MY EXPERIENCE ON KIEHLS CLEARLY CORRECTIVE WHITE PURIFYING FOAMING CLEANSER:
Well this for sure is a great buy for me. I love the feel of the cleanser on my skin; it is so creamy and luxurious. In terms of cleansing, it does a great job too. But I’m not sure if it will remove your make up completely (But I think it more or less it will). I don’t apply makeup, it’s just pollution and sunscreen at the end of the day, and I can say that this does clean my skin well. It leaves my skin really very soft and fresh. No stretchy feel at all. In fact my skin feels hydrated!
I use this cleanser twice a day as suggested, as in terms of brightening I cannot really comment on that as I don’t feel any face wash can brighten your skin! But yes my skin is definitely clean, a little brightened (but temporary) and really soft! :-D
Two main ingredients found in the cleanser are White Birch and Peony Extract. White Birch helps to reduce photo-aging and restores hydration to skin and Peony Extract helps protect against free radical oxidative damage and helps to slow down the production of melanin.

Packaging:
The product comes in a plastic squeezable tube that goes back to its form every usage :) Its design is very minimalist with just silver linings and with all the product information printed on it. The tube packaging makes it very hygienic and travel friendly.
T his cleanser has quite a noticeable scent – a blend of white birch and peony extract, which I am not a fan of but doesn’t bothers me much as it washes right off and the smell doesn’t linger.
I’m in love with its texture! The cleanser has a consistency of an airy, semi-thick white paste which has a pearlescent shine. You require very less quantity as it spreads very nicely, this tube shall last me for at least 5 months for sure!



Ok let’s sum up with the Pro’s and Con’s:
