job done with minimal effort and it's great if you want a soothing facial cleanser before you snuggle into bed. I would definitely keep using it and I'll probably buy the same cleanser, or maybe just choose from the other variants (Aloe, Mung Bean or Peach) when I'm done with this one!
