Q: Given the oat flour in this, is the product gluten-free?

submitted by meontg - 11 months ago
  • A: I don't think this is gluten free with the oats. I've been using this on my face the last couple of days, not realizing it contained oats and I'm have cross contamination symptoms.

    submitted byRhonda - 10 months ago
  • A: Gluten sensitivity affects the digestive system & is not absorbed by the skin. If you don't eat it, it won't enter your small intestine where the damage occurs in people sensitive to gluten.

    submitted byTaxi - 24 days ago
  • A: Our Gleanser contains a gluten-free processed oatmeal but if you have a sensitivity or allergy to gluten, we advise avoiding, due to potential for cross contamination in processing.

    Amazing cleanser but pump breaks

    Absolute favorite cleanser ever and works amazing on my eczema-prone skin. However, I’ve bought this twice and both times the pump broke within the first few uses.

    Gleanser

    This is a wonderful cleanser that will leave your skin feeling both clean and moisturized. I love that it does not have a scent. I use it as the second step in my double cleanse and it is a solid product. It glides on easily and feels nice on the skin. You really don't need much and it is very gentle. I have tried many cleansers over the years and this has become one of my favorites. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who enjoys having a clean face without feeling stripped.

    HG for dry skin

    What’s not to love about this cleanser?! It’s a sensitive/dry skin girl’s dream and it’s super affordable! If you suffer from that tight feeling after cleansing you need to try this. It might take some getting used to because this leaves a glycerin-feeling residue (maybe residue is not the right word) on your face but it leaves your face feeling clean and moisturized afterwards, there’s nothing like it! This is now a staple for me.

    W.O.W.

    When I first saw this product before I used it I was like "do we really need a new word for cleanser?" But now I get it. I am a GLEANSER convert! The glycerin just provides such amazing slip so you can use elegant motions with your hands to get an effective cleansing experience. You can actually control how much it foams, whether you want a pillowy foam experience or just wanna slip-n-slide. The glycerin is SO AMAZING, it cleanses yet moisturizes and just leaves my skin less reactive, calmer, brighter, and ready for skincare. I love the glam packaging, it looks great as a decor piece in my bathroom. I have eliminated TWO cleansers since using the gleanser because it over performs so well, and now there is only 1 other cleanser that I like to use, which coincidentally Dr. Sam Ellis uses as well.

    Absolute favorite cleanser

    Manages to be both actively hydrating (not just less drying) and not leave a film. Like genuinely if my face feels dry and tight it feels normal after washing my face with this. Worked great when my skin was combination type, would highly recommend if you have combination skin and are struggling to find a cleanser that is strong enough for oilier areas of skin but not harsh on dry skin. Still works great even with my dry skin now. I would say it will probably work for most skin type excepts very oily or very dry. Can be worked up to a very silky borderline creamy lather, but it’s such a gentle lather that if you don’t like foaming cleansers you’ll probably still like this, and you probably won’t like it if you like super bubbly foamy cleansers. Inexpensive and the bottle is big, should last you months.

    This is now a new staple in my skin care routine

    Ive been eyeing this cleanser and finally purchased. I usually use makeup remover for my mascara. With this cleanser there was no need, it completely removed my makeup. It didn’t strip my face of moisture and leave it all dry. Will definitely be repurchasing, I’m in love.
