I received my packages from my MAC Cham Pale collection haul, so I will be posting a haul for you tomorrow. To kick of the weekend, I am posting a review of a product I had not used in years, but recently bought and started to use again.
Product Brand and Name, Price (CDN), Where Purchased
Noxzema The Original Deep Cleansing Cream (334 ml container), $6.27 CDN @ Wal-Mart
Reason for Purchase
Recently, I was looking for a deep-cleansing face wash type of product and thought I would give an old favorite another try. I have not used this product since I was about 14 years old - over 10 years ago!
Notable Features
On the front of the container, the product’s benefits are listed as: ‘Tingles and refreshes for soft, smooth skin with Eucalyptus Oil’.
On the back of the container, this information is listed: ‘The Original Deep Cleansing Cream deep cleans to remove dirt, oil, and make-up without overdrying. Feel Noxzema working as it tingles and refreshes, leaving skin feeling soft, smooth and healthy-looking’.
Packaging
If you go hunting for this product in it’s original package - a small blue jar - you won’t find it!
The packaging is new (literally, it says ‘New Look’ in an aqua-colored text bubble on the front label); the product comes in a giant plastic dark-blue tub with a gray twist-off lid.
Experience Using Product
What a blast from the past. Even if the packaging has changed, the experience of using this product is still the same: that cool tingle as you cleanse your face.
This product has never, and still does not, irritate my skin. You don’t need much to wash your face with - but if you want a deeper clean or a more intense tingle-feeling you can apply more. I know some women who wear it on their face as a cleansing mask (applied very thinly) and wash it off when it dries.
Would I Re-Purchase, Recommend, or Reject
I would absolutely re-purchase! You get a lot of product for a nice price, which is awesome. I would definitely recommend this to someone who wants a deep clean and does not have a sensitivity to menthol, camphor or eucalyptus.
