It's a gentle gel-cleanser that is suitable to any skin-type but better on oily skin due to it's texture. It's very basic in this regard and that's not a bad thing. It doesn't target any skin concern specifically so if that's what you're after, I wouldn't recommend this product but I'd use it as a "shower cleanser" or something you would use on the morning or in the middle of the day. Especially if you don't want to dry out your skin too much when using other AHA's and BHA's.

I want to see the good in this product but to be fair, I have little to say about this product and how it performs because I stopped using after two uses.😭 I was looking for a cheap, fungal acne safe cleanser to use but unfortunately, the smell was so bad I couldn’t continue use. Usually im not sensitive to smells but this was just such a strong chemical scent that I couldn’t keep using it. As far as how well it cleanses my skin and such, I don’t know, I didn’t use it long enough to write a full review on the product.
