MyChelle Dermaceuticals products are becoming very near and dear to my heart lately. With every new product I try, I find myself completely enamoured with them! (And that’s kind of impressive since skincare doesn’t exactly evoke a ton of enthusiasm from me.) I tried out their Sugar Refining Cleanser back in August, and as the seasons changed, I asked the brand if I could try out some seasonally appropriate items – so today’s post is going to cover some of their pumpkin and cranberry offerings!

The first thing I reached for were the cranberry items because my skin was breaking out a little bit (kind of an odd thing for me to be honest) and these two products are aimed towards oily, blemished skin. The Clear Skin Cranberry Cleanser is a natural exfoliating, pore-clearing cleanser which helps balance out the skin by deeply cleaning your clogged pores of impurities, oils and irritants. Honestly, reading the info sheet is impressive: it contains willow bark extract which is a natural source of exfoliating salicyclic acid to help clear acne-causing bacteria and provide anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-irritant, antioxidant, anti-microbial and anti-viral benefits. And the list goes on… lilac stem cells to inhibit acne, aloesin to reduce inflammation and hyperpigmentation, etc. etc.

My take? This is a wonderfully refreshing cleanser. It comes out of the bottle clear (you’re encouraged to shake it before use) and it smells deliciously sour and bite-y. It feels wonderful on my skin and I did get some sense that it was working to get rid of oil in some of the areas I was struggling with – particularly along my jawline.

The Clear Skin Cranberry line also has a Mud Mask. The mud mask contains Kaolin and Bentonite clays to absorb excess oil and debris from your pores. It can be used 1-2 times per week, so it’s not too rough on your skin as it claims to soothe irritations. As I’m reading the information sheet while writing this review, something is clicking for me… when I first used this mud mask, I had a sense that it felt very similar to the ones that I had used at the Blue Lagoon in Iceland and I think that may be because this mud mask contains clay and sulfur (which is found in all hot water in Iceland in noticeable quantities). Sulfur has anti-microbial, anti-fungal and antiseptic properties to treat bacteria-related problematic skin conditions. I was really happy with this mud mask: it was quick and easy to use (dried down within ten minutes) and my skin felt revitalized after use.

Despite reaching for the cranberry products first, the ones I was REALLY excited to try were the pumpkin ones! The Creamy Pumpkin Cleanser is intended for dry skin – it’ll wash away surface impurities while restoring your skin’s moisture balance. The vitamins and exfoliating enzymes from the pumpkin fruit and honey will refine and smooth your complexion. And it is GLORIOUS. The scent of the pumpkin mixed with the cinnamon and nutmeg in the ingredient deck make this a perfect treat for your skin on cool autumnal days. There’s also a bit of lime in there which adds a zesty, almost carbonated, scent to the product. Really, really in love with this cleanser!

The last item in this post (and the last item I actually tried out as well) is the Incredible Pumpkin Peel. Like the cleanser, this mask has a pumpkin blend that exfoliates dead skin cells to clear away impurities. It’s intended for normal skin and can be used 1-2 times per week. The mask does advise you may feel a slightly tingling on your skin as you use it – and I did! Some of you may know from my past skincare reviews that I really like to *feel* something happening with masks, and this one delivers! It tingled slightly when I had it on my skin for the 5 minutes or so and then when I wiped it off I was left with tighter feeling skin – as if it was firmer. Plus.. it smells like pumpkin goodness!
