What's in My Shelf, Day 20

 

What's up grils! I wanted to share a roundup of all the skincare I’ve been using the past couple of months. I picked these up at the end of March so it’s been just over two months of consistent testing. Since I love writing quick reviews, I'm gonna show one item every day.

 

About Me

Skin type : Combo leaning dry

Skin concerns : Sensitivity, acne-prone, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and large pores

Climate : Mildly humid spring weather, nothing too extreme

Quick note : All of these products are fragrance and essential oil free. If I mention a scent, I’m referring to the natural scent that sometimes comes with unscented formulas.

 

So, Today I'm gonna talk about Arencia Calendula Cleanser. 

 

 

Rating : 3.5/5  Might Repurchase

 

I picked this up after deciding to stop using a salicylic acid cleanser as my skin needed a break and something much gentler. Out of Arencia’s lineup, the Calendula Cleanser looked like the most soothing option, so I gave it a go.

 

Overall, it’s a solid, no-frills cleanser. It lathers up nicely, feels gentle on the skin, and didn’t cause any irritation or dryness, which was exactly what I needed at the time. There are no active exfoliants, and it’s clearly designed to be calming and non-stripping. That said, it didn’t blow me away. It’s definitely functional, but nothing about it stood out as exceptional, especially considering the price. I probably wouldn’t repurchase, just because I think there are more affordable options that do the same job.

 

On the plus side, the tube lasted me a good 4–5 months since you only need a tiny amount each time, so it’s got some longevity.

 

Great if you're in need of a gentle reset cleanser, but maybe not a standout in the long run.

 

Here is my last day-shelf! Don't miss out!
