Texture and Consistency

Pros:

  • "Feels silky going on and gets my face squeaky clean."
  • "I enjoy the texture of this moisturizing face wash including the beads in it."
  • "This has a great exfoliating texture gentle enough for the eyes."
  • "There is a light scrubbing texture to the wash for exfoliating, but doesn't over exfoliate or feel harsh."
  • "The little scrubbing beads feel great on my skin, cleanse and exfoliate great and my face feels refreshed and very clean after."
  • "It’s like soft butter with a handful of seeds tossed in."
  • "A creamy, grainy face wash."

Cons:

  • "After using it, it is rather greasy than clean. Didn’t feel moisturizing, nor firming, sure not feeling any improvement in my skin, only feeling is oily and heavy."
  • "It’s so thick and doesn’t rinse off easily."
  • "The exfoliating beads are too large and not enough to actually feel like its exfoliating your skin."
  • "It kinda felt like rubbing lotion on a wet face."
  • "Too creamy, no lather, doesn't take off any makeup."
  • "It feels like some sort of gloopy clay with gravel mixed in."
  • "This cleanser is nice, but it's thick and comes out in globs if not careful."

Scent

Pros:

  • "The scent is really good!"
  • "It has a natural floral aroma with the apples and hibiscus."
  • "Refreshing AND moisturizing to the skin with a light floral scent."
  • "The scent is really mild. It has the earthy, clay-like smell of 'unscented' soaps along with a very light fragrance."
  • "I love the smell, it’s very grounding with its earthy undertones."
  • "The fragrance is natural and pleasant and does not make you hungry."
  • "Smells amazing and Burts Bees is one of the only cleaners that prevents breakouts."

Cons:

  • "But this Renewal Refining Cleanser smells like baby vomit."
  • "The smell is so so so weird."
  • "The smell! At first I literally had to hold my breath while washing my face because I couldn’t handle it."
  • "However, I find the scent is pretty overpowering and doesn't smell natural at all."
  • "I can't believe how bad this stuff smells."
  • "This cleanser though, it smells terrible! It smells just like vomit!"
  • "This stuff smells overwhelmingly like decay algae or something."

Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "This works so nicely with my 67 year old face skin."
  • "Worked perfectly, I ordered this a few weeks ago and I'm ready to update on the results. Removed acne, made my face “glow” and helped remove blackheads."
  • "After about a week of 2x daily use, I saw a big change in my skin. It is noticeably softer."
  • "Face looks more vibrant and healthy again."
  • "I have been using the Burt’s bees skin care line for about 8 months now and I can definitely say it is one of the BEST options that I have ever used."
  • "Deep cleans without stripping the moisture out of my skin."
  • "My skin stays soft longer, and feels clean."
