About Belif Creamy Cleansing Foam Moist
This is a vitamin-C-rich creamy foam cleanser infused with natural herbs that gently but effectively removes makeup and impurities while hydrating the skin.
This face cleanser is a one-of-a-kind blend of vitamin C-rich apothecary herbs, including wormwood to prevent breakouts, soapberry to detoxify, and sweet flag to cleanse and soften.
These botanical ingredients are effective, natural, gentle, and non-stripping cleansing agents. The creamy lather immediately removes impurities while respecting the skin's natural moisture barrier, making it ideal for normal to dry skin. One more highlight of this product is that it is formulated without mineral oil, SLS, synthetic preservatives, dyes, fragrances, and animal-origin ingredients.
The Product
It comes in a soft off-white creamy paste with a pleasant herbal scent. The texture is that of a mousse. The product foams up nicely and quickly into rich bubbles, making it easy to remove dirt and impurities.
After using it, though, my skin feels stripped of any moisture and kind of tight after cleansing. Do you know the squeaky feeling that you get after using some face washes? I experienced exactly that from this. Considering that this product is meant for normal to dry skin, I feel that shouldn’t have been the end result after using the product.
How to Use It
- Lather up a penny-sized amount of the product in your palm with water.
- Massage the face gently and thoroughly before rinsing with lukewarm water. It can be used twice a day, in the morning and evening.
Pros and Cons

- The face wash has a nice consistency and texture and lathers well.

Would I Recommend This Product?
This cleanser is good in many respects, but I'm hesitant to suggest it because of how it made my skin feel.
It produces a rich, luscious lather, and it has a rich, herbal aroma that makes me feel like I'm at a spa. But when I rinse it off, though, it significantly dries up my skin. My skin feels squeaky clean after using this cleanser, but that's not what you want in a facial cleanser.
It's unsettling, especially for someone with dry skin, to feel as if all of my face's oils have been taken away. I wouldn't recommend this cleanser because of how it peels my skin, and personally, I would not recommend it to anyone.
