DSE Albolene Moisturizing Cleanser, Unscented, 12 Fluid Ounce

LOVE THIS PRODUCTI grew up watching my grandmother use cold cream on her face nightly, I knew there was a secret to apply a similar product because at the age of 94 she looked much younger than those that were 20 years younger than her. I have been using cold cream on and off over the years and think it is an okay product but I was never over impressed with it, hence the on and off use.I heard about this product through an older woman who talked about that it had been around for a long time, so it must be a good product. I google searched and was thrilled to see that it was sold on Amazon and has amazing reviews!I bought this product and have been using it nightly on my face, neck, and chest to combat aging skin and prevent damaging wrinkles that would likely otherwise occur from being in the sun so often.I put on the product- which is very thick- then wipe off with a hot damp washcloth. ALL of my makeup comes off immediately and leaves me with a smooth and silky feel.Some other reviews that I read stated that this was too thick and left a residue on their face. I find that it leaves no more than any other moisturizer I have ever used, including some of the really thin based and expensive ones.Immediately my face started appearing less fatigued and developed almost a glow to it, without makeup on. I also have noticed that even with light makeup on it appears I am wearing a highlighter, and Im not!I am confident that this product is great for taking care of my skin and I will continue to use it. I know there are multiple uses for this product but I have only used it for facial, neck and chest skin care to prevent wrinkles.I will update if I decide to try any other uses that are mentioned on the previous reviews.

I bought this Albolene after hearing about it on Steve Harvy. His wife recommended it for a waterless makeup remover. She explained that it melts to the touch, you apply it like lotion, it removes your makeup, and you tissue it off.I wasn't expecting it to be so much like Vaseline in it's consistency but I can see why she was saying it's such a nice moisturizer (it doesn't need to be removed with water or anything). I love that the ingredient list is short and paraben free.Come to find out, it's also an excellent hot cream. You can slather a thin coat on, wrap with saran wrap or other plastic (less clean up this way), then put an exercise belt over it. You'll be a sweat house, lol! Here's one I'd recommend, if you're interested, EzyFit Adjustable Waist Trimmer Belt - Stomach Body Wrap & Back Lumbar Support -Trim Curves, Strengthen Tummy Abs, Improve Posture, Belly Fat Burning 8 Inch Wide BeltI'm rating it 5 stars because it serves it's purpose well and doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. I found that for under $13, this 12 oz jar, is the best value I could find online. Since it's primarily mineral oil, I think it's a bit overpriced but you do get a big jar and it's very moisturizing. Highly recommended. Smile. Hope this is helpful!

Face wash: works excellent, it takes off makeup and dirt really well. Sometimes I need to use it on my eyes a few times just to really get off waterproof mascara but it does work. It leaves your skin super soft and moisturized.Moisturizer: I only use it, really on my upper arms and parts of my legs where my skin gets really dry and bumpy. It doesn't break my out and my skin absorbs it really well. Also left feeling very soft.Sweat catalyst: I can't compare it to sweet sweat because I haven't tried that yet. But I do have the sweet sweat belt and I used it underneath. I put on a lil bit more than a thin layer. It definitely makes you sweat more than you would naturally!

I was hoping this would be the answer to all of my problems, but I don't think it is. I've used this for about a week now and I'm pretty disappointed with it's inability to remove my eye makeup. I've been trying to transition out of my ultra-lazy makeup wipe and cleanser routine, but I think I will have to hold onto the wipes for my eye makeup. This just can't even begin to remove waterproof mascara. For the rest of the face it seems to work very well and leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized, so that's a plus. I don't know if I'll order it again once the tub is gone, if it ever is... it's huge!If you don't use any waterproof products then by all means, this is a good purchase. I'd recommend cerave in the tub (moisturizer) to follow it up with at night.
