Natio Cleansing Milk Honest Review: Texture, Ingredients and perfomance Compared
NATIO Cleansing Milk Comparison: Clam Delicate Car vs Aromatherapy Silky Soft

The reason why I chose this item:
I reviewed the Natio Calm Delicate Care Cleansing Milk before (please refer to this link for that product; I’ll refer to it as the first product from now on in this post). When I bought the Calm Delicate Care Cleansing Milk, I picked up this one as well since it was on sale.
I usually don’t wear heavy eye makeup, so I don’t use a separate eye and lip remover. I typically use cleansing milk or lotion as my primary cleanser, followed by a foam cleanser.

Similarities and differences: Natio Calm Delicate Care vs Natio Aromatherapy Silky Cleanser
Compared to the first product, it has a thicker and richer texture. However, It’s not too runny or overly thick — it spreads smoothly across the skin. After application, it doesn’t feel sticky or heavy. As the name suggests, it leaves a silky and soft finish.
However, it shares the same issue as the first product. After massaging for 30–40 seconds, it starts to dry up and get absorbed into the skin — just like I mentioned in my previous review. According to the instructions, it should be wiped off with a soft cloth, but in reality, it’s almost fully absorbed into the skin, leaving little to remove.
Since this is a cleansing product (not skincare), it’s meant to be removed from the skin. I’m not sure it's ideal for makeup residues to be absorbed into the skin rather than wiped away.

About the product: Nation Silky Soft Cleansing Milk
Cleansing ingredients & performance:
The main surfactants in this product are Cetearyl Glucoside and Polysorbate 60, both of which are nonionic, mild, and low-irritation surfactants. It does not contain stronger, more aggressive surfactants like Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES), or Ammonium Lauryl/Laureth Sulfate.
That makes it suitable for daily use on sensitive or dry skin. However, because it uses relatively mild surfactants, its cleansing power may not be enough for heavy lip or eye makeup. If you do wear heavier makeup, I’d recommend using a dedicated eye and lip remover first.Fragrance sensitivity:
Although this product is gentle in terms of surfactants, it’s not fragrance-free. It has a relatively strong floral scent, as it contains Ylang Ylang, Lavender, and Lemon essential oils. If you have sensitive skin, I suggest doing a patch test first. Even if your skin reacts well, it’s still best to avoid the eye area due to the fragrance components.
Interestingly, when I used the first product, which was fragrance- and oil-free, and contained Decyl Glucoside and Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate (SLSi) — both known to be mild and low-irritation — I still occasionally felt stinging when applying it too close to my eyes.
PH test:
The pH test result shows a pH level close to 6, which is slightly acidic and ideal for a cleansing product.
Personal Opinion
: Which product might be better for you?
After using both products, I found they share the same downside — they eventually get absorbed into the skin rather than fully wiping off. This issue made me concerned that makeup might remain on the skin rather than being effectively removed. Setting that aside, both have a pleasant texture and use mild surfactants.
So, the choice depends on personal preference. If you’re looking for a product with a stronger scent, the Aromatherapy Silky Soft Cleansing Milk may be better for you. On the other hand, if you prefer something more suitable for sensitive skin with no added fragrance, the Calm Delicate Care Cleansing Milk would be a better fit.
