NOXZEMADeep Cleansing Cream 12 Ounce, 2 PackCompact by Design (Certified by Amazon)

Thank you Amazon for making Noxzema accessible. I’ve used this cream for 50 years and in the early days it was difficult to buy. In my teens, the instructions were different. It used to say you could use it as a cleanser, moisturiser, Aftersun (coolant) and the eucalyptus was an insect repellent. My daily regime (for 50 years) has been to shower and then apply as a moisturiser to my face. My theory is the cream protects my skin all day and when I next shower the Noxzema and grime, from the day, is washed away. Well, it works for me and my friends say I have very good skin.

I first stumbled across Noxzema Cream – in a 50ml tub – forty (yes, four zero!) years ago, when visiting Bombay (as it was, then) in HMS AMBUSCADE. I seem to remember, back then, that the instructions stated that excess cream could be left on the face, but I may be wrong – and that certainly isn’t stated on current tubs.Anyway, back to 2023…I am utterly overjoyed to have found this cream again: I have very oily – but very sensitive – skin, and Noxzema just works…and how! The use of eucalyptus oil in the formula is both stimulating and pleasingly fragranced, and the addition of soybean, and linseed, oils keeps the face moisturised while cleaning.But it doesn’t stop there: I actually use the cream for shaving! I know Noxzema makes shaving products, but – so far – I’ve only found the foam. I don’t get on with shaving foams: they are too light, and – on my skin – fail to give a good, clean shave. Noxzema Cream, on the other hand, is a pleasure to use, leaving smooth, clean skin after rinsing off; not only that, but I never suffer from burn, or nicks, when shaving!Overall, Noxzema Cream receives my strongest recommendation, even at a tenner a tub! Now to find their Shaving Cream, to give that a go – but I suspect I might just return to this product, in the end…😉

I have been using Noxzema for many many yurs. Initially as an emulsive pre shave preparatory cleanser and most recently I have started having noxzemic bathes, which are extremely beneficial.

I have used it for years before makeup etc fresh smell no perfume and wonderful stuff!

Whilst not wanting to discourage anyone from buying this product I can only report that I was disappointed after buying it. The reason has nothing to do with how good it is, in fact it is a good product and removes my makeup well. Why I won't be buying it again however is because it has to be washed off with water rather than being wiped off with cotton wool or tissues. This might sound petty, but for many years I have chosen to clean my face without using water. Other cleansers I have used in the past haven't needed water to remove them and are therefore convenient for me to use in my bedroom at night without having to head off to the bathroom to wash them off. I'm in my 70's now though so probably I'm just being lazy!

I love this stuff. I heard it's good for the deep cleaning so gave it a shot. It's quite a big tub for the price so it'll last a while. I put on a layer of Noxzema before I brush my teeth at night, once I'm done brushing I move onto another type of brushing, the spin brush. I massage the cream into my face then wash it off; my skin is so soft and feels so clean. I thought I was good at cleaning my face but when I looked at my spin brush the cream had striped away the foundation that I thought I had taken off with my makeup wipes.I love it. It is now part of my skin care routine.

I've been washing my face with this for over 50 years!

Great product
