I really don’t like to review cleansers, but I will have to write one for this beauty.ย I’m usually quite meh about cleansers and honestly, how much can you really say about a cleanser?ย I have tried another cleanser from Belif but wasn’t super impressed with it.ย This one landed at my front door through Avon since they started carrying this cleanser and I just had to give it a try.ย The gorgeous signature citrusy Belif scent is amazing!ย Also, if you didn’t know by now, Avon is own by LG household and beauty, the same brand that owns Belif, The face shop, Dr Belmeur, and The history of whoo.ย In Canada, you can actually find Avon products in store at the Nature collection which is a but odd to me but also exciting!ย Anyways, let’s get into this quick review.

How to use:
Take a penny-size amount of the product in your palm and lather with water. Massage gently and thoroughly over the face and rinse with lukewarm water. Use daily, morning and evening.
Product packaging:
I love the bright blue color those choose for this cleanser and the cute graphics.ย I don’t want to admit this, but the packaging does something to a person subconsciously and makes you want to use it more if it is pretty.ย That’s just a matter of fact and I’ve definitely gravitated to this cleanser a lot.ย ย
It comes in a simple squeeze tube and a pop-off cap.ย Clearly, mine is well-loved and dirty.ย Yuck!
Texture/ Finish + Effects/ Results:
The Belif aqua bomb jelly cleanser is exactly what the name suggests.ย It is a clear gel and foams up slightly when you massage it on your face.ย The description says it is formulated without sulfates SLS and SLES that contain less than 1% of synthetic fragrance.ย I definitely didn’t feel like my skin was stripped of its natural oils and I actually felt somewhat hydrated afterward.ย I’m not sure if it helped with any uneven textures in my skin, but my skin condition was kept at an optimal status when I used this cleanser.
pH level:
pH 7 (dabbed directly onto cleanser)
pH 5 (mixed with water)
This might frighten some of you but I didn’t feel like this was a problem for my dry skin
Fragrance?:
There is Belif’s signature bright citrusy that is so awakening (even though I usually use it at night when I shower haha).ย I personally enjoy the scent a lot and it doesn’t linger on my face after it is washed off.ย Smell-o-scale: 7/10 in terms of how strong the scent is and it does fade after it is washed off.
Pro:
-hydrating
-doesn’t strip my skin
-foams up slightly for an enjoyable lather
Con:
Nothing in my opinion!
Repurchase?:
Yes!

Overall thoughts:
I thoroughly enjoy this cleanser and have been continuously using it for months now and still have the majority of the tube.ย The scent, the slight foamy texture, and the overall formula make this cleanser one of the most memorable ones and dare I say, top 10?ย I’m highly impressed and would recommend you guys check this cleanser out if you are looking for a hydrating cleanser.
