Strongest points
A creamy cleanser packed with potent ingredients. Wies away all traces of make up effortlessly. Smells divine and leaves skin feeling clean, soft and plump. Cleansing my face is a real pleaure with this cleanser. I have not had any breakouts at all since using Elemis Pro Radiance cream cleanser, just a fresher, radiant skin. The redness on my cheek seems to have faded a little bit too, an added bonus

Weakest points
Contains Methylisothiazolinone
Summary
My mother-in-law uses this and highly recommended it. So without thinking twice I ordered the 150ml size as I didn't envisage any problems with it.
I was over the moon with it on first use. It removed all traces of make up and caused no irritation.
However it was on day 3 that I noticed spots on my cheeks and assuming my skin was adjusting to it, I carried on using it.
After 2 weeks my skin was an absolute mess of huge red, inflamed spots. I had a quick look at the ingredients and discovered it contained Methylisothiazolinone (MI).
This is a known irritant, I couldn't believe that Elemis would use this.
I started to research a bit more and sure enough came across reviews from others who had suffered too.
It took about 3 months for my skin to recover - I used nothing but pure coconut oil to cleanse and moisturise.
I gave the remaining cleanser to my mother-in-law as it doesn't seem to irritate her skin.
If you have sensitive skin I wouldn't recommend this.
