1. Wet your hands and the facial cleansing pod.
2. Rub the pod between your palms to create a light lather. Only a small amount is needed.
3. Gently massage the lather over damp facial skin to cleanse and remove makeup.
4. Rinse thoroughly with water, using a soft, wet cloth if desired.
5. Allow the pod to dry between uses and store it in a dry area.

This was a great informative course with an explanation for every ingredient. The facial cleansing pods are amazing and don’t make your face feel dry after use! I really enjoyed taking this course, thank you for all you do, all the time you’ve put into these courses too. I highly recommend taking any of Joans courses any chance you get!!

These facial cleansing pods are excellent for the skin. This is the perfect formula for those with sensitive skin and I love that it is travel friendly. It lathers well and it isn’t drying or stripping. I wear a lot of eye makeup occasionally and it does a great job removing it. Joan goes through each ingredient and its function in the formula, shows how to test the pH and provides you with a list of global suppliers. All of her classes are very well structured and easy to follow.

Previous to take the Lab Class “Facial Cleansing Pods”, I was using a gently skin cleanser (liquid) for sensitive/acne skin difficult to find and expensive. As immediate action, I made facial cleansing pods for my skin, and they really cleanse my face and neck gently without getting acne breakout. Also, these cleansing pods have the optimal hardness!!!
Joan Morais easily explains how to choose the ingredients. I made slight changes to customize the facial cleansing pod for my sister with combination/very sensitive skin. I sent her some samples for 2 weeks and they removed the makeup and cleansed her face… Her skin accepted the product!!! Also, the skin of her 5 years old son (my nephew) with sensitive skin, accepted the cleansing pods (my nephew found the samples and used them to take a shower). My nephew just wants the sample size version; my sister and I are using the facial cleansing pods with same or better results in comparison with the cleanser that my sister and I used 6 months ago.
Just I do for personal use and family… everybody can do it for personal use or for sale. No more face cleanser ridiculously expensive and difficult to find.

These pods are amazing to remove makeup and cleanse! Joan is a prodigy at formulating. She perfects all her products and makes sure she explains every “why and how” so you can feel confident making your product. Joan makes sure you go from not knowing anything to launching your product. No more wasting time and money buying skincare when you can do it yourself and with the best ingredients for your skin. I can’t wait to keep taking all her classes!
