Cleansing Without Oil or Soap
This was a tall order. A woman struggling with a very unusual skin problem inspired me to create a face cleanser that was not only oil and soap free but could also effectively function as a moisturizer. Talk about demanding criteria!
This ladys only option for cleansing her face was plain old water, which (understandably) left her skin feeling dry. A prescribed neutral creme was her only moisturizer. Almost everything she tried caused breakouts, rash and all sorts of discomfort. The more I learned about her predicament, the more I discovered how little information there was to be had about the condition she struggled with.
I couldn't stop thinking about her problem. It wasn't long before I was trying to formulate a product that might be of use to people in a similar situation. A few weeks later this cleansing gel came about.
The initial testing is looking surprisingly promising. Not only does the Cranberry Facial Gel cleanse effectively, it even removes make-up. It also doubles as a moisture-giving mask that leaves skin feeling hydrated and smooth. So far, I am the sole test person and will probably continue to be for another batch or 2.
Because this cleansing gel contains cranberry (which has a fab, but unstable color), it is being monitored to see how the color holds up over a period of time.
Updates shall be forthcoming!

What's inside the bottle
The ingredients list is pretty short: aloe vera, a mix of hydrosols, cranberry, glycerine, and konjac glucomannan.The initial testing is looking surprisingly promising.
