i really wanted to love it :(
this oil cleanser just doesn’t work for my skin. it breaks me out when i try and use it. i’m sure some other people would enjoy this but it’s just not for my skin. 😕
(this has a tropical-ish fruity smell which i enjoy)

Absolutely do not like. I can almost use battery acid on my face and not be bothered (not sensitive) but something in this my skin did NOT like. My cheeks ended up irritated, itchy with a bunch of tiny bumps all over. Thankfully it only lasted a night, but I stopped using it after that and havent had an issue since.
