Goat Milk & Rice Foaming Cleanser

I have slowly incorporated SB products into my care routine after becoming frustrated with the whole of the commercial skin care market - lots of promises, few results, lots of skin irritation and questions of “just what IS in this product”. With SB I can decipher just about all of the ingredients and easily do research on the components. The Goat Milk and Rice cleanser has become my favorite cleanser and it might be because of the smell alone - love the cinnamon notes! I have been using this cleanser for about 4 months and am pleased to note my skin is much happier and overall well balanced - no dry patches, fewer breakouts, hydrated plump skin. The product is milky and lathers well. It wipes away completely clean with no residue. My makeup wears beautifully over it. Also no increased sun irritation. I think my only feedback is that some scents could be rather strong for some consumers and would love to see some fragrance and nut oil free product options for sensitive folks.

I started with the Donkey Cream as my very first product from the sabbatical beauty line, about 3 months ago. I finally found a product that didn't cause my skin to irritate and based on the reviews from others regarding sabbatical products I was convinced that the entire line would do wonders for my skin. I was wrong. I ,soon after, decided to purchase more products (Milk/rice cleanser, vacuum oil, calm cream, coffee scrub and toner) and my skin appeared to be flourishing, until recently. I noticed after washing my face with the cleanser, followed by the toner and donkey cream that my skin would ooze liquid from tiny bumps on my forehead. The condition gotten worse as time elapsed and those small bumps turned into a rash. I consulted with my derm and found out I have contact dermatitis. I reviewed all ingredients from every product I've used with sabbatical and noticed that 'fragrance' ( which by trade secret laws, can mean synthetic or natural but doesn't need to be fully disclosed natural and was listed as one of the ingredients in the facial cleanser. Very disappointed, especially after bein told that their products didn't contain any synthetic fragrances.

This product is absolutely beautiful. I have highly textured and sensitive skin, and i noticed a difference after just two uses.

I love this cleanser. Sabbatical suggests using the vacuum oil cleanser first to pull out the junk of the day, then follow up with goat milk & rice foaming cleanser to prepare your skin for next steps. The vacuum cleanser gets a lot of hype (for good reason), so i wanted to emphasize here that this cleanser is its best friend!! My breakouts have gone away almost completely using this duo. I feel like my skin is a blank slate to soak up serum/lotion after. Can’t recommend enough!

Had no expectations but this is a real pleasure and I think I'm addicted now. Smell is great, foams up well, and just feels great after. Follow directions for use for best experience. Wet your face, press a dime sized amount in your hand, and then work in your hands until foaming action starts.
