It's a gentle, yet effective cleanser. There's a strange smell but I think it's only because I have a very sensitive nose (smells slightly like a plastic/chemical/herbal smell to me). Overall, this cleanser does its job and my skin feels fresh and clean after every wash.
I've been looking for a good ph level cleanser for my morning skincare routine, and I have definitely found it. This cleanser is extremely gentle on my skin, but ensures I'm squeaky clean. It doesn't leave the face feeling dried out, or too oily. It works well with my combination-oily skin, and I really like the fact that it leaves me skin feeling soft and refreshed. I also really like the gel consistency of the product. Will definitely repurchase!
Let me tell you, I love this cleanser! I was looking for a cleanser that would be great for AM cleansing and that was SLS + alcohol free. This is great! The smell takes some getting used to but after awhile you get beyond it.
I love this face wash for the AM, Skin feels clean without feeling like it takes away all the hydration i worked on over night with my sleeping packs.
