BEAUTREE PLA Bubble Exfoliating Cleansing Pads

BEAUTREE’s PLA Bubble Pads are a natural and earth-friendly 5-in-1 solution for cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing, brightening, and soothing the skin. PLA stands for Polylactic Acid, which is the bioplastic the pads are made from, and it’s created from 100% renewable and non-GMO corn starch. Furthermore, it’s completely compostable, so the environmental impact is minimized through the entire life cycle of each pad.

They key superfood ingredients that combine to give the pads their cleansing benefits are blueberry, oatmeal, and moringa extracts. Blueberry is a potent antioxidant and conditioner, oatmeal soaks up oils and acts as an anti-inflammatory, while moringa leaf has significant anti-aging benefits. In addition to using only eco-friendly ingredients, they’re scent-free and BEAUTREE has also completed extensive testing to ensure there’s no risk of skin irritation.

The pads are provided dry, and only require a small amount of water to activate, so they’re really convenient to store and easily portable as well despite the somewhat large container. I really appreciate the integrated pocket in each pad, which made it easy to use both sides of the pad without wasting any product on my hands. 

I had no problem working the soft side of the pad into a bubbly lather, and it definitely cleaned up my face and neck very well. I love the exfoliating side as well, as it’s easy to vary the effect by changing the pressure applied and it seems to work great for targeting the neck and decolletage areas. 

Overall, it left my skin feeling softer, gently exfoliated, clean, not dried stripped of oils. If necessary, I also think it’d be no problem to rinse them off and add some of your own cleanser if you need a bit more to finish up during your skincare routine. 

However, I did find that it’s not sufficient on its own when cleansing from a full face of makeup; you’ll almost certainly want to double-cleanse and bring the pad in after makeup removal.

All that said, BEAUTREE Cleansing Pads are very safe and effective, and the exfoliation is light enough that you could use them on a daily basis. I highly recommend them if you’re on the lookout for natural and environmentally conscious cleansers! Also, check out their BEAUTREE Blemish Calming Treatment Pads made with different ingredients like eggplant, broccoli and tomato to help combat acne!

Batiste Waterless Cleansing Foam / Cleanse + Hydrate with Cactus Water


Non-wash day? No worries! Batiste Waterless Cleansing Foam makes it easy to refresh your locks! The Cleanse + Hydrate with Cactus Water is just one of four new cleansing foams. This particular version contains Optunia Ficus-Indica Flower Extract, also known as the Prickly Pear Cactus, which is packed with antioxidants, polyunsaturated fatty acids and amino acids that all help to replenish and moisturize hair.


Batiste is known for their beloved Dry Shampoo, so I was super excited to try this, however, I couldn’t get it to work for me in the expected way. My roots are extremely oily, even with second day hair, so it takes a good dry shampoo to help to combat it. Sometimes I can get away with a good dry shampoo, but this cleansing foam sounded like a miracle treatment for my overly oily hair.


I did exactly as advised: shake well, dispense onto hand, massage into dry hair until absorbed and wait 60 seconds to dry. It instantly weighed down my roots and made them more oily, with worse texture and appearance. It took my just slightly oily roots to over-the-top wet and dirty looking. I experienced no “cleansing” action and was thoroughly disappointed in that regard.



On the other hand, I was able to repurpose it to refresh the mid to end portion of my blonde hair. This section is typically dry and frizzy the next day, so I was able to work in Waterless Cleansing Foam to help nourish and re-hydrate. I personally like to dispense the foam and work from the middle down. I also used a wetted brush to work through and get instant revival, but this step could be skipped if need be.


I will add that this cleansing foam smells amazing, which is another benefit to adding to second day hair (just not my roots)! This product is free of phthalates, sulfates, dyes and parabens. I also saw no white cast on my dark roots.


So unfortunately, I couldn’t get this to work the way it was intended and will stick to using dry shampoo. My hair type is medium thickness with natural dark roots with dyed blonde for the majority of my hair. I think my troubles could be because the ingredients add shine, which just doesn’t work with my hair type, but it just may work if your hair is not so oily.
