Swisse Olive Leaf Gel Cleanser Review - Best Cleanser For Oily and Combination Skin

By Ritujain
A good skincare routine starts with  a good cleanser. It is the most important product in your skincare stash because if your skin is not cleaned properly, it will never be healthy no matter how many moisturizers, serums or masks you put on. A good cleanser comes first of all as it makes the skin ready to absorb the goodness of your masks, serums, hydrating mists, toners and moisturizer. Check out
Although a good cleanser depends entirely upon one's skin type and for some it is creamy and moisturizing whereas for others it is oil free and foaming, yet a common definition that fits well for all the good cleansers focuses on 2 main points which are:

  1. A good cleanser should be able to clean your skin by removing dirt, dust, excess oil and makeup
  2. It should be gentle on your skin and should not rip the much needed moisture off your skin
Today in this post we are going to introduce one such cleanser that does what it is supposed to do and at the same time, is very very gentle on your skin. This is one of the best face washes that I have ever usedThis is Swisse Olive Leaf Gel Cleanser which contains Glycolic acid and Salicylic acid and is good for blemish prone skin.

Review of Swisse Olive Leaf Gel Cleanser
This is a clear gel like cleanser with a medium consistency. It does form little bit lather and feels really gentle on the skin. It has a light lemon grass sort of fragrance which is very refreshing and soothing. I used it with and without makeup on my skin and it did a great job in removing the makeup. It removed the cream based products like foundation and concealer in the second round. However with water proof mascara and waterproof gel eyeliner, I had to use a q-tip dipped in Swisse micellar water to remove the traces that it left on my eyes. It does not irritate or burn the eyes and that is what actually proves how gentle it is because I have really sensitive eyes and most of the products sting them badly if they come in contact with my eyes. Regarding it's effectiveness as a makeup remover, I would say that it does a great job in taking off our daily wear makeup but is not equally efficient with gel based eye makeup and waterproof mascara.

Does Swisse Olive Leaf Gel Cleanser remove dead skin ?
It has Glycolic acid which is a gentle exfoliater and removes the dead and dull layer of skin without causing any harm to the good skin. I never felt any dryness or lack of moisture in my skin. I could easily see the freshness in my skin after cleansing my face with this olive leaf gel cleanser from Swisse.

Best Cleanser for acne prone and sensitive skin 
The second ingredient that makes it a perfect cleanser for oily skin, combination skin and acne prone skin is Salicylic acid which has proven benefits to reduce and stop acne. Before I started using this cleanser, I used to get 1 or 2 acne occasionally on the sides of my cheeks and forehead. However, after using this cleanser daily for two times, I never saw any new acne and the ones that I already had started to dry.

Does Swisse Olive Leaf Gel Cleanser help with blemishes ? 
I can not comment on it's efficacy for blemishes as I don't have any but considering the ingredient list and it's efficiency as an exfoliater, it can be trusted for sure by those who have blemishes because a good exfoliater prevents the blemishes by improving the blood circulation and texture of our skin which keeps blemishes away.
Does Swisse Olive Leaf Gel Cleanser Contain parabens ?
It's probably hard to believe that there is a product which is so effective yet gentle and that too without having any harmful chemicals,parabens, SLS, SLES, Synthetic fragrances and colours, petrolatum, silicones, mineral oils, PEGS, TEA, Urea, Peroxide and animal products. It is not tested on animals and hence is completely cruelty free.
Besides all this, I would like to add that it is required in very small quantity and is complete value for money. It is available in one size only which is 125 ml. I wish they had a smaller size packaging too. I will continue to use it especially till the time winters don't hit us in Melbourne.
