I like the gel like consistency of this cleanser. However I found this product to be to stripping on my skin. It definitely exfoliates and helps to clear up your skin. I prefer a more gentle cleanser. I ended up finishing up the bottle by using it as a body wash.

Literally the best thing in the world. My skin was horrifying and clogged b4 and with this when I double cleanse my skin glows and literally feels like a baby’s skins
I have sensitive acne-prone skin and was always hesitant to go with anything that has salicylic acid until I tried this! Super gentle and non-irritating at all. Drying? Yes, but apply a moisturizer and you’ll be good.
After using this cleanser for over a month I can truly say it is very drying. Although it is very drying I’m going to continue to use it because it is the only few cleansers I have used where it combats FL hard water that refuse to let other cleansers to work. In order to use this product because it does clear clogged pores. You need to use a hydrating toner and hyluronic acid and a moisturizing lotion
After using this product (only for two days) my pores have already made SO much progress. I used to be so insecure about my large pores but this cleanser really cleans them out. Before and after photo is attached
leave your skin very clean without drying . I been using for a while and see is one pf the beat product i try for cleanser.
I have been experiencing closed comedones for nearly my entire life, but nothing compares to the amount I have now after using this cleanser for a month!! It has nearly every pore in my face clogged.
I genuinely love this cleanser. I have had cleanser’s that burn, itch and leave my face so red…but this! While it leaves my face smooth and soft, I will admit that it does not remove all makeup residue. It has significantly improved my skin.
I would not recommend this product if you have sensitive skin or have never tried salicylic acid, because it damaged my skin barrier to. I have closed comedones, and have had success with salicylic acid before. But after 4 weeks of using this product my face started turning bright red after washing it, and my face stung. After removing this product from my routine I only have a few red spots on my face
This cleanser does not remove make up as it claims to. I was only using it in the mornings. I just realized that it contains oil. No wonder why my skin has been breaking out! Do not buy this if you are trying to reduce your acne.
