Nice lather and cleans my skin but leaves it feeling soft.
Good product but very stripping! Definitely makes you feel clean though lol
First Aid Beauty Pure Skin Face Cleanser 27 ingredients
my favourite cleanser, so underrated! i got this for the first time in 2020 after loving the first aid beauty moisturisers, and have went back to it ever since
if i found out about it now i probably wouldn’t buy it due to the ingredients, it has a high amount of stearic acid and stearyl alcohol- i have very intolerant skin and am wary of certain ingredients even in cleansers but this is Show more
irritates my skin, potentially overstrips it
