I don't recommend this product to someone who have sensitive skin. The internet says that this product gives you a glass skin? That is not true.. to be honest. Please do not use this.

Bought this as a no frills, gentle cleanser that I can use when my skin is in terrible condition. No breakouts, has a faint nice smell, and has generally improved my skin condition. While I do like using the salicylic cleanser and it is still nice to use everyday, this is a safer pick as I know my skin will never get dry from it.
