Only face wash I use
I’ve been using purity made simple for over 10 years, it’s gentle on my sensitive skin and removes all my makeup easily. The only face wash I use.

Perfect!
This cleanser is absolutely perfect. Not too strong not too late. Just the right amount of moisture. Does not irritate the eyes or the skin. I’ve used it for several years now and absolutely love it.

No suds; no bubbles just Beautiful!
My skin looks and feels clean and smooth after washing my face. It doesn’t take a great amount of Purity to achieve great skin. My skin and I are about to be 78. Friends, neighbors and even medical professionals say “wow, you have great skin”. I agree!

Thankful to my grandmother….
About 6 years ago I went to visit my grandmother and she said “here, I have a bottle of this but never use it.” took it home, tried it and have been using it ever since. My skin has always been sensitive and it was extremely hard for me to find anything I could use to clean my skin. But even more than that, this cleans your face sooo nice. My mother isn’t as into skincare as me, but even she loves it! Will never stop using this, hopefully they never change anything about it.

Wish it was a bit more hydrating for those with dr
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been curious about this brand for ages, and I was really excited to try this cleanser. It has a light, refreshing scent and gentle ingredients, and I thought it would be great for my aging skin. However, I found it to be a bit drying for me. If you have oily to normal skin, this would probably be great for you, but for those of us living with harsh winter conditions, we might want to find something slightly more moisturizing.

Disappointed
I have been using Purity Made Simple for over 20 years and I have always loved it.. until now. The last two bottles I have purchased are watered down and not the thick creamy consistency of what I have always had. Have you changed the formula of this product? Please explain.

Great cleanser. It lathers nicely and gets ally make-up off on the first cleanse. It's also gentle on the skin. Great for everyday use.

Hydration for dry skin
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a cost effective hydrating formula. I have dry skin and my face did not feel tight are itchy. I do think it’s food enough for sensitive skin. Philosophy is moderately premium: not “luxury” high-end pricing, but definitely higher than drugstore cleansers, but worth the extra money.

Purity my go to cleanser
Wonderful cleanser that doesn’t sting your eyes which attests to its purity and gentleness. I know sometimes people resort to a cosmetic wipe but this is definitely worth the effort and your skin will thank you.

My ride or die cleanser!!!! Best of the best
This is the best cleanser I've tried in my life and will stand by it until the end of my life lol. I swear!!! I've been a long time user of this for 8 years. I have tried other cleansers here and there and I always come back to this cleanser. I've used this in my early 20s when I had super acne prone oily skin and still use it now since I've turned 30. In my 20s, I was battling oily skin and lots of acne and this was the only thing that kept my skin at bay and calmed it down. Now I'm 30 with no acne but with combo skin, and it still keeps my skin fresh and clear. I honestly can't live without this cleanser, anything else I use does not feel the same as this. My skin feels always clean and clear after using this. No film or clogged pores after, just fresh skin. Please don't ever discontinue! Would 10/10 recommend this to anyone who has oily/combo and/or acne prone skin especially for during the summer seasons, you won't regret it! If you find that it's too drying and you cleanse 2x per day, just use this once per day and then use a hydrating cleanser at night/morning.
