Updated Review: Acure Brightening Cleansing Gel

Here’s my update on the Acure Brightening Cleansing Gel! =)

I stopped using the Acure Brightening Cleansing Gel for a while now. It didn’t work out for me. It felt like a gentle face wash at first, but it started to sting my eyes and skin. It didn’t do anything to brighten my complexion. Nothing for my acne. It didn’t leave my skin feeling clean either. I went through a couple of facial cleansers after discontinuing the Brightening Cleansing Gel. I started to use Derma E Hydrating Gentle Facial Cleanser for some time. I’m currently using a mix of the Derma E and Trader Joe’s Tea Tree Face Wash. My skin feels clean, so it’s working well. I think I’m going to switch over to the Tea Tree Face Wash once I finish the Derma E. Even if acne creams/gels dry out my skin, I still have oily skin underneath the surface. That’s just my skin type. The Tea Tree Face Wash has always worked in the end. I think I’m done searching. Hmmmm, lol. I don’t recommend the Acure Brightening Cleansing Gel. I’m really not impressed. Don’t waste your money.

Review:

I’m almost done with the shampoo and conditioner. It took me so long to get to this point because I didn’t really like this shampoo and conditioner. This is something I would use once in a while because I thought it was drying. It’s definitely not a ‘gentle, every day’ shampoo and conditioner for me. It was too drying, didn’t provide enough moisture, and left my hair strands tangled. I tried using it every day, but that didn’t work out. I decreased my use over time. And that is why it took me so long to (almost) finish the shampoo and the conditioner. So, this shampoo and conditioner isn’t for me. I’m not bothered by the perfume though. I don’t mind them in hair care products. I like it when my hair smells good. 🙂 For the price I paid, I was expecting a lot more. You know, something that cleanses my hair and leaves it feeling hydrated at the same time. This isn’t it.
