Based on the reviews below and not being happy with exfoliators I've tried I decided to give this one a go and I'm so pleased I did.
The hard part about this cleanser is judging how much you need to use as you put a dollop on your finger tips and start massaging it around your face thinking "I'm going to need to add more" when in fact you do have enough, you just need to let it spread around.
A previous reviewer said they left it on for a few minutes in the shower and then washed it off. So glad I read that because I tried it and was so impressed by the look and feel of my skin afterward that I now do that every night and I look forward to feeling my skin after it's washed off.
When I purchased the product the SA said that it's even gentle enough to use around the eye area and is great at removing eye makeup. Glad I followed her advice too because she was spot on!
I have not had any breakouts from this product (which is amazing because I react to almost anything) and I've found that some old acne scarring is starting to fade nicely. It doesn't leave behind any residue once it's washed off and it really does remove makeup! It also doesn't make my face oily.
It doesn't foam and it's not exactly a cream but it is incredibly spreadable with a splash of water on your face before you apply the cleanser.
It is quite pricey so always try to use the smallest amount you think you can get away with.
I tried this cleanser out and loved it. I wanted an exfoliating cleanser that would be gentle enough to use daily. I honestly expected it to just freshen up my skin you know like after you exfoliate but I found a couple weeks after using the cleanser the fine horizontal lines on my forehead were a bit finer, since nothing had changed in my beauty routine. I figured it must have been this cleanser and that's the point at which it exceeded my expectations. It's very reasonably priced so I will be using this cleanser every night until I find a better product to replace it.
Tips: I like to use a cream cleanser to get off any makeup while I'm in the shower and then I massage this on my face and leave it for a couple minutes before rinsing it off. This is great for exfoliating if you currently have pimples as it doesn't scrape of the top off and irritate it.
