Advantages: Removes all makeup, effective for a quick cleanse

Disadvantages: Bottle can dispense liquid too quickly

This product is a two tone oil based toner which will remove all traces of makeup including stubborn waterproof mascara. It is not ideal for a cleansing routine but it is effective as cleaning the skin quickly when you don't have alot of time or energy. I would recommend taking it away on holiday as it won't take up alot of room in your makeup bag.

The packaging is durable with a twist off lid. It won't leak. The opening in the bottle is quite large for a liquid product and so the product can come out rather quickly on to cotton wool. You don't need alot of product and it lasts a long time, particularly if you don't use it all the time.

The product does not have a drying effect but it will not moisturise your skin like a proper cleansing routine will.

The product smells of oranges and is pleasant. There is no need to follow it with any toner.

There is a similar product that does not feature the two-tone oil based toner but instead is called one-step water comfort/purify cleanser (this comes in peach or in mint). I would favour the one-step facial cleanser with orange extracts as it is more effective at removing ALL makeup.

Summary: Excellent product to have for speedy skin care
