Broke me out horribly
This product gave me big red patches on my face that i’ve never had before. I have very sensitive skin and nothing has irritated me like this. Upon seeing ingredients I think it might have been an allergy to the sage essential oil ingredient. It’s great as a body wash though! It cleared the acne on my back :v
great cleanser, very gentle foam, be cautious if you are sensitive to essential oils, not only it has sage oil, the mugwort extract it uses is also full of EO's. it has great anti-inflammatory anti-bacterial properties tho.
