Detailed Review
As someone with sensitive, acne-prone skin, finding a cleanser that cleans without causing breakouts has been challenging - until this ANUA Heartleaf Cleanser. The 77% heartleaf extract is a soothing powerhouse, calming redness and preventing the tightness I get from harsher formulas.
It lathers minimally, which initially threw me off, but it effectively removes daily grime and light makeup while maintaining my skin's moisture barrier. My blackheads have diminished noticeably after a month, and flare-ups are rarer. The pH-balanced formula leaves my skin feeling clean yet balanced, not stripped.
The pump bottle is travel-friendly and hygienic, with a fresh, herbal scent that's subtle and non-overpowering. For the price, this is a gentle workhorse that punches above its weight in calming irritated skin. I've repurchased and recommended it to all my reactive-skin friends.
How to Use
Dispense into hands, lather with water, and massage onto face. Rinse thoroughly. Use AM/PM as first cleanse.
