Lavera Basis Sensitive 2in1 Cleansing Milk, old and new formulation {Review}

Hi beauties :)

As a student I have a new budget. Yeah but sometimes at the end of my money sometimes there's still so much months! So I sometimes switch to the cheaper version of a cleansing milk, Laveras basis sensitive cleansing milk.
It says it's a 2in1 product, makeup remover and cleanser. Isn't every cleanser also a makeup remover? 
Ok, this particular product is organic, but the ingredients aren't that amazing for me.

Full ingredient list OLD FORMULATION:

As you can see glycerin and alcohol are at the beginning of the list. And there's also Perfume in it. It's a cleanser, so I rinse it and it doesn't stay permanent on my skin, so I can bear a bit of alcohol. 

Consistency:
  • More like a cream than a milk
  • Yellow-white color
  • Typical lavera smell
  • Old formulation: oily, but not too oily and very good to rinse 
  • New formulation: extremly oily, doesn't give you a clean feeling afterwards, face has a oil film even after drying

Skin compatibility:
  • It's a bit drying 
  • No irritation, no breakouts
  • Old formulation: cleans, skin feels dry afterwards, but it's totally bearable 
  • New formulation: doesn't clean the skin, even with the clarisonic

Packaging:
  • In a white tube

Fazit:
  • Old formulation was ok, was a good substitute for my usually pricey cleanser
  • Could never use more than one tube, cause too drying
  • 6/10
  • New formulation is horrible
  • Just smears the dirt around, doesn't clean skin
  • Can't rinse it, can't take it completely off with a cloth
  • 1/10
