Yaz from PRIMPED raved about products from The Jojoba Company a while back, and that was how I heard of the brand. When I was given the opportunity to trial a range of their products, I jumped at the chance to see what the fuss was all about. First on the list to review would be the Gentle Cleansing Balm.

First impression of the cleanser? It’s a thick cream that smells a little like oranges. Some told me they smelled lemons, grapefruits, etc. It’s a citrusy scent, let’s put it at that 🙂
