Young Goose, Adaptogenic Cleanser | Gentle Facial Cleanser | Soap Free, Paraben Free | Normal to Sensitive Skin | Large 180ml

This is my second bottle and I love! It’s gentle but yet cleanse well and keeps my skin nice and soft!

This only came in a box that was slightly open and didn't have a seal on it, which is a bit disconcerting to me when getting products online. I did decide to still try it out though hoping that it's just the way this company sends their products out.This cleanser lathered up really well and was able to clean my skin exceptionally well.I love how gentle this felt on my skin too as it didn't cause any irritation to my sensitive skin.This should last a long time as you get a decent sized bottle, and you only need a small pump or two to be able to clean your face.Overall I was pleased with this product, I just wish it was sealed!!

From the first pump it is easy to tell that this soap-free cleanser is pure in every sense - it's crystal clear, and the viscosity is in between that of a serum and a liquid face wash. It lathers well (see photo) and it leaves my face "really" feeling clean afterwards, as it doesn't leave that waxy/lotion feeling that always results after using soap cleansers that are packed with oily chemicals and fragrance. The scent is really nice - it's a little on the heavier side for a facial cleanser, but it's light and fragrant and it actually smells unique when compared to traditional soap based facial cleansers. My favorite feature (in addition to it being soap free and natural!) is that this cleanser is adaptogenic - it's the perfect base wash to use prior to applying daily/nightly toners, serums, and moisturizers - and I actually feel like the serums that I use regularly are penetrating my skin more deeply as opposed to how they feel when I use regular soap based face wash prior to applying.Overall, I am really pleased with the quality and benefits of this cleanser, and the value definitely aligns to the cost - I'm a big fan!

First thing, it smells like ginger. It’s a distinct smell, not bad, just gingery. It felt nice going on, nice texture, rinsed well, felt clean. But afterward my face felt a bit tight and even a little itchy. So maybe not great for overly sensitive skin or roscea. If you’re skin is normal, you’d probably like it.

First, the manufacturer packaging is not very good. The box had already popped open in transit, and the pump top had already fallen out by the time I received it. I’ve been fiddling with the pump to secure it back on and I think I might have just received a defective one. I’ve been able to get it to work, but it definitely requires some finagling. The cleanser itself is nice and gentle. I don’t usually like chamomile, but the scent is light and pleasant. No problems for my sensitive skin. It is gentle without being overly drying. A nice cleanser, but perhaps a little bit expensive compared to other similar products.

This Young Goose cleanser, with its ginger and chamomile, smells like it came from a very serious health food store. It doesn’t smell bad, I actually like it, but it does smell like a Berkeley co-op. It has a very slippery consistency that was nice and I needed to use a lot less than I expected to (their instruction for 1-2 pumps seemed small, but was spot on). It foams up enough, feels very gentle, and got my skin noticeably clean (a little on the squeaky side, but it felt good). This is a great cleanser and I have no complaints.

This cleanser feels quite high-end. The packaging and even fragrance are qualities I would expect to be from a luxury product. One pump is enough for me so I expect this bottle to last for a long while. It is quite pricey, but the thorough cleansing power might justify that. This leaves my skin feeling very clean and nourished. Very pleased with this!

My typical face evening regime is a gentle-skin, non-soap cleanser followed up with a facial toner. The Young Goose cleanser left my skin feeling a bit tight, but soft, after washing. Despite feeling tight, it doesn’t dry out my skin which most soaps do. The YG cleanser has a light scent and doesn’t foam much, and it has a smoothness a bit like aloe. It’s also nice that is free of parabens and sodium lauryl sulfate. A nice product, albeit pricey.
