REVIEW: NO. 7 HOT CLOTH CLEANSER

The No. 7 Hot Cloth Cleanser is
my favourite facial cleanser and has been for some time now. Boots say “the
combination of this rich indulgent cleanser and the gentle exfoliating muslin
cloth removes dead skin cells and daily grime whilst stimulating circulation,
leaving your skin deeply clean, soft and radiant”. I have to say that I absolutely
agree!

I first bought this cleanser on a
whim as I had a No.7 discount voucher at Boots and decided to try something
new. I’m so glad I purchased it as it has made a real difference to my skin. I
take two pumps of this cleanser and rub it in circles gently onto my skin after
removing makeup with my Bioderma. No.7 recommend that you run hot water over
the face cloth and place it on your face for a short while. I do this occasionally
but not every night; although it feels nice I don’t find that it makes much
difference. You remove the cleanser with the cloth and then splash your face
with cold water. After use, I find my skin looks really clean, fresh, bright
and moisturised which is a must for me as my skin is quite dry. This is
something I hadn’t experienced with other cleansers and is one of the reasons I
love it. Apart from how my skin looks right after using the cleanser, it really
does improve my skin in the long run. I do still suffer from blemishes now and
again, but they are a lot less visible and angry than in the past.

The cleanser is dispensed by a
pump, meaning there is minimal waste and that you can really get your money’s
worth out of the product, unlike if the product was sold in a tub. I find two
pumps to be the perfect amount for me, and using this twice daily for nearly
four months shows that the No. 7 Hot Cloth Cleanser is definitely worth the
price, at £9.95 for 200ml. The cleanser is super creamy and soft, and although
it does have a very slight scent it’s very subtle and clean.

The only disadvantage I can find
with this product is that it isn’t great for travelling. The packaging is quite
bulky which means unless you have plenty of room in your travel bag, it’s
probably best to decant the cleanser into smaller pots. Having said this, I don’t
think it’s a huge deal and it definitely doesn’t stop and won’t stop me from
repurchasing. I’m currently on my second bottle and if anything changes I’ll
definitely post an update.

The No.7 Hot Cloth Cleanser is
suitable for all skin types as it doesn’t leave a greasy residue on your face
but does keep your skin moisturised. It’s also fairly cheap compared to other
cleansers although it does the exact same job! I would definitely recommend
this cleanser to anyone as I really enjoy using it and am so happy with how my
skin looks after sticking to my skincare routine.
