THE VERDICT:

There are days wherein you just get so tired and busy that the last thing you want to do at the end of the day is go through your entire skin care routine. This happens to me most of the time, especially on workout days- I sometimes wish that I could just mix up my makeup remover, facial cleanser, and toner and slap them on my face, rinse, pat dry, then off I go to dreamland. It's not that simple, eh? On days like this, I use Purity Made Simple 3-in-1 Cleanser-it's skin care made simple and easy. It just requires at least 3 minutes of your time and you're done for the day! I discovered this product a long time ago through my Mom and when I tried it, it instantly became one of my favorite facial cleansers.

PHILOSOPHY PURITY MADE SIMPLE 3-IN-1 CLEANSER FOR THE FACE AND EYES IN DETAIL

This product is one of Philosophy's cult favorites. It's a makeup remover, facial cleanser, and toner in one product-all you need right after is just your serum and moisturizer to call it a day. It claims to dissolve makeup rapidly and cleanse pores effectively with its pH balanced formula, and contains infusions of Sage, Chamomile, and Carrot to calm the senses and soothe the skin.

It's a milky, low- foam cleanser that's made to practically suit any skin type. It has this Lavender-Chamomile scent that's smells so good and so relaxing. I just use my hand with it as I find that it doesn't foam up well with sponges since it's low-foam. If you want to use a cleansing tool with it, I would suggest a buffing skin brush, a towelette, or anything that isn't too porous. If you've checked the ingredients list, you'll notice that it contains a bevy of essential oils. Such oils can trigger an allergic reaction on sensitive skin, so conduct a patch test prior to purchasing if you have this skin type. Hopefully, Philosophy will allow to give out samples of this product to customers.

PHILOSOPHY PURITY MADE SIMPLE 3-IN-1 CLEANSER FOR THE FACE AND EYES IN ACTION

Here's how I use this product:

As a makeup remover- I apply it all over my face and let it sit for a around 3 minutes. It has a tingling sensation so that kinda' helps shrink pores.

As a facial cleanser- after using it as a makeup remover, I just wet my palms with water, rub my face to foam up the cleanser, and then rinse it off.

It has a toner- like effect afterwards because it leaves your skin feeling fresh and matte, but if you want to be sure that your pores are really clean, swipe on a regular toner right after. It's not super drying even if it takes out excess sebum on the epidermal surface. However, it cannot remove waterproof mascara and since it has a cooling effect, it stings my eyes for a wee bit so nah, I do not use this to remove eye makeup.

I don't normally repurchase facial cleansers, but Purity is something that I'd gladly come back to once in a while because it's a no-nonsense, economical facial cleanser that's so simple to use and cleans  and freshens effectively. A little expensive, but bottle is so huge (240ml, baby) and will last for about 2 months even if used twice daily plus, it's more than just a facial wash. :)
