A mild fairly gentle cleanser
I love that you can see bits of mugwort in the cleanser. There are lots of good natural ingredients in this and I really like how foamy it gets with just a small amount. It feels really good on the skin and doesn't have much of a smell.
This cleanser works well for me in the summer months when my skin tends to be oiler. It is a little too drying on sensitive combination skin to be using in the cold winter months. I will definitely reincorporate this cleanser into my routine when the weather warms up again.
