ive been using this cleanser for a week and so far, its working well for me. at first, i hesitated because of the mixed reviews i saw online, but im glad i tried it. its reduced the sebaceous filaments on my chin, though it hasnt fully cleared the blackheads on my nose. maybe with more time, it will, or it might just not be meant for that.
after each use, my skin feels soft and clean. its also Show more

teenage skin isn’t always oily!
used this because i assumed i, as a teenager, must need a cleanser for acne prone skin but no! leaves my skin tight and stripped! not what i need. feels like alcohol on my face.
great option for oily skin types, much more gentle and soothing than other acne cleansers (e.g. viral La Roche Posay Effaclar cleanser -extremely stripping on skin)
Tip!: After cleansing, apply serums/moisturiser while skin is damp to prevent dry/tightness 🤍
