• Customer Service: Very quick response to my emails and questions. Shipped VERY fast! Thanks Kelly B.! They are a really great company, I love what they are about! A little about the company: Kristy Guerra started the family owned and operated company as a way to honor her grandmother who battled breast cancer for a decade. For every product they sell, $1.00 is donated to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. What I like the most is that unlike so many “Pinkwashing” companies out there, they DO NOT use any suspected carcinogens in their products! YAY! All of Acure’s products contain at least a minimum of 70% organic ingredients and many of their products are completely USDA Certified Organic, Fair Trade Certified or both! They are  also Vegan, Gluten Free, Sulfate Free, Cruelty Free, Paraben Free, PEG Free, Petroleum Free, Phthalate Free, Silicone Free, contains no Mineral Oil or Synthetic Fragrances. Acure Organics believes that each day you vote with your dollars, supporting the companies that share your values (and so do I) and wants to help eliminate people’s exposure to toxic chemicals in cosmetics and help educate them on the benefits of food-grade, organic ingredients.
• Sample, Trial, Travel Sizes?: Not that I’m aware of. It would be awesome if they made travel sizes!
• EWG’s Skin Deep – Cosmetic Safety Database Rating: 1. YAY!
• Verdict: I would definitely buy this again! I LOVE it! Smooth, foamy gel that lathers with very little product which is great for normal to oily skin. Leaves my face feeling clean and refreshed, but not squeaky and stripped- which is good. It doesn’t bother my sensitive eyes or contact lenses and I have had no breakouts so far (fingers crossed). I will definitely update if any of this changes in the future. I really like that only two tiny squirts (unlike a lot of other natural products where you have to use a ton) removes ALL of my makeup pretty quickly- without scrubbing and without a trace left behind! AMAZING! This super-skinny pump bottle will probably last me MONTHS and is listed at a very reasonable price point considering you use so little! It’s a 2-in-1 multi-use product… Makeup Remover/ Face Wash, which allows me to skip a step in my beauty routine… especially when I’m lazy at night and don’t feel like removing my makeup before bed (Bad Girl! LOL). More beauty sleep for me, Ha! Another nice thing about these products (for all of you who like to make your own beauty products at home) are that their containers seem to be re-usable when you’re done. Really nice, durable bottles to recycle or re-fill with your own recipes (I know, right? How green of the The GG? LOL). In my book-  this product is a keeper! This is THE BEST natural face wash I’ve found so far and has ALL the things I was asking for!
