Questions & Answers for Algenist Gentle Rejuvenating Cleanser

Question
DOES THIS DRY OUT SKIN?
I HAVE USED THIS PRODUCT FOR 2 DAYS ALONG WITH THE SERUM AND MOISTURIZER, MY FACE SEEMS TO HAVE DRIED OUT AND SHOWS MORE WRINKLES. IS THIS PRODUCT FOR OILY SKIN ONLY?

I didn't have good luck with the serum. I do use the overnight cream at night and the firming and toning during the day. I returned the serum because I thought I noticed it was starting to clog my pores.

I'm a big Algenist fan and I feel it doesn't require any serums so I don't use any. I don't know how, but possibly the combination somehow is drying your skin - Algenist is very hydrating for me. I use the eye gel and once used a serum and cream -- whoa - too much can be NOT good - so that may be the problem but I'm not sure - it's just a suggestion - try leaving the serum out.

I have oily skin and I find that sometimes it can dry out my skin. I've only been using this since summer, so fall/winter will tell me. Right now if my skin feels dry I'll alternate it with Cliniques liquid facial soap (only because I still have 1/2 a bottle).

Most new product will dry out the skin. In the beginning this dried my skin too, but I stuck with it and my skin has never looked better. The dryness went away and my skin looks very healthy.

I have an oily T-zone, but my cheeks are super dry. I haven't experienced a problem with my skin drying out from these products. Instead it has seemed to balance the PH of my skin. If you feel dry though, I would recommend trying another product or adding something to your current routine to increase moisture levels.

Can I use Algenist Gentle Rejuvenating Cleanser to remove eye make up?

Only if its minimal eye makeup. I would think it would irritate if you just used it as an eye removal cream

I wouldn't count on this to remove my eye-make up - personally I remove it with eye-make up remover then wash with Algenist. Then again this would depend on how much eye make up you use, too and whether or not it's a very waterproof or water-resistant kind .... but if you're counting on a cleanser to remove most eye make up (mine are usually waterproof or resistant) then I would use Fresh's Soy Facial Cleanser. I was surprised at how much eye make-up came off one night when I was so tired I didn't care if I left my eye make up on - but that cleanser took it off.

I wouldn't. I got a little in my eye while washing once and it stung like crazy.

Hi, I wear regular mascara (not waterproof) and SPF moisturizer so I'm glad that this cleanser was able to remove both effectively. I hope this is helpful and good luck ^_^
