MADE MY SKIN WORSE
ok i'm gonna start this off by saying everyone's skin is different and there's not a product that's gonna work for everyone. personally my skin was bad but wasn't anything extreme. mainly just "maskne" but i decided i'd give this a shot since no face wash ever really works for me. usually worst case scenario the face wash simply doesn't work. but this one made my skin at least 3x worse. i didn't change a thing in my skin care routine. just this product. i thought "hm maybe i'll stop using it and see if that's what the problem is" and poof my skin started clearing up again and now it looks pretty good and all i do is wash it with a dab of shampoo. i'm not bashing this product because a lot of the people reviewing it seem like it actually helped them but for myself it was awful and it's really pricey too especially since it did absolutely nothing but made my acne worse.

great for mature skin
This cleanser is incredible for mature skin that fights with large pores and excessive oil production. It had my issues under control in two weeks. Make sure you use a good moisturizer alongside it and sunscreen

Amazing Product!
I get really bad acne and see a dermatologist for it, but once I found this product I didn’t have to use prescription medication anymore. I swear by this Acne Clearing Wash! Within a couple days of getting it my face was cleared up and it continues to keep my face cleared up!
