Pai Camellia Cleanser Reviews


Review of Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser
By Zainab C.

Packaging The Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser comes in a little pot which is beneficial as it is re-usable. The design is classic and modern with black writing over clear plastic and a white lid. The full size product is packaged similarly in that it is clean and modern. The full size product comes in a pump dispenser design.

Application The Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser is a white cream with a gel like consistency. It has an interesting scent, which, although calming, may not be pleasant for some people. It was easy to apply and can be washed off with water. However, I found that it worked better, and cleaned deeper if it was removed using a damp muslin cloth.

Ingredients All of the ingredients in Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser were natural with several essential and vegetable oils. This cleanser has luxurious, rich ingredients such as rose water, Shea butter and manuka oil.

Results The overall result was that my skin was left cleansed, refreshed and nourished. The cleanser got rid of any grime and dirt and added a nice glow to the skin. It did what a cleanser should do to a high standard.

Pros: Very natural, rich ingredients
This cleanser did not dry out skin whilst cleansing and removed make-up well
Leaves skin feeling nourished and thoroughly cleansed

Cons: The scent may not be to everyone’s taste
· The packaging could have been more eco-friendly
· This cleanser was very good and there isn’t anything else I can put in the ‘Cons’ section!

Pai Macadamia Skin Cream Reviews


Review of Pai Macademia and Rose Skin Cream

By Louise M.


Packaging The Pai Macademia and Rose Skin Cream is contained within a beautifully decorated little glass pump dispenser, it could certainly take pride of place on your dressing table. The pump is also a hygienic way to work your way through the product without repeatedly putting your fingers back into the same jar. In line with the company’s ethics the pump is recyclable and comes with minimum packaging to minimise the product’s environmental impact.


Application Pai Macademia and Rose Dry Skin Cream has one of the most velvety textures of any cream I have ever tried. It is rich and creamy without feeling like it is sitting on the surface of the skin and from experience that seems to be a difficult balance to strike! Beyond the texture of the cream, the scent is also striking. Like many other natural face creams it smells of a very pleasant mix of rose germanium and roses, beautiful on its own but the scent does last a while and I found I needed to avoid wearing perfume as well.


Ingredients I have incredibly dry and sensitive skin, especially on my face and I tolerated this cream without any adverse reactions at all. The macademia oil and shea butter had wonderful moisturising properties and I imagine that the rose water would make this cream an especially good choice for mature skins. The formula of Pai Macademia and Rose Skin Cream also contains borage oil which I have used previously on my eczema so from my own experience I would have no hesitation about the benefits of this cream’s plant-based ingredients. I was also gratified to find out that Pai does not use any chemical nasties in their products, nor do they do not test on animals.


Results I was very impressed with this Pai Macademia and Rose Skin Cream. It looked feminine, sleek and modern in the packaging, felt like velvet on the skin and managed to keep my very dry skin hydrated for several hours (which is no mean feat). The scent of rose geranium was pleasant although a little overpowering, but this would certainly not stop me from using the product again. I imagine that over time the moisturising benefits would soothe skin further, so it would be worth sticking with it over several weeks.


Pros: Looks good and rather expensive in the bottle

· Has a wonderful texture which strikes the right balance between feeling rich and absorbing easily

· Really did moisturise my skin

· Has a raft of natural ingredients which did not aggravate my sensitive skin


Cons: The scent may be a little overwhelming

Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser Reviews


Review of Pai Camellia & Rose Cleanser

By T Gunson


Packaging The Pai Camellia & Rose Cleanser comes in a small white plastic pot, with a screw top lid which gives you easy access to the cream. The packaging has the recycle symbol on it.


Application When I first used this Pai Camellia & Rose Cleanser, I thought the cream was going to be thick and hard to work with, but in fact it was the other way round. I found it easy and quick to use and quickly became part of my daily routine. The cream was white in colour and felt soft to touch and easy to clean off.


Ingredients They use some organically grown products which you can smell when you use the cream, which I love because I know I’m not putting any man made chemicals on skin. The ingredients were put on the outer packaging in English.


Result After using the Pai Camellia & Rose Cleanser on my face it felt soft, clean and moisturized. When I wash my face in the morning, I always need to put moisturizer on after but with this product I didn’t feel the need to do that. After a month of using this, my face was baby soft and looked healthy. I will definitely buy this product and use it again.


Pros: Leaves my face feeling soft and moisturised

  • Smells fresh and summer like without being over the top
  • Uses natural/organic ingredients which you can smell
  • Easy to open and close pot

Cons: It is a small pot and quite expensive for the size.

  • It was only a sample pot
  • After a few uses I found it started to go a yellow colour

Pai Geranium Skin Cream Reviews


Review of Pai Geranium Skin Cream

By Liz B.


I liked this Pai Geranium & Thistle Combination Skin Cream. The texture was smooth and silky and left my skin feeling very soft. The Pai Geranium Skin Cream was very natural smelling with a strong scent of geranium – I liked it but I think it might be too strong for those not keen on heavy essential oil scents.


I think Pai Geranium Skin Cream would suit a combination skin that errs towards oily, or a drier combination skin in the summer. It wasn’t really rich enough for my cheeks in autumn, although I think it would be great in warmer weather. On my oily T-zone Pai Skincare Geranium Skin Cream was just right, and did not make my nose extra-shiny. From my sample usage I would consider buying the full size product for summer use.

I can’t really comment on the packaging of Pai Cream for Combination Skin as I only have experience of the tester product. However, the full size product of Pai Geranium Skin Cream seems to come in a pump dispenser, which is my preference. I do not like to use moisturisers from pots, especially natural ones with short shelf lives, as they will never be particularly hygienic.


I like the fact that Pai is certified organic by the Soil Association – this gives me great comfort that the products are truly organic. All round the Pai Geranium Face Cream is a great product and from my experience I would try more of their range.
