holy shit this ruined my skin barrier :( because of the alcohol. this is why i hate reformulation
I LOVE THIS CLEANSER SO MUCH 😽
Even though i have a sensitive skin and was afraid it would be too strong because of some ingredients and on top of that with the little chunks inside but as soon as you foam it well, it is perfect
I would not recommend it for dry skin though but even if you have a combo skin as soon as you hydrate your skin correctly after you gonna love it!
I NEED TO RESTOCK

It's very gentle with tiny exfoliating granules, but not like sugar, they just melt away with the cleanser. Has a nice light earthy scent and the texture is pleasant and calming on the skin. It does very well at cleansing away skin oils, but I wouldn't recommend it to take off makeup, more like a second lighter cleanser.
