The first time I used it was on August 28, and now it's the best thing I have. It removed my acne from my face. I use it daily during the daytime and nighttime. My skin is combination to normal, and it doesn't dry out my skin 10/10
For me, it was a gentle cleanser that felt it didn’t cleanse my skin enough, also it didn’t work with My La roche-posay effaclar matt moisturizer (I’ve been using almost a year) either made my skin feel more dry or oily.

as someone with eczema extremely dry sensitive skin this product is the only cleanser that worked for me that didn’t break me out but i recently found out that I’ve developed fungal acne idk if this is safe to use for it regardless it doesn’t aggravate it or make it worse so i’d recommend it
Prefiero el la otra presentación. Luego de lavar mi cara siento la piel seca y estirada teniendo piel mixta.
