Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

It does such a great job as getting rid of whiteheads even from the first use after rubbing it on dry face for 60 seconds and rise it with warm water.
The only problem is that it has a bunch of pore clogging ingredients that might trigger acne, but using it once every time i get whiteheads on my nose had been working perfectly fine for me.
Overall, i don’t like double cleansing at all and i find Show more

A popular Japanese unscented cleansing oil that has excellent value. Perfect for beginners and those who use light make-up, or just a sunscreen during the day. Since it's cheap, you can use it deliberately without thinking too much about it.
