Review: Beaucience Botanicals Cleansing Gel
Hello lovely humans of the internet!
I wanted to share my thoughts on a new product I've been testing out for the past week, and that is the Beaucience Botanicals Cleansing Gel. But before I get into the review, let me quickly tell you about how I actually got this product, because I think it's so cute haha.
So, my mom called me one day, all very excited (as her little red-headed heart always is), and she tells me she's with a lady called Michelle. I was very confused, as I was on an extremely noisy train on my way home, and the ol' Trish was just so excited.
She basically ended up telling this lovely lady about my blog, and my love for all things beauty, and Michelle very generously gave my mom the cleansing gel for me to try out. It was very cute, so thanks mom!(Love you!)
Anyway, onto the review!
Beaucience is a brand that creates beauty products that aims to create younger looking skin, by means of their special ingredient, Proteasyl (which is basically peas) hahah. It's pretty great!
This is unique to Beaucience (as a South African manufacturer), and it's in all of their products. They have a huge number of different ranges from baby, to men to luxury, and the list goes on.
I kindly received a Botanicals Cleansing Gel, and a sample of their Botanicals Day & Night Cream, and let me tell you now, was I grateful for that cream! After my lovely allergic reaction to the L.A. Girl Foundation (-_-), my skin was in need of some SERIOUS TLC, it was bad.
This cream didn't just smell absolutely amazing, but it hydrated my desert-skin, so beautifully. I applied it before bed and I was very happy with my soft and supple skin that I woke up with in the morning. I need to get myself some more of this stuff!
The cleanser is also lovely. Of course the first thing I noticed when I opened it was the smell of it. It has that perfect "natural/organic smell", I don't know how to explain. Basically any other natural or organic products that I have, have this stunning, fresh scent. It just makes me very happy when I smell it.
The consistency is gel-like (as the name suggests lol), and when applying it I feel great because it feels and smells so fresh. I really enjoy that I look forward to using it everyday.
I use one full pump (which is a generous amount, mind you) when I use it to remove my makeup, and half a pump every morning and evening for general cleansing. They instruct you to use the cleanser every morning and evening, but most importantly in the evening. Obviously so that you cleanse the day away, and have a fresh face before bed!
As you'll see in the pictures below, it removes makeup extremely well. However I'm not certain on it clearing my skin. I haven't had a break out with this product exactly, but I've definitely had spots popping up this whole past week whilst trying it.
Now, this could be due to a number of things; I've been very sick, I've been stressed, my skin has been going through a slightly difficult time, or this product is actually drawing everything out of my skin (which is brilliant), and I'll only notice a more significant difference after a longer use. I can't be sure which one it is though haha.
All-in-all, it's a pleasure to be able to try this product out. I'm all for natural, age-preventing beauty products (even if I'm only 20, it's good to start off early!)
Beaucience are also animal-
cruelty free of course, which makes me even happier to support them.

Check the effects of the Botanicals Gel Cleanser below:
This is the gel like consistency, it's lovely, and foams just the right amount, removing makeup with ease and leaving your face feeling fresh and clean.
Here are some pictures of me before cleansing/removing my makeup with the cleanser. As you can see, red lips, and slight smokey eyes :)
And here is my face post cleanse! I didn't use any other products after the cleansing gel, I only dried my face (which they specify on the bottle that you to do so by drying your face using upwards strokes, helping with age preventing!)
As you can see, it removed my makeup very well, melting it away. There's only a slight red tint from the lipstick, but that's it! I personally find that very impressive. But here you can also see some spot that have been arising around my mouth area recently. It's rather strange
Anyway, that's my review. I hope you found this helpful and you can check Beaucience out!
