Smells nice, as with all Aveda products. Gently, yet thoroughly cleans. doesn't irritate my sensitive skin, but leaves it sparkling clean.
Weakest points
Found the pump made it tricky to control the amount dispensed, but this is a very minor quibble.
Summary
Pleasant to use, effective, yet gentle.

Our household is a fan of Aveda products and their skincare range is just as high performance and quality as their haircare. My husband loves this range as it contains natural ingredients and is simple to use. This range is also suitable for women. If you like the feeling of washing your face this gel cleanser is excellent for removing dirt, makeup and excess oils without stripping your skin of its natural oils. The gel has a subtle herbal fragrance and foams beautifully on a damp face for a deep cleanse. After rinsing your skin feels cleansed, refreshed, soft and hydrated. This cleanser also works efficiently at rebalancing oily complexions and never causes breakouts or irritation.
The bottle is an attractive olive green with a handy and sanitary pump which prevents over usage of your product. The bottle is long lasting and excellent value for money
