So, So Coco Makeup Remover & Cleanser Cream

Ok, so - I never review things, but after almost a week of trying this product, I feel like this deserves some words. Since I'm in my 30s now and work in an industry that requires me to wear makeup on the daily, I take my skincare routine and products very, very seriously. I typically use prestige beauty products (Tatcha, Drunk Elephant, etc.) that cost $50-100+ per cleanser/creme/whatever, but I consider that an investment in cruelty-free, all-natural, high-quality, sustainably sourced goods that work for my skin. So, when a friend recommended I try something that cost $13 and could be found on Amazon, I was skeptical; I figured it either wouldn't remove the makeup, or would leave residue/gunk and clog my pores like tons of other products have (Alba Botanica, I'm looking at you). Nevertheless, I said sure. I'd try it. The ingredients ARE all natural, it's a LOT of product for the money, the process, is easy, and worst case, I can go back to my normal stuff.Sooo...I am totally not going back. For 1/4 the price of what I've been paying, I got a way better product. My skin is so freaking smooth and fresh and happy right now, it's absurd. This takes the makeup right off not just my face, but my eyes - eyeliner, mascara, the whole deal. No raccoons or pandas in sight. Just pat-pat, wipe-wipe, et voila! All done and feeling fresh AF. I have combination skin, so this neither dries me out nor leaves me feeling oily - I just have perfectly hydrated skin and when I wake up in the AM, I feel clean and ready to start the day. No breakouts, no residue - just healthy and happy skin.

Generally, after washing the face with normal face cleanser, the skin feels rough and dry. It will be a pleasant surprise to feel refreshed and moisturized after using this product to wash the face. If your job requires you to wear makeup in daily routine, you should take skincare routine and products very seriously because lots of use of makeup makes your skin sensitive. The texture is soft and melts easily in the skin, so a little goes a long way. All ingredients are natural. It is organic and, most importantly, vegan and cruelty-free, which is an essential feature for any beauty product. Your skin will be freaking smooth and fresh, and you will be happy right after using it. No breakouts, no residue - just healthy and happy skin. It’s a great makeup remover. Especially if you find heavy washing mascara around your eyes, uses this efficient makeup remove. The mascara instantly disappeared. Once you use this makeup remover cream, you'll not be going back to any other product. It helps you to prevent and treat wrinkles and fine lines. Moreover, it's the best product for beauty and makeup lovers who are always in search of new products to try. The price is affordable, the best product for the money.

I generally have a difficult time washing mascara from around my eyes. But with So, So Coco my mascara didn’t linger, it instantly disappeared. After using this product, my face felt so clean, fresh, and cool. Generally after washing my face, my skin feels tight and dry, so it was a pleasant surprise to feel so refreshed and moisturized after using this product to wash my face. It’s a great makeup remover!

I have allergies so I can't do strong smells, this cleanser is great smell-wise! Not strong smelling at all. And it seems to remove make up well, and isn't drying. However, I feel like it leaves a kind of sticky residue on my face for a little bit after I've rinsed (I use it in the shower). And maybe its just me, but I don't think it really does anything as far as cleansing to prevent break outs. I'm not happy with it. I found something else to try.

I have used Clinique for more years than I can count. However, just recently, I discovered that they do animal testing. So, I started doing research to find substitutes for the various Clinique products I use, and discovered this makeup remover. I did a comparison test between the So, So Cocoa and the Clinique makeup remover, and this is what I discovered.1. Both had almost the exact same consistency.2. Both took off my makeup really well.3. There was no difference regarding the way my face felt after I used both products.4. There was a major difference in price. The cost per ounce for the Clinique was almost twice as much as the So, So Cocoa.To summarize, I'm very happy to have found a cruelty-free makeup remover for sensitive skin that performs just as well, but costs about half of what the more expensive product costs. It's really a no-brainer, and I just hope they keep making this because I'll definitely buy more when I run out.
