I really like this product. A little goes a long way, I barely need one pump to cleanse my face. It is easy to wash off and it feels so lovely and soft. I have noticed it has started to bring some of the blackheads I have had difficulty getting rid of up and out. I am not sure if it has visibly reduced them but I have only been using it a week. And I feel that if I keep using it regularly it will prevent the majority from coming back. I have definitely noticed that it has reduced how oily my skin is by the end of the day which is a definite bonus as my skin is really oily. The only negative I can think of is that I got some dry patches of skin over my face the first few days but that has cleared up.
All in all I am going to keep using this. It is one of the first products in a long while that has made a noticeable difference to the oily shine I get as well as helping me get out some of the more stubborn blackheads.
I really enjoy this product. I love love love the pump bottle, it has a permenent spot in my shower and is so easy, 1 pump is all you need. Its not a scary black like charcoal but more a black tinted gel, it foams nicely and feels "active" when rubbing on your face. There is a light tingle which I like because it feels like it's working. It also clears off makeup fantastically. Has it cleared up my black heads? That's hard to tell, but it definitely hasn't made them worse. My skin feels cleaner, and it really gets stuck into the oils my skin likes to produce in abundance, almost like it's been toned aswell so I have been skipping the witch hazel. I also note it has calmed down my spots, they are less inflamed and go away faster. There is a strong peppermint/menthol smell which might explain the tingling, its not at all unpleasant. I will purchase this again when I've finished this bottle, I really enjoy the ease of use and feeling of my skin.
Tips: Avoid contact with nostrils and eyes, burn baby burn. Great for use in the shower!
